Trond Myklebust 7b281ee026 NFS: fsync() must exit with an error if page writeback failed
We need to ensure that if the call to filemap_write_and_wait_range()
fails, then we report that error back to the application.

Trond Myklebust 1f1ea6c2d9 NFSv4: Fix buffer overflow checking in __nfs4_get_acl_uncached
Pass the checks made by decode_getacl back to __nfs4_get_acl_uncached
so that it knows if the acl has been truncated.

The current overflow checking is broken, resulting in Oopses on
user-triggered nfs4_getfacl calls, and is opaque to the point
where several attempts at fixing it have failed.
This patch tries to clean up the code in addition to fixing the
Oopses by ensuring that the overflow checks are performed in
a single place (decode_getacl). If the overflow check failed,
we will still be able to report the acl length, but at least
we will no longer attempt to cache the acl or copy the
truncated contents to user space.

Ensure that the user supplied buffer size doesn't cause us to overflow

Also fix up some confusion between the use of PAGE_SIZE and

Trond Myklebust c3f52af3e0 NFS: Fix the initialisation of the readdir 'cookieverf' array
When the NFS_COOKIEVERF helper macro was converted into a static
inline function in commit 99fadcd764 (nfs: convert NFS_*(inode)
helpers to static inline), we broke the initialisation of the
readdir cookies, since that depended on doing a memset with an
argument of 'sizeof(NFS_COOKIEVERF(inode))' which therefore
changed from sizeof(be32 cookieverf[2]) to sizeof(be32 *).

At this point, NFS_COOKIEVERF seems to be more of an obfuscation
than a helper, so the best thing would be to just get rid of it.

Trond Myklebust b291f1b1c8 NFSv4: Fix the acl cache size calculation
Currently, we do not take into account the size of the 16 byte
struct nfs4_cached_acl header, when deciding whether or not we should

Resetting the cursor xdr->p to a previous value is not a safe
practice: if the xdr_stream has crossed out of the initial iovec,
then a bunch of other fields would need to be reset too.

Fix this issue by using xdr_enter_page() so that the buffer gets
page aligned at the bitmap _before_ we decode it.

Also fix the confusion of the ACL length with the page buffer length
by not adding the base offset to the ACL length...

bjschuma@gmail.com 1ae811ee27 NFS: Fix a regression when loading the NFS v4 module
Some systems have a modprobe.d/nfs.conf file that sets an nfs4 alias
pointing to nfs.ko, rather than nfs4.ko.  This can prevent the v4 module
from loading on mount, since the kernel sees that something named "nfs4"
has already been loaded.  To work around this, I've renamed the modules
to "nfsv2.ko" "nfsv3.ko" and "nfsv4.ko".

I also had to move the nfs4_fs_type back to nfs.ko to ensure that `mount
-t nfs4` still works.

Trond Myklebust 47fbf7976e NFSv4.1: Remove a bogus BUG_ON() in nfs4_layoutreturn_done
Ever since commit 0a57cdac3f (NFSv4.1 send layoutreturn to fence
disconnected data server) we've been sending layoutreturn calls
while there is potentially still outstanding I/O to the data
servers. The reason we do this is to avoid races between replayed
writes to the MDS and the original writes to the DS.

When this happens, the BUG_ON() in nfs4_layoutreturn_done can
be triggered because it assumes that we would never call
layoutreturn without knowing that all I/O to the DS is
finished. The fix is to remove the BUG_ON() now that the
assumptions behind the test are obsolete.

Boaz Harrosh 7de6e28417 pnfs-obj: Better IO pattern in case of unaligned offset
Depending on layout and ARCH, ORE has some limits on max IO sizes
which is communicated on (what else) ore_layout->max_io_length,
which is always stripe aligned.
This was considered as the pg_test boundary for splitting and starting
a new IO.

But in the case of a long IO where the start offset is not aligned
what would happen is that both end of IO[N] and start of IO[N+1]
would be unaligned, causing each IO boundary parity unit to be
calculated and written twice.

