Andy Adamson cbdabc7f8b NFSv4.1: filelayout async error handler
Use our own async error handler.
Mark the layout as failed and retry i/o through the MDS on specified errors.

Update the mds_offset in nfs_readpage_retry so that a failed short-read retry
to a DS gets correctly resent through the MDS.

Chuck Lever bf2695516d SUNRPC: New xdr_streams XDR decoder API
Now that all client-side XDR decoder routines use xdr_streams, there
should be no need to support the legacy calling sequence [rpc_rqst *,
__be32 *, RPC res *] anywhere.  We can construct an xdr_stream in the
generic RPC code, instead of in each decoder function.

This is a refactoring change.  It should not cause different behavior.

Now that all client-side XDR encoder routines use xdr_streams, there
should be no need to support the legacy calling sequence [rpc_rqst *,

Also, all the client-side encoder functions return 0 now, making a
return value superfluous.  Take this opportunity to convert them to
return void instead.

Jeff Layton fbf4665f41 nfsd: populate sin6_scope_id on callback address with scopeid from rq_addr on SETCLIENTID call
When a SETCLIENTID call comes in, one of the args given is the svc_rqst.
This struct contains an rq_addr field which holds the address that sent
the call. If this is an IPv6 address, then we can use the sin6_scope_id
field in this address to populate the sin6_scope_id field in the
callback address.

AFAICT, the rq_addr.sin6_scope_id is non-zero if and only if the client
mounted the server's link-local address.

Chuck Lever a02d692611 SUNRPC: Provide functions for managing universal addresses
Introduce a set of functions in the kernel's RPC implementation for
converting between a socket address and either a standard
presentation address string or an RPC universal address.

The universal address functions will be used to encode and decode
RPCB_FOO and NFSv4 SETCLIENTID arguments.  The other functions are
part of a previous promise to deliver shared functions that can be
used by upper-layer protocols to display and manipulate IP
addresses.

The kernel's current address printf formatters were designed
specifically for kernel to user-space APIs that require a particular
string format for socket addresses, thus are somewhat limited for the
purposes of sunrpc.ko.  The formatter for IPv6 addresses, %pI6, does
not support short-handing or scope IDs.  Also, these printf formatters
are unique per address family, so a separate formatter string is
required for printing AF_INET and AF_INET6 addresses.

Chuck Lever 14aeb2118d SUNRPC: Simplify rpcb_register() API
Bruce suggested there's no need to expose the difference between an error
sending the PMAP_SET request and an error reply from the portmapper to
rpcb_register's callers.  The user space equivalent of rpcb_register() is
pmap_set(3), which returns a bool_t : either the PMAP set worked, or it
didn't.  Simple.

So let's remove the "*okay" argument from rpcb_register() and
rpcb_v4_register(), and simply return an error if any part of the call
didn't work.

Chuck Lever c2e1b09ff2 SUNRPC: Support registering IPv6 interfaces with local rpcbind daemon
Introduce a new API to register RPC services on IPv6 interfaces to allow
the NFS server and lockd to advertise on IPv6 networks.

Unlike rpcb_register(), the new rpcb_v4_register() function uses rpcbind
protocol version 4 to contact the local rpcbind daemon.  The version 4
SET/UNSET procedures allow services to register address families besides
AF_INET, register at specific network interfaces, and register transport
protocols besides UDP and TCP.  All of this functionality is exposed via
the new rpcb_v4_register() kernel API.

A user-space rpcbind daemon implementation that supports version 4 of the
rpcbind protocol is required in order to make use of this new API.

Note that rpcbind version 3 is sufficient to support the new rpcbind
facilities listed above, but most extant implementations use version 4.

Olga Kornievskaia b6b6152c46 rpc: bring back cl_chatty
The cl_chatty flag alows us to control whether a given rpc client leaves

	"server X not responding, timed out"

messages in the syslog.  Such messages make sense for ordinary nfs
clients (where an unresponsive server means applications on the
mountpoint are probably hanging), but not for the callback client (which
can fail more commonly, with the only result just of disabling some
optimizations).

Previously cl_chatty was removed, do to lack of users; reinstate it, and
use it for the nfsd's callback client.

Chuck Lever 2bea90d43a SUNRPC: RPC buffer size estimates are too large
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!

Chuck Lever 43d78ef2ba NFS: disconnect before retrying NFSv4 requests over TCP
RFC3530 section 3.1.1 states an NFSv4 client MUST NOT send a request
twice on the same connection unless it is the NULL procedure.  Section
3.1.1 suggests that the client should disconnect and reconnect if it
wants to retry a request.

Implement this by adding an rpc_clnt flag that an ULP can use to
specify that the underlying transport should be disconnected on a
major timeout.  The NFSv4 client asserts this new flag, and requests
no retries after a minor retransmit timeout.

Note that disconnecting on a retransmit is in general not safe to do
if the RPC client does not reuse the TCP port number when reconnecting.
