2008-09-01sunrpc: fix possible overrun on read of /proc/sys/sunrpc/transportsCyrill Gorcunov1-14/+4
Vegard Nossum reported ---------------------- > I noticed that something weird is going on with /proc/sys/sunrpc/transports. > This file is generated in net/sunrpc/sysctl.c, function proc_do_xprt().

David Wagner added (among other things) that copy_to_user could be probably used here. Ingo Oeser suggested to use simple_read_from_buffer() here. The conclusion is that proc_do_xprt doesn't check for userside buffer size indeed so fix this by using Ingo's suggestion.

2008-01-30SUNRPC: Restrict sunrpc client exportsTrond Myklebust1-4/+4
The sunrpc client exports are not meant to be part of any official kernel API: they can change at the drop of a hat. Mark them as internal functions using EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

Commit baa3a2a0d24ebcf1c451bec8e5bee3d3467f4cbb ("sysctl: remove broken sunrpc debug binary sysctls"), by removing initialization of the ctl_name field, broke this conditional, preventing the display of rpc_tasks that you previously got when turning on rpc debugging.

2007-10-18sysctl: remove broken sunrpc debug binary sysctlsEric W. Biederman1-4/+0
This is debug code so no need to support binary sysctl, and the binary sysctls as they were written were not consistent with what showed up in /proc so remove the binary sysctl support.

2007-02-14[PATCH] sysctl: remove insert_at_head from register_sysctlEric W. Biederman1-1/+1
The semantic effect of insert_at_head is that it would allow new registered sysctl entries to override existing sysctl entries of the same name. Which is pain for caching and the proc interface never implemented. I have done an audit and discovered that none of the current users of register_sysctl care as (excpet for directories) they do not register duplicate sysctl entries. So this patch simply removes the support for overriding existing entries in the sys_sysctl interface since no one uses it or cares and it makes future enhancments harder. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2005-09-23[PATCH] RPC: allow RPC client's port range to be adjustableChuck Lever1-0/+29
Select an RPC client source port between 650 and 1023 instead of between 1 and 800. The old range conflicts with a number of network services. Provide sysctls to allow admins to select a different port range. Note that this doesn't affect user-level RPC library behavior, which still uses 1 to 800. Based on a suggestion by Olaf Kirch <okir@suse.de>. Test-plan: Repeated mount and unmount. Destructive testing. Idle timeouts.

2005-09-23[PATCH] RPC: introduce client-side transport switchChuck Lever1-0/+3
Move the bulk of client-side socket-specific code into a separate source file, net/sunrpc/xprtsock.c. Test-plan: Millions of fsx operations. Performance characterization such as "sio" or "iozone". Destructive testing (unplugging the network temporarily, server reboots). Connectathon with v2, v3, and v4.

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds1-0/+193
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!
