nfsd_open() gets an unrefcounted pointer to the current process's effective
credentials at the top of the function, then calls nfsd_setuser() via
fh_verify() - which may replace and destroy the current process's effective
credentials - and then passes the unrefcounted pointer to dentry_open() - but
the credentials may have been destroyed by this point.

Instead, the value from current_cred() should be passed directly to
dentry_open() as one of its arguments, rather than being cached in a variable.

Possibly fh_verify() should return the creds to use.

This is a regression introduced by
745ca247 "CRED: Pass credentials through
dentry_open()".

NFSv3 and above can use unstable writes whenever they are sending more
than one write, rather than relying on the flaky write gathering
heuristics. More often than not, write gathering is currently getting it
wrong when the NFSv3 clients are sending a single write with FILE_SYNC
for efficiency reasons.

This patch turns off write gathering for NFSv3/v4, and ensures that
it only applies to the one case that can actually benefit: namely NFSv2.

An nfsd exported file is opened/closed by the kernel causing the
integrity imbalance message.

Before a file is opened, there normally is permission checking, which
is done in inode_permission().  However, as integrity checking requires
a dentry and mount point, which is not available in inode_permission(),
the integrity (permission) checking must be called separately.

In order to detect any missing integrity checking calls, we keep track
of file open/closes.  ima_path_check() increments these counts and
does the integrity (permission) checking. As a result, the number of
calls to ima_path_check()/ima_file_free() should be balanced.  An extra
call to fput(), indicates the file could have been accessed without first
calling ima_path_check().

In nfsv3 permission checking is done once, followed by multiple reads,
which do an open/close for each read.  The integrity (permission) checking
call should be in nfsd_permission() after the inode_permission() call, but
as there is no correlation between the number of permission checking and
open calls, the integrity checking call should not increment the counters,
but defer it to when the file is actually opened.

This patch adds:
- integrity (permission) checking for nfsd exported files in nfsd_permission().
- a call to increment counts for files opened by nfsd.

This patch has been updated to return the nfs error types.

Commit 'Short write in nfsd becomes a full write to the client'
(31dec253) broken the sync write.
With the following commands to reproduce:

  $ mount -t nfs -o sync 192.168.0.21:/nfsroot /mnt
  $ cd /mnt
  $ echo aaaa > temp.txt

Then nfs client is hung up.

In SYNC mode the server alaways return the write count 0 to the
client. This is because the value of host_err in nfsd_vfs_write()
will be overwrite in SYNC mode by 'host_err=nfsd_sync(file);',
and then we return host_err(which is now 0) as write count.

This patch fixed the problem.

Commit 14f7dd63 ("Copy XFS readdir hack into nfsd code") introduced a
bug to generic code which had been extant for a long time in the XFS
version -- it started to call through into lookup_one_len() and hence
into the file systems' ->lookup() methods without i_mutex held on the
directory.

This patch fixes it by locking the directory's i_mutex again before
calling the filldir functions. The original deadlocks which commit
14f7dd63 was designed to avoid are still avoided, because they were due
to fs-internal locking, not i_mutex.

While we're at it, fix the return type of nfsd_buffered_readdir() which
should be a __be32 not an int -- it's an NFS errno, not a Linux errno.
And return nfserrno(-ENOMEM) when allocation fails, not just -ENOMEM.
Sparse would have caught that, if it wasn't so busy bitching about
__cold__.

Commit 05f4f678 ("nfsd4: don't do lookup within readdir in recovery
code") introduced a similar problem with calling lookup_one_len()
without i_mutex, which this patch also addresses. To fix that, it was
necessary to fix the called functions so that they expect i_mutex to be
held; that part was done by J. Bruce Fields.

There is an inconsistency seen in the behaviour of nfs compared to other local
filesystems on linux when changing owner or group of a directory. If the
directory has SUID/SGID flags set, on changing owner or group on the directory,
the flags are stripped off on nfs. These flags are maintained on other
filesystems such as ext3.

