2008-04-23knfsd: clear both setuid and setgid whenever a chown is doneJeff Layton
Currently, knfsd only clears the setuid bit if the owner of a file is changed on a SETATTR call, and only clears the setgid bit if the group is changed. POSIX says this in the spec for chown(): "If the specified file is a regular file, one or more of the S_IXUSR, S_IXGRP, or S_IXOTH bits of the file mode are set, and the process does not have appropriate privileges, the set-user-ID (S_ISUID) and set-group-ID (S_ISGID) bits of the file mode shall be cleared upon successful return from chown()." If I'm reading this correctly, then knfsd is doing this wrong. It should be clearing both the setuid and setgid bit on any SETATTR that changes the uid or gid. This wasn't really as noticable before, but now that the ATTR_KILL_S*ID bits are a no-op for the NFS client, it's more evident. This patch corrects the nfsd_setattr logic so that this occurs. It also does a bit of cleanup to the function. There is also one small behavioral change. If a SETATTR call comes in that changes the uid/gid and the mode, then we now only clear the setgid bit if the group execute bit isn't set. The setgid bit without a group execute bit signifies mandatory locking and we likely don't want to clear the bit in that case. Since there is no call in POSIX that should generate a SETATTR call like this, then this should rarely happen, but it's worth noting. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: J.

2008-04-23NLM: don't let lockd exit on unexpected svc_recv errors (try #2)Jeff Layton
When svc_recv returns an unexpected error, lockd will print a warning and exit. This problematic for several reasons. In particular, it will cause the reference counts for the thread to be wrong, and can lead to a potential BUG() call. Rather than exiting on error from svc_recv, have the thread do a 1s sleep and then retry the loop. This is unlikely to cause any harm, and if the error turns out to be something temporary then it may be able to recover. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: J.

When svc_recv returns an unexpected error, nfs_callback_svc will print a warning and exit. This problematic for several reasons. In particular, it will cause the reference counts for the thread to be wrong, and no new thread will be started until all nfs4 mounts are unmounted.

2008-04-23nfsd: use static memory for callback program and statsOlga Kornievskaia
There's no need to dynamically allocate this memory, and doing so may create the possibility of races on shutdown of the rpc client. (We've witnessed it only after adding rpcsec_gss support to the server, after which the rpc code can send destroys calls that expect to still be able to access the rpc_stats structure after it has been destroyed.) Such races are in theory possible if the module containing this "static" memory is removed very quickly after an rpc client is destroyed, but we haven't seen that happen. Signed-off-by: J.

2008-04-23NFSD: Remove NFSv4 dependency on NFSv3Chuck Lever
Clean up: Because NFSD_V4 "depends on" NFSD_V3, it appears as a child of the NFSD_V3 menu entry, and is not visible if NFSD_V3 is unselected. Replace the dependency on NFSD_V3 with a "select NFSD_V3". This makes NFSD_V4 look and work just like NFS_V3, while ensuring that NFSD_V3 is enabled if NFSD_V4 is. Sam Ravnborg adds: "This use of select is questionable. In general it is bad to select a symbol with dependencies. In this case the dependencies of NFSD_V3 are duplicated for NFSD_V4 so we will not se erratic configurations but do you remember to update NFSD_V4 when you add a depends on NFSD_V3? But I see no other clean way to do it right now." Later he said: "My comment was more to say we have things to address in kconfig. This is abuse in the acceptable range."

2008-04-23SUNRPC: Remove PROC_FS dependencyChuck Lever
Recently, commit 440bcc59 added a reverse dependency to fs/Kconfig to ensure that PROC_FS was enabled if SUNRPC_GSS was enabled. Apparently this isn't necessary because the auth_gss components under net/sunrpc will build correctly even if PROC_FS is disabled, though RPCSEC_GSS will not work without /proc. It also violates the guideline in Documentation/kbuild/kconfig-language.txt that states "In general use select only for non-visible symbols (no prompts anywhere) and for symbols with no dependencies." To address these issues, remove the dependency. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@citi.umich.edu>
2008-04-23NFSD: Use "depends on" for PROC_FS dependencyChuck Lever
Recently, commit 440bcc59 added a reverse dependency to fs/Kconfig to ensure that PROC_FS was enabled if NFSD_V4 was enabled. There is a guideline in Documentation/kbuild/kconfig-language.txt that states "In general use select only for non-visible symbols (no prompts anywhere) and for symbols with no dependencies." A quick grep around other Kconfig files reveals that no entry currently uses "select PROC_FS" -- every one uses "depends on". Thus CONFIG_NFSD_V4 should use "depends on PROC_FS" as well.

2008-04-23nfsd: initialize lease type in nfs4_open_delegation()Felix Blyakher
While lease is correctly checked by supplying the type argument to vfs_setlease(), it's stored with fl_type uninitialized. This breaks the logic when checking the type of the lease. The fix is to initialize fl_type. The old code still happened to function correctly since F_RDLCK is zero, and we only implement read delegations currently (nor write delegations).

2008-04-23NFS: convert nfs4 callback thread to kthread APIJeff Layton
There's a general push to convert kernel threads to use the (much cleaner) kthread API. This patch converts the NFSv4 callback kernel thread to the kthread API. In addition to being generally cleaner this also removes the dependency on signals when shutting down the thread. Note that this patch depends on the recent patches to svc_recv() to make it check kthread_should_stop() periodically. Those patches are in Bruce's tree at the moment and are slated for 2.6.26 along with the lockd conversion, so this conversion is probably also appropriate for 2.6.26.

2008-04-23NLM: Convert lockd to use kthreadsJeff Layton
Have lockd_up start lockd using kthread_run. With this change, lockd_down now blocks until lockd actually exits, so there's no longer need for the waitqueue code at the end of lockd_down. This also means that only one lockd can be running at a time which simplifies the code within lockd's main loop. This also adds a check for kthread_should_stop in the main loop of nlmsvc_retry_blocked and after that function returns. There's no sense continuing to retry blocks if lockd is coming down anyway.

2008-04-23knfsd: Remove NLM_HOST_MAX and associated logic.NeilBrown
Lockd caches information about hosts that have recently held locks to expedite the taking of further locks. It periodically discards this information for hosts that have not been used for a few minutes. lockd currently has a value NLM_HOST_MAX, and changes the 'garbage collection' behaviour when the number of hosts exceeds this threshold. However its behaviour is strange, and likely not what was intended. When the number of hosts exceeds the max, it scans *less* often (every 2 minutes vs every minute) and allows unused host information to remain around longer (5 minutes instead of 2). Having this limit is of dubious value anyway, and we have not suffered from the code not getting the limit right, so remove the limit altogether. We go with the larger values (discard 5 minute old hosts every 2 minutes) as they are probably safer. Maybe the periodic garbage collection should be replace to with 'shrinker' handler so we just respond to memory pressure....

Add a unique ID to each peer group using the IDR infrastructure. The identifiers are reused after the peer group dissolves. The IDR structures are protected by holding namepspace_sem for write while allocating or deallocating IDs. IDs are allocated when a previously unshared vfsmount becomes the first member of a peer group. When a new member is added to an existing group, the ID is copied from one of the old members. IDs are freed when the last member of a peer group is unshared. Setting the MNT_SHARED flag on members of a subtree is done as a separate step, after all the IDs have been allocated. This way an allocation failure can be cleaned up easilty, without affecting the propagation state. Based on design sketch by Al Viro.
