Subject[GIT] Please pull NFS client updates for 2.6.27
From
Date
Hi Linus,

Please pull from the repository at

git pull git://git.linux-nfs.org/projects/trondmy/nfs-2.6.git

This will update the following files through the appended changesets.

In addition to a number of bugfixes, this pull introduces a couple of new
features, including:

- A mount option for turning off negative dentry caching, and/or
forcing strict revalidation of all dentries. This feature is mainly
designed for people wanting to do distributed compiles on a
cluster.
- More IPv6 updates from Chuck & co.
- SUNRPC level support for the "fastreg" memory registration model
used by some RDMA adapters.


Cheers,
Trond

NFS: Fix a resolution problem with nfs_inode->cache_change_attribute

The cache_change_attribute is used to decide whether or not a directory has
changed, in which case we may need to look it up again. Again, the use of
'jiffies' leads to an issue of resolution.

Once again, the fix is to change nfs_inode->cache_change_attribute, and
just make it a simple counter.

NFS: Fix the resolution problem with nfs_inode_attrs_need_update()

It appears that 'jiffies' timestamps do not have high enough resolution for
nfs_inode_attrs_need_update(). One problem is that a GETATTR can be
launched within < 1 jiffy of the last operation that updated the attribute.
Another problem is that RPC calls can take < 1 jiffy to execute.

We can fix this by switching the variables to use a simple global counter
that gets incremented every time we start another GETATTR call.

RPC/RDMA: fix connection IRD/ORD setting

This logic sets the connection parameter that configures the local device
and informs the remote peer how many concurrent incoming RDMA_READ
requests are supported. The original logic didn't really do what was
intended for two reasons:

- The max number supported by the device is typically smaller than
any one factor in the calculation used, and

- The field in the connection parameter structure where the value is
stored is a u8 and always overflows for the default settings.

So what really happens is the value requested for responder resources
is the left over 8 bits from the "desired value". If the desired value
happened to be a multiple of 256, the result was zero and it wouldn't
connect at all.

Given the above and the fact that max_requests is almost always larger
than the max responder resources supported by the adapter, this patch
simplifies this logic and simply requests the max supported by the device,
subject to a reasonable limit.

This bug was found by Jim Schutt at Sandia.

NFS: fix nfs_parse_ip_address() corner case

Bruce observed that nfs_parse_ip_address() will successfully parse an
IPv6 address that looks like this:

"::1%"

A scope delimiter is present, but there is no scope ID following it.
This is harmless, as it would simply set the scope ID to zero. However,
in some cases we would like to flag this as an improperly formed
address.

We are now also careful to reject addresses where garbage follows the
address (up to the length of the string), instead of ignoring the
non-address characters; and where the scope ID is nonsense (not a valid
device name, but also not numeric). Before, both of these cases would
result in a harmless zero scope ID.

NFS: Fix attribute updates

This fixes a regression seen when running the Connectathon testsuite
against an ext3 filesystem. The reason was that the inode was constantly
being marked as 'just updated' by the jiffy wraparound test.
This again meant that newer GETATTR calls were failing to pass the
nfs_inode_attrs_need_update() test unless the changes caused a ctime update
on the server, since they were perceived as having been started before the
latest inode update.

Given that nfs_inode_attrs_need_update() already checks for wraparound
of nfsi->last_updated, we can drop the buggy "protection" in
nfs_update_inode().

Also make a slight micro-optimisation of nfs_inode_attrs_need_update(): we
are more often going to see time_after(fattr->time_start, nfsi->last_updated)
be true, rather than seeing an update of ctime/size, so put that test
first to ensure that we optimise away the ctime/size tests.

sunrpc: fix oops in rpc_create when the mount namespace is unshared

On a system with nfs mounts, if a task unshares its mount namespace,
a oops can occur when the system is rebooted if the task is the last
to unreference the nfs mount. It will try to create a rpc request
using utsname() which has been invalidated by free_nsproxy().

The patch fixes the issue by using the global init_utsname() which is
always valid. the capability of identifying rpc clients per uts namespace
stills needs some extra work so this should not be a problem.

NFS: Client mounts hang when exported directory do not exist

This patch fixes a regression that was introduced by the string based mounts.

nfs_mount() statically returns -EACCES for every error returned
by the remote mounted. This is incorrect because -EACCES is
an non-fatal error to the mount.nfs command. This error causes
mount.nfs to retry the mount even in the case when the exported
directory does not exist.

This patch maps the errors returned by the remote mountd into
valid errno values, exactly how it was done pre-string based
mounts. By returning the correct errno enables mount.nfs
to do the right thing.

