2009-07-21NFSv4: Fix a problem whereby a buggy server can oops the kernelTrond Myklebust1-1/+1
We just had a case in which a buggy server occasionally returns the wrong attributes during an OPEN call. While the client does catch this sort of condition in nfs4_open_done(), and causes the nfs4_atomic_open() to return -EISDIR, the logic in nfs_atomic_lookup() is broken, since it causes a fallback to an ordinary lookup instead of just returning the error. When the buggy server then returns a regular file for the fallback lookup, the VFS allows the open, and bad things start to happen, since the open file doesn't have any associated NFSv4 state. The fix is firstly to return the EISDIR/ENOTDIR errors immediately, and secondly to ensure that we are always careful when dereferencing the nfs_open_context state pointer.

2009-05-18nfs: Fix NFS v4 client handling of MAY_EXEC in nfs_permission.Frank Filz1-1/+2
The problem is that permission checking is skipped if atomic open is possible, but when exec opens a file, it just opens it O_READONLY which means EXEC permission will not be checked at that time. This problem is observed by the following sequence (executed as root): mount -t nfs4 server:/ /mnt4 echo "ls" >/mnt4/foo chmod 744 /mnt4/foo su guest -c "mnt4/foo" Signed-off-by: Frank Filz <ffilzlnx@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com> Cc: stable@kernel.org Tested-by: Eugene Teo <eugeneteo@kernel.sg> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2009-03-10NFS: Handle -ESTALE error in access()Suresh Jayaraman1-1/+7
Hi Trond, I have been looking at a bugreport where trying to open applications on KDE on a NFS mounted home fails temporarily. There have been multiple reports on different kernel versions pointing to this common issue: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12557 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/269954 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=508866.html This issue can be reproducible consistently by doing this on a NFS mounted home (KDE): 1. Open 2 xterm sessions 2. From one of the xterm session, do "ssh -X <remote host>" 3. "stat ~/.Xauthority" on the remote SSH session 4. Close the two xterm sessions 5. On the server do a "stat ~/.Xauthority" 6. Now on the client, try to open xterm This will fail. Even if the filehandle had become stale, the NFS client should invalidate the cache/inode and should repeat LOOKUP. Looking at the packet capture when the failure occurs shows that there were two subsequent ACCESS() calls with the same filehandle and both fails with -ESTALE error. I have tested the fix below. Now the client issue a LOOKUP after the ACCESS() call fails with -ESTALE. If all this makes sense to you, can you consider this for inclusion? Thanks, If the server returns an -ESTALE error due to stale filehandle in response to an ACCESS() call, we need to invalidate the cache and inode so that LOOKUP() can be retried. Without this change, the nfs client retries ACCESS() with the same filehandle, fails again and could lead to temporary failure of applications running on nfs mounted home.

2008-12-23optimize attribute timeouts for "noac" and "actimeo=0"Peter Staubach1-1/+1
Hi. I've been looking at a bugzilla which describes a problem where a customer was advised to use either the "noac" or "actimeo=0" mount options to solve a consistency problem that they were seeing in the file attributes. It turned out that this solution did not work reliably for them because sometimes, the local attribute cache was believed to be valid and not timed out. (With an attribute cache timeout of 0, the cache should always appear to be timed out.) In looking at this situation, it appears to me that the problem is that the attribute cache timeout code has an off-by-one error in it. It is assuming that the cache is valid in the region, [read_cache_jiffies, read_cache_jiffies + attrtimeo]. The cache should be considered valid only in the region, [read_cache_jiffies, read_cache_jiffies + attrtimeo). With this change, the options, "noac" and "actimeo=0", work as originally expected. This problem was previously addressed by special casing the attrtimeo == 0 case. However, since the problem is only an off- by-one error, the cleaner solution is address the off-by-one error and thus, not require the special case.

