2006-04-11[PATCH] knfsd: nfsd: oops exporting nonexistent directoryNeilBrown
Export a directory that does not exist: exportfs -orw,fsid=0,insecure,no_subtree_check client:/home/NFS4 Try to mount from client with nfs4. Mount hangs (I'm not sure why - that's another issue). While client is hung, back on server mkdir /home/NFS4 The server panics in dput. I traced the problem back to svc_export_parse() calling path_release() even though path_lookup() failed (it happens to fill in the nameidata structure with a negative dentry - so the test after out: succeeds). After patching, an recreating the problem, the client mount still takes some time before finally exiting with a message "couldn't read superblock". Here is a simple patch to resolve this issue: Signed-off-by: Frank Filz <ffilzlnx@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: J.

2006-03-27[PATCH] knfsd: Get rid of 'inplace' sunrpc cachesNeilBrown
These were an unnecessary wart. Also only have one 'DefineSimpleCache..' instead of two. Signed-off-by: Neil Brown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2006-03-27[PATCH] knfsd: Break the hard linkage from svc_expkey to svc_exportNeilBrown
Current svc_expkey holds a pointer to the svc_export structure, so updates to that structure have to be in-place, which is a wart on the whole cache infrastruct. So we break that linkage and just do a second lookup. If this became a performance issue, it would be possible to put a direct link back in which was only used conditionally. i.e. when an object is replaced in the cache, we set a flag in the old object. When dereferencing the link from svc_expkey, if the flag is set, we drop the reference and do a fresh lookup.

2006-03-27[PATCH] knfsd: Change the store of auth_domains to not be a 'cache'NeilBrown
The 'auth_domain's are simply handles on internal data structures. They do not cache information from user-space, and forcing them into the mold of a 'cache' misrepresents their true nature and causes confusion.

2005-09-07[PATCH] sunrpc: cache_register can use wrong module referenceBruce Allan
When registering an RPC cache, cache_register() always sets the owner as the sunrpc module. However, there are RPC caches owned by other modules. With the incorrect owner setting, the real owning module can be removed potentially with an open reference to the cache from userspace. For example, if one were to stop the nfs server and unmount the nfsd filesystem, the nfsd module could be removed eventhough rpc.idmapd had references to the idtoname and nametoid caches (i.e. /proc/net/rpc/nfs4.<cachename>/channel is still open). This resulted in a system panic on one of our machines when attempting to restart the nfs services after reloading the nfsd module. The following patch adds a 'struct module *owner' field in struct cache_detail. The owner is further assigned to the struct proc_dir_entry in cache_register() so that the module cannot be unloaded while user-space daemons have an open reference on the associated file under /proc.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
