The nlm_host_rebooted() function uses nlm_cmp_addr() to find an
nsm_handle that matches the rebooted peer. In order for this to work,
the passed-in address must have a proper address family.
This fixes a post-2.6.28 regression introduced by commit 781b61a6, which
added AF_INET6 support to nlm_cmp_addr(). Before that commit,
nlm_cmp_addr() didn't care about the address family; it compared only
the sin_addr.s_addr field for equality.

Commit 24e36663, which first appeared in 2.6.19, changed lockd so that
the client side starts a UDP listener only if there is a UDP NFSv2/v3
mount. Its description notes:
This... means that lockd will *not* listen on UDP if the only
mounts are TCP mount (and nfsd hasn't started).
The latter is the only one that concerns me at all - I don't know
if this might be a problem with some servers.
Unfortunately it is a problem for Linux itself. The rpc.statd daemon
on Linux uses UDP for contacting the local lockd, no matter which
protocol is used for NFS mounts. Without a local lockd UDP listener,
NFSv2/v3 lock recovery from Linux NFS clients always fails.
Revert parts of commit 24e36663 so lockd_up() always starts both
listeners.

The nlm_reboot structure is used to store information provided by the
NSM_NOTIFY procedure. This procedure is not specified by the NLM or NSM
protocols, other than to say that the procedure can be used to transmit
information private to a particular NLM/NSM implementation.
For Linux, the callback arguments include the name of the monitored host,
the new NSM state of the host, and a 16-byte private opaque.
As a clean up, remove the unused fields and the server-side XDR logic that
decodes them.

lockd accepts SM_NOTIFY calls only from a privileged process on the
local system. If lockd uses an AF_INET6 listener, the sender's address
(ie the local rpc.statd) will be the IPv6 loopback address, not the
IPv4 loopback address.
Make sure the privilege test in nlmsvc_proc_sm_notify() and
nlm4svc_proc_sm_notify() works for both AF_INET and AF_INET6 family
addresses by refactoring the test into a helper and adding support for
IPv6 addresses.

The current lockd does not reject reclaims that arrive outside of the
grace period.
Accepting a reclaim means promising to the client that no conflicting
locks were granted since last it held the lock. We can meet that
promise if we assume the only lockers are nfs clients, and that they are
sufficiently well-behaved to reclaim only locks that they held before,
and that only reclaim locks have been permitted so far. Once we leave
the grace period (and start permitting non-reclaims), we can no longer
keep that promise. So we must start rejecting reclaims at that point.

Rewrite grace period code to unify management of grace period across
lockd and nfsd. The current code has lockd and nfsd cooperate to
compute a grace period which is satisfactory to them both, and then
individually enforce it. This creates a slight race condition, since
the enforcement is not coordinated. It's also more complicated than
necessary.
Here instead we have lockd and nfsd each inform common code when they
enter the grace period, and when they're ready to leave the grace
period, and allow normal locking only after both of them are ready to
leave.
We also expect the locks_start_grace()/locks_end_grace() interface here
to be simpler to build on for future cluster/high-availability work,
which may require (for example) putting individual filesystems into
grace, or enforcing grace periods across multiple cluster nodes.

Note nlm_lookup_host()'s existing IP address hash function has the same

Knowing which source address is used for communicating with remote NLM
services can be helpful for debugging configuration problems on hosts
with multiple addresses.
Keep the dprintk debugging here, but adapt it so it displays AF_INET6
addresses properly. There are also a couple of dprintk clean-ups as
well.
At some point we will aggregate the helpers that display presentation
format addresses into a single set of shared helpers.

End lockd's grace period using schedule_delayed_work() instead of a
check on every pass through the main loop.
After a later patch, we'll depend on lockd to end its grace period even
if it's not currently handling requests; so it shouldn't depend on being
woken up from the main loop to do so.
Also, Nakano Hiroaki (who independently produced a similar patch)
noticed that the current behavior is buggy in the face of jiffies
wraparound:
"lockd uses time_before() to determine whether the grace period
has expired. This would seem to be enough to avoid timer
wrap-around issues, but, unfortunately, that is not the case.
The time_* family of comparison functions can be safely used to
compare jiffies relatively close in time, but they stop working
after approximately LONG_MAX/2 ticks. nfsd can suffer this
problem because the time_before() comparison in lockd() is not
performed until the first request comes in, which means that if
there is no lockd traffic for more than LONG_MAX/2 ticks we are
screwed.
"The implication of this is that once time_before() starts
misbehaving any attempt from a NFS client to execute fcntl()
will be received with a NLM_LCK_DENIED_GRACE_PERIOD message for
25 days (assuming HZ=1000). In other words, the 50 seconds grace
period could turn into a grace period of 50 days or more.
"Note: This bug was analyzed independently by Oda-san
<oda@valinux.co.jp> and myself."

The check here is currently harmless but unnecessary, since, as the
comment notes, there aren't any blocked-lock callbacks to process
during the grace period anyway.
And eventually we want to allow multiple grace periods that come and go
for different filesystems over the course of the lifetime of lockd, at
which point this check is just going to get in the way.

MAINTAINERS: mention lockd and sunrpc in nfs entries
lockd: trivial sparse endian annotations
|

Use a special error value FILE_LOCK_DEFERRED to mean that a locking
operation returned asynchronously. This is returned by
posix_lock_file() for sleeping locks to mean that the lock has been
queued on the block list, and will be woken up when it might become
available and needs to be retried (either fl_lmops->fl_notify() is
called or fl_wait is woken up).
f_op->lock() to mean either the above, or that the filesystem will
call back with fl_lmops->fl_grant() when the result of the locking
operation is known. The filesystem can do this for sleeping as well
as non-sleeping locks.
This is to make sure, that return values of -EAGAIN and -EINPROGRESS by
filesystems are not mistaken to mean an asynchronous locking.
This also makes error handling in fs/locks.c and lockd/svclock.c slightly
cleaner.

of NLM_LCK_DENIED. The latter means the lock request failed because of a

fcntl(F_GETLK) on an nfs client incorrectly returns

always 1.
If the conflicting lock is (0, 4095) the F_GETLK
request for (1024, 10) returns (0, 1), which doesn't
even cover the requested range, and is quite confusing.
The fix is trivial, set fl_end from the fl_end value

as a simple container for parameters that describe a file lock.
The conflicting lock returned from __posix_lock_file is an example of
the latter; so don't call the filesystem or lock manager callbacks when

For high-availability NFS service, we generally need to be able to drop
file locks held on the exported filesystem before moving clients to a
new server. Currently the only way to do that is by shutting down lockd
entirely, which is often undesireable (for example, if you want to
continue exporting other filesystems).
This patch allows the administrator to release all locks held by clients
accessing the client through a given server ip address, by echoing that
address to a new file, /proc/fs/nfsd/unlock_ip, as in:
shell> echo 10.1.1.2 > /proc/fs/nfsd/unlock_ip
The expected sequence of events can be:
1. Tear down the IP address
2. Unexport the path
3. Write IP to /proc/fs/nfsd/unlock_ip to unlock files
4. Signal peer to begin take-over.
For now we only support IPv4 addresses and NFSv2/v3 (NFSv4 locks are not
affected).
Also, if unmounting the filesystem is required, we assume at step 3 that
clients using the given server ip are the only clients holding locks on
the given filesystem; otherwise, an additional patch is required to
allow revoking all locks held by lockd on a given filesystem.

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.
