2014-06-24NFSv4: test SECINFO RPC_AUTH_GSS pseudoflavors for supportAndy Adamson1-43/+55
Fix nfs4_negotiate_security to create an rpc_clnt used to test each SECINFO returned pseudoflavor. Check credential creation (and gss_context creation) which is important for RPC_AUTH_GSS pseudoflavors which can fail for multiple reasons including mis-configuration. Don't call nfs4_negotiate in nfs4_submount as it was just called by nfs4_proc_lookup_mountpoint (nfs4_proc_lookup_common) Signed-off-by: Andy Adamson <andros@netapp.com> [Trond: fix corrupt return value from nfs_find_best_sec()] Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@primarydata.com>

Without this patch, a mount with no sec= option to a server that does not include RPC_AUTH_UNIX in the SECINFO return can be presented with an attemtp to use RPC_AUTH_UNIX which will result in an NFS4ERR_WRONG_SEC which will prompt the SECINFO call which will again try RPC_AUTH_UNIX....

2013-10-28NFS: add support for multiple sec= mount optionsWeston Andros Adamson1-4/+13
This patch adds support for multiple security options which can be specified using a colon-delimited list of security flavors (the same syntax as nfsd's exports file). This is useful, for instance, when NFSv4.x mounts cross SECINFO boundaries. With this patch a user can use "sec=krb5i,krb5p" to mount a remote filesystem using krb5i, but can still cross into krb5p-only exports. New mounts will try all security options before failing. NFSv4.x SECINFO results will be compared against the sec= flavors to find the first flavor in both lists or if no match is found will return -EPERM.

2013-03-29SUNRPC: Introduce rpcauth_get_pseudoflavor()Chuck Lever1-18/+23
A SECINFO reply may contain flavors whose kernel module is not yet loaded by the client's kernel. A new RPC client API, called rpcauth_get_pseudoflavor(), is introduced to do proper checking for support of a security flavor. When this API is invoked, the RPC client now tries to load the module for each flavor first before performing the "is this supported?" check. This means if a module is available on the client, but has not been loaded yet, it will be loaded and registered automatically when the SECINFO reply is processed. The new API can take a full GSS tuple (OID, QoP, and service). Previously only the OID and service were considered. nfs_find_best_sec() is updated to verify all flavors requested in a SECINFO reply, including AUTH_NULL and AUTH_UNIX. Previously these two flavors were simply assumed to be supported without consulting the RPC client. Note that the replaced version of nfs_find_best_sec() can return RPC_AUTH_MAXFLAVOR if the server returns a recognized OID but an unsupported "service" value. nfs_find_best_sec() now returns RPC_AUTH_UNIX in this case.

2013-03-29SUNRPC: Define rpcsec_gss_info structureChuck Lever1-6/+6
The NFSv4 SECINFO procedure returns a list of security flavors. Any GSS flavor also has a GSS tuple containing an OID, a quality-of- protection value, and a service value, which specifies a particular GSS pseudoflavor. For simplicity and efficiency, I'd like to return each GSS tuple from the NFSv4 SECINFO XDR decoder and pass it straight into the RPC client. Define a data structure that is visible to both the NFS client and the RPC client. Take structure and field names from the relevant standards to avoid confusion.

Since commit c7f404b ('vfs: new superblock methods to override /proc/*/mount{s,info}'), nfs_path() is used to generate the mounted device name reported back to userland. nfs_path() always generates a trailing slash when the given dentry is the root of an NFS mount, but userland may expect the original device name to be returned verbatim (as it used to be). Make this canonicalisation optional and change the callers accordingly.

2012-10-01SUNRPC: Introduce rpc_clone_client_set_auth()Chuck Lever1-13/+1
An ULP is supposed to be able to replace a GSS rpc_auth object with another GSS rpc_auth object using rpcauth_create(). However, rpcauth_create() in 3.5 reliably fails with -EEXIST in this case. This is because when gss_create() attempts to create the upcall pipes, sometimes they are already there. For example if a pipe FS mount event occurs, or a previous GSS flavor was in use for this rpc_clnt. It turns out that's not the only problem here. While working on a fix for the above problem, we noticed that replacing an rpc_clnt's rpc_auth is not safe, since dereferencing the cl_auth field is not protected in any way. So we're deprecating the ability of rpcauth_create() to switch an rpc_clnt's security flavor during normal operation. Instead, let's add a fresh API that clones an rpc_clnt and gives the clone a new flavor before it's used. This makes immediate use of the new __rpc_clone_client() helper. This can be used in a similar fashion to rpcauth_create() when a client is hunting for the correct security flavor. Instead of replacing an rpc_clnt's security flavor in a loop, the ULP replaces the whole rpc_clnt. To fix the -EEXIST problem, any ULP logic that relies on replacing an rpc_clnt's rpc_auth with rpcauth_create() must be changed to use this API instead.

