Before referencing the inode, we must ensure that the superblock can be
referenced. Otherwise, we can end up with iput() calling superblock
operations that are no longer valid or accessible.

Several existing dprink()/dfprintk() calls were converted to use the new
mount API logging macros by commit ce8866f0913f ("NFS: Attach
supplementary error information to fs_context"). If the fs_context was
not created using fsopen() then it will not have had a log buffer
allocated for it, and the new mount API logging macros will wind up
calling printk().
This can result in syslog messages being logged where previously there
were none... most notably "NFS4: Couldn't follow remote path", which can
happen if the client is auto-negotiating a protocol version with an NFS
server that doesn't support the higher v4.x versions.
Convert the nfs_errorf(), nfs_invalf(), and nfs_warnf() macros to check
for the existence of the fs_context's log buffer and call dprintk() if
it doesn't exist. Add nfs_ferrorf(), nfs_finvalf(), and nfs_warnf(),
which do the same thing but take an NFS debug flag as an argument and
call dfprintk(). Finally, modify the "NFS4: Couldn't follow remote
path" message to use nfs_ferrorf().

After an NFS page has been written it is considered "unstable" until a
COMMIT request succeeds. If the COMMIT fails, the page will be
re-written.
These "unstable" pages are currently accounted as "reclaimable", either
in WB_RECLAIMABLE, or in NR_UNSTABLE_NFS which is included in a
'reclaimable' count. This might have made sense when sending the COMMIT
required a separate action by the VFS/MM (e.g. releasepage() used to
send a COMMIT). However now that all writes generated by ->writepages()
will automatically be followed by a COMMIT (since commit 919e3bd9a875
("NFS: Ensure we commit after writeback is complete")) it makes more
sense to treat them as writeback pages.
So this patch removes NR_UNSTABLE_NFS and accounts unstable pages in
NR_WRITEBACK and WB_WRITEBACK.
A particular effect of this change is that when
wb_check_background_flush() calls wb_over_bg_threshold(), the latter
will report 'true' a lot less often as the 'unstable' pages are no
longer considered 'dirty' (as there is nothing that writeback can do
about them anyway).
Currently wb_check_background_flush() will trigger writeback to NFS even
when there are relatively few dirty pages (if there are lots of unstable
pages), this can result in small writes going to the server (10s of
Kilobytes rather than a Megabyte) which hurts throughput. With this
patch, there are fewer writes which are each larger on average.
Where the NR_UNSTABLE_NFS count was included in statistics
virtual-files, the entry is retained, but the value is hard-coded as
zero. static trace points and warning printks which mentioned this
counter no longer report it.

This patch adds additional refactoring for the conversion of NFS to use
fs_context, namely:
(*) Merge nfs_mount_info and nfs_clone_mount into nfs_fs_context.
nfs_clone_mount has had several fields removed, and nfs_mount_info
has been removed altogether.
(*) Various functions now take an fs_context as an argument instead
of nfs_mount_info, nfs_fs_context, etc.

Add filesystem context support to NFS, parsing the options in advance and
attaching the information to struct nfs_fs_context. The highlights are:
(*) Merge nfs_mount_info and nfs_clone_mount into nfs_fs_context. This
structure represents NFS's superblock config.
(*) Make use of the VFS's parsing support to split comma-separated lists
(*) Pin the NFS protocol module in the nfs_fs_context.
(*) Attach supplementary error information to fs_context. This has the
downside that these strings must be static and can't be formatted.
(*) Remove the auxiliary file_system_type structs since the information
necessary can be conveyed in the nfs_fs_context struct instead.
(*) Root mounts are made by duplicating the config for the requested mount
so as to have the same parameters. Submounts pick up their parameters
from the parent superblock.

The only possible values are nfs_fill_super and nfs_clone_super. The
latter is used only when crossing into a submount and it is almost
identical to the former; the only differences are
* ->s_time_gran unconditionally set to 1 (even for v2 mounts).
Regression dating back to 2012, actually.
* ->s_blocksize/->s_blocksize_bits set to that of parent.
Rather than messing with the method, stash ->s_blocksize_bits in
mount_info in submount case and after the (now unconditional)
call of nfs_fill_super() override ->s_blocksize/->s_blocksize_bits
if that has been set.

