Calling tipc_mon_delete() before the monitor has been created will oops.
This can happen in tipc_enable_bearer() error path if tipc_disc_create()
fails.

The neighbor monitor employs a threshold, default set to 32 peer nodes,
where it activates the "Overlapping Neighbor Monitoring" algorithm.
Below that threshold, monitoring is full-mesh, and no "domain records"
are passed between the nodes.
Because of this, a node never received a peer's ack that it has received
the most recent update of the own domain. Hence, the field 'acked_gen'
in struct tipc_monitor_state remains permamently at zero, whereas the
own domain generation is incremented for each added or removed peer.
This has the effect that the function tipc_mon_get_state() always sets
the field 'probing' in struct tipc_monitor_state true, again leading the
tipc_link_timeout() of the link in question to always send out a probe,
even when link->silent_intv_count is zero.
This is functionally harmless, but leads to some unncessary probing,
which can easily be eliminated by setting the 'probing' field of the
said struct correctly in such cases.
At the same time, we explictly invalidate the sent domain records when
the algorithm is not activated. This will eliminate any risk that an
invalid domain record might be inadverently accepted by the peer.

In commit 35c55c9877f8 ("tipc: add neighbor monitoring framework") we
added a data area to the link monitor STATE messages under the
assumption that previous versions did not use any such data area.
For versions older than Linux 4.3 this assumption is not correct. In
those version, all STATE messages sent out from a node inadvertently
contain a 16 byte data area containing a string; -a leftover from
previous RESET messages which were using this during the setup phase.
This string serves no purpose in STATE messages, and should no be there.
Unfortunately, this data area is delivered to the link monitor
framework, where a sanity check catches that it is not a correct domain
record, and drops it. It also issues a rate limited warning about the
event.
Since such events occur much more frequently than anticipated, we now
choose to remove the warning in order to not fill the kernel log with
useless contents. We also make the sanity check stricter, to further
reduce the risk that such data is inavertently admitted.

In commit cf6f7e1d5109 ("tipc: dump monitor attributes"),
I dereferenced a pointer before checking if its valid.
This is reported by static check Smatch as:
net/tipc/monitor.c:733 tipc_nl_add_monitor_peer()
warn: variable dereferenced before check 'mon' (see line 731)
In this commit, we check for a valid monitor before proceeding
with any other operation.

In this commit, we dump the monitor attributes when queried.
The link monitor attributes are separated into two kinds:
1. general attributes per bearer
2. specific attributes per node/peer
This style resembles the socket attributes and the nametable
publications per socket.

TIPC based clusters are by default set up with full-mesh link
connectivity between all nodes. Those links are expected to provide
a short failure detection time, by default set to 1500 ms. Because
of this, the background load for neighbor monitoring in an N-node
cluster increases with a factor N on each node, while the overall
monitoring traffic through the network infrastructure increases at
a ~(N * (N - 1)) rate. Experience has shown that such clusters don't
scale well beyond ~100 nodes unless we significantly increase failure
discovery tolerance.
This commit introduces a framework and an algorithm that drastically
reduces this background load, while basically maintaining the original
failure detection times across the whole cluster. Using this algorithm,
background load will now grow at a rate of ~(2 * sqrt(N)) per node, and
at ~(2 * N * sqrt(N)) in traffic overhead. As an example, each node will
now have to actively monitor 38 neighbors in a 400-node cluster, instead
of as before 399.
This "Overlapping Ring Supervision Algorithm" is completely distributed
and employs no centralized or coordinated state. It goes as follows:
- Each node makes up a linearly ascending, circular list of all its N
known neighbors, based on their TIPC node identity. This algorithm
must be the same on all nodes.
- The node then selects the next M = sqrt(N) - 1 nodes downstream from
itself in the list, and chooses to actively monitor those. This is
called its "local monitoring domain".
- It creates a domain record describing the monitoring domain, and
piggy-backs this in the data area of all neighbor monitoring messages
(LINK_PROTOCOL/STATE) leaving that node. This means that all nodes in
the cluster eventually (default within 400 ms) will learn about
its monitoring domain.
- Whenever a node discovers a change in its local domain, e.g., a node
has been added or has gone down, it creates and sends out a new
version of its node record to inform all neighbors about the change.
- A node receiving a domain record from anybody outside its local domain
matches this against its own list (which may not look the same), and
chooses to not actively monitor those members of the received domain
record that are also present in its own list. Instead, it relies on
indications from the direct monitoring nodes if an indirectly
monitored node has gone up or down. If a node is indicated lost, the
receiving node temporarily activates its own direct monitoring towards
that node in order to confirm, or not, that it is actually gone.
- Since each node is actively monitoring sqrt(N) downstream neighbors,
each node is also actively monitored by the same number of upstream
neighbors. This means that all non-direct monitoring nodes normally
will receive sqrt(N) indications that a node is gone.
- A major drawback with ring monitoring is how it handles failures that
cause massive network partitionings. If both a lost node and all its
direct monitoring neighbors are inside the lost partition, the nodes in
the remaining partition will never receive indications about the loss.
To overcome this, each node also chooses to actively monitor some
nodes outside its local domain. Those nodes are called remote domain
"heads", and are selected in such a way that no node in the cluster
will be more than two direct monitoring hops away. Because of this,
each node, apart from monitoring the member of its local domain, will
also typically monitor sqrt(N) remote head nodes.
- As an optimization, local list status, domain status and domain
records are marked with a generation number. This saves senders from
unnecessarily conveying unaltered domain records, and receivers from
performing unneeded re-adaptations of their node monitoring list, such
as re-assigning domain heads.
- As a measure of caution we have added the possibility to disable the
new algorithm through configuration. We do this by keeping a threshold
value for the cluster size; a cluster that grows beyond this value
will switch from full-mesh to ring monitoring, and vice versa when
it shrinks below the value. This means that if the threshold is set to
a value larger than any anticipated cluster size (default size is 32)
the new algorithm is effectively disabled. A patch set for altering the
threshold value and for listing the table contents will follow shortly.
- This change is fully backwards compatible.