So what we do in this patch is split the very start of an unaligned
IO, up to a stripe boundary, and then next IO's can continue fully
aligned til the end.

We might be sacrificing the case where the full unaligned IO would
fit within a single max_io_length, but the sacrifice is well worth
the elimination of double calculation and parity units IO.
Actually the sacrificing is marginal and is almost unmeasurable.

TODO:
	If we know the total expected linear segment that will
	be received, at pg_init, we could use that information
	in many places:
	1. blocks-layout get_layout write segment size
	2. Better mds-threshold
	3. In above situation for a better clean split

	I will do this in future submission.

Idan Kedar 8554116e17 pnfs: defer release of pages in layoutget
we have encountered a bug whereby reading a lot of files (copying
fedora's /bin) from a pNFS mount and hitting Ctrl+C in the middle caused
a general protection fault in xdr_shrink_bufhead. this function is
called when decoding the response from LAYOUTGET. the decoding is done
by a worker thread, and the caller of LAYOUTGET waits for the worker
thread to complete.

hitting Ctrl+C caused the synchronous wait to end and the next thing the
caller does is to free the pages, so when the worker thread calls
xdr_shrink_bufhead, the pages are gone. therefore, the cleanup of these
pages has been moved to nfs4_layoutget_release.

Mel Gorman 192e501b04 nfs: prevent page allocator recursions with swap over NFS.
GFP_NOFS is _more_ permissive than GFP_NOIO in that it will initiate IO,
just not of any filesystem data.

The problem is that previously NOFS was correct because that avoids
recursion into the NFS code.  With swap-over-NFS, it is no longer correct
as swap IO can lead to this recursion.

Mel Gorman 29418aa4bd nfs: disable data cache revalidation for swapfiles
The VM does not like PG_private set on PG_swapcache pages.  As suggested
by Trond in http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/8/25/348, this patch disables NFS
data cache revalidation on swap files.  as it does not make sense to have
other clients change the file while it is being used as swap.  This avoids
setting PG_private on swap pages, since there ought to be no further races
with invalidate_inode_pages2() to deal with.

Since we cannot set PG_private we cannot use page->private which is
already used by PG_swapcache pages to store the nfs_page.  Thus augment
the new nfs_page_find_request logic.

NeilBrown b042414feb nfs: increase number of permitted callback connections.
By default a sunrpc service is limited to (N+3)*20 connections
where N is the number of threads.  This is 80 when N==1.
If this number is exceeded a warning is printed suggesting that
the number of threads be increased.  However with services which
run a single thread, this is impossible.

For such services there is a ->sv_maxconn setting that can be
used to forcibly increase the limit, and silence the message.
This is used by lockd.

The nfs client uses a sunrpc service to handle callbacks and
it too is single-threaded, so to avoid the useless messages,
and to allow a reasonable number of concurrent connections,
we need to set ->sv_maxconn.  1024 seems like a good number.

David Howells a427b9ec4e NFS: Fix a number of bugs in the idmapper
Fix a number of bugs in the NFS idmapper code:

 (1) Only registered key types can be passed to the core keys code, so
     register the legacy idmapper key type.

     This is a requirement because the unregister function cleans up keys
     belonging to that key type so that there aren't dangling pointers to the
     module left behind - including the key->type pointer.

 (2) Rename the legacy key type.  You can't have two key types with the same
     name, and (1) would otherwise require that.

 (3) complete_request_key() must be called in the error path of
     nfs_idmap_legacy_upcall().

 (4) There is one idmap struct for each nfs_client struct.  This means that
     idmap->idmap_key_cons is shared without the use of a lock.  This is a
     problem because key_instantiate_and_link() - as called indirectly by
     idmap_pipe_downcall() - releases anyone waiting for the key to be
     instantiated.

