There is a possible race in d_splice_alias. Though __d_find_alias(inode, 1) will only return a dentry with DCACHE_DISCONNECTED set, it is possible for it to get cleared before the BUG_ON, and it is is not possible to lock against that. There are a couple of problems here. Firstly, the code doesn't match the comment. The comment describes a 'disconnected' dentry as being IS_ROOT as well as DCACHE_DISCONNECTED, however there is not testing of IS_ROOT anythere. A dentry is marked DCACHE_DISCONNECTED when allocated with d_alloc_anon, and remains DCACHE_DISCONNECTED while a path is built up towards the root. So a dentry can have a valid name and a valid parent and even grandparent, but will still be DCACHE_DISCONNECTED until a path to the root is created. Once the path to the root is complete, everything in the path gets DCACHE_DISCONNECTED cleared. So the fact that DCACHE_DISCONNECTED isn't enough to say that a dentry is free to be spliced in with a given name. This can only be allowed if the dentry does not yet have a name, so the IS_ROOT test is needed too. However even adding that test to __d_find_alias isn't enough. As d_splice_alias drops dcache_lock before calling d_move to perform the splice, it could race with another thread calling d_splice_alias to splice the inode in with a different name in a different part of the tree (in the case where a file has hard links). So that splicing code is only really safe for directories (as we know that directories only have one link). For directories, the caller of d_splice_alias will be holding i_mutex on the (unique) parent so there is no room for a race. A consequence of this is that a non-directory will never benefit from being spliced into a pre-exisiting dentry, but that isn't a problem. It is perfectly OK for a non-directory to have multiple dentries, some anonymous, some not. And the comment for d_splice_alias says that it only happens for directories anyway.

It is legal to have zero-length NFSv4 acls; they just deny everything. Also, nfs4_acl_nfsv4_to_posix will always return with pacl and dpacl set on success, so the caller doesn't need to check this.

Use a different nfsv4->(draft posix) acl mapping which is 1. completely backwards compatible, 2. accepts any nfsv4 acl, and 3. errs on the side of restricting permissions. In detail: 1. completely backwards compatible: The new mapping produces the same result on any acl produced by the existing (draft posix)->nfsv4 mapping; the one exception is that we no longer attempt to guess the value of the mask by assuming certain denies represent the mask. Since the server still keeps track of the mask locally, sequences of chmod's will still be handled fine; the only thing this will change is sequences of chmod's with intervening read-modify-writes of the acl. That last case just isn't worth the trouble and the possible misrepresentations of the user's intent (if we guess that a certain deny indicates masking is in effect when it really isn't). 2. accepts any nfsv4 acl: That's not quite true: we still reject acls that use combinations of inheritance flags that we don't support. We also reject acls that attempt to explicitly deny read_acl or read_attributes permissions, or that attempt to deny write_acl or write_attributes permissions to the owner of the file. 3. errs on the side of restricting permissions: one exception to this last rule: we totally ignore some bits (write_owner, synchronize, read_named_attributes, etc.) that are completely alien to our filesystem semantics, in some cases even if that would mean ignoring an explicit deny that we have no intention of enforcing. Excepting that, the posix acl produced should be the most permissive acl that is not more permissive than the given nfsv4 acl. And the new code's shorter, too. Neato. Signed-off-by: J.

The rpc reply has multiple levels of error returns. The code here contributes to the confusion by using "accept_statp" for a pointer to what the rfc (and wireshark, etc.) refer to as the "reply_stat". (The confusion is compounded by the fact that the rfc also has an "accept_stat" which follows the reply_stat in the succesful case.) Signed-off-by: J.

If the request is denied after gss_accept was called, we shouldn't try to wrap the reply. We were checking the accept_stat but not the reply_stat. To check the reply_stat in _release, we need a pointer to before (rather than after) the verifier, so modify body_start appropriately. Signed-off-by: J.

The NFSACL patches introduced support for multiple RPC services listening on the same transport. However, only the first of these services was registered with portmapper. This was perfectly fine for nfsacl, as you traditionally do not want these to show up in a portmapper listing. The patch below changes the default behavior to always register all services listening on a given transport, but retains the old behavior for nfsacl services.

Every NLM call includes the client's NSM state. Currently, the Linux client always reports 0 - which seems not to cause any problems, but is not what the protocol says.

When we send a GRANTED_MSG call, we current copy the NLM cookie provided in the original LOCK call - because in 1996, some broken clients seemed to rely on this bug. However, this means the cookies are not unique, so that when the client's GRANTED_RES message comes back, we cannot simply match it based on the cookie, but have to use the client's IP address in addition. Which breaks when you have a multi-homed NFS client. The X/Open spec explicitly mentions that clients should not expect the same cookie; so one may hope that any clients that were broken in 1996 have either been fixed or rendered obsolete.

This patch adds the nsm_use_hostnames sysctl and module param. If set, lockd will use the client's name (as given in the NLM arguments) to find the NSM handle. This makes recovery work when the NFS peer is multi-homed, and the reboot notification arrives from a different IP than the original lock calls.

