2009-09-24nfs[23] tcp breakage in mount with binary optionsAl Viro
We forget to set nfs_server.protocol in tcp case when old-style binary options are passed to mount. The thing remains zero and never validated afterwards. As the result, we hit BUG in fs/nfs/client.c:588. Breakage has been introduced in NFS: Add nfs_alloc_parsed_mount_data merged yesterday...

2009-09-23NFS: Propagate 'fsc' mount option through automountsDavid Howells
Propagate the NFS 'fsc' mount option through NFS automounts of various types. This is now required as commit: commit c02d7adf8c5429727a98bad1d039bccad4c61c50 Author: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com> Date: Mon Jun 22 15:09:14 2009 -0400 NFSv4: Replace nfs4_path_walk() with VFS path lookup in a private namespace uses VFS-driven automounting to reach all submounts barring the root, thus preventing fscaching from being enabled on any submount other than the root. This patch gets around that by propagating the NFS_OPTION_FSCACHE flag across automounts. If a uniquifier is supplied to a mount then this is propagated to all automounts of that mount too.

2009-08-23NFS: Handle a zero-length auth flavor listChuck Lever
Some releases of Linux rpc.mountd (nfs-utils 1.1.4 and later) return an empty auth flavor list if no sec= was specified for the export. This is notably broken server behavior. The new auth flavor list checking added in a recent commit rejects this case. The OpenSolaris client does too. The broken mountd implementation is already widely deployed. To avoid a behavioral regression, the kernel's mount client skips flavor checking (ie reverts to the pre-2.6.32 behavior) if mountd returns an empty flavor list.

2009-08-09NFS: Use the authentication flavor list returned by mountdChuck Lever
Commit a14017db added support in the kernel's NFS mount client to decode the authentication flavor list returned by mountd. The NFS client can now use this list to determine whether the authentication flavor requested by the user is actually supported by the server. Note we don't actually negotiate the security flavor if none was specified by the user. Instead, we try to use AUTH_SYS, and fail if the server does not support it. This prevents us from negotiating an inappropriate security flavor (some servers list AUTH_NULL first). If the server does not support AUTH_SYS, the user must provide an appropriate security flavor by specifying the "sec=" mount option.

2009-08-09NFS: Fix auth flavor len accountingChuck Lever
Previous logic in the NFS mount parsing code path assumed auth_flavor_len was set to zero for simple authentication flavors (like AUTH_UNIX), and 1 for compound flavors (like AUTH_GSS). At some earlier point (maybe even before the option parsers were merged?) specific checks for auth_flavor_len being zero were removed from the functions that validate the mount option that sets the mount point's authentication flavor. Since we are populating an array for authentication flavors, the auth_flavor_len should always be set to the number of flavors. Let's eliminate some cleverness here, and prepare for new logic that needs to know the number of flavors in the auth_flavors[] array. (auth_flavors[] is an array because at some point we want to allow a list of acceptable authentication flavors to be specified via the sec= mount option. For now it remains a single element array).

As noted in the previous patch, the NFSv4 client mount code currently has several limitations. If the mount path contains symlinks, or referrals, or even if it just contains a '..', then the client code in nfs4_path_walk() will fail with an error.

2009-06-17NFS: More "sloppy" parsing problemsChuck Lever
Specifying "port=-5" with the kernel's current mount option parser generates "unrecognized mount option". If "sloppy" is set, this causes the mount to succeed and use the default values; the desired behavior is that, since this is a valid option with an invalid value, the mount should fail, even with "sloppy." To properly handle "sloppy" parsing, we need to distinguish between correct options with invalid values, and incorrect options. We will need to parse integer values by hand, therefore, and not rely on match_token(). For instance, these must all fail with "invalid value": port=12345678 port=-5 port=samuel and not with "unrecognized option," as they do currently. Thus, for the sake of match_token() we need to treat the values for these options as strings, and do the conversion to integers using strict_strtol(). This is basically the same solution we used for the earlier "retry=" fix (commit ecbb3845), except in this case the kernel actually has to parse the value, rather than ignore it.

2009-06-17NFS: Invalid mount option values should always fail, even with "sloppy"Chuck Lever
Ian Kent reports: "I've noticed a couple of other regressions with the options vers and proto option of mount.nfs(8). The commands: mount -t nfs -o vers=<invalid version> <server>:/<path> /<mountpoint> mount -t nfs -o proto=<invalid proto> <server>:/<path> /<mountpoint> both immediately fail. But if the "-s" option is also used they both succeed with the mount falling back to defaults (by the look of it). In the past these failed even when the sloppy option was given, as I think they should. I believe the sloppy option is meant to allow the mount command to still function for mount options (for example in shared autofs maps) that exist on other Unix implementations but aren't present in the Linux mount.nfs(8). So, an invalid value specified for a known mount option is different to an unknown mount option and should fail appropriately." See RH bugzilla 486266.