2008-10-23[PATCH] move executable checking into ->permission()Miklos Szeredi1-0/+3
For execute permission on a regular files we need to check if file has any execute bits at all, regardless of capabilites. This check is normally performed by generic_permission() but was also added to the case when the filesystem defines its own ->permission() method. In the latter case the filesystem should be responsible for performing this check. Move the check from inode_permission() inside filesystems which are not calling generic_permission(). Create a helper function execute_ok() that returns true if the inode is a directory or if any execute bits are present in i_mode. Also fix up the following code: - coda control file is never executable - sysctl files are never executable - hfs_permission seems broken on MAY_EXEC, remove - hfsplus_permission is eqivalent to generic_permission(), remove Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz>

2008-10-20vmscan: split LRU lists into anon & file setsRik van Riel1-1/+1
Split the LRU lists in two, one set for pages that are backed by real file systems ("file") and one for pages that are backed by memory and swap ("anon"). The latter includes tmpfs. The advantage of doing this is that the VM will not have to scan over lots of anonymous pages (which we generally do not want to swap out), just to find the page cache pages that it should evict. This patch has the infrastructure and a basic policy to balance how much we scan the anon lists and how much we scan the file lists. The big policy changes are in separate patches.

2008-10-14NFS: Fix a resolution problem with nfs_inode->cache_change_attributeTrond Myklebust1-1/+1
The cache_change_attribute is used to decide whether or not a directory has changed, in which case we may need to look it up again. Again, the use of 'jiffies' leads to an issue of resolution. Once again, the fix is to change nfs_inode->cache_change_attribute, and just make it a simple counter. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2008-10-14NFS: Fix the resolution problem with nfs_inode_attrs_need_update()Trond Myklebust1-4/+10
It appears that 'jiffies' timestamps do not have high enough resolution for nfs_inode_attrs_need_update(). One problem is that a GETATTR can be launched within < 1 jiffy of the last operation that updated the attribute. Another problem is that RPC calls can take < 1 jiffy to execute. We can fix this by switching the variables to use a simple global counter that gets incremented every time we start another GETATTR call. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2008-10-07NFS: Add options for finer control of the lookup cacheTrond Myklebust1-0/+4

All dentry-related operations are already BKL-safe, since they are protected by the VFS locking. No extra locks should be needed in the NFS code. In the case of nfs_revalidate_inode(), we're only doing an attribute update (protected by the inode->i_lock). In the case of nfs_lookup(), we're instantiating a new dentry, so there should be no contention possible until after we call d_materialise_unique.

2008-07-08NFS: Fix readdir cache invalidationTrond Myklebust1-1/+1
invalidate_inode_pages2_range() takes page offset arguments, not byte ranges. Another thought is that individual pages might perhaps get evicted by VM pressure, in which case we might perhaps want to re-read not only the evicted page, but all subsequent pages too (in case the server returns more/less data per page so that the alignment of the next entry changes). We should therefore remove the condition that we only do this on page->index==0. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

2008-04-19[PATCH] r/o bind mounts: check mnt instead of superblock directlyDave Hansen1-1/+2
If we depend on the inodes for writeability, we will not catch the r/o mounts when implemented. This patches uses __mnt_want_write(). It does not guarantee that the mount will stay writeable after the check. But, this is OK for one of the checks because it is just for a printk(). The other two are probably unnecessary and duplicate existing checks in the VFS. This won't make them better checks than before, but it will make them detect r/o mounts.

2008-03-14SUNRPC: Add a helper rpcauth_lookup_generic_cred()Trond Myklebust1-1/+1
The NFSv4 protocol allows clients to negotiate security protocols on the fly in the case where an administrator on the server changes the export settings and/or in the case where we may have a filesystem migration event. Instead of having the NFS client code cache credentials that are tied to a particular AUTH method it is therefore preferable to have a generic credential that can be converted into whatever AUTH is in use by the RPC client when the read/write/sillyrename/... is put on the wire. We do this by means of the new "generic" credential, which basically just caches the minimal information that is needed to look up an RPCSEC_GSS, AUTH_SYS, or AUTH_NULL credential.
