Hi.
I've been looking at a bugzilla which describes a problem where
a customer was advised to use either the "noac" or "actimeo=0"
mount options to solve a consistency problem that they were
seeing in the file attributes. It turned out that this solution
did not work reliably for them because sometimes, the local
attribute cache was believed to be valid and not timed out.
(With an attribute cache timeout of 0, the cache should always
appear to be timed out.)
In looking at this situation, it appears to me that the problem
is that the attribute cache timeout code has an off-by-one
error in it. It is assuming that the cache is valid in the
region, [read_cache_jiffies, read_cache_jiffies + attrtimeo]. The
cache should be considered valid only in the region,
[read_cache_jiffies, read_cache_jiffies + attrtimeo). With this
change, the options, "noac" and "actimeo=0", work as originally
expected.
This problem was previously addressed by special casing the
attrtimeo == 0 case. However, since the problem is only an off-
by-one error, the cleaner solution is address the off-by-one
error and thus, not require the special case.
Thanx...

Somehow, this escaped the previous purge. There should be no need to keep
any extra locks in the XDR callbacks.
The NFS client XDR code only writes into private objects, whereas all reads
of shared objects are confined to fields that do not change, such as
filehandles...
Ditto for lockd, the NFSv2/v3 client mount code, and rpcbind.
The nfsd XDR code may require the BKL, but since it does a synchronous RPC
call from a thread that already holds the lock, that issue is moot.

Fix a regression reported by Max Kellermann whereby kernel profiling
showed that his clients were spending 45% of their time in
rpcauth_lookup_credcache.
It turns out that although his processes had identical uid/gid/groups,
generic_match() was failing to detect this, because the task->group_info
pointers were not shared. This again lead to the creation of a huge number
of identical credentials at the RPC layer.
The regression is fixed by comparing the contents of task->group_info
if the actual pointers are not identical.

If the server sends us an RST error while we're in the TCP_ESTABLISHED
state, then that will not result in a state change, and so the RPC client
ends up hanging forever (see
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11154)
We can intercept the reset by setting up an sk->sk_error_report callback,
which will then allow us to initiate a proper shutdown and retry...
We also make sure that if the send request receives an ECONNRESET, then we
shutdown too...

This logic sets the connection parameter that configures the local device
and informs the remote peer how many concurrent incoming RDMA_READ
requests are supported. The original logic didn't really do what was
intended for two reasons:
- The max number supported by the device is typically smaller than
any one factor in the calculation used, and
- The field in the connection parameter structure where the value is
stored is a u8 and always overflows for the default settings.
So what really happens is the value requested for responder resources
is the left over 8 bits from the "desired value". If the desired value
happened to be a multiple of 256, the result was zero and it wouldn't
connect at all.
Given the above and the fact that max_requests is almost always larger
than the max responder resources supported by the adapter, this patch
simplifies this logic and simply requests the max supported by the device,
subject to a reasonable limit.
This bug was found by Jim Schutt at Sandia.

Despite the fact that cloned rpc clients won't have the cl_autobind flag
set, they may still find themselves calling rpcb_getport_async(). For this
to happen, it suffices for a _parent_ rpc_clnt to use autobinding, in which
case any clone may find itself triggering the !xprt_bound() case in
call_bind().
The correct fix for this is to walk back up the tree of cloned rpc clients,
in order to find the parent that 'owns' the transport, either because it
has clnt->cl_autobind set, or because it originally created the
transport...

RPCRDMA requests that specify a read-list are fetched with RDMA_READ. Using
an FRMR to map the data sink improves NFSRDMA security on transports that
place the RDMA_READ data sink LKEY on the wire because the valid lifetime
of the MR is only the duration of the RDMA_READ. The LKEY is invalidated
when the last RDMA_READ WR completes.
Mapping the data sink also allows for very large amounts to data to be
fetched with a single WR, so if the client is also using FRMR, the entire
RPC read-list can be fetched with a single WR.