To reproduce on a nfs share or local filesystem, run the following commands
mkdir test; chmod +s+g test; chown user1 test; ls -ld test

On the nfs share, the flags are stripped and the output seen is
drwxr-xr-x 2 user1 root 4096 Feb 23  2009 test

On other local filesystems(ex: ext3), the flags are not stripped and the output
seen is
drwsr-sr-x 2 user1 root 4096 Feb 23 13:57 test

chown_common() called from sys_chown() will only strip the flags if the inode is
not a directory.
static int chown_common(struct dentry * dentry, uid_t user, gid_t group)
{
..
        if (!S_ISDIR(inode->i_mode))
                newattrs.ia_valid |=
                        ATTR_KILL_SUID | ATTR_KILL_SGID | ATTR_KILL_PRIV;
..
}

See: http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/7990989775/xsh/chown.html

"If the path argument refers to a regular file, the set-user-ID (S_ISUID) and
set-group-ID (S_ISGID) bits of the file mode are cleared upon successful return
from chown(), unless the call is made by a process with appropriate privileges,
in which case it is implementation-dependent whether these bits are altered. If
chown() is successfully invoked on a file that is not a regular file, these
bits may be cleared. These bits are defined in <sys/stat.h>."

The behaviour as it stands does not appear to violate POSIX.  However the
actions performed are inconsistent when comparing ext3 and nfs.

If a filesystem being written to via NFS returns a short write count
(as opposed to an error) to nfsd, nfsd treats that as a success for
the entire write, rather than the short count that actually succeeded.

For example, given a 8192 byte write, if the underlying filesystem
only writes 4096 bytes, nfsd will ack back to the nfs client that all
8192 bytes were written.  The nfs client does have retry logic for
short writes, but this is never called as the client is told the
complete write succeeded.

There are probably other ways it could happen, but in my case it
happened with a fuse (filesystem in userspace) filesystem which can
rather easily have a partial write.

Here is a patch to properly return the short write count to the
client.

sometimes HPUX nfs client sends a create request to linux nfs server(v2/v3).
the dump of the request is like:
    obj_attributes
        mode: value follows
            set_it: value follows (1)
            mode: 00
        uid: no value
            set_it: no value (0)
        gid: value follows
            set_it: value follows (1)
            gid: 8030
        size: value follows
            set_it: value follows (1)
            size: 0
        atime: don't change
            set_it: don't change (0)
        mtime: don't change
            set_it: don't change (0)

note that mode is 00(havs no rwx privilege even for the owner) and it requires
to set size to 0.

as current nfsd(v2/v3) implementation, the server does mainly 2 steps:
1) creates the file in mode specified by calling vfs_create().
2) sets attributes for the file by calling nfsd_setattr().

at step 2), it finally calls file system specific setattr() function which may
fail when checking permission because changing size needs WRITE privilege but
it has none since mode is 000.

for this case, a new file created, we may simply ignore the request of
setting size to 0, so that WRITE privilege is not needed and the open
succeeds.

Fsync currently has a fdatawrite/fdatawait pair around the method call,
and a mutex_lock/unlock of the inode mutex.  All callers of fsync have
to duplicate this, but we have a few and most of them don't quite get
it right.  This patch adds a new vfs_fsync that takes care of this.
It's a little more complicated as usual as ->fsync might get a NULL file
pointer and just a dentry from nfsd, but otherwise gets afile and we
want to take the mapping and file operations from it when it is there.

Notes on the fsync callers:

 - ecryptfs wasn't calling filemap_fdatawrite / filemap_fdatawait on the
   	lower file
 - coda wasn't calling filemap_fdatawrite / filemap_fdatawait on the host
	file, and returning 0 when ->fsync was missing
 - shm wasn't calling either filemap_fdatawrite / filemap_fdatawait nor
   taking i_mutex.  Now given that shared memory doesn't have disk
   backing not doing anything in fsync seems fine and I left it out of
   the vfs_fsync conversion for now, but in that case we might just
   not pass it through to the lower file at all but just call the no-op
   simple_sync_file directly.

