Subject: [PATCH] Refactor: various: Don't set cluster-layer node ID as XML ID
Currently, we call the pcmk__xe_set_id() function using a stringified
version of the numeric cluster-layer node ID. However, pcmk__xe_set_id()
tries to sanitize its input to a valid XML ID. An XML ID cannot begin
with a digit.
crm_xml_set_id() does not sanitize comprehensively, and in particular,
it does not care whether its argument begins with a digit. So the
current code doesn't cause a problem.
Still, as a best practice, set the PCMK_XA_ID attribute using
crm_xml_add_ll() instead.

Subject: [PATCH] Fix: tools: crm_node -i must initialize nodeid before passing
pointer
This is a regression introduced in 2.1.7 via a27f099.
Currently, crm_node -i passes a pointer to the uninitialized uint32_t
nodeid variable, to pcmk__query_node_info(). Since the pointer is
non-NULL, pcmk__query_node_info() dereferences it. Whatever garbage
value resides there gets passed as the ID to query.
The controller parses the node ID from the request as an int. If the
garbage value is greater than INT_MAX, it overflows to a negative int
value, and the controller (in handle_node_info_request()) defaults it to
0. In that case, there's no problem: we search for the local node name
instead of the garbage node ID.
If the garbage value is less than or equal to INT_MAX, we search for it
directly. We won't find a matching node unless one happens to exist with
that garbage node ID. In the case of no match, crm_node -i outputs "Node
is not known to cluster" instead of the local node's cluster-layer ID.
Thanks to Artur Novik for the report:

Subject: [PATCH 2/5] Med: scheduler: Don't always fence online remote nodes.
Let's assume you have a cluster configured as follows:
* Three nodes, plus one Pacemaker Remote node.
* At least two NICs on each node.
* Multiple layers of fencing, including fence_kdump.
* The timeout for fence_kdump is set higher on the real nodes than it is
on the remote node.
* A resource is configured that can only be run on the remote node.
Now, let's assume that the node running the connection resource for the
remote node is disconnect from the rest of the cluster. In testing,
this disconnection was done by bringing one network interface down.
Due to the fence timeouts, the following things will occur:
* The node whose interface was brought down will split off into its own
cluster partition without quorum, while the other two nodes maintain
quorum.
* The partition with quorum will restart the remote node resource on
another real node in the partition.
* The node by itself will be fenced. However, due to the long
fence_kdump timeout, it will continue to make decisions regarding
resources.
* The node by itself will re-assign resources, including the remote
connection resource. This resource will be assigned back to the same
node again.
* The node by itself will decide to fence the remote node, which will
hit the "in our membership" clause of pe_can_fence. This is because
remote nodes are marked as online when they are assigned, not when
they are actually running.
* When the fence_kdump timeout expires, the node by itself will fence
the remote node. This succeeds because there is still a secondary
network connection it can use. This fencing will succeed, causing the
remote node to reboot and then causing a loss of service.
* The node by itself will then be fenced.
The bug to me seems to be that the remote resource is marked as online
when it isn't yet. I think with that changed, all the other remote
fencing related code would then work as intended. However, it probably
has to remain as-is in order to schedule resources on the remote node -
resources probably can't be assigned to an offline node. Making changes
in pe_can_fence seems like the least invasive way to deal with this
problem.
I also think this probably has probably been here for a very long time -
perhaps always - but we just haven't seen it due to the number of things
that have to be configured before it can show up. In particular, the
fencing timeouts and secondary network connection are what allow this
behavior to happen.
I can't think of a good reason why a node without quorum would ever want
to fence a remote node, especially if the connection resource has been
moved to the quorate node.
My fix here therefore is just to test whether there is another node it
could have been moved to and if so, don't fence it.

Subject: [PATCH 3/5] Med: scheduler: Require a cluster option for new remote
fencing behavior.
We don't have a ton of confidence that the previous patch is the right
thing to do for everyone, so we are going to hide it behind this
undocumented cluster config option. By default, if the option is
missing (or is set to "true"), the existing remote fencing behavior will
be what happens. That is, a node without quorum will be allowed to
fence remote nodes in the same partition even if they've been restarted
elsewhere.
However, with fence-remote-without-quorum="false", we will check to see
if the remote node could possibly have been started on another node and
if so, it will not be fenced.

