0d62f85a81 NFSv4: Fix a BAD_SEQUENCEID condition.
We really shouldn't be resetting the sequence ids when doing state
expiration recovery, since we don't know if the server still remembers our
previous state owners. There are servers out there that do attempt to
preserve client state even if the lease has expired. Such a server would
only release that state if a conflicting OPEN request occurs.

9e33bed552 NFSv4: Add recovery for individual stateids
NFSv4 defines a number of state errors which the client does not currently
handle. Among those we should worry about are:
  NFS4ERR_ADMIN_REVOKED - the server's administrator revoked our locks
  			  and/or delegations.
  NFS4ERR_BAD_STATEID - the client and server are out of sync, possibly
                        due to a delegation return racing with an OPEN
			request.
  NFS4ERR_OPENMODE - the client attempted to do something not sanctioned
  		     by the open mode of the stateid. Should normally just
		     occur as a result of a delegation return race.

Now that we're using the flags to indicate state that needs to be
recovered, as well as having implemented proper refcounting and spinlocking
on the state and open_owners, we can get rid of nfs_client->cl_sem. The
only remaining case that was dubious was the file locking, and that case is

d740351bf0 NFS: add "[no]resvport" mount option
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." ]

flags down the stack to nfs_create_rpc_client().

This is immediately useful if we want NFS mount options to modulate

later point if other parts of the NFSv4 mount initialization logic
want to know what the mount options are.

136221fc32 nfs: remove redundant tests on reading new pages
aops->readpages() and its NFS helper readpage_async_filler() will only
be called to do readahead I/O for newly allocated pages. So it's not
necessary to test for the always 0 dirty/uptodate page flags.

The removal of nfs_wb_page() call also fixes a readahead bug: the NFS
readahead has been synchronous since 2.6.23, because that call will
clear PG_readahead, which is the reminder for asynchronous readahead.

More background: the PG_readahead page flag is shared with PG_reclaim,
one for read path and the other for write path. clear_page_dirty_for_io()
unconditionally clears PG_readahead to prevent possible readahead residuals,
assuming itself to be always called in the write path. However, NFS is one
and the only exception in that it _always_ calls clear_page_dirty_for_io()
in the read path, i.e. for readpages()/readpage().

f696a3659f [PATCH] move executable checking into ->permission()
For execute permission on a regular files we need to check if file has
any execute bits at all, regardless of capabilites.

This check is normally performed by generic_permission() but was also
added to the case when the filesystem defines its own ->permission()
method.  In the latter case the filesystem should be responsible for
performing this check.

Move the check from inode_permission() inside filesystems which are
not calling generic_permission().

Create a helper function execute_ok() that returns true if the inode
is a directory or if any execute bits are present in i_mode.

Also fix up the following code:

 - coda control file is never executable
 - sysctl files are never executable
 - hfs_permission seems broken on MAY_EXEC, remove
 - hfsplus_permission is eqivalent to generic_permission(), remove

4f98a2fee8 vmscan: split LRU lists into anon & file sets
Split the LRU lists in two, one set for pages that are backed by real file
systems ("file") and one for pages that are backed by memory and swap
("anon").  The latter includes tmpfs.

The advantage of doing this is that the VM will not have to scan over lots
of anonymous pages (which we generally do not want to swap out), just to
find the page cache pages that it should evict.

This patch has the infrastructure and a basic policy to balance how much
we scan the anon lists and how much we scan the file lists.  The big
policy changes are in separate patches.

5e2e7721f0 NFS: fix nfs_parse_ip_address() corner case
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.

03254e65a6 NFS: Fix attribute updates
This fixes a regression seen when running the Connectathon testsuite
against an ext3 filesystem. The reason was that the inode was constantly
being marked as 'just updated' by the jiffy wraparound test.
This again meant that newer GETATTR calls were failing to pass the
nfs_inode_attrs_need_update() test unless the changes caused a ctime update
on the server, since they were perceived as having been started before the
latest inode update.

Given that nfs_inode_attrs_need_update() already checks for wraparound
of nfsi->last_updated, we can drop the buggy "protection" in
nfs_update_inode().

Also make a slight micro-optimisation of nfs_inode_attrs_need_update(): we
are more often going to see time_after(fattr->time_start, nfsi->last_updated)
be true, rather than seeing an update of ctime/size, so put that test
first to ensure that we optimise away the ctime/size tests.

8491945f11 NFS: Client mounts hang when exported directory do not exist
This patch fixes a regression that was introduced by the string based mounts.

nfs_mount() statically returns -EACCES for every error returned
by the remote mounted. This is incorrect because -EACCES is
an non-fatal error to the mount.nfs command. This error causes
mount.nfs to retry the mount even in the case when the exported
directory does not exist.

This patch maps the errors returned by the remote mountd into
valid errno values, exactly how it was done pre-string based
mounts. By returning the correct errno enables mount.nfs
to do the right thing.

[Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com: nfs_stat_to_errno() now correctly returns
 negative errors, so remove the sign change.]

ea31a4437c nfs: Fix misparsing of nfsv4 fs_locations attribute
The code incorrectly assumes here that the server name (or ip address)
is null-terminated.  This can cause referrals to fail in some cases.

Also support ipv6 addresses.
