Trond Myklebust 683ac6656c gss_krb5: Add upcall info indicating supported kerberos enctypes
The text based upcall now indicates which Kerberos encryption types are
supported by the kernel rpcsecgss code.  This is used by gssd to
determine which encryption types it should attempt to negotiate
when creating a context with a server.

The server principal's database and keytab encryption types are
what limits what it should negotiate.  Therefore, its keytab
should be created with only the enctypes listed by this file.

Currently we support des-cbc-crc, des-cbc-md4 and des-cbc-md5

Tejun Heo 5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Jeff Layton dc5ddce956 sunrpc: parse and return errors reported by gssd
The kernel currently ignores any error code sent by gssd and always
considers it to be -EACCES. In order to better handle the situation of
an expired KRB5 TGT, the kernel needs to be able to parse and deal with
the errors that gssd sends. Aside from -EACCES the only error we care
about is -EKEYEXPIRED, which we're using to indicate that the upper
layers should retry the call a little later.

To maintain backward compatibility with older gssd's, any error other
than -EKEYEXPIRED is interpreted as -EACCES.

Jeff Layton 486bad2e40 sunrpc: on successful gss error pipe write, don't return error
When handling the gssd downcall, the kernel should distinguish between a
successful downcall that contains an error code and a failed downcall
(i.e. where the parsing failed or some other sort of problem occurred).

In the former case, gss_pipe_downcall should be returning the number of
bytes written to the pipe instead of an error. In the event of other
errors, we generally want the initiating task to retry the upcall so
we set msg.errno to -EAGAIN. An unexpected error code here is a bug
however, so BUG() in that case.

Olga Kornievskaia 2efef7080f rpc: add service field to new upcall
This patch extends the new upcall with a "service" field that currently
can have 2 values: "*" or "nfs". These values specify matching rules for
principals in the keytab file. The "*" means that gssd is allowed to use
"root", "nfs", or "host" keytab entries while the other option requires
"nfs".

Restricting gssd to use the "nfs" principal is needed for when the
server performs a callback to the client.  The server in this case has
to authenticate itself as an "nfs" principal.

We also need "service" field to distiguish between two client-side cases
both currently using a uid of 0: the case of regular file access by the
root user, and the case of state-management calls (such as setclientid)
which should use a keytab for authentication.  (And the upcall should
fail if an appropriate principal can't be found.)

Olga Kornievskaia 68e76ad0ba nfsd: pass client principal name in rsc downcall
Two principals are involved in krb5 authentication: the target, who we
authenticate *to* (normally the name of the server, like
nfs/server.citi.umich.edu@CITI.UMICH.EDU), and the source, we we
authenticate *as* (normally a user, like bfields@UMICH.EDU)

In the case of NFSv4 callbacks, the target of the callback should be the
source of the client's setclientid call, and the source should be the
nfs server's own principal.

Therefore we allow svcgssd to pass down the name of the principal that
just authenticated, so that on setclientid we can store that principal
name with the new client, to be used later on callbacks.

Jeff Layton 6dcd3926b2 sunrpc: fix code that makes auth_gss send destroy_cred message (try #2)
There's a bit of a chicken and egg problem when it comes to destroying
auth_gss credentials. When we destroy the last instance of a GSSAPI RPC
credential, we should send a NULL RPC call with a GSS procedure of
RPCSEC_GSS_DESTROY to hint to the server that it can destroy those
creds.

This isn't happening because we're setting clearing the uptodate bit on
the credentials and then setting the operations to the gss_nullops. When
we go to do the RPC call, we try to refresh the creds. That fails with
-EACCES and the call fails.

Fix this by not clearing the UPTODATE bit for the credentials and adding
a new crdestroy op for gss_nullops that just tears down the cred without
trying to destroy the context.

The only difference between this patch and the first one is the removal
of some minor formatting deltas.

Trond Myklebust 88a9fe8cae SUNRPC: Remove the last remnant of the BKL...
Somehow, this escaped the previous purge. There should be no need to keep
any extra locks in the XDR callbacks.

The NFS client XDR code only writes into private objects, whereas all reads
of shared objects are confined to fields that do not change, such as
filehandles...

Ditto for lockd, the NFSv2/v3 client mount code, and rpcbind.

The nfsd XDR code may require the BKL, but since it does a synchronous RPC
call from a thread that already holds the lock, that issue is moot.

\\\"J. Bruce Fields\\\ d25a03cf96 rpc: remove some unused macros
There used to be a print_hexl() function that used isprint(), now gone.
I don't know why NFS_NGROUPS and CA_RUN_AS_MACHINE were here.

I also don't know why another #define that's actually used was marked
"unused".