2009-04-03NFS: Add mount options to enable local caching on NFSDavid Howells
Add NFS mount options to allow the local caching support to be enabled. The attached patch makes it possible for the NFS filesystem to be told to make use of the network filesystem local caching service (FS-Cache). To be able to use this, a recent nfsutils package is required. There are three variant NFS mount options that can be added to a mount command to control caching for a mount. Only the last one specified takes effect: (*) Adding "fsc" will request caching. (*) Adding "fsc=<string>" will request caching and also specify a uniquifier. (*) Adding "nofsc" will disable caching. For example: mount warthog:/ /a -o fsc The cache of a particular superblock (NFS FSID) will be shared between all mounts of that volume, provided they have the same connection parameters and are not marked 'nosharecache'. Where it is otherwise impossible to distinguish superblocks because all the parameters are identical, but the 'nosharecache' option is supplied, a uniquifying string must be supplied, else only the first mount will be permitted to use the cache. If there's a key collision, then the second mount will disable caching and give a warning into the kernel log.

2009-04-03NFS: Define and create superblock-level objectsDavid Howells
Define and create superblock-level cache index objects (as managed by nfs_server structs). Each superblock object is created in a server level index object and is itself an index into which inode-level objects are inserted. Ideally there would be one superblock-level object per server, and the former would be folded into the latter; however, since the "nosharecache" option exists this isn't possible. The superblock object key is a sequence consisting of: (1) Certain superblock s_flags. (2) Various connection parameters that serve to distinguish superblocks for sget(). (3) The volume FSID. (4) The security flavour. (5) The uniquifier length. (6) The uniquifier text. This is normally an empty string, unless the fsc=xyz mount option was used to explicitly specify a uniquifier. The key blob is of variable length, depending on the length of (6). The superblock object is given no coherency data to carry in the auxiliary data permitted by the cache. It is assumed that the superblock is always coherent. This patch also adds uniquification handling such that two otherwise identical superblocks, at least one of which is marked "nosharecache", won't end up trying to share the on-disk cache. It will be possible to manually provide a uniquifier through a mount option with a later patch to avoid the error otherwise produced.

2008-12-23NFS: "[no]resvport" mount option changes mountd client tooChuck Lever
If the admin has specified the "noresvport" option for an NFS mount point, the kernel's NFS client uses an unprivileged source port for the main NFS transport.

2008-12-23NFS: add "[no]resvport" mount optionChuck Lever
The standard default security setting for NFS is AUTH_SYS. An NFS client connects to NFS servers via a privileged source port and a fixed standard destination port (2049). The client sends raw uid and gid numbers to identify users making NFS requests, and the server assumes an appropriate authority on the client has vetted these values because the source port is privileged. On Linux, by default in-kernel RPC services use a privileged port in the range between 650 and 1023 to avoid using source ports of well- known IP services. Using such a small range limits the number of NFS mount points and the number of unique NFS servers to which a client can connect concurrently. An NFS client can use unprivileged source ports to expand the range of source port numbers, allowing more concurrent server connections and more NFS mount points. Servers must explicitly allow NFS connections from unprivileged ports for this to work. In the past, bumping the value of the sunrpc.max_resvport sysctl on the client would permit the NFS client to use unprivileged ports. Bumping this setting also changes the maximum port number used by other in-kernel RPC services, some of which still required a port number less than 1023. This is exacerbated by the way source port numbers are chosen by the Linux RPC client, which starts at the top of the range and works downwards. It means that bumping the maximum means all RPC services requesting a source port will likely get an unprivileged port instead of a privileged one. Changing this setting effects all NFS mount points on a client. A sysadmin could not selectively choose which mount points would use non-privileged ports and which could not. Lastly, this mechanism of expanding the limit on the number of NFS mount points was entirely undocumented. To address the need for the NFS client to use a large range of source ports without interfering with the activity of other in-kernel RPC services, we introduce a new NFS mount option. This option explicitly tells only the NFS client to use a non-privileged source port when communicating with the NFS server for one specific mount point. This new mount option is called "resvport," like the similar NFS mount option on FreeBSD and Mac OS X. A sister patch for nfs-utils will be submitted that documents this new option in nfs(5). The default setting for this new mount option requires the NFS client to use a privileged port, as before. Explicitly specifying the "noresvport" mount option allows the NFS client to use an unprivileged source port for this mount point when connecting to the NFS server port. This mount option is supported only for text-based NFS mounts. [ Sidebar: it is widely known that security mechanisms based on the use of privileged source ports are ineffective. However, the NFS client can combine the use of unprivileged ports with the use of secure authentication mechanisms, such as Kerberos. This allows a large number of connections and mount points while ensuring a useful level of security. Eventually we may change the default setting for this option depending on the security flavor used for the mount. For example, if the mount is using only AUTH_SYS, then the default setting will be "resvport;" if the mount is using a strong security flavor such as krb5, the default setting will be "noresvport." ] Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> [Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com: Fixed a bug whereby nfs4_init_client() was being called with incorrect arguments.] Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

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).
