[ Upstream commit 1d4adfaf65746203861c72d9d78de349eb97d528 ]
Fix rxrpc_kernel_get_srtt() to indicate the validity of the returned
smoothed RTT. If we haven't had any valid samples yet, the SRTT isn't
useful.

commit c410bf01933e5e09d142c66c3df9ad470a7eec13 upstream.
rxrpc currently uses a fixed 4s retransmission timeout until the RTT is
sufficiently sampled. This can cause problems with some fileservers with
calls to the cache manager in the afs filesystem being dropped from the
fileserver because a packet goes missing and the retransmission timeout is
greater than the call expiry timeout.
Fix this by:
(1) Copying the RTT/RTO calculation code from Linux's TCP implementation
and altering it to fit rxrpc.
(2) Altering the various users of the RTT to make use of the new SRTT
value.
(3) Replacing the use of rxrpc_resend_timeout to use the calculated RTO
value instead (which is needed in jiffies), along with a backoff.
Notes:
(1) rxrpc provides RTT samples by matching the serial numbers on outgoing
DATA packets that have the RXRPC_REQUEST_ACK set and PING ACK packets
against the reference serial number in incoming REQUESTED ACK and
PING-RESPONSE ACK packets.
(2) Each packet that is transmitted on an rxrpc connection gets a new
per-connection serial number, even for retransmissions, so an ACK can
be cross-referenced to a specific trigger packet. This allows RTT
information to be drawn from retransmitted DATA packets also.
(3) rxrpc maintains the RTT/RTO state on the rxrpc_peer record rather than
on an rxrpc_call because many RPC calls won't live long enough to
generate more than one sample.
(4) The calculated SRTT value is in units of 8ths of a microsecond rather
than nanoseconds.
The (S)RTT and RTO values are displayed in /proc/net/rxrpc/peers.

[ Upstream commit e138aa7d3271ac1b0690ae2c9b04d51468dce1d6 ]
Fix the interruptibility of kernel-initiated client calls so that they're
either only interruptible when they're waiting for a call slot to come
available or they're not interruptible at all. Either way, they're not
interruptible during transmission.
This should help prevent StoreData calls from being interrupted when
writeback is in progress. It doesn't, however, handle interruption during
the receive phase.
Userspace-initiated calls are still interruptable. After the signal has
been handled, sendmsg() will return the amount of data copied out of the
buffer and userspace can perform another sendmsg() call to continue
transmission.
