2012-11-13nfsd: release the legacy reclaimable clients list in grace_doneJeff Layton1-0/+1
The current code holds on to this list until nfsd is shut down, but it's never touched once the grace period ends. Release that memory back into the wild when the grace period ends. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@redhat.com>
2012-11-13nfsd: get rid of cl_recdir fieldJeff Layton3-36/+77
Remove the cl_recdir field from the nfs4_client struct. Instead, just compute it on the fly when and if it's needed, which is now only when the legacy client tracking code is in effect. The error handling in the legacy client tracker is also changed to handle the case where md5 is unavailable. In that case, we'll warn the admin with a KERN_ERR message and disable the client tracking. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@redhat.com>
2012-11-13nfsd: move the confirmed and unconfirmed hlists to a rbtreeJeff Layton2-52/+95
The current code requires that we md5 hash the name in order to store the client in the confirmed and unconfirmed trees. Change it instead to store the clients in a pair of rbtrees, and simply compare the cl_names directly instead of hashing them. This also necessitates that we add a new flag to the clp->cl_flags field to indicate which tree the client is currently in. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@redhat.com>
2012-11-13nfsd: don't search for client by hash on legacy reboot recovery gracedoneJeff Layton3-13/+34
When nfsd starts, the legacy reboot recovery code creates a tracking struct for each directory in the v4recoverydir. When the grace period ends, it basically does a "readdir" on the directory again, and matches each dentry in there to an existing client id to see if it should be removed or not. If the matching client doesn't exist, or hasn't reclaimed its state then it will remove that dentry. This is pretty inefficient since it involves doing a lot of hash-bucket searching. It also means that we have to keep relying on being able to search for a nfs4_client by md5 hashed cl_recdir name. Instead, add a pointer to the nfs4_client that indicates the association between the nfs4_client_reclaim and nfs4_client. When a reclaim operation comes in, we set the pointer to make that association. On gracedone, the legacy client tracker will keep the recdir around iff: 1/ there is a reclaim record for the directory ...and... 2/ there's an association between the reclaim record and a client record -- that is, a create or check operation was performed on the client that matches that directory.

2012-11-13nfsd: have nfsd4_find_reclaim_client take a char * argumentJeff Layton3-9/+6

2012-11-13nfsd: warn about impending removal of nfsdcld upcallJeff Layton1-0/+3
Let's shoot for removing the nfsdcld upcall in 3.10. Most likely, no one is actually using it so I don't expect this warning to fire often (except maybe on misconfigured systems). Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@redhat.com>
2012-11-13nfsd: pass info about the legacy recoverydir in environment variablesJeff Layton1-8/+82
The usermodehelper upcall program can then decide to use this info as a (one-way) transition mechanism to the new scheme. When a "check" upcall occurs and the client doesn't exist in the database, we can look to see whether the directory exists. If it does, then we'd add the client to the database, remove the legacy recdir, and return success to the kernel to allow the recovery to proceed. For gracedone, we simply pass the v4recovery "topdir" so that the upcall can clean it out prior to returning to the kernel. A module parm is also added to disable the legacy conversion if the admin chooses. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@redhat.com>
2012-11-13nfsd: change heuristic for selecting the client_tracking_opsJeff Layton1-9/+27
First, try to use the new usermodehelper upcall. It should succeed or fail quickly, so there's little cost to doing so. If it fails, and the legacy tracking dir exists, use that. If it doesn't exist then fall back to using nfsdcld. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@redhat.com>
2012-11-13nfsd: add a usermodehelper upcall for NFSv4 client ID trackingJeff Layton1-1/+133
Add a new client tracker upcall type that uses call_usermodehelper to call out to a program. This seems to be the preferred method of calling out to usermode these days for seldom-called upcalls. It's simple and doesn't require a running daemon, so it should "just work" as long as the binary is installed. The client tracking exit operation is also changed to check for a NULL pointer before running. The UMH upcall doesn't need to do anything at module teardown time.

2012-11-08nfsd4: use callback security parameters in create_sessionJ. Bruce Fields3-14/+37
We're currently ignoring the callback security parameters specified in create_session, and just assuming the client wants auth_sys, because that's all the current linux client happens to care about. But this could cause us callbacks to fail to a client that wanted something different. For now, all we're doing is no longer ignoring the uid and gid passed in the auth_sys case. Further patches will add support for auth_null and gss (and possibly use more of the auth_sys information; the spec wants us to use exactly the credential we're passed, though it's hard to imagine why a client would care).

2012-11-08nfsd: use vfs_fsync_range(), not O_SYNC, for stable writesJ. Bruce Fields1-7/+6
NFSv4 shares the same struct file across multiple writes. (And we'd like NFSv2 and NFSv3 to do that as well some day.) So setting O_SYNC on the struct file as a way to request a synchronous write doesn't work. Instead, do a vfs_fsync_range() in that case.

2012-11-08nfsd: assume writeable exportabled filesystems have f_syncJ. Bruce Fields1-13/+0
I don't really see how you could claim to support nfsd and not support fsync somehow. And in practice a quick look through the exportable filesystems suggests the only ones without an ->fsync are read-only (efs, isofs, squashfs) or in-memory (shmem). Also, performing a write and then returning an error if the sync fails (as we would do here in the wgather case) seems unhelpful to clients. Also remove an incorrect comment. Signed-off-by: J.

2012-10-20arm64: fix alignment padding in assembly codeMarc Zyngier2-1/+7
An interesting effect of using the generic version of linkage.h is that the padding is defined in terms of x86 NOPs, which can have even more interesting effects when the assembly code looks like this: ENTRY(func1) mov x0, xzr ENDPROC(func1) // fall through ENTRY(func2) mov x0, #1 ret ENDPROC(func2) Admittedly, the code is not very nice. But having code from another architecture doesn't look completely sane either. The fix is to add arm64's version of linkage.h, which causes the insertion of proper AArch64 NOPs.

2012-10-20MODSIGN: Move the magic string to the end of a module and eliminate the searchDavid Howells4-31/+28
Emit the magic string that indicates a module has a signature after the signature data instead of before it. This allows module_sig_check() to be made simpler and faster by the elimination of the search for the magic string. Instead we just need to do a single memcmp(). This works because at the end of the signature data there is the fixed-length signature information block. This block then falls immediately prior to the magic number. From the contents of the information block, it is trivial to calculate the size of the signature data and thus the size of the actual module data.

2012-10-20kernel/sys.c: fix stack memory content leak via UNAME26Kees Cook1-5/+7
Calling uname() with the UNAME26 personality set allows a leak of kernel stack contents. This fixes it by defensively calculating the length of copy_to_user() call, making the len argument unsigned, and initializing the stack buffer to zero (now technically unneeded, but hey, overkill).
