A return value of 0 means success. This is documented in lib/kstrtox.c.
This was found by trying to mount an NFS share from a link-local IPv6
address with the interface specified by its index:
mount("[fe80::1%1]:/srv/nfs", "/mnt", "nfs", 0, "nolock,addr=fe80::1%1")
Before this commit this failed with EINVAL and also caused the following
message in dmesg:
[...] NFS: bad IP address specified: addr=fe80::1%1
The syscall using the same address based on the interface name instead
of its index succeeds.
Credits for this patch go to my colleague Christian Speich, who traced
the origin of this bug to this line of code.

Daire Byrne reports a ~50% aggregrate throughput regression on his
Linux NFS server after commit da1661b93bf4 ("SUNRPC: Teach server to
use xprt_sock_sendmsg for socket sends"), which replaced
kernel_send_page() calls in NFSD's socket send path with calls to
sock_sendmsg() using iov_iter.
Investigation showed that tcp_sendmsg() was not using zero-copy to
send the xdr_buf's bvec pages, but instead was relying on memcpy.
This means copying every byte of a large NFS READ payload.
It looks like TLS sockets do indeed support a ->sendpage method,
so it's really not necessary to use xprt_sock_sendmsg() to support
TLS fully on the server. A mechanical reversion of da1661b93bf4 is
not possible at this point, but we can re-implement the server's
TCP socket sendmsg path using kernel_sendpage().

Pull nfsd updates from Chuck Lever:
"Several substantial changes this time around:
- Previously, exporting an NFS mount via NFSD was considered to be an
unsupported feature. With v5.11, the community has attempted to
make re-exporting a first-class feature of NFSD.
This would enable the Linux in-kernel NFS server to be used as an
intermediate cache for a remotely-located primary NFS server, for
example, even with other NFS server implementations, like a NetApp
filer, as the primary.
- A short series of patches brings support for multiple RPC/RDMA data
chunks per RPC transaction to the Linux NFS server's RPC/RDMA
transport implementation.
This is a part of the RPC/RDMA spec that the other premiere
NFS/RDMA implementation (Solaris) has had for a very long time, and
completes the implementation of RPC/RDMA version 1 in the Linux
kernel's NFS server.
- Long ago, NFSv4 support was introduced to NFSD using a series of C
macros that hid dprintk's and goto's. Over time, the kernel's XDR
implementation has been greatly improved, but these C macros have
remained and become fallow. A series of patches in this pull
request completely replaces those macros with the use of current
kernel XDR infrastructure. Benefits include:
- More robust input sanitization in NFSD's NFSv4 XDR decoders.
- Make it easier to use common kernel library functions that use
XDR stream APIs (for example, GSS-API).
- Align the structure of the source code with the RFCs so it is
easier to learn, verify, and maintain our XDR implementation.
- Removal of more than a hundred hidden dprintk() call sites.
- Removal of some explicit manipulation of pages to help make the
eventual transition to xdr->bvec smoother.
- On top of several related fixes in 5.10-rc, there are a few more
fixes to get the Linux NFSD implementation of NFSv4.2 inter-server
copy up to speed.
And as usual, there is a pinch of seasoning in the form of a
collection of unrelated minor bug fixes and clean-ups.
Many thanks to all who contributed this time around!"

Olga K. observed that rpcrdma_marsh_req() allocates sparse pages
only when it has determined that a Reply chunk is necessary. There
are plenty of cases where no Reply chunk is needed, but the
XDRBUF_SPARSE_PAGES flag is set. The result would be a crash in
rpcrdma_inline_fixup() when it tries to copy parts of the received
Reply into a missing page.
To avoid crashing, handle sparse page allocation up front.
Until XATTR support was added, this issue did not appear often
because the only SPARSE_PAGES consumer always expected a reply large
enough to always require a Reply chunk.

When receiving pages data, return value 'ret' when positive includes
`buf->page_base`, so we should subtract that before it is used for
changing `offset` and comparing against `want`.
This was discovered on the very rare cases where the server returned a
chunk of bytes that when added to the already received amount of bytes
for the pages happened to match the current `recv.len`, for example
on this case:
buf->page_base : 258356
actually received from socket: 1740
ret : 260096
want : 260096
In this case neither of the two 'if ... goto out' trigger, and we
continue to tail parsing.
Worth to mention that the ensuing EMSGSIZE from the continued execution of
`xs_read_xdr_buf` may be observed by an application due to 4 superfluous
bytes being added to the pages data.

rpc_prepare_reply_pages() currently expects the 'hdrsize' argument to
contain the length of the data that we expect to want placed in the head
kvec plus a count of 1 word of padding that is placed after the page data.
This is very confusing when trying to read the code, and sometimes leads
to callers adding an arbitrary value of '1' just in order to satisfy the
requirement (whether or not the page data actually needs such padding).
This patch aims to clarify the code by changing the 'hdrsize' argument
to remove that 1 word of padding. This means we need to subtract the
padding from all the existing callers.

A "permanent" struct xdr_stream is allocated in struct svc_rqst so
that it is usable by all server-side decoders. A per-rqst scratch
buffer is also allocated to handle decoding XDR data items that
cross page boundaries.
To demonstrate how it will be used, add the first call site for the
new svcxdr_init_decode() API.
As an additional part of the overall conversion, add symbolic
constants for successful and failed XDR operations. Returning "0" is
overloaded. Sometimes it means something failed, but sometimes it
means success. To make it more clear when XDR decoding functions
succeed or fail, introduce symbolic constants.

An efficient way to handle multiple Read chunks is to post them all
together and then take a single completion. This is also how the
code is already structured: when the Read completion fires, all
portions of the incoming RPC message are available to be assembled.
The difficult problem is setting up the Read sink buffers so that
the server pulls the client's data into place, making subsequent
pull-up unnecessary. There are several cases:
* No Read chunks. No-op.
* One data item Read chunk. This is the fast case, where the inline
part of the RPC-over-RDMA message becomes the head and tail, and
the data item chunk is placed in buf->pages.
* A Position-zero Read chunk. Treated like TCP: the Read chunk is
pulled into contiguous pages.
+ A Position-zero Read chunk with data item chunks. Treated like
TCP: all of the Read chunks are pulled into contiguous pages.
+ Multiple data item chunks. Treated like TCP: the inline part is
copied and the data item chunks are pulled into contiguous pages.
The "*" cases are already supported. This patch adds support for the
"+" cases.

This simple data structure binds the location of each data payload
inside of an RPC message to the chunk that will be used to push it
to or pull it from the client.
There are several benefits to this small additional overhead:
* It enables support for more than one chunk in incoming Read and
Write lists.
* It translates the version-specific on-the-wire format into a
generic in-memory structure, enabling support for multiple
versions of the RPC/RDMA transport protocol.
* It enables the server to re-organize a chunk list if it needs to
adjust where Read chunk data lands in server memory without
altering the contents of the XDR-encoded Receive buffer.
Construction of these lists is done while sanity checking each
incoming RPC/RDMA header. Subsequent patches will make use of the
generated data structures.
