  • The RPC buffer size estimation logic in net/sunrpc/clnt.c always
    significantly overestimates the requirements for the buffer size.
    A little instrumentation demonstrated that in fact rpc_malloc was never
    allocating the buffer from the mempool, but almost always called kmalloc.

    To compute the size of the RPC buffer more precisely, split p_bufsiz into
    two fields; one for the argument size, and one for the result size.

    Then, compute the sum of the exact call and reply header sizes, and split
    the RPC buffer precisely between the two. That should keep almost all RPC
    buffers within the 2KiB buffer mempool limit.

    And, we can finally be rid of RPC_SLACK_SPACE!

  • NLM version 4 requests estimate the call and reply header sizes rather
    conservatively, using the very maximum size allowed in the protocol even
    though Linux always uses only a small fraction of the allowable space.

    Reduce the size of caller and lock arguments to conserve RPC buffer space
    while XDR encoding NLM4 arguments. Add compile-time checks to ensure the
    hostname string won't overflow NLM protocol maximums.

  • Replace references to system_utsname to the per-process uts namespace
    where appropriate. This includes things like uname.

    Changes: Per Eric Biederman's comments, use the per-process uts namespace
    for ELF_PLATFORM, sunrpc, and parts of net/ipv4/ipconfig.c

  • Use ARRAY_SIZE macro instead of sizeof(x)/sizeof(x[0]) and remove a
    duplicate of ARRAY_SIZE. Some trailing whitespaces are also deleted.

  • Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
    even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
    archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
    3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
    git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
    infrastructure for it.

    Let it rip!
