Currently, the knfsd server assumes that a short read indicates an
end of file. That assumption is incorrect. The short read means that
either we've hit the end of file, or we've hit a read error.
In the case of a read error, the client may want to retry (as per the
implementation recommendations in RFC1813 and RFC7530), but currently it
is being told that it hit an eof.
Move the code to detect eof from version specific code into the generic
nfsd read.
Report eof only in the two following cases:
1) read() returns a zero length short read with no error.
2) the offset+length of the read is >= the file size.

I've given up on the idea of zero-copy handling of SYMLINK on the
server side. This is because the Linux VFS symlink API requires the
symlink pathname to be in a NUL-terminated kmalloc'd buffer. The
NUL-termination is going to be problematic (watching out for
landing on a page boundary and dealing with a 4096-byte pathname).
I don't believe that SYMLINK creation is on a performance path or is
requested frequently enough that it will cause noticeable CPU cache
pollution due to data copies.
There will be two places where a transport callout will be necessary
to fill in the rqstp: one will be in the svc_fill_symlink_pathname()
helper that is used by NFSv2 and NFSv3, and the other will be in
nfsd4_decode_create().

fill_in_write_vector() is nearly the same logic as
svc_fill_write_vector(), but there are a few differences so that
the former can handle multiple WRITE payloads in a single COMPOUND.
svc_fill_write_vector() can be adjusted so that it can be used in
the NFSv4 WRITE code path too. Instead of assuming the pages are
coming from rq_args.pages, have the caller pass in the page list.
The immediate benefit is a reduction of code duplication. It also
prevents the NFSv4 WRITE decoder from passing an empty vector
element when the transport has provided the payload in the xdr_buf's
page array.

Move common code in NFSD's legacy SYMLINK decoders into a helper.
The immediate benefits include:
- one fewer data copies on transports that support DDP
- consistent error checking across all versions
- reduction of code duplication
- support for both legal forms of SYMLINK requests on RDMA
transports for all versions of NFS (in particular, NFSv2, for
completeness)
In the long term, this helper is an appropriate spot to perform a
per-transport call-out to fill the pathname argument using, say,
RDMA Reads.
Filling the pathname in the proc function also means that eventually
the incoming filehandle can be interpreted so that filesystem-
specific memory can be allocated as a sink for the pathname
argument, rather than using anonymous pages.

Move common code in NFSD's legacy NFS WRITE decoders into a helper.
The immediate benefit is reduction of code duplication and some nice
micro-optimizations (see below).
In the long term, this helper can perform a per-transport call-out
to fill the rq_vec (say, using RDMA Reads).
The legacy WRITE decoders and procs are changed to work like NFSv4,
which constructs the rq_vec just before it is about to call
vfs_writev.
Why? Calling a transport call-out from the proc instead of the XDR
decoder means that the incoming FH can be resolved to a particular
filesystem and file. This would allow pages from the backing file to
be presented to the transport to be filled, rather than presenting
anonymous pages and copying or flipping them into the file's page
cache later.
I also prefer using the pages in rq_arg.pages, instead of pulling
the data pages directly out of the rqstp::rq_pages array. This is
currently the way the NFSv3 write decoder works, but the other two
do not seem to take this approach. Fixing this removes the only
reference to rq_pages found in NFSD, eliminating an NFSD assumption
about how transports use the pages in rq_pages.
Lastly, avoid setting up the first element of rq_vec as a zero-
length buffer. This happens with an RDMA transport when a normal
Read chunk is present because the data payload is in rq_arg's
page list (none of it is in the head buffer).

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

NFSv2 can set the atime and/or mtime of a file to specific timestamps but not
to the server's current time. To implement the equivalent of utimes("file",
NULL), it uses a heuristic.
NFSv3 and later do support setting the atime and/or mtime to the server's
current time directly. The NFSv2 heuristic is still enabled, and causes
timestamps to be set wrong sometimes.
Fix this by moving the heuristic into the NFSv2 specific code. We can leave it
out of the create code path: the owner can always set timestamps arbitrarily,
and the workaround would never trigger.

Currently nfsd_symlink has a weird hack to serve callers who don't
null-terminate symlink data: it looks ahead at the next byte to see if
it's zero, and copies it to a new buffer to null-terminate if not.
That means callers don't have to null-terminate, but they *do* have to
ensure that the byte following the end of the data is theirs to read.
That's a bit subtle, and the NFSv4 code actually got this wrong.
So let's just throw out that code and let callers pass null-terminated
strings; we've already fixed them to do that.

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.

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.

OCFS2 can return -ERESTARTSYS from write requests (and possibly
elsewhere) if there is a signal pending.
If nfsd is shutdown (by sending a signal to each thread) while there
is still an IO load from the client, each thread could handle one last
request with a signal pending. This can result in -ERESTARTSYS
which is not understood by nfserrno() and so is reflected back to
the client as nfserr_io aka -EIO. This is wrong.
Instead, interpret ERESTARTSYS to mean "try again later" by returning
nfserr_jukebox. The client will resend and - if the server is
restarted - the write will (hopefully) be successful and everyone will
be happy.
The symptom that I narrowed down to this was:
copy a large file via NFS to an OCFS2 filesystem, and restart
the nfs server during the copy.
The 'cp' might get an -EIO, and the file will be corrupted -
presumably holes in the middle where writes appeared to fail.

Allow readonly access to vary depending on the pseudoflavor, using the flag
passed with each pseudoflavor in the export downcall. The rest of the flags
are ignored for now, though some day we might also allow id squashing to vary
based on the flavor.
