This is based on pending series by David, but they're logically separated
fixes, so I'm sending them as a different series.
Patch 2/2 adds some 'sleep 1' commands that were previously missing, which
actually goes against the intention of speeding up those tests. However,
without those, a number of tests fail quite frequently due to races
between starting server and client, and I could never get a clean run
with the new command dispatch mechanism otherwise.
We can probably find a more elegant (and time-saving) mechanism to
make sure the server is ready (based e.g. on parsing its output), but
at the moment I'm just trying to make the test suite work again for
me in its entirety.

I think the reason is that with: echo "nsenter $@ sh -c" > "${__enter}" you get a different behaviour than nsenter with an interactive shell (previous implementation). For example, on Debian, commands (by default) will run with dash instead of bash. In any case, just using 'which sysctl' looks wrong to me, and that can break for many other reasons, so I don't feel very inclined in digging into the actual reason and differences between environments here. -- Stefano ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 14+ messages in thread

However, those don't cover all the cases where we might need them, and in some cases the sleep command actually ended up being before the server even starts. This fixes occasional failures in TCP and UDP simple transfer tests, that became apparent with the new command dispatch mechanism.

I used sleep 0.1 though, to avoid taking so long, which seems to be sufficient in practice. I did look for a proper way to wait for the socat server to be ready, but I couldn't find anything workable. I thought I could retry on the client side, but that doesn't work (at least for host to guest connections) because passt is always listening on the forwarded ports, so the client won't see a connection refused from the actual server. I don't think there's any sane way to propagate connection refused in that way, although we could and probably should forward connection resets outwards. Btw, I've also been doing a bunch of work on the static checks - with some different options I've brought the runtime of make cppcheck from ~40 minutes down to ~40 seconds :). > --- >

They should be already, and (manual) retries actually worked for me, but it looks like added complexity. Before even checking the connection state, tcp_tap_handler() checks for the RST flag: if (th->rst) { conn_event(c, conn, CLOSED); return p->count; } and this will abruptly close the originating socket, which implies a RST, on Linux.

Whoa, 40 minutes? For me it was never more than a couple of minutes, see https://passt.top/passt/about/#continuous-integration, "build/static_checkers".

Right, I found that... but I'm not sure it is sending an RST. Setting SO_LINGER with zero timeout does send an RST, but I'm not sure it does so without it. Even if it does, it's not really helpful for this. I found that sending an RST doesn't reliably cause the client socat to exit with failure. I'm not 100% sure what's going on, but I think what can happen is that the client sends everything and completes before the RST arrives, because it all gets buffered before in passt (or at least in the kernel socket buffers associated with passt). In that case the client doesn't detect the error. > We don't send out ICMP or ICMPv6 messages, even if the guest > additionally replied with one, because we can't ("ping" sockets are > just for that -- echoes).

I wonder if it's because it simply isn't finding all the system headers for you. I see you have a missingIncludeSystem suppression in there, and when I removed that I found it complained about not finding the headers on Debian until I added -I/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu. Anyway, I have patches that fix this which I'll be sending soon. In any case, since the run time will be exponential in the number of config defines, it doesn't take a huge difference in the headers to make a vast difference to runtime. I also found that both clang-tidy and cppcheck fail for me, I have a bunch of fixes for this, but I'm not finished yet. There's a couple of tricky ones, including one with dueling errors - cppcheck says there's a redundant NULL check, but if I remove it clang-tidy says there's a NULL pointer dereference.

I was watching the text execution, then as I saw the socat server process getting stuck, I just re-run the client with ssh -F ... with the original command, and that worked for me every time. So, the behaviour I'm inferring is: - server not listening, no retry option: connect() goes through, but anything else will get ECONNRESET (RST from passt), plus there should be EPOLLERR if socat checks that: client exits - server not listening, retry option: client exits without retry because it doesn't get ECONNREFUSED ...I guess a cleaner behaviour on passt's side would be to delay the accept() (that's in tcp_conn_from_sock()) until we get SYN, ACK from the guest. But: - we can't send a RST if we don't accept(), as we have no socket to close(). Maybe we could close and reopen the listening socket...? We need to be a bit careful about not turning that into a vector for DoS, though - we can't send ICMP/ICMPv6 messages ...so we risk a connect() timeout, which is even less desirable. In case the connection goes through, though... I actually tried in the past to wait before we accept(), and it was increasing latency (of course), so I discarded that approach, because I couldn't think of any practical case. But here we are, so perhaps this behaviour should be there, at least as an option (maybe even as default). > > but it looks like added complexity.

