Chuck Lever d23c45fd84 NFS: Invalid mount option values should always fail, even with "sloppy"
Ian Kent reports:

"I've noticed a couple of other regressions with the options vers
and proto option of mount.nfs(8).

The commands:

mount -t nfs -o vers=<invalid version> <server>:/<path> /<mountpoint>
mount -t nfs -o proto=<invalid proto> <server>:/<path> /<mountpoint>

both immediately fail.

But if the "-s" option is also used they both succeed with the
mount falling back to defaults (by the look of it).

In the past these failed even when the sloppy option was given, as
I think they should. I believe the sloppy option is meant to allow
the mount command to still function for mount options (for example
in shared autofs maps) that exist on other Unix implementations but
aren't present in the Linux mount.nfs(8). So, an invalid value
specified for a known mount option is different to an unknown mount
option and should fail appropriately."

Chuck Lever 8e02f6b9aa NFS: Update MNT and MNT3 reply decoding functions
Solder xdr_stream-based XDR decoding functions into the in-kernel mountd
client that are more careful about checking data types and watching for
buffer overflows.  The new MNT3 decoder includes support for auth-flavor
list decoding.

The "_sz" macro for MNT3 replies was missing the size of the file handle.
I've added this back, and included the size of the auth flavor array.

Chuck Lever a14017db28 NFS: add XDR decoder for mountd version 3 auth-flavor lists
Introduce an xdr_stream-based XDR decoder that can unpack the auth-
flavor list returned in a MNT3 reply.

The nfs_mount() function's caller allocates an array, and passes the
size and a pointer to it.  The decoder decodes all the flavors it can
into the array, and returns the number of decoded flavors.

If the caller is not interested in the auth flavors, it can pass a
value of zero as the size of the pre-allocated array.

Chuck Lever fb12529577 NFS: Add separate mountd status code decoders for each mountd version
Introduce data structures and xdr_stream-based decoding functions for
unmarshalling mountd status codes properly.

Mountd version 3 uses specific standard error return codes that are
not errno values and not NFS3ERR_ values.  These have a well-defined
standard mapping to local errno values.  Introduce data structures
and a decoder function that map these status codes to local errno
values properly.  This is new functionality (but not used yet).

Version 1 mountd status values are defined by RFC 1094 as UNIX error
values (errno values).  Errno values on heterogeneous systems do not
necessarily match each other.  To avoid exposing possibly incorrect
errno values to upper layers, the current XDR decoder converts all
non-zero MNT version 1 status codes to -EACCES.

The OpenGroup XNFS standard provides a mapping similar to but smaller
than the version 3 error codes.  Implement a decoder that uses the XNFS
error codes, replacing the current decoder.

For both mountd protocol versions, map unrecognized errors to -EACCES.

Finally we introduce a replacement data structure for mnt_fhstatus
at this time, which is used by the new XDR decoders.  In addition to
documenting that the status value returned by the XDR decoders is
always an errno, this new structure will be expanded in subsequent
patches.

Suresh Jayaraman bf40d3435c NFS: add support for splice writes
Adds support for splice writes. It effectively calls
generic_file_splice_write() to do the writes.

We need not worry about O_APPEND case as the combination of splice()
writes and O_APPEND is disallowed. This patch propagates NFS write
errors back to the caller. The number of bytes written via splice are
being added to NFSIO_NORMALWRITTENBYTES as these are effectively

It is possible for servers to return NFS4ERR_BAD_STATEID when
the state management code is recovering locks or is reclaiming state when

While we're at it, add in handlers for NFS4ERR_STALE,
NFS4ERR_ADMIN_REVOKED, NFS4ERR_OPENMODE, NFS4ERR_DENIED and
NFS4ERR_STALE_STATEID, since the protocol appears to allow for them too.

Also handle ENOMEM...

Finally, rather than add new NFSv4.0-specific errors and error handling into
the generic delegation code, move that open file and locking state error
handling into the NFSv4 layer.

Thomas Gleixner 8b0b1db013 remove put_cpu_no_resched()
put_cpu_no_resched() is an optimization of put_cpu() which unfortunately
can cause high latencies.

The nfs iostats code uses put_cpu_no_resched() in a code sequence where a
reschedule request caused by an interrupt between the get_cpu() and the
put_cpu_no_resched() can delay the reschedule for at least HZ.

The other users of put_cpu_no_resched() optimize correctly in interrupt
code, but there is no real harm in using the put_cpu() function which is
an alias for preempt_enable().  The extra check of the preemmpt count is
not as critical as the potential source of missing a reschedule.

Debugged in the preempt-rt tree and verified in mainline.

Impact: remove a high latency source

David Howells b797cac748 NFS: Add mount options to enable local caching on NFS
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.

David Howells 10329a5d48 NFS: Define and create inode-level cache objects
Define and create inode-level cache data storage objects (as managed by
nfs_inode structs).

Each inode-level object is created in a superblock-level index object and is
itself a data storage object into which pages from the inode are stored.

The inode object key is the NFS file handle for the inode.

The inode object is given coherency data to carry in the auxiliary data
permitted by the cache.  This is a sequence made up of:

 (1) i_mtime from the NFS inode.

 (2) i_ctime from the NFS inode.

 (3) i_size from the NFS inode.

 (4) change_attr from the NFSv4 attribute data.

As the cache is a persistent cache, the auxiliary data is checked when a new
NFS in-memory inode is set up that matches an already existing data storage
object in the cache.  If the coherency data is the same, the on-disk object is
retained and used; if not, it is scrapped and a new one created.

David Howells 08734048b3 NFS: Define and create superblock-level objects
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.

David Howells 147272813e NFS: Define and create server-level objects
Define and create server-level cache index objects (as managed by nfs_client
structs).

Each server object is created in the NFS top-level index object and is itself
an index into which superblock-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 server object key is a sequence consisting of:

 (1) NFS version

 (2) Server address family (eg: AF_INET or AF_INET6)

 (3) Server port.

 (4) Server IP address.

The key blob is of variable length, depending on the length of (4).

The server object is given no coherency data to carry in the auxiliary data
permitted by the cache.

Nick Piggin c2ec175c39 mm: page_mkwrite change prototype to match fault
Change the page_mkwrite prototype to take a struct vm_fault, and return
VM_FAULT_xxx flags.  There should be no functional change.

This makes it possible to return much more detailed error information to
the VM (and also can provide more information eg.  virtual_address to the
driver, which might be important in some special cases).

This is required for a subsequent fix.  And will also make it easier to
merge page_mkwrite() with fault() in future.