Subject: [PATCH 4/5] Feature: libcrmcommon: Be more lenient in evicting IPC
clients.
Each IPC connection has a message queue. If the client is unable to
process messages faster than the server is sending them, that queue
start to back up. pacemaker enforces a cap on the queue size, and
that's adjustable with the cluster-ipc-limit parameter. Once the queue
grows beyond that size, the client is assumed to be dead and is evicted
so it can be restarted and the queue resources freed.
However, it's possible that the client is not dead. On clusters with
very large numbers of resources (I've tried with 300, but fewer might
also cause problems), certain actions can happen that cause a spike in
IPC messages. In RHEL-76276, the action that causes this is moving
nodes in and out of standby. This spike in messages causes the server
to overwhelm the client, which is then evicted.
My multi-part IPC patches made this even worse, as now if the CIB is so
large that it needs to split an IPC message up, there will be more
messages than before.
What this fix does is get rid of the cap on the queue size for pacemaker
daemons. As long as the server has been able to send messages to the
client, the client is still doing work and shouldn't be evicted. It may
just be processing messages slower than the server is sending them.
Note that this could lead the queue to grow without bound, eventually
crashing the server. For this reason, we're only allowing pacemaker
daemons to ignore the queue size limit.
Potential problems with this approach:
* If the client is so busy that it can't receive even a single message
that crm_ipcs_flush_events tries to send, it will still be evicted.
However, the flush operation does retry with a delay several times
giving the client time to finish up what it's doing.
* We have timers all over the place with daemons waiting on replies.
It's possible that because we are no longer just evicting the clients,
we will now see those timers expire which will just lead to different
problems. If so, these fixes would probably need to take place in the
client code.

Subject: [PATCH] Med: daemons: Don't add repeated I_PE_CALC messages to the
fsa queue.
Let's say you have a two node cluster, node1 and node2. For purposes of
testing, it's easiest if you use fence_dummy instead of a real fencing
agent as this will fake fencing happen but without rebooting the node so
you can see all the log files.
Assume the DC is node1. Now do the following:
- pcs node standby node1
- pcs resource defaults update resource-stickiness=1
- for i in $(seq 1 300); do echo $i; pcs resource create dummy$i ocf:heartbeat:Dummy --group dummy-group; done
- pcs node unstandby node1
It will take a long time to create that many resources. After node1
comes out of standby, it'll take a minute or two but eventually you'll
see that node1 was fenced. On node1, you'll see a lot of transition
abort messages happen. Each of these transition aborts causes an
I_PE_CALC message to be generated and added to the fsa queue. In my
testing, I've seen the queue grow to ~ 600 messages, all of which are
exactly the same thing.
The FSA is triggered at G_PRIORITY_HIGH, and once it is triggered, it
will run until its queue is empty. With so many messages being added so
quickly, we've basically ensured it won't be empty any time soon. While
controld is processing the FSA messages, it will be unable to read
anything out of the IPC backlog.
based continues to attempt to send IPC events to controld but is unable
to do so, so the backlog continues to grow. Eventually, the backlog
reaches that 500 message threshold without anything having been read by
controld, which triggers the eviction process.
There doesn't seem to be any reason for all these I_PE_CALC messages to
be generated. They're all exactly the same, and they don't appear to be
tagged with any unique data tying them to a specific query, and their
presence just slows everything down.
Thus, the fix here is very simple: if the latest message in the queue is
an I_PE_CALC message, just don't add another one. We could also make
sure there's only ever one I_PE_CALC message in the queue, but there
could potentially be valid reasons for there to be multiple interleaved
with other message types. I am erring on the side of caution with this
minimal fix.

Subject: [PATCH 2/5] High: libcrmcommon: Fix integer overflow in remote
message code.
It's possible for a client to send a specifically constructed header
packet that will cause our size checks in pcmk__remote_message_xml to
overflow, which could result in crashes (potentially leading to a node
being fenced) or memory corruption problems.
Such a header would have to indicate that the payload is compressed,
which nothing in pacemaker is doing. In fact, we haven't used any of
the remote message compression code since it was introduced in 2013
which explains why we haven't seen any problems with it. Thus, it would
require a malicious client to cause this to happen.
It would also require remote CIB administration to be enabled via
remote-clear-port or remote-tls-port, which we do not do by default.
Additionally, if remote-tls-port is in use, it requires the client to
complete the gnutls handshake procedure (pcmk__remote_message_xml is
only called in cib_remote_msg after the handshake but before the client
has authenticated).

Subject: [PATCH 3/5] High: libcrmcommon: Limit the max size of a remote
message.
Previously, we were just taking the sizes straight from the message
header and allocating however much memory was asked for without
checking. It's possible for a malicious client to ask for a very large
amount of memory (say, 4 GB since that'll fit in the uint32_t value for
header->size_total).
In that case, due to the use of calloc, we'll crash due to an out of
memory error and the node could potentially be fenced.
The fix is to simply check that the client isn't asking for too much
memory. This does unfortunately impose a size restriction on the
message. It's doubly unfortunate given how much work we've recently put
into removing restrictions on IPC messages allowing for much larger
clusters.
I think the biggest thing these messages will ever contain is a CIB, so
for now I'm going with a limit of 20 MB. It is not my intention that
this become a tuneable parameter that is exposed to the user.

Subject: [PATCH 4/5] High: libcrmcommon: Fix an integer overflow in
pcmk__remote_send_xml.
iov[0].iov_len is a size_t. iov[1].iov_len is also a size_t (which
comes from the length of a string, which is a size_t). We're adding
those together and storing them in a uint32_t, so make sure the result
will fit.
Fixes RHEL-181155

Subject: [PATCH 5/5] Med: libcrmcommon: Add additional checks to
pcmk__remote_message_xml.
coverity flags the existing code for using a tainted expression as an
index to a pointer. While we're fixing other range errors and overflows
in this code, we should fix this one as well by porting the existing
code from the main branch.
