  • Pull nfsd updates from Bruce Fields:
    "The main change is the pNFS block server support from Christoph, which
    allows an NFS client connected to shared disk to do block IO to the
    shared disk in place of NFS reads and writes. This also requires xfs
    patches, which should arrive soon through the xfs tree, barring
    unexpected problems. Support for other filesystems is also possible
    if there's interest.

    Thanks also to Chuck Lever for continuing work to get NFS/RDMA into
    shape"

  • Add a small shim between core nfsd and filesystems to translate the
    somewhat cumbersome pNFS data structures and semantics to something
    more palatable for Linux filesystems.

    Thanks to Rick McNeal for the old prototype pNFS blocklayout server
    code, which gave a lot of inspiration to this version even if no
    code is left from it.

  • The NFS/RDMA Kconfig symbol was split into separate options for client
    and server in commit 2e8c12e1b765 ("xprtrdma: add separate Kconfig
    options for NFSoRDMA client and server support").

    Update the documentation to reflect this split.

  • The main advantge of this new upcall mechanism is that it can handle
    big tickets as seen in Kerberos implementations where tickets carry
    authorization data like the MS-PAC buffer with AD or the Posix Authorization
    Data being discussed in IETF on the krbwg working group.

    The Gssproxy program is used to perform the accept_sec_context call on the
    kernel's behalf. The code is changed to also pass the input buffer straight
    to upcall mechanism to avoid allocating and copying many pages as tokens can
    be as big (potentially more in future) as 64KiB.

  • Our server rejects compounds containing more than one write operation.
    It's unclear whether this is really permitted by the spec; with 4.0,
    it's possibly OK, with 4.1 (which has clearer limits on compound
    parameters), it's probably not OK. No client that we're aware of has
    ever done this, but in theory it could be useful.

    The source of the limitation: we need an array of iovecs to pass to the
    write operation. In the worst case that array of iovecs could have
    hundreds of elements (the maximum rwsize divided by the page size), so
    it's too big to put on the stack, or in each compound op. So we instead
    keep a single such array in the compound argument.

    We fill in that array at the time we decode the xdr operation.

    But we decode every op in the compound before executing any of them. So
    once we've used that array we can't decode another write.

    If we instead delay filling in that array till the time we actually
    perform the write, we can reuse it.

    Another option might be to switch to decoding compound ops one at a
    time. I considered doing that, but it has a number of other side
    effects, and I'd rather fix just this one problem for now.

  • An optional boot parameter is introduced to allow client
    administrators to specify a string that the Linux NFS client can
    insert into its nfs_client_id4 id string, to make it both more
    globally unique, and to ensure that it doesn't change even if the
    client's nodename changes.

    If this boot parameter is not specified, the client's nodename is
    used, as before.

    Client installation procedures can create a unique string (typically,
    a UUID) which remains unchanged during the lifetime of that client
    instance. This works just like creating a UUID for the label of the
    system's root and boot volumes.

  • On small systems (e.g. embedded ones) IP addresses are often configured
    by bootloaders and get assigned to kernel via parameter "ip=". If set to
    "ip=dhcp", even nameserver entries from DHCP daemons are handled. These
    entries exported in /proc/net/pnp are commonly linked by /etc/resolv.conf.

    To configure nameservers for networks without DHCP, this patch adds option
    and to kernel-parameter 'ip='.

  • The pnfs-objects protocol mandates that we autologin into devices not
    present in the system, according to information specified in the
    get_device_info returned from the server.

    The Protocol specifies two login hints.
    1. An IP address:port combination
    2. A string URI which is constructed as a URL with a protocol prefix
    followed by :// and a string as address. For each protocol prefix
    the string-address format might be different.

    We only support the second option. The first option is just redundant
    to the second one.
    NOTE: The Kernel part of autologin does not parse the URI string. It
    just channels it to a user-mode script. So any new login protocols should
    only update the user-mode script which is a part of the nfs-utils package,
    but the Kernel need not change.

    We implement the autologin by using the call_usermodehelper() API.
    (Thanks to Steve Dickson for pointing it out)
    So there is no running daemon needed, and/or special setup.

    We Add the osd_login_prog Kernel module parameters which defaults to:
    /sbin/osd_login

    Kernel try's to upcall the program specified in osd_login_prog. If the file is
    not found or the execution fails Kernel will disable any farther upcalls, by
    zeroing out osd_login_prog, Until Admin re-enables it by setting the
    osd_login_prog parameter to a proper program.

    Also add text about the osd_login program command line API to:
    Documentation/filesystems/nfs/pnfs.txt
    and documentation of the new osd_login_prog module parameter to:
    Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt

    TODO: Add timeout option in the case osd_login program gets
    stuck

  • There are numerous broken references to Documentation files (in other
    Documentation files, in comments, etc.). These broken references are
    caused by typo's in the references, and by renames or removals of the
    Documentation files. Some broken references are simply odd.

    Fix these broken references, sometimes by dropping the irrelevant text
    they were part of.

  • This patch creates a new idmapper system that uses the request-key function to
    place a call into userspace to map user and group ids to names. The old
    idmapper was single threaded, which prevented more than one request from running
    at a single time. This means that a user would have to wait for an upcall to
    finish before accessing a cached result.

    The upcall result is stored on a keyring of type id_resolver. See the file
    Documentation/filesystems/nfs/idmapper.txt for instructions.
