      NFS: Handle a zero-length auth flavor list · 5eecfde6
      Chuck Lever 提交于
      Some releases of Linux rpc.mountd (nfs-utils 1.1.4 and later) return an
      empty auth flavor list if no sec= was specified for the export.  This is
      notably broken server behavior.
      
      The new auth flavor list checking added in a recent commit rejects this
      case.  The OpenSolaris client does too.
      
      The broken mountd implementation is already widely deployed.  To avoid
      a behavioral regression, the kernel's mount client skips flavor checking
      (ie reverts to the pre-2.6.32 behavior) if mountd returns an empty
      flavor list.

      NFS: Add mount options to enable local caching on NFS · b797cac7
      David Howells 提交于
      Add NFS mount options to allow the local caching support to be enabled.
      
      The attached patch makes it possible for the NFS filesystem to be told to make
      use of the network filesystem local caching service (FS-Cache).
      
      To be able to use this, a recent nfsutils package is required.
      
      There are three variant NFS mount options that can be added to a mount command
      to control caching for a mount.  Only the last one specified takes effect:
      
       (*) Adding "fsc" will request caching.
      
       (*) Adding "fsc=<string>" will request caching and also specify a uniquifier.
      
       (*) Adding "nofsc" will disable caching.
      
      For example:
      
      	mount warthog:/ /a -o fsc
      
      The cache of a particular superblock (NFS FSID) will be shared between all
      mounts of that volume, provided they have the same connection parameters and
      are not marked 'nosharecache'.
      
      Where it is otherwise impossible to distinguish superblocks because all the
      parameters are identical, but the 'nosharecache' option is supplied, a
      uniquifying string must be supplied, else only the first mount will be
      permitted to use the cache.
      
      If there's a key collision, then the second mount will disable caching and give
      a warning into the kernel log.

      NFS: Add some new I/O counters for FS-Cache doing things for NFS · 6a51091d
      David Howells 提交于
      Add some new NFS I/O counters for FS-Cache doing things for NFS.  A new line is
      emitted into /proc/pid/mountstats if caching is enabled that looks like:
      
      	fsc: <rok> <rfl> <wok> <wfl> <unc>
      
      Where <rok> is the number of pages read successfully from the cache, <rfl> is
      the number of failed page reads against the cache, <wok> is the number of
      successful page writes to the cache, <wfl> is the number of failed page writes
      to the cache, and <unc> is the number of NFS pages that have been disconnected
      from the cache.

      NFS: Define and create superblock-level objects · 08734048
      David Howells 提交于
      Define and create superblock-level cache index objects (as managed by
      nfs_server structs).
      
      Each superblock object is created in a server level index object and is itself
      an index into which inode-level objects are inserted.
      
      Ideally there would be one superblock-level object per server, and the former
      would be folded into the latter; however, since the "nosharecache" option
      exists this isn't possible.
      
      The superblock object key is a sequence consisting of:
      
       (1) Certain superblock s_flags.
      
       (2) Various connection parameters that serve to distinguish superblocks for
           sget().
      
       (3) The volume FSID.
      
       (4) The security flavour.
      
       (5) The uniquifier length.
      
       (6) The uniquifier text.  This is normally an empty string, unless the fsc=xyz
           mount option was used to explicitly specify a uniquifier.
      
      The key blob is of variable length, depending on the length of (6).
      
      The superblock object is given no coherency data to carry in the auxiliary data
      permitted by the cache.  It is assumed that the superblock is always coherent.
      
      This patch also adds uniquification handling such that two otherwise identical
      superblocks, at least one of which is marked "nosharecache", won't end up
      trying to share the on-disk cache.  It will be possible to manually provide a
      uniquifier through a mount option with a later patch to avoid the error
      otherwise produced.

      Chuck Lever 提交于
      If the admin has specified the "noresvport" option for an NFS mount
      point, the kernel's NFS client uses an unprivileged source port for
      the main NFS transport.  The kernel's mountd client should use an
      unprivileged port in this case as well.

      NFS: add "[no]resvport" mount option · d740351b
      Chuck Lever 提交于
      The standard default security setting for NFS is AUTH_SYS.  An NFS
      client connects to NFS servers via a privileged source port and a
      fixed standard destination port (2049).  The client sends raw uid and
      gid numbers to identify users making NFS requests, and the server
      assumes an appropriate authority on the client has vetted these
      values because the source port is privileged.
      
      On Linux, by default in-kernel RPC services use a privileged port in
      the range between 650 and 1023 to avoid using source ports of well-
      known IP services.  Using such a small range limits the number of NFS
      mount points and the number of unique NFS servers to which a client
      can connect concurrently.
      
      An NFS client can use unprivileged source ports to expand the range of
      source port numbers, allowing more concurrent server connections and
      more NFS mount points.  Servers must explicitly allow NFS connections
      from unprivileged ports for this to work.
      
      In the past, bumping the value of the sunrpc.max_resvport sysctl on
      the client would permit the NFS client to use unprivileged ports.
      Bumping this setting also changes the maximum port number used by
      other in-kernel RPC services, some of which still required a port
      number less than 1023.
      
      This is exacerbated by the way source port numbers are chosen by the
      Linux RPC client, which starts at the top of the range and works
      downwards.  It means that bumping the maximum means all RPC services
      requesting a source port will likely get an unprivileged port instead
      of a privileged one.
      
      Changing this setting effects all NFS mount points on a client.  A
      sysadmin could not selectively choose which mount points would use
      non-privileged ports and which could not.
      
      Lastly, this mechanism of expanding the limit on the number of NFS
      mount points was entirely undocumented.
      
      To address the need for the NFS client to use a large range of source
      ports without interfering with the activity of other in-kernel RPC
      services, we introduce a new NFS mount option.  This option explicitly
      tells only the NFS client to use a non-privileged source port when
      communicating with the NFS server for one specific mount point.
      
      This new mount option is called "resvport," like the similar NFS mount
      option on FreeBSD and Mac OS X.  A sister patch for nfs-utils will be
      submitted that documents this new option in nfs(5).
      
      The default setting for this new mount option requires the NFS client
      to use a privileged port, as before.  Explicitly specifying the
      "noresvport" mount option allows the NFS client to use an unprivileged
      source port for this mount point when connecting to the NFS server
      port.
      
      This mount option is supported only for text-based NFS mounts.
      
      [ Sidebar: it is widely known that security mechanisms based on the
        use of privileged source ports are ineffective.  However, the NFS
        client can combine the use of unprivileged ports with the use of
        secure authentication mechanisms, such as Kerberos.  This allows a
        large number of connections and mount points while ensuring a useful
        level of security.
      
        Eventually we may change the default setting for this option
        depending on the security flavor used for the mount.  For example,
        if the mount is using only AUTH_SYS, then the default setting will
        be "resvport;" if the mount is using a strong security flavor such
        as krb5, the default setting will be "noresvport." ]

      NFS: fix nfs_parse_ip_address() corner case · 5e2e7721
      Chuck Lever 提交于
      Bruce observed that nfs_parse_ip_address() will successfully parse an
      IPv6 address that looks like this:
      
        "::1%"
      
      A scope delimiter is present, but there is no scope ID following it.
      This is harmless, as it would simply set the scope ID to zero.  However,
      in some cases we would like to flag this as an improperly formed
      address.
      
      We are now also careful to reject addresses where garbage follows the
      address (up to the length of the string), instead of ignoring the
      non-address characters; and where the scope ID is nonsense (not a valid
      device name, but also not numeric).  Before, both of these cases would
      result in a harmless zero scope ID.
