RFC3530 states that the registered port 2049 for the NFS protocol should be the default configuration in order to allow clients not to use the RPC binding protocols. If the mount program sends us a port=0, we therefore substitute port=2049. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

Currently, a read() request will return EIO even if the file has been deleted on the server, simply because that is what the VM will return if the call to readpage() fails to update the page. Ensure that readpage() marks the inode as stale if it receives an ESTALE. Then return that error to userland. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

If the open intents tell us that a given lookup is going to result in a, exclusive create, we currently optimize away the lookup call itself. The reason is that the lookup would not be atomic with the create RPC call, so why do it in the first place? A problem occurs, however, if the VFS aborts the exclusive create operation after the lookup, but before the call to create the file/directory: in this case we will end up with a hashed negative dentry in the dcache that has never been looked up. Fix this by only actually hashing the dentry once the create operation has been successfully completed. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

There is no guarantee that the parent task still exists when we exit from the portmapper. Save the xprt instead. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

Currently the NFS client does not cache symlinks it creates. They get cached only when the NFS client reads them back from the server. Copy the symlink into the page cache before sending it.

If the LOOKUP or GETATTR in nfs_instantiate fail, nfs_instantiate will do a d_drop before returning. But some callers already do a d_drop in the case of an error return. Make certain we do only one d_drop in all error paths. This issue was introduced because over time, the symlink proc API diverged slightly from the create/mkdir/mknod proc API. To prevent other coding mistakes of this type, change the symlink proc API to be more like create/mkdir/mknod and move the nfs_instantiate call into the symlink proc routines so it is used in exactly the same way for create, mkdir, mknod, and symlink.

In the early days of NFS, there was no duplicate reply cache on the server. Thus retransmitted non-idempotent requests often found that the request had already completed on the server. To avoid passing an unanticipated return code to unsuspecting applications, NFS clients would often shunt error codes that implied the request had been retried but already completed. Thanks to NFS over TCP, duplicate reply caches on the server, and network performance and reliability improvements, it is safe to remove such checks. Test plan: None.

This patch is optional. It has been suggested that the RPC client internal functions used by upper layer protocols (such as NFS) be exported via EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL. This patch does that.

The two function call API for creating a new RPC client is now obsolete. Remove it. Also, remove an unnecessary check to see whether the caller is capable of using privileged network services. The kernel RPC client always uses a privileged ephemeral port by default; callers are responsible for checking the authority of users to make use of any RPC service, or for specifying that a nonprivileged port is acceptable. Test plan: Repeated runs of Connectathon locking suite. Check network trace to ensure correctness of NLM requests and replies.

Replace xprt_create_proto/rpc_create_client with new rpc_create() interface in the Network Lock Manager.

Prepare for more generic transport endpoint handling needed by transports that might use different forms of addressing, such as IPv6. Introduce a single function call to replace the two-call xprt_create_proto/rpc_create_client API. Define a new rpc_create_args structure that allows callers to pass in remote endpoint addresses of varying length. Test-plan: Compile kernel with CONFIG_NFS enabled.

IPv6 addresses are big (128 bytes). Now that no RPC client consumers treat the addr field in rpc_xprt structs as an opaque, and access it only via the API calls, we can safely widen the field in the rpc_xprt struct to accomodate larger addresses.

Provide an API for formatting the remote peer address for printing without exposing its internal structure. The address could be dynamic, so we support a function call to get the address rather than reading it straight out of a structure. Test-plan: Destructive testing (unplugging the network temporarily).
