2010-01-06nfsd: make sure data is on disk before calling ->fsyncChristoph Hellwig
nfsd is not using vfs_fsync, so I missed it when changing the calling convention during the 2.6.32 window. This patch fixes it to not only start the data writeout, but also wait for it to complete before calling into ->fsync.

2009-12-15nfsd: restrict filehandles accepted in V4ROOT caseSteve Dickson
On V4ROOT exports, only accept filehandles that are the *root* of some export. This allows mountd to allow or deny access to individual directories and symlinks on the pseudofilesystem. Note that the checks in readdir and lookup are not enough, since a malicious host with access to the network could guess filehandles that they weren't able to obtain through lookup or readdir.

If /A/mount/point/ has filesystem "B" mounted on top of it, and if "A" is exported, but not "B", then the nfs server has always returned to the client a filehandle for the mountpoint, instead of for the root of "B", allowing the client to see the subtree of "A" that would otherwise be hidden by B. Disable this behavior in the case of V4ROOT exports; we implement the path restrictions of V4ROOT exports by treating *every* directory as if it were a mountpoint, and allowing traversal *only* if the new directory is exported.

2009-09-02CRED: Add some configurable debugging [try #6]David Howells
Add a config option (CONFIG_DEBUG_CREDENTIALS) to turn on some debug checking for credential management. The additional code keeps track of the number of pointers from task_structs to any given cred struct, and checks to see that this number never exceeds the usage count of the cred struct (which includes all references, not just those from task_structs). Furthermore, if SELinux is enabled, the code also checks that the security pointer in the cred struct is never seen to be invalid. This attempts to catch the bug whereby inode_has_perm() faults in an nfsd kernel thread on seeing cred->security be a NULL pointer (it appears that the credential struct has been previously released): http://www.kerneloops.org/oops.php?number=252883 Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: James Morris <jmorris@namei.org>
2009-07-03NFSD: Don't hold unrefcounted creds over call to nfsd_setuser()David Howells
nfsd_open() gets an unrefcounted pointer to the current process's effective credentials at the top of the function, then calls nfsd_setuser() via fh_verify() - which may replace and destroy the current process's effective credentials - and then passes the unrefcounted pointer to dentry_open() - but the credentials may have been destroyed by this point. Instead, the value from current_cred() should be passed directly to dentry_open() as one of its arguments, rather than being cached in a variable. Possibly fh_verify() should return the creds to use. This is a regression introduced by 745ca2475a6ac596e3d8d37c2759c0fbe2586227 "CRED: Pass credentials through dentry_open()".

2009-06-15nfsd: Use write gathering only with NFSv2Trond Myklebust
NFSv3 and above can use unstable writes whenever they are sending more than one write, rather than relying on the flaky write gathering heuristics. More often than not, write gathering is currently getting it wrong when the NFSv3 clients are sending a single write with FILE_SYNC for efficiency reasons. This patch turns off write gathering for NFSv3/v4, and ensures that it only applies to the one case that can actually benefit: namely NFSv2.

2009-05-28integrity: nfsd imbalance bug fixMimi Zohar
An nfsd exported file is opened/closed by the kernel causing the integrity imbalance message. Before a file is opened, there normally is permission checking, which is done in inode_permission(). However, as integrity checking requires a dentry and mount point, which is not available in inode_permission(), the integrity (permission) checking must be called separately. In order to detect any missing integrity checking calls, we keep track of file open/closes. ima_path_check() increments these counts and does the integrity (permission) checking. As a result, the number of calls to ima_path_check()/ima_file_free() should be balanced. An extra call to fput(), indicates the file could have been accessed without first calling ima_path_check(). In nfsv3 permission checking is done once, followed by multiple reads, which do an open/close for each read. The integrity (permission) checking call should be in nfsd_permission() after the inode_permission() call, but as there is no correlation between the number of permission checking and open calls, the integrity checking call should not increment the counters, but defer it to when the file is actually opened. This patch adds: - integrity (permission) checking for nfsd exported files in nfsd_permission(). - a call to increment counts for files opened by nfsd. This patch has been updated to return the nfs error types. Signed-off-by: Mimi Zohar <zohar@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: James Morris <jmorris@namei.org>
2009-05-27nfsd: fix hung up of nfs client while sync write data to nfs serverWei Yongjun
Commit 'Short write in nfsd becomes a full write to the client' (31dec2538e45e9fff2007ea1f4c6bae9f78db724) broken the sync write. With the following commands to reproduce: $ mount -t nfs -o sync 192.168.0.21:/nfsroot /mnt $ cd /mnt $ echo aaaa > temp.txt Then nfs client is hung up. In SYNC mode the server alaways return the write count 0 to the client. This is because the value of host_err in nfsd_vfs_write() will be overwrite in SYNC mode by 'host_err=nfsd_sync(file);', and then we return host_err(which is now 0) as write count. This patch fixed the problem. Signed-off-by: Wei Yongjun <yjwei@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@citi.umich.edu>
2009-04-20Fix i_mutex vs. readdir handling in nfsdDavid Woodhouse
Commit 14f7dd63 ("Copy XFS readdir hack into nfsd code") introduced a bug to generic code which had been extant for a long time in the XFS version -- it started to call through into lookup_one_len() and hence into the file systems' ->lookup() methods without i_mutex held on the directory. This patch fixes it by locking the directory's i_mutex again before calling the filldir functions. The original deadlocks which commit 14f7dd63 was designed to avoid are still avoided, because they were due to fs-internal locking, not i_mutex. While we're at it, fix the return type of nfsd_buffered_readdir() which should be a __be32 not an int -- it's an NFS errno, not a Linux errno. And return nfserrno(-ENOMEM) when allocation fails, not just -ENOMEM. Sparse would have caught that, if it wasn't so busy bitching about __cold__. Commit 05f4f678 ("nfsd4: don't do lookup within readdir in recovery code") introduced a similar problem with calling lookup_one_len() without i_mutex, which this patch also addresses. To fix that, it was necessary to fix the called functions so that they expect i_mutex to be held; that part was done by J. Bruce Fields.

2009-03-18Inconsistent setattr behaviourSachin S. Prabhu
There is an inconsistency seen in the behaviour of nfs compared to other local filesystems on linux when changing owner or group of a directory. If the directory has SUID/SGID flags set, on changing owner or group on the directory, the flags are stripped off on nfs. These flags are maintained on other filesystems such as ext3. To reproduce on a nfs share or local filesystem, run the following commands mkdir test; chmod +s+g test; chown user1 test; ls -ld test On the nfs share, the flags are stripped and the output seen is drwxr-xr-x 2 user1 root 4096 Feb 23 2009 test On other local filesystems(ex: ext3), the flags are not stripped and the output seen is drwsr-sr-x 2 user1 root 4096 Feb 23 13:57 test chown_common() called from sys_chown() will only strip the flags if the inode is not a directory. static int chown_common(struct dentry * dentry, uid_t user, gid_t group) { .. if (!S_ISDIR(inode->i_mode)) newattrs.ia_valid |= ATTR_KILL_SUID | ATTR_KILL_SGID | ATTR_KILL_PRIV; .. } See: http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/7990989775/xsh/chown.html "If the path argument refers to a regular file, the set-user-ID (S_ISUID) and set-group-ID (S_ISGID) bits of the file mode are cleared upon successful return from chown(), unless the call is made by a process with appropriate privileges, in which case it is implementation-dependent whether these bits are altered. If chown() is successfully invoked on a file that is not a regular file, these bits may be cleared. These bits are defined in <sys/stat.h>." The behaviour as it stands does not appear to violate POSIX. However the actions performed are inconsistent when comparing ext3 and nfs.

2009-03-18Short write in nfsd becomes a full write to the clientDavid Shaw
If a filesystem being written to via NFS returns a short write count (as opposed to an error) to nfsd, nfsd treats that as a success for the entire write, rather than the short count that actually succeeded. For example, given a 8192 byte write, if the underlying filesystem only writes 4096 bytes, nfsd will ack back to the nfs client that all 8192 bytes were written. The nfs client does have retry logic for short writes, but this is never called as the client is told the complete write succeeded. There are probably other ways it could happen, but in my case it happened with a fuse (filesystem in userspace) filesystem which can rather easily have a partial write. Here is a patch to properly return the short write count to the client. Signed-off-by: David Shaw <dshaw@jabberwocky.com> Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@citi.umich.edu>
2009-03-18nfsd(v2/v3): fix the failure of creation from HPUX clientwengang wang
sometimes HPUX nfs client sends a create request to linux nfs server(v2/v3). the dump of the request is like: obj_attributes mode: value follows set_it: value follows (1) mode: 00 uid: no value set_it: no value (0) gid: value follows set_it: value follows (1) gid: 8030 size: value follows set_it: value follows (1) size: 0 atime: don't change set_it: don't change (0) mtime: don't change set_it: don't change (0) note that mode is 00(havs no rwx privilege even for the owner) and it requires to set size to 0. as current nfsd(v2/v3) implementation, the server does mainly 2 steps: 1) creates the file in mode specified by calling vfs_create(). 2) sets attributes for the file by calling nfsd_setattr(). at step 2), it finally calls file system specific setattr() function which may fail when checking permission because changing size needs WRITE privilege but it has none since mode is 000. for this case, a new file created, we may simply ignore the request of setting size to 0, so that WRITE privilege is not needed and the open succeeds.

