NFSv4 requires us to ensure that we break the TCP connection before we're allowed to retransmit a request. However in the case where we're retransmitting several requests that have been sent on the same connection, we need to ensure that we don't interfere with the attempt to reconnect and/or break the connection again once it has been established. We therefore introduce a 'connection' cookie that is bumped every time a connection is broken. This allows requests to track if they need to force a disconnection.

The condition for exiting from the loop in xs_tcp_send_request() should be that we find we're not making progress (i.e. number of bytes sent is 0). Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

We need to try to ensure that we always use the same credentials whenever we re-establish the clientid on the server. If not, the server won't recognise that we're the same client, and so may not allow us to recover state. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

With the recent change to generic creds, we can no longer use cred->cr_ops->cr_name to distinguish between RPCSEC_GSS principals and AUTH_SYS/AUTH_NULL identities. Replace it with the rpc_authops->au_name instead... Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

Benny points out that zero-padding of multiword bitfields is necessary, and that delimiting each word is nice to avoid endianess confusion. bhalevy: without zero padding output can be ambiguous. Also, since the printed array of two 32-bit unsigned integers is not a 64-bit number, delimiting the output with a semicolon makes more sense.

All use sites for nfs{,4}_stat_to_errno negate their return value. It's more efficient to return a negative error from the stat_to_errno convertors rather than negating its return value everywhere.

Now that we've added the 'generic' credentials (that are independent of the rpc_client) to the nfs_open_context, we can use those in the NLM client to ensure that the lock/unlock requests are authenticated to whoever originally opened the file.

We shouldn't remove the lock from the list of blocked locks until the CANCEL call has completed since we may be racing with a GRANTED callback. Also ensure that we send an UNLOCK if the CANCEL request failed. Normally that should only happen if the process gets hit with a fatal signal.

The following patch converts the NFSv2/v3 locking code to use the same mechanism as NFSv4 for sending asynchronous RPC calls and then waiting for them to complete. This ensures that the UNLOCK and CANCEL RPC calls will complete even if the user interrupts the call, yet satisfies the above request for synchronous behaviour on process exit.

We want to ensure that req->rq_private_buf.len is updated before req->rq_received, so that call_decode() doesn't use an old value for req->rq_rcv_buf.len. In 'call_decode()' itself, instead of using task->tk_status (which is set using req->rq_received) must use the actual value of req->rq_private_buf.len when deciding whether or not the received RPC reply is too short. Finally ensure that we set req->rq_rcv_buf.len to zero when retrying a request. A typo meant that we were resetting req->rq_private_buf.len in call_decode(), and then clobbering that value with the old rq_rcv_buf.len again in xprt_transmit().

It is quite possible that the OPEN, CLOSE, LOCK, LOCKU,... compounds fail before the actual stateful operation has been executed (for instance in the PUTFH call). There is no way to tell from the overall status result which operations were executed from the COMPOUND. The fix is to move incrementing of the sequence id into the XDR layer, so that we do it as we process the results from the stateful operation.

There should be no need to invalidate a perfectly good state owner just because of a stale filehandle. Doing so can cause the state recovery code to break, since nfs4_get_renew_cred() and nfs4_get_setclientid_cred() rely on finding active state owners.

It is possible for nfs_wb_page() to sometimes exit with 0 return value, yet the page is left in a dirty state. For instance in the case where the server rebooted, and the COMMIT request failed, then all the previously "clean" pages which were cached by the server, but were not guaranteed to have been writted out to disk, have to be redirtied and resent to the server. The fix is to have nfs_wb_page_priority() check that the page is clean before it exits... This fixes a condition that triggers the BUG_ON(PagePrivate(page)) in nfs_create_request() when we're in the nfs_readpage() path. Also eliminate a redundant BUG_ON(!PageLocked(page)) while we're at it. It turns out that clear_page_dirty_for_io() has the exact same test.

..and always destroy using a 'soft' RPC call. Destroying GSS credentials isn't mandatory; the server can always cope with a few credentials not getting destroyed in a timely fashion. This actually fixes a hang situation. Basically, some servers will decide that the client is crazy if it tries to destroy an RPC context for which they have sent an RPCSEC_GSS_CREDPROBLEM, and so will refuse to talk to it for a while. The regression therefor probably was introduced by commit 0df7fb74. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

The rest of the networking layer uses SOCK_ASYNC_NOSPACE to signal whether or not we have someone waiting for buffer memory. Convert the SUNRPC layer to use the same idiom. Remove the unlikely()s in xs_udp_write_space and xs_tcp_write_space. In fact, the most common case will be that there is nobody waiting for buffer space. SOCK_NOSPACE is there to tell the TCP layer whether or not the cwnd was limited by the application window. Ensure that we follow the same idiom as the rest of the networking layer here too. Finally, ensure that we clear SOCK_ASYNC_NOSPACE once we wake up, so that write_space() doesn't keep waking things up on xprt->pending. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

Bruce Fields says: "By the way, we've got another config-related nit here: http://bugzilla.linux-nfs.org/show_bug.cgi?id=156 You can build lockd without CONFIG_SYSCTL set, but then the module will fail to load." For now, disable the sysctl registration calls in lockd if CONFIG_SYSCTL is not enabled. This allows the kernel to build properly if PROC_FS or SYSCTL is not enabled, but an NFS client is desired. In the long run, we would like to be able to build the kernel with an NFS client but without lockd. This makes sense, for example, if you want an NFSv4-only NFS client, as NFSv4 doesn't use NLM at all.
