Implement the exchange_id operation conforming to
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-nfsv4-minorversion1-26
Unlike NFSv4.0, NFSv4.1 requires machine credentials. RPC_AUTH_GSS machine
credentials will be passed into the kernel at mount time to be available for
the exchange_id operation.
RPC_AUTH_UNIX root mounts can use the UNIX root credential. Store the root
credential in the nfs_client struct.
Without a credential, NFSv4.1 state renewal fails.

Define and create superblock-level cache index objects (as managed by
nfs_server structs).
Each superblock object is created in a server level index object and is itself
an index into which inode-level objects are inserted.
Ideally there would be one superblock-level object per server, and the former
would be folded into the latter; however, since the "nosharecache" option
exists this isn't possible.
The superblock object key is a sequence consisting of:
(1) Certain superblock s_flags.
(2) Various connection parameters that serve to distinguish superblocks for
sget().
(3) The volume FSID.
(4) The security flavour.
(5) The uniquifier length.
(6) The uniquifier text. This is normally an empty string, unless the fsc=xyz
mount option was used to explicitly specify a uniquifier.
The key blob is of variable length, depending on the length of (6).
The superblock object is given no coherency data to carry in the auxiliary data
permitted by the cache. It is assumed that the superblock is always coherent.
This patch also adds uniquification handling such that two otherwise identical
superblocks, at least one of which is marked "nosharecache", won't end up
trying to share the on-disk cache. It will be possible to manually provide a
uniquifier through a mount option with a later patch to avoid the error
otherwise produced.

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.

The attached patch makes NFS share superblocks between mounts from the same
server and FSID over the same protocol.
It does this by creating each superblock with a false root and returning the
real root dentry in the vfsmount presented by get_sb(). The root dentry set
starts off as an anonymous dentry if we don't already have the dentry for its
inode, otherwise it simply returns the dentry we already have.
We may thus end up with several trees of dentries in the superblock, and if at
some later point one of anonymous tree roots is discovered by normal filesystem
activity to be located in another tree within the superblock, the anonymous
root is named and materialises attached to the second tree at the appropriate
point.
Why do it this way? Why not pass an extra argument to the mount() syscall to
indicate the subpath and then pathwalk from the server root to the desired
directory? You can't guarantee this will work for two reasons:
(1) The root and intervening nodes may not be accessible to the client.
With NFS2 and NFS3, for instance, mountd is called on the server to get
the filehandle for the tip of a path. mountd won't give us handles for
anything we don't have permission to access, and so we can't set up NFS
inodes for such nodes, and so can't easily set up dentries (we'd have to
have ghost inodes or something).
With this patch we don't actually create dentries until we get handles
from the server that we can use to set up their inodes, and we don't
actually bind them into the tree until we know for sure where they go.
(2) Inaccessible symbolic links.
If we're asked to mount two exports from the server, eg:
mount warthog:/warthog/aaa/xxx /mmm
mount warthog:/warthog/bbb/yyy /nnn
We may not be able to access anything nearer the root than xxx and yyy,
but we may find out later that /mmm/www/yyy, say, is actually the same
directory as the one mounted on /nnn. What we might then find out, for
example, is that /warthog/bbb was actually a symbolic link to
/warthog/aaa/xxx/www, but we can't actually determine that by talking to
the server until /warthog is made available by NFS.
This would lead to having constructed an errneous dentry tree which we
can't easily fix. We can end up with a dentry marked as a directory when
it should actually be a symlink, or we could end up with an apparently
hardlinked directory.
With this patch we need not make assumptions about the type of a dentry
for which we can't retrieve information, nor need we assume we know its
place in the grand scheme of things until we actually see that place.
This patch reduces the possibility of aliasing in the inode and page caches for
inodes that may be accessed by more than one NFS export. It also reduces the
number of superblocks required for NFS where there are many NFS exports being
used from a server (home directory server + autofs for example).
This in turn makes it simpler to do local caching of network filesystems, as it
can then be guaranteed that there won't be links from multiple inodes in
separate superblocks to the same cache file.
Obviously, cache aliasing between different levels of NFS protocol could still
be a problem, but at least that gives us another key to use when indexing the
cache.
This patch makes the following changes:
(1) The server record construction/destruction has been abstracted out into
its own set of functions to make things easier to get right. These have
been moved into fs/nfs/client.c.
All the code in fs/nfs/client.c has to do with the management of
connections to servers, and doesn't touch superblocks in any way; the
remaining code in fs/nfs/super.c has to do with VFS superblock management.
(2) The sequence of events undertaken by NFS mount is now reordered:
(a) A volume representation (struct nfs_server) is allocated.
(b) A server representation (struct nfs_client) is acquired. This may be
allocated or shared, and is keyed on server address, port and NFS
version.
(c) If allocated, the client representation is initialised. The state
member variable of nfs_client is used to prevent a race during
initialisation from two mounts.
(d) For NFS4 a simple pathwalk is performed, walking from FH to FH to find
the root filehandle for the mount (fs/nfs/getroot.c). For NFS2/3 we
are given the root FH in advance.
(e) The volume FSID is probed for on the root FH.
(f) The volume representation is initialised from the FSINFO record
retrieved on the root FH.
(g) sget() is called to acquire a superblock. This may be allocated or
shared, keyed on client pointer and FSID.
(h) If allocated, the superblock is initialised.
(i) If the superblock is shared, then the new nfs_server record is
discarded.
(j) The root dentry for this mount is looked up from the root FH.
(k) The root dentry for this mount is assigned to the vfsmount.
(3) nfs_readdir_lookup() creates dentries for each of the entries readdir()
returns; this function now attaches disconnected trees from alternate
roots that happen to be discovered attached to a directory being read (in
the same way nfs_lookup() is made to do for lookup ops).
The new d_materialise_unique() function is now used to do this, thus
permitting the whole thing to be done under one set of locks, and thus
avoiding any race between mount and lookup operations on the same
directory.
(4) The client management code uses a new debug facility: NFSDBG_CLIENT which
is set by echoing 1024 to /proc/net/sunrpc/nfs_debug.
(5) Clone mounts are now called xdev mounts.
(6) Use the dentry passed to the statfs() op as the handle for retrieving fs
statistics rather than the root dentry of the superblock (which is now a
dummy).
