lockd: fix vfs_test_lock() calls

2026-01-08T09:17:10+00:00

commit a49a2a1baa0c553c3548a1c414b6a3c005a8deba upstream. 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.

lockd: add netlink control interface

2025-03-10T13:10:53+00:00

The legacy rpc.nfsd tool will set the nlm_grace_period if the NFSv4 grace period is set. nfsdctl is missing this functionality, so add a new netlink control interface for lockd that it can use. For now, it only allows setting the grace period, and the tcp and udp listener ports. lockd currently uses module parameters and sysctls for configuration, so all of its settings are global. With this change, lockd now tracks these values on a per-net-ns basis. It will only fall back to using the global values if any of them are 0. Finally, as a backward compatibility measure, if updating the nlm settings in the init_net namespace, also update the legacy global values to match.

treewide: const qualify ctl_tables where applicable

2025-01-28T12:48:37+00:00

Add the const qualifier to all the ctl_tables in the tree except for watchdog_hardlockup_sysctl, memory_allocation_profiling_sysctls, loadpin_sysctl_table and the ones calling register_net_sysctl (./net, drivers/inifiniband dirs). These are special cases as they use a registration function with a non-const qualified ctl_table argument or modify the arrays before passing them on to the registration function. Constifying ctl_table structs will prevent the modification of proc_handler function pointers as the arrays would reside in .rodata. This is made possible after commit 78eb4ea25cd5 ("sysctl: treewide: constify the ctl_table argument of proc_handlers") constified all the proc_handlers. Created this by running an spatch followed by a sed command: Spatch: virtual patch @ depends on !(file in "net") disable optional_qualifier @ identifier table_name != { watchdog_hardlockup_sysctl, iwcm_ctl_table, ucma_ctl_table, memory_allocation_profiling_sysctls, loadpin_sysctl_table }; @@ + const struct ctl_table table_name [] = { ... }; sed: sed --in-place \ -e "s/struct ctl_table .table = &uts_kern/const struct ctl_table *table = \&uts_kern/" \ kernel/utsname_sysctl.c Reviewed-by: Song Liu Acked-by: Steven Rostedt (Google) # for kernel/trace/ Reviewed-by: Martin K.

Pull nfsd updates from Chuck Lever: "Jeff Layton contributed a scalability improvement to NFSD's NFSv4 backchannel session implementation. This improvement is intended to increase the rate at which NFSD can safely recall NFSv4 delegations from clients, to avoid the need to revoke them. Revoking requires a slow state recovery process.

lockd: Remove unneeded initialization of file_lock::c.flc_flags

2024-11-19T01:23:04+00:00

Since commit 75c7940d2a86 ("lockd: set missing fl_flags field when retrieving args"), nlmsvc_retrieve_args() initializes the flc_flags field. svcxdr_decode_lock() no longer needs to do this. This clean up removes one dependency on the nlm_lock:fl field. No behavior change is expected. Analysis: svcxdr_decode_lock() is called by: nlm4svc_decode_testargs() nlm4svc_decode_lockargs() nlm4svc_decode_cancargs() nlm4svc_decode_unlockargs() nlm4svc_decode_testargs() is used by: - NLMPROC4_TEST and NLMPROC4_TEST_MSG, which call nlmsvc_retrieve_args() - NLMPROC4_GRANTED and NLMPROC4_GRANTED_MSG, which don't pass the lock's file_lock to the generic lock API nlm4svc_decode_lockargs() is used by: - NLMPROC4_LOCK and NLM4PROC4_LOCK_MSG, which call nlmsvc_retrieve_args() - NLMPROC4_UNLOCK and NLM4PROC4_UNLOCK_MSG, which call nlmsvc_retrieve_args() - NLMPROC4_NM_LOCK, which calls nlmsvc_retrieve_args() nlm4svc_decode_cancargs() is used by: - NLMPROC4_CANCEL and NLMPROC4_CANCEL_MSG, which call nlmsvc_retrieve_args() nlm4svc_decode_unlockargs() is used by: - NLMPROC4_UNLOCK and NLMPROC4_UNLOCK_MSG, which call nlmsvc_retrieve_args() All callers except GRANTED/GRANTED_MSG eventually call nlmsvc_retrieve_args() before using nlm_lock::fl.c.flc_flags.