2009-01-07nfsd: fix double-locks of directory mutexJ. Bruce Fields
A number of nfsd operations depend on the i_mutex to cover more code than just the fsync, so the approach of 4c728ef583b3d8 "add a vfs_fsync helper" doesn't work for nfsd. Revert the parts of those patches that touch nfsd. Note: we can't, however, remove the logic from vfs_fsync that was needed only for the special case of nfsd, because a vfs_fsync(NULL,...) call can still result indirectly from a stackable filesystem that was called by nfsd.

2009-01-05add a vfs_fsync helperChristoph Hellwig
Fsync currently has a fdatawrite/fdatawait pair around the method call, and a mutex_lock/unlock of the inode mutex. All callers of fsync have to duplicate this, but we have a few and most of them don't quite get it right. This patch adds a new vfs_fsync that takes care of this. It's a little more complicated as usual as ->fsync might get a NULL file pointer and just a dentry from nfsd, but otherwise gets afile and we want to take the mapping and file operations from it when it is there. Notes on the fsync callers: - ecryptfs wasn't calling filemap_fdatawrite / filemap_fdatawait on the lower file - coda wasn't calling filemap_fdatawrite / filemap_fdatawait on the host file, and returning 0 when ->fsync was missing - shm wasn't calling either filemap_fdatawrite / filemap_fdatawait nor taking i_mutex. Now given that shared memory doesn't have disk backing not doing anything in fsync seems fine and I left it out of the vfs_fsync conversion for now, but in that case we might just not pass it through to the lower file at all but just call the no-op simple_sync_file directly.

Change some task->e?[ug]id to task_e?[ug]id(). In some places it makes more sense to use RCU directly rather than a convenient wrapper; these will be addressed by later patches.

2008-11-09Fix nfsd truncation of readdir resultsDoug Nazar
Commit 8d7c4203 "nfsd: fix failure to set eof in readdir in some situations" introduced a bug: on a directory in an exported ext3 filesystem with dir_index unset, a READDIR will only return about 250 entries, even if the directory was larger. Bisected it back to this commit; reverting it fixes the problem. It turns out that in this case ext3 reads a block at a time, then returns from readdir, which means we can end up with buf.full==0 but with more entries in the directory still to be read. Before 8d7c4203 (but after c002a6c797 "Optimise NFS readdir hack slightly"), this would cause us to return the READDIR result immediately, but with the eof bit unset. That could cause a performance regression (because the client would need more roundtrips to the server to read the whole directory), but no loss in correctness, since the cleared eof bit caused the client to send another readdir. After 8d7c4203, the setting of the eof bit made this a correctness problem. So, move nfserr_eof into the loop and remove the buf.full check so that we loop until buf.used==0. The following seems to do the right thing and reduces the network traffic since we don't return a READDIR result until the buffer is full. Tested on an empty directory & large directory; eof is properly sent and there are no more short buffers.

2008-10-30nfsd: fix failure to set eof in readdir in some situationsJ. Bruce Fields
Before 14f7dd632011bb89c035722edd6ea0d90ca6b078 "[PATCH] Copy XFS readdir hack into nfsd code", readdir_cd->err was reset to eof before each call to vfs_readdir; afterwards, it is set only once. Similarly, c002a6c7977320f95b5edede5ce4e0eeecf291ff "[PATCH] Optimise NFS readdir hack slightly", can cause us to exit without nfserr_eof set. Fix this. This ensures the "eof" bit is set when needed in readdir replies. (The particular case I saw was an nfsv4 readdir of an empty directory, which returned with no entries (the protocol requires "." and ".." to be filtered out), but with eof unset.)

2008-10-23[PATCH] Optimise NFS readdir hack slightly.David Woodhouse
Avoid calling the underlying ->readdir() again when we reached the end already; keep going round the loop only if we stopped due to our own buffer being full.
