2008-12-23NFSv4: Fix up the dereferencing of delegation->inodeTrond Myklebust
Without an extra lock, we cannot just assume that the delegation->inode is valid when we're traversing the rcu-protected nfs_client lists. Use the delegation->lock to ensure that it is truly valid. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2008-12-23NFSv4: Fix up another delegation related raceTrond Myklebust
When we can update_open_stateid(), we need to be certain that we don't race with a delegation return. While we could do this by grabbing the nfs_client->cl_lock, a dedicated spin lock in the delegation structure will scale better. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2008-12-23NLM: allow lockd requests from an unprivileged portChuck Lever

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>
2008-12-23NFS: move nfs_server flag initializationChuck Lever
Make it possible for the NFSv4 mount set up logic to pass mount option flags down the stack to nfs_create_rpc_client(). This is immediately useful if we want NFS mount options to modulate settings of the underlying RPC transport, but it may be useful at some later point if other parts of the NFSv4 mount initialization logic want to know what the mount options are.

2008-12-23NFS: expand flags passed to nfs_create_rpc_client()Chuck Lever
The nfs_create_rpc_client() function sets up an RPC client for an NFS mount point. Add an option that allows it to set up an RPC transport from an unprivileged port. Instead of having nfs_create_rpc_client()'s callers retain local knowledge about how to set up an RPC client, create a couple of flag arguments to control the use of RPC_CLNT_CREATE flags.

2008-12-23lockd: convert reclaimer thread to kthread interfaceJeff Layton
My understanding is that there is a push to turn the kernel_thread interface into a non-exported symbol and move all kernel threads to use the kthread API. This patch changes lockd to use kthread_run to spawn the reclaimer thread. I've made the assumption here that the extra module references taken when we spawn this thread are unnecessary and removed them. I've also added a KERN_ERR printk that pops if the thread can't be spawned to warn the admin that the locks won't be reclaimed. In the future, it would be nice to be able to notify userspace that locks have been lost (probably by implementing SIGLOST), and adding some good policies about how long we should reattempt to reclaim the locks. Finally, I removed a comment about memory leaks that I believe is obsolete and added a new one to clarify the result of sending a SIGKILL to the reclaimer thread. As best I can tell, doing so doesn't actually cause a memory leak. I consider this patch 2.6.29 material.

2008-12-23nfs: remove redundant tests on reading new pagesWu Fengguang
aops->readpages() and its NFS helper readpage_async_filler() will only be called to do readahead I/O for newly allocated pages. So it's not necessary to test for the always 0 dirty/uptodate page flags. The removal of nfs_wb_page() call also fixes a readahead bug: the NFS readahead has been synchronous since 2.6.23, because that call will clear PG_readahead, which is the reminder for asynchronous readahead. More background: the PG_readahead page flag is shared with PG_reclaim, one for read path and the other for write path. clear_page_dirty_for_io() unconditionally clears PG_readahead to prevent possible readahead residuals, assuming itself to be always called in the write path. However, NFS is one and the only exception in that it _always_ calls clear_page_dirty_for_io() in the read path, i.e. for readpages()/readpage().

2008-12-22[XFS] Fix speculative allocation beyond eofLachlan McIlroy
Speculative allocation beyond eof doesn't work properly. It was broken some time ago after a code cleanup that moved what is now xfs_iomap_eof_align_last_fsb() and xfs_iomap_eof_want_preallocate() out of xfs_iomap_write_delay() into separate functions. The code used to use the current file size in various checks but got changed to be max(file_size, i_new_size). Since i_new_size is the result of 'offset + count' then in xfs_iomap_eof_want_preallocate() the check for '(offset + count) <= isize' will always be true. ie if 'offset + count' is > ip->i_size then isize will be i_new_size and equal to 'offset + count'. This change fixes all the places that used to use the current file size. Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Lachlan McIlroy <lachlan@sgi.com>

2008-12-10revert "percpu_counter: new function percpu_counter_sum_and_set"Andrew Morton
Revert commit e8ced39d5e8911c662d4d69a342b9d053eaaac4e Author: Mingming Cao <cmm@us.ibm.com> Date: Fri Jul 11 19:27:31 2008 -0400 percpu_counter: new function percpu_counter_sum_and_set As described in revert "percpu counter: clean up percpu_counter_sum_and_set()" the new percpu_counter_sum_and_set() is racy against updates to the cpu-local accumulators on other CPUs. Revert that change. This means that ext4 will be slow again. But correct. Reported-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Cc: "David S.
