Trond Myklebust 4584f520e1 NFS: Fix NFS mountpoint crossing...
The check that was added to nfs_xdev_get_sb() to work around broken
servers, works fine for NFSv2, but causes mountpoint crossing on NFSv3 to
always return ESTALE.

Neil Brown 4c1fe2f78a kernel BUG at fs/nfs/namespace.c:108! - can be triggered by bad server
Hi Trond,

I have discovered that the BUG_ON in nfs_follow_mountpoint:

	BUG_ON(IS_ROOT(dentry));

can be triggered by a misbehaving server.

What happens is the client does a lookup and discoveres that the named
directory has a different fsid, so it initiates a mount.
It then performs a GETATTR on the mounted directory and gets a
different fsid again (due to a bug in the NFS server).
This causes nfs_follow_mountpoint to be called on the newly mounted
root, which triggers the BUG_ON.

To duplicate this, have a directory which contains some mountpoints,
and export that directory with the "crossmnt" flag using nfs-utils
1.1.1 (or 1.1.0 I think)

The GETATTR on the root of the mounted filesystem will return the
information for the top exportpoint, while a lookup will return the
correct information.  This difference causes the NFS client to BUG.

I think the best way to fix this is to trap this possibility early, so
just before completing the mount in the NFS client, check that it isn't
going to use nfs_mountpoint_inode_operations.
As long as i_op will never change once set (is that true?), this
should be adequately safe.

The following patch shows a possible approach, and it works for me.
i.e. when the NFS server is misbehaving, I get ESTALE on those
mountpoints, while when the NFS server is working correctly, I get
correct behaviour on the client.

I got the 'mounthost=' option wrong - it shouldn't look for an address
value, but rather a hostname value.  However, the in-kernel mount client

Create a new mount option that does take an address so that the mount
program's address can be passed in.  The mount hostname is now ignored

Jeff Layton ddc01c0813 [NFS] [PATCH] NFS: show addr=ipaddr in /proc/mounts rather than
A minor thing, but useful when working with a server with multiple
addrs. This looks like it might also be necessary if Miklos' effort
to eliminate /etc/mtab ever comes to fruition.

When displaying mount options in /proc/mounts, the kernel prints
"addr=hostname". This info is redundant since we already have the
hostname displayed as part of the "device" section of the mount. This
patch changes it to display the IP address to which the socket is
connected.

Trond Myklebust e89a5a43b9 NFS: Fix the mount regression
This avoids the recent NFS mount regression (returning EBUSY when
mounting the same filesystem twice with different parameters).

The best I can do given the constraints appears to be to have the kernel
first look for a superblock that matches both the fsid and the
user-specified mount options, and then spawn off a new superblock if
that search fails.

Note that this is not the same as specifying nosharecache everywhere
since nosharecache will never attempt to match an existing superblock.

Trond Myklebust 75180df2ed NFS: Add the mount option "nosharecache"
Prior to David Howell's mount changes in 2.6.18, users who mounted
different directories which happened to be from the same filesystem on the
server would get different super blocks, and hence could choose different
mount options. As long as there were no hard linked files that crossed from
one subtree to another, this was quite safe.
Post the changes, if the two directories are on the same filesystem (have
the same 'fsid'), they will share the same super block, and hence the same
mount options.

Add a flag to allow users to elect not to share the NFS super block with
another mount point, even if the fsids are the same. This will allow
users to set different mount options for the two different super blocks, as
was previously possible. It is still up to the user to ensure that there
are no cache coherency issues when doing this, however the default
behaviour will be to share super blocks whenever two paths result in
the same fsid.

Chuck Lever 0655960f76 NFS: Clean up error handling in nfs_get_sb
The error return logic in nfs_get_sb now matches nfs4_get_sb, and is more maintainable.
A subsequent patch will take advantage of this simplification.

Steve Dickson 74dd34e6e8 NFS: Added support to turn off the NFSv3 READDIRPLUS RPC.
READDIRPLUS can be a performance hindrance when the client is working with
large directories. In addition, some servers still have bugs in their
implementations (e.g. Tru64 returns wrong values for the fsid).

Add a mount flag to enable users to turn it off at mount time following the
implementation in Apple's NFS client.

Amnon Aaronsohn 1a0ba9ae48 NFS: statfs error-handling fix
The nfs statfs function returns a success code on error, and fills the
output buffer with invalid values.  The attached patch makes it return a
correct error code instead.

Peter Zijlstra 89a09141df [PATCH] nfs: fix congestion control
The current NFS client congestion logic is severly broken, it marks the
backing device congested during each nfs_writepages() call but doesn't
mirror this in nfs_writepage() which makes for deadlocks.  Also it
implements its own waitqueue.

Replace this by a more regular congestion implementation that puts a cap on
the number of active writeback pages and uses the bdi congestion waitqueue.

Also always use an interruptible wait since it makes sense to be able to
SIGKILL the process even for mounts without 'intr'.

Mark Fasheh 349457ccf2 [PATCH] Allow file systems to manually d_move() inside of ->rename()
Some file systems want to manually d_move() the dentries involved in a
rename.  We can do this by making use of the FS_ODD_RENAME flag if we just
have nfs_rename() unconditionally do the d_move().  While there, we rename
the flag to be more descriptive.

OCFS2 uses this to protect that part of the rename operation with a cluster
lock.

Trond Myklebust 51b6ded4d9 NFSv4: When mounting with a port=0 argument, substitute port=2049
RFC3530 states that the registered port 2049 for the NFS protocol should be
the default configuration in order to allow clients not to use the RPC
binding protocols.
If the mount program sends us a port=0, we therefore substitute port=2049.
