2015-03-31sunrpc: make debugfs file creation failure non-fatalJeff Layton1-6/+1
We currently have a problem that SELinux policy is being enforced when creating debugfs files. If a debugfs file is created as a side effect of doing some syscall, then that creation can fail if the SELinux policy for that process prevents it. This seems wrong. We don't do that for files under /proc, for instance, so Bruce has proposed a patch to fix that. While discussing that patch however, Greg K.H. stated: "No kernel code should care / fail if a debugfs function fails, so please fix up the sunrpc code first." This patch converts all of the sunrpc debugfs setup code to be void return functins, and the callers to not look for errors from those functions. This should allow rpc_clnt and rpc_xprt creation to work, even if the kernel fails to create debugfs files for some reason. Symptoms were failing krb5 mounts on systems using gss-proxy and selinux. Fixes: 388f0c776781 "sunrpc: add a debugfs rpc_xprt directory..."

2014-11-27sunrpc: add debugfs file for displaying client rpc_task queueJeff Layton1-0/+8
It's possible to get a dump of the RPC task queue by writing a value to /proc/sys/sunrpc/rpc_debug. If you write any value to that file, you get a dump of the RPC client task list into the log buffer. This is a rather inconvenient interface however, and makes it hard to get immediate info about the task queue. Add a new directory hierarchy under debugfs: sunrpc/ rpc_clnt/ <clientid>/ Within each clientid directory we create a new "tasks" file that will dump info similar to what shows up in the log buffer, but with a few small differences -- we avoid printing raw kernel addresses in favor of symbolic names and the XID is also displayed.

2013-12-06sunrpc: create a new dummy pipe for gssd to hold openJeff Layton1-1/+7
rpc.gssd will naturally hold open any pipe named */clnt*/gssd that shows up under rpc_pipefs. That behavior gives us a reliable mechanism to tell whether it's actually running or not. Create a new toplevel "gssd" directory in rpc_pipefs when it's mounted. Under that directory create another directory called "clntXX", and then within that a pipe called "gssd". We'll never send an upcall along that pipe, and any downcall written to it will just return -EINVAL.

2012-01-31SUNRPC: make SUNPRC clients list per network namespace contextStanislav Kinsbursky1-0/+3
This patch moves static SUNRPC clients list and it's lock to sunrpc_net structure. Currently this list is used only for debug purposes. But later it will be used also for selecting clients by networks namespace on PipeFS mount/umount events. Per-network namespace lists will make this faster and simplier. Note: client list is taken from "init_net" network namespace context in rpc_show_tasks(). This will be changed some day later with making SUNRPC sysctl's per network namespace context.

During per-net pipes creation and destruction we have to make sure, that pipefs sb exists for the whole creation/destruction cycle. This is done by using special mutex which controls pipefs sb reference on network namespace context. Helper consists of two parts: first of them (rpc_get_dentry_net) searches for dentry with specified name and returns with mutex taken on success. When pipe creation or destructions is completed, caller should release this mutex by rpc_put_dentry_net call.

2010-07-06sunrpc: make the cache cleaner workqueue deferrableArtem Bityutskiy1-0/+1
This patch makes the cache_cleaner workqueue deferrable, to prevent unnecessary system wake-ups, which is very important for embedded battery-powered devices. do_cache_clean() is called every 30 seconds at the moment, and often makes the system wake up from its power-save sleep state. With this change, when the workqueue uses a deferrable timer, the do_cache_clean() invocation will be delayed and combined with the closest "real" wake-up. This improves the power consumption situation. Note, I tried to create a DECLARE_DELAYED_WORK_DEFERRABLE() helper macro, similar to DECLARE_DELAYED_WORK(), but failed because of the way the timer wheel core stores the deferrable flag (it is the LSBit in the time->base pointer). My attempt to define a static variable with this bit set ended up with the "initializer element is not constant" error. Thus, I have to use run-time initialization, so I created a new cache_initialize() function which is called once when sunrpc is being initialized.

2009-12-03SUNRPC: Use a cached RPC client and transport for rpcbind upcallsChuck Lever1-0/+3
The kernel's rpcbind client creates and deletes an rpc_clnt and its underlying transport socket for every upcall to the local rpcbind daemon. When starting a typical NFS server on IPv4 and IPv6, the NFS service itself does three upcalls (one per version) times two upcalls (one per transport) times two upcalls (one per address family), making 12, plus another one for the initial call to unregister previous NFS services. Starting the NLM service adds an additional 13 upcalls, for similar reasons. (Currently the NFS service doesn't start IPv6 listeners, but it will soon enough). Instead, let's create an rpc_clnt for rpcbind upcalls during the first local rpcbind query, and cache it. This saves the overhead of creating and destroying an rpc_clnt and a socket for every upcall. The new logic also prevents the kernel from attempting an RPCB_SET or RPCB_UNSET if it knows from the start that the local portmapper does not support rpcbind protocol version 4. This will cut down on the number of rpcbind upcalls in legacy environments. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com>

2007-02-14[PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.hTim Schmielau1-1/+0
After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes. There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need anything defined in there. Presumably these includes were once needed for macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the course of cleaning it up. To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble. Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha, arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig, allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all configs in arch/arm/configs on arm.

2005-09-07[PATCH] sunrpc: cache_register can use wrong module referenceBruce Allan1-2/+4
When registering an RPC cache, cache_register() always sets the owner as the sunrpc module. However, there are RPC caches owned by other modules. With the incorrect owner setting, the real owning module can be removed potentially with an open reference to the cache from userspace. For example, if one were to stop the nfs server and unmount the nfsd filesystem, the nfsd module could be removed eventhough rpc.idmapd had references to the idtoname and nametoid caches (i.e. /proc/net/rpc/nfs4.<cachename>/channel is still open). This resulted in a system panic on one of our machines when attempting to restart the nfs services after reloading the nfsd module. The following patch adds a 'struct module *owner' field in struct cache_detail. The owner is further assigned to the struct proc_dir_entry in cache_register() so that the module cannot be unloaded while user-space daemons have an open reference on the associated file under /proc.