2012-09-25NFS4: avoid underflow when converting error to pointer.NeilBrown1-1/+1
In nfs4_create_sec_client, 'flavor' can hold a negative error code (returned from nfs4_negotiate_security), even though it is an 'enum' and hence unsigned. The code is careful to cast it to an (int) before testing if it is negative, however it doesn't cast to an (int) before calling ERR_PTR. On a machine where "void*" is larger than "int", this results in the unsigned equivalent of -1 (e.g. 0xffffffff) being converted to a pointer. Subsequent code determines that this is not negative, and so dereferences it with predictable results. So: cast 'flavor' to a (signed) int before passing to ERR_PTR. cc: Benny Halevy <bhalevy@tonian.com> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

Pointer to network dns resolver cache is stored in new per-net "nfs_net" structure. This patch also changes nfs_dns_resolve_name() function prototype (and it's calls) by adding network pointer parameter, which is used to get proper DNS resolver cache pointer for do_cache_lookup_wait() call.

2010-03-30include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.hTejun Heo1-0/+1
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

2006-09-22NFS: Share NFS superblocks per-protocol per-server per-FSIDDavid Howells1-25/+85
The attached patch makes NFS share superblocks between mounts from the same server and FSID over the same protocol. It does this by creating each superblock with a false root and returning the real root dentry in the vfsmount presented by get_sb(). The root dentry set starts off as an anonymous dentry if we don't already have the dentry for its inode, otherwise it simply returns the dentry we already have. We may thus end up with several trees of dentries in the superblock, and if at some later point one of anonymous tree roots is discovered by normal filesystem activity to be located in another tree within the superblock, the anonymous root is named and materialises attached to the second tree at the appropriate point. Why do it this way? Why not pass an extra argument to the mount() syscall to indicate the subpath and then pathwalk from the server root to the desired directory? You can't guarantee this will work for two reasons: (1) The root and intervening nodes may not be accessible to the client. With NFS2 and NFS3, for instance, mountd is called on the server to get the filehandle for the tip of a path. mountd won't give us handles for anything we don't have permission to access, and so we can't set up NFS inodes for such nodes, and so can't easily set up dentries (we'd have to have ghost inodes or something). With this patch we don't actually create dentries until we get handles from the server that we can use to set up their inodes, and we don't actually bind them into the tree until we know for sure where they go. (2) Inaccessible symbolic links. If we're asked to mount two exports from the server, eg: mount warthog:/warthog/aaa/xxx /mmm mount warthog:/warthog/bbb/yyy /nnn We may not be able to access anything nearer the root than xxx and yyy, but we may find out later that /mmm/www/yyy, say, is actually the same directory as the one mounted on /nnn. What we might then find out, for example, is that /warthog/bbb was actually a symbolic link to /warthog/aaa/xxx/www, but we can't actually determine that by talking to the server until /warthog is made available by NFS. This would lead to having constructed an errneous dentry tree which we can't easily fix. We can end up with a dentry marked as a directory when it should actually be a symlink, or we could end up with an apparently hardlinked directory. With this patch we need not make assumptions about the type of a dentry for which we can't retrieve information, nor need we assume we know its place in the grand scheme of things until we actually see that place. This patch reduces the possibility of aliasing in the inode and page caches for inodes that may be accessed by more than one NFS export. It also reduces the number of superblocks required for NFS where there are many NFS exports being used from a server (home directory server + autofs for example). This in turn makes it simpler to do local caching of network filesystems, as it can then be guaranteed that there won't be links from multiple inodes in separate superblocks to the same cache file. Obviously, cache aliasing between different levels of NFS protocol could still be a problem, but at least that gives us another key to use when indexing the cache. This patch makes the following changes: (1) The server record construction/destruction has been abstracted out into its own set of functions to make things easier to get right. These have been moved into fs/nfs/client.c. All the code in fs/nfs/client.c has to do with the management of connections to servers, and doesn't touch superblocks in any way; the remaining code in fs/nfs/super.c has to do with VFS superblock management. (2) The sequence of events undertaken by NFS mount is now reordered: (a) A volume representation (struct nfs_server) is allocated. (b) A server representation (struct nfs_client) is acquired. This may be allocated or shared, and is keyed on server address, port and NFS version. (c) If allocated, the client representation is initialised. The state member variable of nfs_client is used to prevent a race during initialisation from two mounts. (d) For NFS4 a simple pathwalk is performed, walking from FH to FH to find the root filehandle for the mount (fs/nfs/getroot.c). For NFS2/3 we are given the root FH in advance. (e) The volume FSID is probed for on the root FH. (f) The volume representation is initialised from the FSINFO record retrieved on the root FH. (g) sget() is called to acquire a superblock. This may be allocated or shared, keyed on client pointer and FSID. (h) If allocated, the superblock is initialised. (i) If the superblock is shared, then the new nfs_server record is discarded. (j) The root dentry for this mount is looked up from the root FH. (k) The root dentry for this mount is assigned to the vfsmount. (3) nfs_readdir_lookup() creates dentries for each of the entries readdir() returns; this function now attaches disconnected trees from alternate roots that happen to be discovered attached to a directory being read (in the same way nfs_lookup() is made to do for lookup ops). The new d_materialise_unique() function is now used to do this, thus permitting the whole thing to be done under one set of locks, and thus avoiding any race between mount and lookup operations on the same directory. (4) The client management code uses a new debug facility: NFSDBG_CLIENT which is set by echoing 1024 to /proc/net/sunrpc/nfs_debug. (5) Clone mounts are now called xdev mounts. (6) Use the dentry passed to the statfs() op as the handle for retrieving fs statistics rather than the root dentry of the superblock (which is now a dummy).
