38def50fab nfs: fix race in nfs_dirty_request
When called from nfs_flush_incompatible, the req is not locked, so
req->wb_page might be set to NULL before it is used by PageWriteback.

b0b539739f NFS: Ensure that 'noac' and/or 'actimeo=0' turn off attribute caching
Both the 'noac' and 'actimeo=0' mount options should ensure that attributes
are not cached, however a bug in nfs_attribute_timeout() means that
currently, the attributes may in fact get cached for up to one jiffy. This
has been seen to cause corruption in some applications.

The reason for the bug is that the time_in_range() test returns 'true' as
long as the current time lies between nfsi->read_cache_jiffies and
nfsi->read_cache_jiffies + nfsi->attrtimeo. In other words, if jiffies
equals nfsi->read_cache_jiffies, then we still cache the attribute data.

06e02d66fa NFS: don't let nfs_callback_svc exit on unexpected svc_recv errors (try #2)
When svc_recv returns an unexpected error, nfs_callback_svc will print a
warning and exit. This problematic for several reasons. In particular,
it will cause the reference counts for the thread to be wrong, and no
new thread will be started until all nfs4 mounts are unmounted.

Rather than exiting on error from svc_recv, have the thread do a 1s
sleep and then retry the loop. This is unlikely to cause any harm, and
if the error turns out to be something temporary then it may be able to
recover.

a277e33cbe NFS: convert nfs4 callback thread to kthread API
There's a general push to convert kernel threads to use the (much
cleaner) kthread API. This patch converts the NFSv4 callback kernel
thread to the kthread API. In addition to being generally cleaner this
also removes the dependency on signals when shutting down the thread.

Note that this patch depends on the recent patches to svc_recv() to
make it check kthread_should_stop() periodically. Those patches are
in Bruce's tree at the moment and are slated for 2.6.26 along with
the lockd conversion, so this conversion is probably also appropriate
for 2.6.26.

4410924157 nfs: fix printout of multiword bitfields
Benny points out that zero-padding of multiword bitfields is necessary,
and that delimiting each word is nice to avoid endianess confusion.

bhalevy: without zero padding output can be ambiguous. Also,
since the printed array of two 32-bit unsigned integers is not a
64-bit number, delimiting the output with a semicolon makes more sense.

c1d519312d NFSv4: Only increment the sequence id if the server saw it
It is quite possible that the OPEN, CLOSE, LOCK, LOCKU,... compounds fail
before the actual stateful operation has been executed (for instance in the
PUTFH call). There is no way to tell from the overall status result which
operations were executed from the COMPOUND.

The fix is to move incrementing of the sequence id into the XDR layer,
so that we do it as we process the results from the stateful operation.

73e3302f60 NFS: Fix nfs_wb_page() to always exit with an error or a clean page
It is possible for nfs_wb_page() to sometimes exit with 0 return value, yet
the page is left in a dirty state.
For instance in the case where the server rebooted, and the COMMIT request
failed, then all the previously "clean" pages which were cached by the
server, but were not guaranteed to have been writted out to disk,
have to be redirtied and resent to the server.
The fix is to have nfs_wb_page_priority() check that the page is clean
before it exits...

This fixes a condition that triggers the BUG_ON(PagePrivate(page)) in
nfs_create_request() when we're in the nfs_readpage() path.

Also eliminate a redundant BUG_ON(!PageLocked(page)) while we're at it. It
turns out that clear_page_dirty_for_io() has the exact same test.

2c463e9548 [PATCH] r/o bind mounts: check mnt instead of superblock directly
If we depend on the inodes for writeability, we will not catch the r/o mounts
when implemented.

This patches uses __mnt_want_write().  It does not guarantee that the mount
will stay writeable after the check.  But, this is OK for one of the checks
because it is just for a printk().

The other two are probably unnecessary and duplicate existing checks in the
VFS.  This won't make them better checks than before, but it will make them
detect r/o mounts.

f22d6d79fe NFS: Save the value of the "port=" mount option
During a remount based on the mount options displayed in /proc/mounts, we
want to preserve the original behavior of the mount request.  Let's save
the original setting of the "port=" mount option in the mount's nfs_server
structure.

This allows us to simplify the default behavior of port setting for NFSv4
mounts: by default, NFSv2/3 mounts first try an RPC bind to determine the
NFS server's port, unless the user specified the "port=" mount option;
Users can force the client to skip the RPC bind by explicitly specifying
"port=<value>".

NFSv4, by contrast, assumes the NFS server port is 2049 and skips the RPC
bind, unless the user specifies "port=".  Users can force an RPC bind for
NFSv4 by explicitly specifying "port=0".

I added a couple of extra comments to clarify this behavior.

  assume at this point that there are requests already in desc, that
    can't be merged with the current request.
  so nfs_pageio_doio is fired up to clear out desc.
  assume something goes wrong in setting up the io, so desc->pg_error is set.
  This causes nfs_pageio_add_request to return 0, *WITHOUT* adding the original
    request.
  BUT, since return code is ignored, readpage_async_filler assumes it has
    been added, and does nothing further, leaving page locked.
  do_generic_mapping_read will eventually call lock_page, resulting in deadlock

In write path:
  page is marked dirty by generic_perform_write
  nfs_writepages is called
  call nfs_pageio_add_request from nfs_page_async_flush
  assume at this point that there are requests already in desc, that
    can't be merged with the current request.
  so nfs_pageio_doio is fired up to clear out desc.
  assume something goes wrong in setting up the io, so desc->pg_error is set.
  This causes nfs_page_async_flush to return 0, *WITHOUT* adding the original
    request, yet marking the request as locked (PG_BUSY) and in writeback,
    clearing dirty marks.
  The next time a write is done to the page, deadlock will result as
    nfs_write_end calls nfs_update_request

98a8e32394 SUNRPC: Add a helper rpcauth_lookup_generic_cred()
The NFSv4 protocol allows clients to negotiate security protocols on the
fly in the case where an administrator on the server changes the export
settings and/or in the case where we may have a filesystem migration event.

Instead of having the NFS client code cache credentials that are tied to a
particular AUTH method it is therefore preferable to have a generic credential
that can be converted into whatever AUTH is in use by the RPC client when
the read/write/sillyrename/... is put on the wire.

We do this by means of the new "generic" credential, which basically just
caches the minimal information that is needed to look up an RPCSEC_GSS,
AUTH_SYS, or AUTH_NULL credential.