In the years since the max readahead size was fixed in NFS, a number of
things have happened:
- Users can now set the value directly using /sys/class/bdi
- NFS max supported block sizes have increased by several orders of
magnitude from 64K to 1MB.
- Disk access latencies are orders of magnitude faster due to SSD + NVME.
In particular note that if the server is advertising 1MB as the optimal
read size, as that will set the readahead size to 15MB.
Let's therefore adjust down, and try to default to VM_READAHEAD_PAGES.
However let's inform the VM about our preferred block size so that it
can choose to round up in cases where that makes sense.

This reverts commit be4c2d4723a4a637f0d1b4f7c66447141a4b3564.
That commit caused a severe memory leak in nfs_readdir_make_qstr().
When listing a directory with more than 100 files (this is how many
struct nfs_cache_array_entry elements fit in one 4kB page), all
allocated file name strings past those 100 leak.
The root of the leakage is that those string pointers are managed in
pages which are never linked into the page cache.
fs/nfs/dir.c puts pages into the page cache by calling
read_cache_page(); the callback function nfs_readdir_filler() will
then fill the given page struct which was passed to it, which is
already linked in the page cache (by do_read_cache_page() calling
add_to_page_cache_lru()).
Commit be4c2d4723a4 added another (local) array of allocated pages, to
be filled with more data, instead of discarding excess items received
from the NFS server. Those additional pages can be used by the next
nfs_readdir_filler() call (from within the same nfs_readdir() call).
The leak happens when some of those additional pages are never used
(copied to the page cache using copy_highpage()). The pages will be
freed by nfs_readdir_free_pages(), but their contents will not. The
commit did not invoke nfs_readdir_clear_array() (and doing so would
have been dangerous, because it did not track which of those pages
were already copied to the page cache, risking double free bugs).
How to reproduce the leak:
- Use a kernel with CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON.
- Create a directory on a NFS mount with more than 100 files with
names long enough to use the "kmalloc-32" slab (so we can easily
look up the allocation counts):
for i in `seq 110`; do touch ${i}_0123456789abcdef; done
- Drop all caches:
echo 3 >/proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
- Check the allocation counter:
grep nfs_readdir /sys/kernel/slab/kmalloc-32/alloc_calls
30564391 nfs_readdir_add_to_array+0x73/0xd0 age=534558/4791307/6540952 pid=370-1048386 cpus=0-47 nodes=0-1
- Request a directory listing and check the allocation counters again:
ls
[...]
grep nfs_readdir /sys/kernel/slab/kmalloc-32/alloc_calls
30564511 nfs_readdir_add_to_array+0x73/0xd0 age=207/4792999/6542663 pid=370-1048386 cpus=0-47 nodes=0-1
There are now 120 new allocations.
- Drop all caches and check the counters again:
echo 3 >/proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
grep nfs_readdir /sys/kernel/slab/kmalloc-32/alloc_calls
30564401 nfs_readdir_add_to_array+0x73/0xd0 age=735/4793524/6543176 pid=370-1048386 cpus=0-47 nodes=0-1
110 allocations are gone, but 10 have leaked and will never be freed.
Unhelpfully, those allocations are explicitly excluded from KMEMLEAK,
that's why my initial attempts with KMEMLEAK were not successful:
/*
* Avoid a kmemleak false positive. The pointer to the name is stored
* in a page cache page which kmemleak does not scan.
*/
kmemleak_not_leak(string->name);
It would be possible to solve this bug without reverting the whole
commit:
- keep track of which pages were not used, and call
nfs_readdir_clear_array() on them, or
- manually link those pages into the page cache
But for now I have decided to just revert the commit, because the real
fix would require complex considerations, risking more dangerous
(crash) bugs, which may seem unsuitable for the stable branches.

