SUNRPC: Revert 241b1f419f0e ("SUNRPC: Remove xdr_buf_trim()")

2020-04-27T14:58:30+00:00

I've noticed that when krb5i or krb5p security is in use, retransmitted requests are missing the server's duplicate reply cache. The computed checksum on the retransmitted request does not match the cached checksum, resulting in the server performing the retransmitted request again instead of returning the cached reply. The assumptions made when removing xdr_buf_trim() were not correct. In the send paths, the upper layer has already set the segment lengths correctly, and shorting the buffer's content is simply a matter of reducing buf->len. xdr_buf_trim() is the right answer in the receive/unwrap path on both the client and the server. The buffer segment lengths have to be shortened one-by-one. On the server side in particular, head.iov_len needs to be updated correctly to enable nfsd_cache_csum() to work correctly. The simple buf->len computation doesn't do that, and that results in checksumming stale data in the buffer. The problem isn't noticed until there's significant instability of the RPC transport. At that point, the reliability of retransmit detection on the server becomes crucial. Fixes: 241b1f419f0e ("SUNRPC: Remove xdr_buf_trim()") Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever

SUNRPC: Remove xdr_buf_trim()

2019-02-14T14:39:34+00:00

The key action of xdr_buf_trim() is that it shortens buf->len, the length of the xdr_buf's content. The other actions -- shortening the head, pages, and tail components -- are actually not necessary. In particular, changing the size of those components can corrupt the RPC message contained in the buffer. This is an accident waiting to happen rather than a current bug, as far as we know.