As a result of previous patches, the loop in nlmsvc_invalidate_all just sets h_expires for all client/hosts to 0 (though does it in a very complicated way). This was possibly meant to trigger early garbage collection but half the time '0' is in the future and so it infact delays garbage collection. Pre-aging the 'hosts' is not really needed at this point anyway so we throw out the loop and nlm_find_client which is no longer needed.

This patch makes nlm_traverse{locks,blocks,shares} and friends use a function pointer rather than a "action" enum. This function pointer is given two nlm_hosts (one given by the caller, the other taken from the lock/block/share currently visited), and is free to do with them as it wants. If it returns a non-zero value, the lockd/block/share is released.

This patch makes the SM_NOTIFY handling understand and use the nsm_handle. To make it a bit clear what is happening: nlmclent_prepare_reclaim and nlmclnt_finish_reclaim get open-coded into 'reclaimer' The result is tidied up. Then some of that functionality is moved out into nlm_host_rebooted (which calls nlmclnt_recovery which starts a thread which runs reclaimer). Also host_rebooted now finds an nsm_handle rather than a host, then then iterates over all hosts and deals with each host that shares that nsm_handle.

This patch introduces the nsm_handle, which is shared by all nlm_host objects referring to the same client. With this patch applied, all nlm_hosts from the same address will share the same nsm_handle. A future patch will add sharing by name. Note: this patch changes h_name so that it is no longer guaranteed to be an IP address of the host. When the host represents an NFS server, h_name will be the name passed in the mount call. When the host represents a client, h_name will be the name presented in the lock request received from the client. A h_name is only used for printing informational messages, this change should not be significant.

Speed up high call-rate workloads by caching the struct ip_map for the peer on the connected struct svc_sock instead of looking it up in the ip_map cache hashtable on every call. This helps workloads using AUTH_SYS authentication over TCP. Testing was on a 4 CPU 4 NIC Altix using 4 IRIX clients, each with 16 synthetic client threads simulating an rsync (i.e. recursive directory listing) workload reading from an i386 RH9 install image (161480 regular files in 10841 directories) on the server. That tree is small enough to fill in the server's RAM so no disk traffic was involved. This setup gives a sustained call rate in excess of 60000 calls/sec before being CPU-bound on the server. Profiling showed strcmp(), called from ip_map_match(), was taking 4.8% of each CPU, and ip_map_lookup() was taking 2.9%. This patch drops both contribution into the profile noise. Note that the above result overstates this value of this patch for most workloads. The synthetic clients are all using separate IP addresses, so there are 64 entries in the ip_map cache hash. Because the kernel measured contained the bug fixed in commit commit 1f1e030b and was running on 64bit little-endian machine, probably all of those 64 entries were on a single chain, thus increasing the cost of ip_map_lookup(). With a modern kernel you would need more clients to see the same amount of performance improvement. This patch has helped to scale knfsd to handle a deployment with 2000 NFS clients.

Make the nfsd read-ahead params cache more SMP-friendly by changing the single global list and lock into a fixed 16-bucket hashtable with per-bucket locks. This reduces spinlock contention in nfsd_read() on read-heavy workloads on multiprocessor servers. Testing was on a 4 CPU 4 NIC Altix using 4 IRIX clients each doing 1K streaming reads at full line rate. The server had 128 nfsd threads, which sizes the RA cache at 256 entries, of which only a handful were used. Flat profiling shows nfsd_read(), including the inlined nfsd_get_raparms(), taking 10.4% of each CPU. This patch drops the contribution from nfsd() to 1.71% for each CPU.

The limit over UDP remains at 32K. Also, make some of the apparently arbitrary sizing constants clearer. The biggest change here involves replacing NFSSVC_MAXBLKSIZE by a function of the rqstp. This allows it to be different for different protocols (udp/tcp) and also allows it to depend on the servers declared sv_bufsiz. Note that we don't actually increase sv_bufsz for nfs yet.

.. by allocating the array of 'kvec' in 'struct svc_rqst'. As we plan to increase RPCSVC_MAXPAGES from 8 upto 256, we can no longer allocate an array of this size on the stack. So we allocate it in 'struct svc_rqst'. However svc_rqst contains (indirectly) an array of the same type and size (actually several, but they are in a union). So rather than waste space, we move those arrays out of the separately allocated union and into svc_rqst to share with the kvec moved out of svc_tcp_recvfrom (various arrays are used at different times, so there is no conflict).

We are planning to increase RPCSVC_MAXPAGES from about 8 to about 256. This means we need to be a bit careful about arrays of size RPCSVC_MAXPAGES. struct svc_rqst contains two such arrays. However the there are never more that RPCSVC_MAXPAGES pages in the two arrays together, so only one array is needed. The two arrays are for the pages holding the request, and the pages holding the reply. Instead of two arrays, we can simply keep an index into where the first reply page is. This patch also removes a number of small inline functions that probably server to obscure what is going on rather than clarify it, and opencode the needed functionality. Also remove the 'rq_restailpage' variable as it is *always* 0. i.e. if the response 'xdr' structure has a non-empty tail it is always in the same pages as the head. check counters are initilised and incr properly check for consistant usage of ++ etc maybe extra some inlines for common approach general review Signed-off-by: Neil Brown <neilb@suse.de> Cc: Magnus Maatta <novell@kiruna.se> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
