lockd: fix vfs_test_lock() calls

2026-01-11T14:22:23+00:00

[ Upstream commit a49a2a1baa0c553c3548a1c414b6a3c005a8deba ] Usage of vfs_test_lock() is somewhat confused. Documentation suggests it is given a "lock" but this is not the case. It is given a struct file_lock which contains some details of the sort of lock it should be looking for. In particular passing a "file_lock" containing fl_lmops or fl_ops is meaningless and possibly confusing. This is particularly problematic in lockd. nlmsvc_testlock() receives an initialised "file_lock" from xdr-decode, including manager ops and an owner. It then mistakenly passes this to vfs_test_lock() which might replace the owner and the ops. This can lead to confusion when freeing the lock. The primary role of the 'struct file_lock' passed to vfs_test_lock() is to report a conflicting lock that was found, so it makes more sense for nlmsvc_testlock() to pass "conflock", which it uses for returning the conflicting lock. With this change, freeing of the lock is not confused and code in __nlm4svc_proc_test() and __nlmsvc_proc_test() can be simplified. Documentation for vfs_test_lock() is improved to reflect its real purpose, and a WARN_ON_ONCE() is added to avoid a similar problem in the future.

SUNRPC: Parametrize how much of argsize should be zeroed

2022-09-26T18:02:42+00:00

Currently, SUNRPC clears the whole of .pc_argsize before processing each incoming RPC transaction. Add an extra parameter to struct svc_procedure to enable upper layers to reduce the amount of each operation's argument structure that is zeroed by SUNRPC. The size of struct nfsd4_compoundargs, in particular, is a lot to clear on each incoming RPC Call. A subsequent patch will cut this down to something closer to what NFSv2 and NFSv3 uses. This patch should cause no behavior changes. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever

NLM: Defend against file_lock changes after vfs_test_lock()

2022-07-30T00:08:56+00:00

Instead of trusting that struct file_lock returns completely unchanged after vfs_test_lock() when there's no conflicting lock, stash away our nlm_lockowner reference so we can properly release it for all cases. This defends against another file_lock implementation overwriting fl_owner when the return type is F_UNLCK.

SUNRPC: Trace calls to .rpc_call_done

2021-10-20T22:09:54+00:00

Introduce a single tracepoint that can replace simple dprintk call sites in upper layer "rpc_call_done" callbacks. Example: kworker/u24:2-1254 [001] 771.026677: rpc_stats_latency: task:00000001@00000002 xid=0x16a6f3c0 rpcbindv2 GETPORT backlog=446 rtt=101 execute=555 kworker/u24:2-1254 [001] 771.026677: rpc_task_call_done: task:00000001@00000002 flags=ASYNC|DYNAMIC|SOFT|SOFTCONN|SENT runstate=RUNNING|ACTIVE status=0 action=rpcb_getport_done kworker/u24:2-1254 [001] 771.026678: rpcb_setport: task:00000001@00000002 status=0 port=20048 Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust

Keep read and write fds with each nlm_file

2021-08-23T22:05:31+00:00

We shouldn't really be using a read-only file descriptor to take a write lock. Most filesystems will put up with it. But NFS, for example, won't. Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever

SUNRPC: Make trace_svc_process() display the RPC procedure symbolically

The next few patches will employ these strings to help make server- side trace logs more human-readable. A similar technique is already in use in kernel RPC client code. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever

lockd: Replace PROC() macro with open code

2020-10-02T13:37:41+00:00

Clean up: Follow-up on ten-year-old commit b9081d90f5b9 ("NFS: kill off complicated macro 'PROC'") by performing the same conversion in the lockd code. To reduce the chance of error, I copied the original C preprocessor output and then made some minor edits. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields

lockd: Show pid of lockd for remote locks

2019-07-03T21:52:09+00:00

Use the pid of lockd instead of the remote lock's svid for the fl_pid for local POSIX locks. This allows proper enumeration of which local process owns which lock. The svid is meaningless to local lock readers. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Coddington Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields
