sometimes HPUX nfs client sends a create request to linux nfs server(v2/v3).
the dump of the request is like:
obj_attributes
mode: value follows
set_it: value follows (1)
mode: 00
uid: no value
set_it: no value (0)
gid: value follows
set_it: value follows (1)
gid: 8030
size: value follows
set_it: value follows (1)
size: 0
atime: don't change
set_it: don't change (0)
mtime: don't change
set_it: don't change (0)
note that mode is 00(havs no rwx privilege even for the owner) and it requires
to set size to 0.
as current nfsd(v2/v3) implementation, the server does mainly 2 steps:
1) creates the file in mode specified by calling vfs_create().
2) sets attributes for the file by calling nfsd_setattr().
at step 2), it finally calls file system specific setattr() function which may
fail when checking permission because changing size needs WRITE privilege but
it has none since mode is 000.
for this case, a new file created, we may simply ignore the request of
setting size to 0, so that WRITE privilege is not needed and the open
succeeds.

Traditionally, changes to struct file->f_flags have been done under BKL
protection, or with no protection at all. This patch causes all f_flags
changes after file open/creation time to be done under protection of
f_lock. This allows the removal of some BKL usage and fixes a number of

A number of nfsd operations depend on the i_mutex to cover more code
than just the fsync, so the approach of 4c728ef583 "add a vfs_fsync
helper" doesn't work for nfsd. Revert the parts of those patches that
touch nfsd.
Note: we can't, however, remove the logic from vfs_fsync that was needed
only for the special case of nfsd, because a vfs_fsync(NULL,...) call
can still result indirectly from a stackable filesystem that was called
by nfsd. (Thanks to Christoph Hellwig for pointing this out.)

Fsync currently has a fdatawrite/fdatawait pair around the method call,
and a mutex_lock/unlock of the inode mutex. All callers of fsync have
to duplicate this, but we have a few and most of them don't quite get
it right. This patch adds a new vfs_fsync that takes care of this.
It's a little more complicated as usual as ->fsync might get a NULL file
pointer and just a dentry from nfsd, but otherwise gets afile and we
want to take the mapping and file operations from it when it is there.
Notes on the fsync callers:
- ecryptfs wasn't calling filemap_fdatawrite / filemap_fdatawait on the
lower file
- coda wasn't calling filemap_fdatawrite / filemap_fdatawait on the host
file, and returning 0 when ->fsync was missing
- shm wasn't calling either filemap_fdatawrite / filemap_fdatawait nor
taking i_mutex. Now given that shared memory doesn't have disk
backing not doing anything in fsync seems fine and I left it out of
the vfs_fsync conversion for now, but in that case we might just
not pass it through to the lower file at all but just call the no-op
simple_sync_file directly.

Commit 8d7c4203 "nfsd: fix failure to set eof in readdir in some
situations" introduced a bug: on a directory in an exported ext3
filesystem with dir_index unset, a READDIR will only return about 250
entries, even if the directory was larger.
Bisected it back to this commit; reverting it fixes the problem.
It turns out that in this case ext3 reads a block at a time, then
returns from readdir, which means we can end up with buf.full==0 but
with more entries in the directory still to be read. Before 8d7c4203
(but after c002a6c797 "Optimise NFS readdir hack slightly"), this would
cause us to return the READDIR result immediately, but with the eof bit
unset. That could cause a performance regression (because the client
would need more roundtrips to the server to read the whole directory),
but no loss in correctness, since the cleared eof bit caused the client
to send another readdir. After 8d7c4203, the setting of the eof bit
made this a correctness problem.
So, move nfserr_eof into the loop and remove the buf.full check so that
we loop until buf.used==0. The following seems to do the right thing
and reduces the network traffic since we don't return a READDIR result
until the buffer is full.
Tested on an empty directory & large directory; eof is properly sent and
there are no more short buffers.

Before 14f7dd6320 "[PATCH] Copy XFS

c002a6c797 "[PATCH] Optimise NFS readdir

This ensures the "eof" bit is set when needed in readdir replies. (The
particular case I saw was an nfsv4 readdir of an empty directory, which
returned with no entries (the protocol requires "." and ".." to be
filtered out), but with eof unset.)

Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
Some file systems with their own internal locking have problems with the
way that nfsd calls the ->lookup() method from within a filldir function
called from their ->readdir() method. The recursion back into the file
system code can cause deadlock.
XFS has a fairly hackish solution to this which involves doing the
readdir() into a locally-allocated buffer, then going back through it
calling the filldir function afterwards. It's not ideal, but it works.
It's particularly suboptimal because XFS does this for local file
systems too, where it's completely unnecessary.
Copy this hack into the NFS code where it can be used only for NFS
export. In response to feedback, use it unconditionally rather than only
for the affected file systems.

I had a report from someone building a large NFS server that they were
unable to start more than 585 nfsd threads. It was reported against an
older kernel using the slab allocator, and I tracked it down to the
large allocation in nfsd_racache_init failing.
It appears that the slub allocator handles large allocations better,
but large contiguous allocations can often be problematic. There
doesn't seem to be any reason that the racache has to be allocated as a
single large chunk. This patch breaks this up so that the racache is
built up from separate allocations.

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.

Currently, knfsd only clears the setuid bit if the owner of a file is
changed on a SETATTR call, and only clears the setgid bit if the group
is changed. POSIX says this in the spec for chown():
"If the specified file is a regular file, one or more of the
S_IXUSR, S_IXGRP, or S_IXOTH bits of the file mode are set, and the
process does not have appropriate privileges, the set-user-ID
(S_ISUID) and set-group-ID (S_ISGID) bits of the file mode shall
be cleared upon successful return from chown()."
If I'm reading this correctly, then knfsd is doing this wrong. It should
be clearing both the setuid and setgid bit on any SETATTR that changes
the uid or gid. This wasn't really as noticable before, but now that the
ATTR_KILL_S*ID bits are a no-op for the NFS client, it's more evident.
This patch corrects the nfsd_setattr logic so that this occurs. It also
does a bit of cleanup to the function.
There is also one small behavioral change. If a SETATTR call comes in
that changes the uid/gid and the mode, then we now only clear the setgid
bit if the group execute bit isn't set. The setgid bit without a group
execute bit signifies mandatory locking and we likely don't want to
clear the bit in that case. Since there is no call in POSIX that should
generate a SETATTR call like this, then this should rarely happen, but
it's worth noting.

Based on the comment, this appears to have been done to prevent some

Perhaps we should remove that hack completely. For now, at least, it
makes sense to allow root (when no_root_squash is set) to set uid and
gid.
While we're there, since nfsd_create and nfsd_create_v3 share the same

Changelog:
Nov 27:
Incorporate fixes from Andrew Morton
(security-introduce-file-caps-tweaks and
security-introduce-file-caps-warning-fix)
Fix Kconfig dependency.
Fix change signaling behavior when file caps are not compiled in.
Nov 13:
Integrate comments from Alexey: Remove CONFIG_ ifdef from
capability.h, and use %zd for printing a size_t.
Nov 13:
Fix endianness warnings by sparse as suggested by Alexey
Dobriyan.
Nov 09:
Address warnings of unused variables at cap_bprm_set_security
when file capabilities are disabled, and simultaneously clean
up the code a little, by pulling the new code into a helper
function.
Nov 08:
For pointers to required userspace tools and how to use
them, see http://www.friedhoff.org/fscaps.html.
Nov 07:
Fix the calculation of the highest bit checked in
check_cap_sanity().
Nov 07:
Allow file caps to be enabled without CONFIG_SECURITY, since
capabilities are the default.
Hook cap_task_setscheduler when !CONFIG_SECURITY.
Move capable(TASK_KILL) to end of cap_task_kill to reduce
audit messages.
Nov 05:
Add secondary calls in selinux/hooks.c to task_setioprio and
task_setscheduler so that selinux and capabilities with file
cap support can be stacked.
Sep 05:
As Seth Arnold points out, uid checks are out of place
for capability code.
Sep 01:
Define task_setscheduler, task_setioprio, cap_task_kill, and
task_setnice to make sure a user cannot affect a process in which
they called a program with some fscaps.
One remaining question is the note under task_setscheduler: are we
ok with CAP_SYS_NICE being sufficient to confine a process to a
cpuset?
It is a semantic change, as without fsccaps, attach_task doesn't
allow CAP_SYS_NICE to override the uid equivalence check. But since
it uses security_task_setscheduler, which elsewhere is used where
CAP_SYS_NICE can be used to override the uid equivalence check,
fixing it might be tough.
task_setscheduler
note: this also controls cpuset:attach_task. Are we ok with
CAP_SYS_NICE being used to confine to a cpuset?
task_setioprio
task_setnice
sys_setpriority uses this (through set_one_prio) for another
process. Need same checks as setrlimit
Aug 21:
Updated secureexec implementation to reflect the fact that
euid and uid might be the same and nonzero, but the process
might still have elevated caps.
Aug 15:
Handle endianness of xattrs.
Enforce capability version match between kernel and disk.
Enforce that no bits beyond the known max capability are
set, else return -EPERM.
With this extra processing, it may be worth reconsidering
doing all the work at bprm_set_security rather than
d_instantiate.
Aug 10:
Always call getxattr at bprm_set_security, rather than
caching it at d_instantiate.

The value of nperbucket calculated here is too small--we should be rounding up
instead of down--with the result that the index j in the following loop can
overflow the raparm_hash array. At least in my case, the next thing in memory
turns out to be export_table, so the symptoms I see are crashes caused by the
appearance of four zeroed-out export entries in the first bucket of the hash
table of exports (which were actually entries in the readahead cache, a
pointer to which had been written to the export table in this initialization
code).
It looks like the bug was probably introduced with commit
fce1456a19 ("knfsd: make the readahead params
cache SMP-friendly").

Currently exp_find(), exp_get_by_name(), and friends, return an export on
success, and on failure return:
errors -EAGAIN (drop this request pending an upcall) or
-ETIMEDOUT (an upcall has timed out), or
return NULL, which can mean either that there was a memory allocation
failure, or that an export was not found, or that a passed-in
export lacks an auth_domain.
Many callers seem to assume that NULL means that an export was not found,
which may lead to bugs in the case of a memory allocation failure.
Modify these functions to distinguish between the two NULL cases by returning
either -ENOENT or -ENOMEM. They now never return NULL. We get to simplify
some code in the process.
We return -ENOENT in the case of a missing auth_domain. This case should
probably be removed (or converted to a bug) after confirming that it can never
happen.

nfs4_acl_nfsv4_to_posix() returns an error and returns any posix acls

Fix both the caller and the callee, by modifying nfsd4_set_nfs4_acl() to

nfsd defines a type 'encode_dent_fn' which is much like 'filldir_t' except
that the first pointer is 'struct readdir_cd *' rather than 'void *'. It
then casts encode_dent_fn points to 'filldir_t' as needed. This hides any
other type mismatches between the two such as the fact that the 'ino' arg
recently changed from ino_t to u64.
So: get rid of 'encode_dent_fn', get rid of the cast of the function type,
change the first arg of various functions from 'struct readdir_cd *' to
'void *', and live with the fact that we have a little less type checking
on the calling of these functions now. Less internal (to nfsd) checking
offset by more external checking, which is more important.