Commit 8d7c4203 "nfsd: fix failure to set eof in readdir in some
situations" introduced a bug: on a directory in an exported ext3
filesystem with dir_index unset, a READDIR will only return about 250
entries, even if the directory was larger.

Bisected it back to this commit; reverting it fixes the problem.

It turns out that in this case ext3 reads a block at a time, then
returns from readdir, which means we can end up with buf.full==0 but
with more entries in the directory still to be read.  Before 8d7c4203
(but after c002a6c7 "Optimise NFS readdir hack slightly"), this would
cause us to return the READDIR result immediately, but with the eof bit
unset.  That could cause a performance regression (because the client
would need more roundtrips to the server to read the whole directory),
but no loss in correctness, since the cleared eof bit caused the client
to send another readdir.  After 8d7c4203, the setting of the eof bit
made this a correctness problem.

So, move nfserr_eof into the loop and remove the buf.full check so that
we loop until buf.used==0.  The following seems to do the right thing
and reduces the network traffic since we don't return a READDIR result
until the buffer is full.

Tested on an empty directory & large directory; eof is properly sent and
there are no more short buffers.

This ensures the "eof" bit is set when needed in readdir replies.  (The

Signed-off-by: NAl Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

Some file systems with their own internal locking have problems with the
way that nfsd calls the ->lookup() method from within a filldir function
called from their ->readdir() method. The recursion back into the file
system code can cause deadlock.

XFS has a fairly hackish solution to this which involves doing the
readdir() into a locally-allocated buffer, then going back through it
calling the filldir function afterwards. It's not ideal, but it works.

It's particularly suboptimal because XFS does this for local file
systems too, where it's completely unnecessary.

Copy this hack into the NFS code where it can be used only for NFS
export. In response to feedback, use it unconditionally rather than only
for the affected file systems.

I had a report from someone building a large NFS server that they were

large allocation in nfsd_racache_init failing.

It appears that the slub allocator handles large allocations better,
but large contiguous allocations can often be problematic. There
doesn't seem to be any reason that the racache has to be allocated as a
single large chunk. This patch breaks this up so that the racache is
built up from separate allocations.

RFC 2623 section 2.3.2 permits the server to bypass gss authentication
checks for certain operations that a client may perform when mounting.
In the case of a client that doesn't have some form of credentials
available to it on boot, this allows it to perform the mount unattended.
(Presumably real file access won't be needed until a user with
credentials logs in.)

Being slightly more lenient allows lots of old clients to access
krb5-only exports, with the only loss being a small amount of
information leaked about the root directory of the export.

This affects only v2 and v3; v4 still requires authentication for all
access.

Currently, knfsd only clears the setuid bit if the owner of a file is
changed on a SETATTR call, and only clears the setgid bit if the group
is changed. POSIX says this in the spec for chown():

    "If the specified file is a regular file, one or more of the
     S_IXUSR, S_IXGRP, or S_IXOTH bits of the file mode are set, and the
     process does not have appropriate privileges, the set-user-ID
     (S_ISUID) and set-group-ID (S_ISGID) bits of the file mode shall
     be cleared upon successful return from chown()."

If I'm reading this correctly, then knfsd is doing this wrong. It should
be clearing both the setuid and setgid bit on any SETATTR that changes
the uid or gid. This wasn't really as noticable before, but now that the
ATTR_KILL_S*ID bits are a no-op for the NFS client, it's more evident.

This patch corrects the nfsd_setattr logic so that this occurs. It also
does a bit of cleanup to the function.

There is also one small behavioral change. If a SETATTR call comes in
that changes the uid/gid and the mode, then we now only clear the setgid
bit if the group execute bit isn't set. The setgid bit without a group
execute bit signifies mandatory locking and we likely don't want to
clear the bit in that case. Since there is no call in POSIX that should
generate a SETATTR call like this, then this should rarely happen, but
it's worth noting.
