2013-09-06rpc: fix huge kmalloc's in gss-proxyJ. Bruce Fields
The reply to a gssproxy can include up to NGROUPS_MAX gid's, which will take up more than a page. We therefore need to allocate an array of pages to hold the reply instead of trying to allocate a single huge buffer. Tested-by: Simo Sorce <simo@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: J.

2013-09-06rpc: comment on linux_cred encoding, treat all as unsignedJ. Bruce Fields
The encoding of linux creds is a bit confusing. Also: I think in practice it doesn't really matter whether we treat any of these things as signed or unsigned, but unsigned seems more straightforward: uid_t/gid_t are unsigned and it simplifies the ngroups overflow check.

2013-09-06rpc: clean up decoding of gssproxy linux credsJ. Bruce Fields
We can use the normal coding infrastructure here. Two minor behavior changes: - we're assuming no wasted space at the end of the linux cred. That seems to match gss-proxy's behavior, and I can't see why it would need to do differently in the future. - NGROUPS_MAX check added: note groups_alloc doesn't do this, this is the caller's responsibility.

Conflicts: drivers/net/ethernet/stmicro/stmmac/stmmac_platform.c net/bridge/br_multicast.c net/ipv6/sit.c The conflicts were minor: 1) sit.c changes overlap with change to ip_tunnel_xmit() signature. 2) br_multicast.c had an overlap between computing max_delay using msecs_to_jiffies and turning MLDV2_MRC() into an inline function with a name using lowercase instead of uppercase letters. 3) stmmac had two overlapping changes, one which conditionally allocated and hooked up a dma_cfg based upon the presence of the pbl OF property, and another one handling store-and-forward DMA made. The latter of which should not go into the new of_find_property() basic block. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2013-09-03SUNRPC new rpc_credops to test credential expiryAndy Adamson
This patch provides the RPC layer helper functions to allow NFS to manage data in the face of expired credentials - such as avoiding buffered WRITEs and COMMITs when the gss context will expire before the WRITEs are flushed and COMMITs are sent. These helper functions enable checking the expiration of an underlying credential key for a generic rpc credential, e.g. the gss_cred gss context gc_expiry which for Kerberos is set to the remaining TGT lifetime. A new rpc_authops key_timeout is only defined for the generic auth. A new rpc_credops crkey_to_expire is only defined for the generic cred. A new rpc_credops crkey_timeout is only defined for the gss cred. Set a credential key expiry watermark, RPC_KEY_EXPIRE_TIMEO set to 240 seconds as a default and can be set via a module parameter as we need to ensure there is time for any dirty data to be flushed. If key_timeout is called on a credential with an underlying credential key that will expire within watermark seconds, we set the RPC_CRED_KEY_EXPIRE_SOON flag in the generic_cred acred so that the NFS layer can clean up prior to key expiration. Checking a generic credential's underlying credential involves a cred lookup. To avoid this lookup in the normal case when the underlying credential has a key that is valid (before the watermark), a notify flag is set in the generic credential the first time the key_timeout is called. The generic credential then stops checking the underlying credential key expiry, and the underlying credential (gss_cred) match routine then checks the key expiration upon each normal use and sets a flag in the associated generic credential only when the key expiration is within the watermark. This in turn signals the generic credential key_timeout to perform the extra credential lookup thereafter.

2013-08-28SUNRPC: Fix memory corruption issue on 32-bit highmem systemsTrond Myklebust
Some architectures, such as ARM-32 do not return the same base address when you call kmap_atomic() twice on the same page. This causes problems for the memmove() call in the XDR helper routine "_shift_data_right_pages()", since it defeats the detection of overlapping memory ranges, and has been seen to corrupt memory. The fix is to distinguish between the case where we're doing an inter-page copy or not. In the former case of we know that the memory ranges cannot possibly overlap, so we can additionally micro-optimise by replacing memmove() with memcpy().

2013-08-07SUNRPC: If the rpcbind channel is disconnected, fail the call to unregisterTrond Myklebust
If rpcbind causes our connection to the AF_LOCAL socket to close after we've registered a service, then we want to be careful about reconnecting since the mount namespace may have changed. By simply refusing to reconnect the AF_LOCAL socket in the case of unregister, we avoid the need to somehow save the mount namespace. While this may lead to some services not unregistering properly, it should be safe.

2013-08-01NFSD/sunrpc: avoid deadlock on TCP connection due to memory pressure.NeilBrown
Since we enabled auto-tuning for sunrpc TCP connections we do not guarantee that there is enough write-space on each connection to queue a reply. If memory pressure causes the window to shrink too small, the request throttling in sunrpc/svc will not accept any requests so no more requests will be handled. Even when pressure decreases the window will not grow again until data is sent on the connection. This means we get a deadlock: no requests will be handled until there is more space, and no space will be allocated until a request is handled. This can be simulated by modifying svc_tcp_has_wspace to inflate the number of byte required and removing the 'svc_sock_setbufsize' calls in svc_setup_socket. I found that multiplying by 16 was enough to make the requirement exceed the default allocation. With this modification in place: mount -o vers=3,proto=tcp 127.0.0.1:/home /mnt would block and eventually time out because the nfs server could not accept any requests. This patch relaxes the request throttling to always allow at least one request through per connection. It does this by checking both sk_stream_min_wspace() and xprt->xpt_reserved are zero. The first is zero when the TCP transmit queue is empty. The second is zero when there are no RPC requests being processed. When both of these are zero the socket is idle and so one more request can safely be allowed through. Applying this patch allows the above mount command to succeed cleanly. Tracing shows that the allocated write buffer space quickly grows and after a few requests are handled, the extra tests are no longer needed to permit further requests to be processed. The main purpose of request throttling is to handle the case when one client is slow at collecting replies and the send queue gets full of replies that the client hasn't acknowledged (at the TCP level) yet. As we only change behaviour when the send queue is empty this main purpose is still preserved. Reported-by: Ben Myers <bpm@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: J.