NFS V3 (and V4) support exclusive create by passing a 'cookie' which can get
stored with the file. If the file exists but has exactly the right cookie
stored, then we assume this is a retransmit and the exclusive create was
successful.
The cookie is 64bits and is traditionally stored in the mtime and atime
fields. This causes a problem with Solaris7 as negative mtime or atime
confuse it. So we moved two bits into the mode word instead.
But inherited ACLs sometimes overwrite the mode word on create, so this is a
problem.
So we give up and just store 62 of the 64 bits and assume that is close
enough.

NFSd assumes that largest number of pages that will be needed for a
request+response is 2+N where N pages is the size of the largest permitted
read/write request. The '2' are 1 for the non-data part of the request, and 1
for the non-data part of the reply.
However, when a read request is not page-aligned, and we choose to use
->sendfile to send it directly from the page cache, we may need N+1 pages to
hold the whole reply. This can overflow and array and cause an Oops.
This patch increases size of the array for holding pages by one and makes sure
that entry is NULL when it is not in use.

To avoid tying up server threads when nfsd makes an upcall (to mountd, to get
export options, to idmapd, for nfsv4 name<->id mapping, etc.), we temporarily
"drop" the request and save enough information so that we can revisit it
later.
Certain failures during the deferral process can cause us to really drop the
request and never revisit it.
This is often less than ideal, and is unacceptable in the NFSv4 case--rfc 3530
forbids the server from dropping a request without also closing the
connection.
As a first step, we modify the deferral code to return -ETIMEDOUT (which is
translated to nfserr_jukebox in the v3 and v4 cases, and remains a drop in the
v2 case).

Make the nfsd read-ahead params cache more SMP-friendly by changing the single
global list and lock into a fixed 16-bucket hashtable with per-bucket locks.
This reduces spinlock contention in nfsd_read() on read-heavy workloads on

Testing was on a 4 CPU 4 NIC Altix using 4 IRIX clients each doing 1K
streaming reads at full line rate. The server had 128 nfsd threads, which
sizes the RA cache at 256 entries, of which only a handful were used. Flat
profiling shows nfsd_read(), including the inlined nfsd_get_raparms(), taking
10.4% of each CPU. This patch drops the contribution from nfsd() to 1.71% for

The two arrays are for the pages holding the request, and the pages holding

first reply page is.
This patch also removes a number of small inline functions that probably
server to obscure what is going on rather than clarify it, and opencode the

We should be using the length from the second vfs_getxattr, in case it

know whether it's worth spending a lot of effort to fix that.)
This makes XFS ACLs usable on NFS exports, which they currently aren't, since
XFS appears to be returning a too-large value for vfs_getxattr() when it's
passed a NULL buffer. So there's probably an XFS bug here too, though since
getxattr with a NULL buffer is usually used to decide how much memory to

A typical nfsd call trace is
nfsd -> svc_process -> nfsd_dispatch -> nfsd3_proc_write ->
nfsd_write ->nfsd_vfs_write -> vfs_writev
These add up to over 300 bytes on the stack.
Looking at each of these, I see that nfsd_write (which includes

inotify is intended to correct the deficiencies of dnotify, particularly
its inability to scale and its terrible user interface:
* dnotify requires the opening of one fd per each directory
that you intend to watch. This quickly results in too many
open files and pins removable media, preventing unmount.
* dnotify is directory-based. You only learn about changes to
directories. Sure, a change to a file in a directory affects
the directory, but you are then forced to keep a cache of
stat structures.
* dnotify's interface to user-space is awful. Signals?
inotify provides a more usable, simple, powerful solution to file change
notification:
* inotify's interface is a system call that returns a fd, not SIGIO.
You get a single fd, which is select()-able.
* inotify has an event that says "the filesystem that the item
you were watching is on was unmounted."
* inotify can watch directories or files.
Inotify is currently used by Beagle (a desktop search infrastructure),
Gamin (a FAM replacement), and other projects.

This adds functions for encoding and decoding POSIX ACLs for the NFSACL
protocol extension, and the GETACL and SETACL RPCs. The implementation is
compatible with NFSACL in Solaris.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
