2008-10-14NFS: Fix the resolution problem with nfs_inode_attrs_need_update()Trond Myklebust
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. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

2008-10-10RPC/RDMA: ensure connection attempt is complete before signalling.Tom Talpey

2008-10-10RPC/RDMA: correct the reconnect timer backoffTom Talpey
The RPC/RDMA code had a constant 5-second reconnect backoff, and always performed it, even when re-establishing a connection to a server after the RPC layer closed it due to being idle. Make it an geometric backoff (up to 30 seconds), and don't delay idle reconnect. Signed-off-by: Tom Talpey <talpey@netapp.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

The xprt_connect call path does not expect such errors as ECONNREFUSED to be returned from failed transport connection attempts, otherwise it translates them to EIO and signals fatal errors.

2008-10-10RPC/RDMA: fix connection IRD/ORD settingTom Tucker
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. Signed-off-by: Tom Tucker <tom@opengridcomputing.com> Acked-by: Tom Talpey <talpey@netapp.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

2008-10-10NFS: fix nfs_parse_ip_address() corner caseChuck Lever
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. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: J.

2008-10-09NFS: Fix attribute updatesTrond Myklebust
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.

2008-10-07sunrpc: fix oops in rpc_create when the mount namespace is unsharedCedric Le Goater
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.

2008-10-07NFS: Client mounts hang when exported directory do not existSteve Dickson
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.

2008-10-07SUNRPC: Fix autobind on cloned rpc clientsTrond Myklebust
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...

2008-10-07NFS: SETCLIENTID truncates client ID and netidChuck Lever
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.

2008-10-07nfs: authenticated deep mountingEG Keizer
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 Signed-off-by: E.G.

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. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2008-10-07NFS: Clean up nfs_refresh_inode() and nfs_post_op_update_inode()Trond Myklebust
Try to avoid taking and dropping the inode->i_lock more than once. Do so by moving the code in nfs_refresh_inode() that needs to be done under the spinlock into a function nfs_refresh_inode_locked(), and then having both nfs_refresh_inode() and nfs_post_op_update_inode() call it directly.

2008-10-07NFS: Add mount options for controlling the lookup cacheTrond Myklebust
Add the following NFS-specific mount options to the parser. -o lookupcache=all /* Default: cache positive & negative dentries */ -o lookupcache=pos[itive] /* Don't cache negative dentries */ -o lookupcache=none /* Strict revalidation of all dentries */ Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2008-10-07NFS: Don't apply NFS_MOUNT_FLAGMASK to text-based mountsTrond Myklebust
The point of introducing text-based mounts was to allow us to add functionality without having to worry about legacy binary mount formats. The mask should be there in order to ensure that binary formats don't start enabling features that they cannot support. There is no justification for applying it to the text mount path.

2008-10-07NFS: Add options for finer control of the lookup cacheTrond Myklebust
Add the flag NFS_MOUNT_LOOKUP_CACHE_NONEG to turn off the caching of negative dentries. In reality what we do is to force nfs_lookup_revalidate() to always discard negative dentries. Add the flag NFS_MOUNT_LOOKUP_CACHE_NONE for enforcing stricter revalidation of dentries. It forces the revalidate code to always do a lookup instead of just checking the cached mtime of the parent directory. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
