aabdc00e8c net/: Fix some incorrect comments that go back for years (but have also been cloned in newer files). The network was once interrupt driver, but now runs on the work queue with a semaphore to enforce mutual exclusion. 2018-06-23 14:09:06 -06:00

a186383f2a Recent changes to UDP in order to correct problems with UDP connection mode introduced a new bug: The 'to' address passed to sendto() must now be NULL in connection mode. But there are errors because there was one place where the 'to' address was still being used.
This commit adds logic to first check for UDP connection mode.  If the UDP socket is connected, then the NULL 'to' address is ignored and saved connection address is used instead.

fb8cf9373c net/udp: Resolve race condition in connection-less UDP sockets with read-ahead buffering.
In connection-mode UDP sockets, a remote address is retained in the UDP connection structure.  This determines both there send() will send the packets and which packets recv() will accept.

This same mechanism is used for connection-less UDP sendto:  A temporary remote address is written into the connection structure to support the sendto() operation.  That address persists until the next recvfrom() when it is reset to accept any address.

When UDP read-ahead buffering is enabled, however, that means that the old, invalid remote address can be left in the connection structure for some time.  This can cause read-ahead buffer to fail, dropping UDP packets.

Shortening the time between when he remote address is reset (i.e., immediately after the sendto() completes) is not a solution, that does not eliminate the race condition; in only makes it smaller.

With this change, a flag was added to the connection structure to indicate if the UDP socket is in connection mode or if it is connection-less.  This change effects only UDP receive operations:  The remote address in the UDP connection is always ignored if the UDP socket is not in connection-mode.

No for connection-mode sockets, that remote address behaves as before.  But for connection-less sockets, it is only used by sendto().

091e3f732e net/udp: Fix several issues using connected UDP sockets: sendto() should not accept and address. Normally send() should be used instead. recvfrom() is no longer necessary. recvfrom() and poll() should not reset to accept any addresses but should, instead, only accept inputs and events from the connected remore peer. On of these issues was noted by 李桂丁 <liguiding@pinecone.net>. Changes were made as summarized here: http://www.masterraghu.com/subjects/np/introduction/unix_network_programming_v1.3/ch08lev1sec11.html 2018-04-25 08:43:38 -06:00

cccc86da09 This change adds support for semi-standard IPPROTO_ICMP AF_INET datagram sockets. This replaces the old ad hoc, nonstandard way of implementing ping with a more standard, socket interface.
Squashed commit of the following:

    net/icmp:  Finishes off icmp_recvfrom().
    net/icmp:  Add readahead support for IPPROTO_ICMP sockets.
    net/icmp:  Add poll() support for IPPROTO_ICMP sockets.
    net/icmp:  Add a connection structure for IPPROTO_ICMP sockets.
    net/icmp:  Implements sendto for the IPPROTO_ICMP socket.
    net/icmp:  Move icmp_sendto() and icmp_recvfrom() to separate files.  They are likely to be complex (when they are implemented).
    net/icmp:  Hook IPPROTO_ICMP sockets into network.  Fix some naming collisions.  Still missing basic ICMP send/receive logic.
    configs: apps/system/ping current need poll() enabled.
    configs: All defconfig files that use to enable low-level support must now enabled CONFIG_SYSTEM_PING.
    net/icmp:  Adds basic build framework to support IPPROTO_ICMP sockets.

42a0796615 Squashed commit of the following:
sched/semaphore:  Add nxsem_post() which is identical to sem_post() except that it never modifies the errno variable.  Changed all references to sem_post in the OS to nxsem_post().

    sched/semaphore:  Add nxsem_destroy() which is identical to sem_destroy() except that it never modifies the errno variable.  Changed all references to sem_destroy() in the OS to nxsem_destroy().

    libc/semaphore and sched/semaphore:  Add nxsem_getprotocol() and nxsem_setprotocola which are identical to sem_getprotocol() and set_setprotocol() except that they never modifies the errno variable.  Changed all references to sem_setprotocol in the OS to nxsem_setprotocol().  sem_getprotocol() was not used in the OS

83cdb0c552 Squashed commit of the following:
libc/semaphore:  Add nxsem_getvalue() which is identical to sem_getvalue() except that it never modifies the errno variable.  Changed all references to sem_getvalue in the OS to nxsem_getvalue().

    sched/semaphore:  Rename all internal private functions from sem_xyz to nxsem_xyz.  The sem_ prefix is (will be) reserved only for the application semaphore interfaces.

    libc/semaphore:  Add nxsem_init() which is identical to sem_init() except that it never modifies the errno variable.  Changed all references to sem_init in the OS to nxsem_init().

    sched/semaphore:  Rename sem_tickwait() to nxsem_tickwait() so that it is clear this is an internal OS function.

    sched/semaphoate:  Rename sem_reset() to nxsem_reset() so that it is clear this is an internal OS function.

04ad162540 Networking: Clean up some naming that has bothered me for a long time... There are no interrupts and no interrupt handlers in the network. There are events and event handler (there used to to be interrupt logic in there years ago but that is long, long gone). 2017-08-29 14:08:04 -06:00