Despite the fact that cloned rpc clients won't have the cl_autobind flag
set, they may still find themselves calling rpcb_getport_async(). For this
to happen, it suffices for a _parent_ rpc_clnt to use autobinding, in which
case any clone may find itself triggering the !xprt_bound() case in
call_bind().

The correct fix for this is to walk back up the tree of cloned rpc clients,
in order to find the parent that 'owns' the transport, either because it
has clnt->cl_autobind set, or because it originally created the
transport...

NFS: SETCLIENTID truncates client ID and netid

The sc_name field is currently 56 bytes long. This is not large enough
to hold a pair of IPv6 addresses, the authentication type, the protocol
name, and a uniquifier number. The maximum possible size of the name
string using IPv6 addresses is just under 110 bytes, so I increased the
size of the sc_name field to accomodate this maximum.

In addition, the strings in the nfs4_setclientid structure are
constructed with scnprintf(), which wants to terminate its output with
'\0'. The sc_netid field was large enough only for a three byte netid
string and a '\0' so inet6 netids were being truncated. Perhaps we
don't need the overhead of scnprintf() to do a simple string copy, but
I fixed this by increasing the size of the buffer by one byte.

Since all three of the string buffers in nfs4_setclientid are
constructed with scnprintf(), I increased the size of all three by one
byte to document the requirement, although I don't think either the
universal address field or the name field will be so small that these
strings get truncated in this way.

The size of the Linux client's client ID on the wire will be larger
than before. RFC 3530 suggests the size limit for client IDs is 1024,
and we are still well below that.

remove 8 bytes of padding from struct nfs_fattr on 64 bit builds

This also removes padding from several nfs structures, including
16 bytes from nfs4_opendata, nfs4_createdata,nfs3_createdata
& 8 bytes from nfs_read_data,nfs_write_data,nfs_removeres,nfs4_closedata

This also reduces the reported stack usage of many nfs functions (30+).

This patch is against the latest git 2.6.27-rc4.
I've built & run this on my AMD64 desktop, & successfully run _simple_
tests with a 64 bit client => 32 bit server & 32 bit client to 64 bit
server.

On fedora with gcc (GCC) 4.3.0 20080428 (Red Hat 4.3.0-8) checkpatch
reports 33 functions with reduced stack usage.
e.g.
__nfs_revalidate_inode [nfs] 216 => 200
_nfs4_proc_access [nfs] 304 => 288
_nfs4_proc_link [nfs] 536 => 504
_nfs4_proc_remove [nfs] 304 => 288
_nfs4_proc_rename [nfs] 584 => 552
nfs3_proc_access [nfs] 272 => 256
nfs3_proc_getacl [nfs] 384 => 368
nfs3_proc_link [nfs] 496 => 464

nfs: authenticated deep mounting

Allow mount to do authenticated mounts below the root of the exported tree.
The wording in RFC 2623, sec 2.3.2. allows fsinfo with UNIX authentication
on the root of the export. Mounts are not always done on the root
of the exported tree. Especially autoumounts often mount below the root of
the exported tree.
Some server implementations (justly) require full authentication for the
so-called deep mounts. The old code used AUTH_SYS only. This caused deep
mounts to fail on systems requiring stronger authentication..
The client should try both authentication types and use the first one that
succeeds.
This method was already partially implemented. This patch completes
the implementation for NFS2 and NFS3.
This patch was developed to allow Debian systems to automount home directories
on Solaris servers with krb5 authentication.

Tested on kernel 2.6.24-etchnhalf.1

NFS: Convert __nfs_revalidate_inode() to use nfs_refresh_inode()

In the case where there are parallel RPC calls to the same inode, we may

checking of metadata in nfs_refresh_inode().
Currently, __nfs_revalidate_inode() is calling nfs_update_inode() directly,
without any further sanity checks, and hence may end up setting the inode
up with stale metadata.

Fix is to use nfs_refresh_inode() instead of nfs_update_inode().

NFS: Fix the NFS attribute update

Currently nfs_refresh_inode() will only update the inode metadata if it
sees that the RPC call that returned the nfs_fattr was started
after the last update of the inode. This means that if we have parallel
RPC calls to the same inode (when sending WRITE calls, for instance), we
may often miss updates.

This patch attempts to recover those missed updates by also accepting
them if the ctime in the nfs_fattr is more recent than the inode's
cached ctime.
It also recovers the case where the file size has increased, but the
ctime has not been updated due to limited ctime resolution.