Ah, yeah, I'd expect that to work.

We *eventually* get an ECONNRESET, but it seems like we can send some data before it happens - sometimes quite a lot. I'm assuming this is because quite a lot can fit into socket buffers before the RST makes its way back. > - server not listening, retry option: client exits without retry because > it doesn't get ECONNREFUSED Right. > ...I guess a cleaner behaviour on passt's side would be to delay the > accept() (that's in tcp_conn_from_sock()) until we get SYN, ACK from > the guest. But: I thought about that, but I don't think its workable. For starters, I don't think there's a way of explicitly refusing a connection from userspace. Not accept()ing, then closing and re-opening the listening socket *might* do it. But.. more fundamentally, due to the connection backlog, I think by the time we get the notification in userspace, the kernel has probably already completed the TCP handshake, so it's too late to signal a connection refused to the client. > - we can't send a RST if we don't accept(), as we have no socket to > close().

Huh, odd. I'm using cppcheck 2.7 most of the time (the one packaged in Fedora 36). I also tried cppcheck 2.9 on Debian which gets some additional errors.

Well, yes, it might simply be that socat relies on ECONNRESET from send(), and the first send()-like call includes the full buffer.

Oops, right, listen() by itself already warrants a handshake, so I guess there's no point in trying if we can't ensure a given behaviour. In real-world applications: - the user forwards a set of ports because they expect a server to be reachable on those ports, fine - or all ports are forwarded (this is the case of KubeVirt) so that the user doesn't have to configure them. In that case, we can always have handshake, client sending data, and receiving a RST before any of it is acknowledged -- this is guaranteed by passt as it won't dequeue data from buffers before the real server accepted the connection ...the only alternatives I see sound a lot like a port scan, which is definitely not desirable. I guess we just have to... accept this behaviour. The important fact, I think, is that we don't acknowledge data. Whether closing and re-opening the listening socket causes ICMP messages to be sent: from kernel code I'd say it's not the case, but it might be worth an actual test, as that would be a marginal improvement. -- Stefano ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 14+ messages in thread

As far as I remember, for the first segment the condition __tcp_select_window(sk) >= tp->rcv_wnd in __tcp_ack_snd_check(), net/ipv4/tcp_input.c, should be false, and if more data is sent and we don't dequeue it, the window doesn't advance, so the first ACK _should_ be deferred to the first tcp_recvmsg(). However, this is a bit vague now in my memory. I guess we should double check this (by delaying the first recvmsg() in passt and comparing with captures), and also what happens if we defer the accept() to after the connection is established guest-side. > > ...the only alternatives I see sound a lot like a port scan, which is > > definitely not desirable. > > Right. > > > I guess we just have to... accept this behaviour. > > Yeah, I think so. > > > The important fact, I > > think, is that we don't acknowledge data. > > > > Whether closing and re-opening the listening socket causes ICMP > > messages to be sent: from kernel code I'd say it's not the case, but it > > might be worth an actual test, as that would be a marginal improvement. > > Ok.

Hmm... for UDP, ICMP type 3 code 3 (port unreachable) and ICMPv6 type 1 code 3 (also port unreachable) are sent by the kernel to the source address of the SYN segment if there's no corresponding socket. For TCP, they could legitimately be sent ("may", in RFC 792), but now that I think about it, I can't recall the kernel doing it... unless netfilter is explicitly configured to do so. So this is probably irrelevant (also perhaps worth a quick check anyway). -- Stefano ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 14+ messages in thread