When listing very large directories via NFS, clients may take a long
time to complete. There are about three factors involved:
First of all, ls and practically every other method of listing a
directory including python os.listdir and find rely on libc readdir().
However readdir() only reads 32K of directory entries at a time, which
means that if you have a lot of files in the same directory, it is going
to take an insanely long time to read all the directory entries.
Secondly, libc readdir() reads 32K of directory entries at a time, in
kernel space 32K buffer split into 8 pages. One NFS readdirplus rpc will
be called for one page, which introduces many readdirplus rpc calls.
Lastly, one NFS readdirplus rpc asks for 32K data (filled by nfs_dentry)
to fill one page (filled by dentry), we found that nearly one third of
data was wasted.
To solve above problems, pagecache mechanism was introduced. One NFS
readdirplus rpc will ask for a large data (more than 32k), the data can
fill more than one page, the cached pages can be used for next readdir
call. This can reduce many readdirplus rpc calls and improve readdirplus
performance.
TESTING:
When listing very large directories(include 300 thousand files) via NFS
time ls -l /nfs_mount | wc -l

Pull vfs mount API prep from Al Viro:
"Mount API prereqs.
Mostly that's LSM mount options cleanups. There are several minor
fixes in there, but nothing earth-shattering (leaks on failure exits,
mostly)"
* 'mount.part1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: (27 commits)
mount_fs: suppress MAC on MS_SUBMOUNT as well as MS_KERNMOUNT
smack: rewrite smack_sb_eat_lsm_opts()
smack: get rid of match_token()
smack: take the guts of smack_parse_opts_str() into a new helper
LSM: new method: ->sb_add_mnt_opt()
selinux: rewrite selinux_sb_eat_lsm_opts()
selinux: regularize Opt_... names a bit
selinux: switch away from match_token()
selinux: new helper - selinux_add_opt()
LSM: bury struct security_mnt_opts
smack: switch to private smack_mnt_opts
selinux: switch to private struct selinux_mnt_opts
LSM: hide struct security_mnt_opts from any generic code
selinux: kill selinux_sb_get_mnt_opts()
LSM: turn sb_eat_lsm_opts() into a method
nfs_remount(): don't leak, don't ignore LSM options quietly
btrfs: sanitize security_mnt_opts use
selinux; don't open-code a loop in sb_finish_set_opts()
LSM: split ->sb_set_mnt_opts() out of ->sb_kern_mount()
new helper: security_sb_eat_lsm_opts()

Multipathing: In case of NFSv3, rpc_clnt_test_and_add_xprt() adds
the xprt to xprt switch (i.e. xps) if rpc_call_null_helper() returns
success. But in case of NFSv4.1, it needs to do EXCHANGEID to verify
the path along with check for session trunking.
Add the xprt in nfs4_test_session_trunk() only when
nfs4_detect_session_trunking() returns success. Also release refcount
hold by rpc_clnt_setup_test_and_add_xprt().

Keep void * instead, allocate on demand (in parse_str_opts, at the
moment). Eventually both selinux and smack will be better off
with private structures with several strings in those, rather than
this "counter and two pointers to dynamically allocated arrays"
ugliness. This commit allows to do that at leisure, without
disrupting anything outside of given module.
Changes:
* instead of struct security_mnt_opt use an opaque pointer
initialized to NULL.
* security_sb_eat_lsm_opts(), security_sb_parse_opts_str() and
security_free_mnt_opts() take it as var argument (i.e. as void **);
call sites are unchanged.
* security_sb_set_mnt_opts() and security_sb_remount() take
it by value (i.e. as void *).
* new method: ->sb_free_mnt_opts(). Takes void *, does
whatever freeing that needs to be done.
* ->sb_set_mnt_opts() and ->sb_remount() might get NULL as
mnt_opts argument, meaning "empty".

SUNRPC has two sorts of credentials, both of which appear as
"struct rpc_cred".
There are "generic credentials" which are supplied by clients
such as NFS and passed in 'struct rpc_message' to indicate
which user should be used to authorize the request, and there
are low-level credentials such as AUTH_NULL, AUTH_UNIX, AUTH_GSS
which describe the credential to be sent over the wires.
This patch replaces all the generic credentials by 'struct cred'
pointers - the credential structure used throughout Linux.
For machine credentials, there is a special 'struct cred *' pointer
which is statically allocated and recognized where needed as
having a special meaning. A look-up of a low-level cred will
map this to a machine credential.