     What happens is that idmap_pipe_downcall() running in the rpc.idmapd
     thread, releases the NFS filesystem in whatever thread that is running in
     to continue.  This may then make another idmapper call, overwriting
     idmap_key_cons before idmap_pipe_downcall() gets the chance to call
     complete_request_key().

     I *think* that reading idmap_key_cons only once, before
     key_instantiate_and_link() is called, and then caching the result in a
     variable is sufficient.

Bug (4) is the cause of:

rpciod is trying to allocate memory for a new socket to talk to the
server. The VM ends up calling ->releasepage to get more memory, and it
tries to do a blocking commit. That commit can't succeed however without
a connected socket, so we deadlock.

Fix this by setting PF_FSTRANS on the workqueue task prior to doing the
socket allocation, and having nfs_release_page check for that flag when
deciding whether to do a commit call. Also, set PF_FSTRANS
unconditionally in rpc_async_schedule since that function can also do
allocations sometimes.

Linus Torvalds a66d2c8f7e Merge branch 'for-linus-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs
Pull the big VFS changes from Al Viro:
 "This one is *big* and changes quite a few things around VFS.  What's in there:

   - the first of two really major architecture changes - death to open
     intents.

     The former is finally there; it was very long in making, but with
     Miklos getting through really hard and messy final push in
     fs/namei.c, we finally have it.  Unlike his variant, this one
     doesn't introduce struct opendata; what we have instead is
     ->atomic_open() taking preallocated struct file * and passing
     everything via its fields.

     Instead of returning struct file *, it returns -E...  on error, 0
     on success and 1 in "deal with it yourself" case (e.g.  symlink
     found on server, etc.).

     See comments before fs/namei.c:atomic_open().  That made a lot of
     goodies finally possible and quite a few are in that pile:
     ->lookup(), ->d_revalidate() and ->create() do not get struct
     nameidata * anymore; ->lookup() and ->d_revalidate() get lookup
     flags instead, ->create() gets "do we want it exclusive" flag.

     With the introduction of new helper (kern_path_locked()) we are rid
     of all struct nameidata instances outside of fs/namei.c; it's still
     visible in namei.h, but not for long.  Come the next cycle,
     declaration will move either to fs/internal.h or to fs/namei.c
     itself.  [me, miklos, hch]

   - The second major change: behaviour of final fput().  Now we have
     __fput() done without any locks held by caller *and* not from deep
     in call stack.

     That obviously lifts a lot of constraints on the locking in there.
     Moreover, it's legal now to call fput() from atomic contexts (which
     has immediately simplified life for aio.c).  We also don't need
     anti-recursion logics in __scm_destroy() anymore.

     There is a price, though - the damn thing has become partially
     asynchronous.  For fput() from normal process we are guaranteed
     that pending __fput() will be done before the caller returns to
     userland, exits or gets stopped for ptrace.

     For kernel threads and atomic contexts it's done via
     schedule_work(), so theoretically we might need a way to make sure
     it's finished; so far only one such place had been found, but there
     might be more.

     There's flush_delayed_fput() (do all pending __fput()) and there's
     __fput_sync() (fput() analog doing __fput() immediately).  I hope
     we won't need them often; see warnings in fs/file_table.c for
     details.  [me, based on task_work series from Oleg merged last
     cycle]

   - sync series from Jan

   - large part of "death to sync_supers()" work from Artem; the only
     bits missing here are exofs and ext4 ones.  As far as I understand,
     those are going via the exofs and ext4 trees resp.; once they are
     in, we can put ->write_super() to the rest, along with the thread
     calling it.

   - preparatory bits from unionmount series (from dhowells).

   - assorted cleanups and fixes all over the place, as usual.

  This is not the last pile for this cycle; there's at least jlayton's
  ESTALE work and fsfreeze series (the latter - in dire need of fixes,
  so I'm not sure it'll make the cut this cycle).  I'll probably throw
  symlink/hardlink restrictions stuff from Kees into the next pile, too.
  Plus there's a lot of misc patches I hadn't thrown into that one -
  it's large enough as it is..."
