2009-08-10mm_for_maps: simplify, use ptrace_may_access()Oleg Nesterov
It would be nice to kill __ptrace_may_access(). It requires task_lock(), but this lock is only needed to read mm->flags in the middle. Convert mm_for_maps() to use ptrace_may_access(), this also simplifies the code a little bit. Also, we do not need to take ->mmap_sem in advance. In fact I think mm_for_maps() should not play with ->mmap_sem at all, the caller should take this lock. With or without this patch, without ->cred_guard_mutex held we can race with exec() and get the new ->mm but check old creds.

2009-08-10mm_for_maps: take ->cred_guard_mutex to fix the race with execOleg Nesterov
The problem is minor, but without ->cred_guard_mutex held we can race with exec() and get the new ->mm but check old creds. Now we do not need to re-check task->mm after ptrace_may_access(), it can't be changed to the new mm under us. Strictly speaking, this also fixes another very minor problem. Unless security check fails or the task exits mm_for_maps() should never return NULL, the caller should get either old or new ->mm.

2009-08-09ext4: Fix bugs in mballoc's stream allocation modeTheodore Ts'o
The logic around sbi->s_mb_last_group and sbi->s_mb_last_start was all screwed up. These fields were getting unconditionally all the time, set even when stream allocation had not taken place, and if they were being used when the file was smaller than s_mb_stream_request, which is when the allocation should _not_ be doing stream allocation. Fix this by determining whether or not we stream allocation should take place once, in ext4_mb_group_or_file(), and setting a flag which gets used in ext4_mb_regular_allocator() and ext4_mb_use_best_found(). This simplifies the code and assures that we are consistently using (or not using) the stream allocation logic. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

2009-08-10ext4: fix journal ref count in move_extent_par_pagePeng Tao
move_extent_par_page calls a_ops->write_begin() to increase journal handler's reference count. However, if either mext_replace_branches() or ext4_get_block fails, the increased reference count isn't decreased. This will cause a later attempt to umount of the fs to hang forever. The patch addresses the issue by calling ext4_journal_stop() if page is not NULL (which means a_ops->write_end() isn't invoked).

2009-08-09SUNRPC: Allow the cache_detail to specify alternative upcall mechanismsTrond Myklebust
For events that are rare, such as referral DNS lookups, it makes limited sense to have a daemon constantly listening for upcalls on a channel. An alternative in those cases might simply be to run the app that fills the cache using call_usermodehelper_exec() and friends. The following patch allows the cache_detail to specify alternative upcall mechanisms for these particular cases. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

2009-08-09SUNRPC: Provide functions for managing universal addressesChuck Lever
Introduce a set of functions in the kernel's RPC implementation for converting between a socket address and either a standard presentation address string or an RPC universal address. The universal address functions will be used to encode and decode RPCB_FOO and NFSv4 SETCLIENTID arguments. The other functions are part of a previous promise to deliver shared functions that can be used by upper-layer protocols to display and manipulate IP addresses. The kernel's current address printf formatters were designed specifically for kernel to user-space APIs that require a particular string format for socket addresses, thus are somewhat limited for the purposes of sunrpc.ko. The formatter for IPv6 addresses, %pI6, does not support short-handing or scope IDs. Also, these printf formatters are unique per address family, so a separate formatter string is required for printing AF_INET and AF_INET6 addresses.

2009-08-09NFS: Use the authentication flavor list returned by mountdChuck Lever
Commit a14017db added support in the kernel's NFS mount client to decode the authentication flavor list returned by mountd. The NFS client can now use this list to determine whether the authentication flavor requested by the user is actually supported by the server. Note we don't actually negotiate the security flavor if none was specified by the user. Instead, we try to use AUTH_SYS, and fail if the server does not support it. This prevents us from negotiating an inappropriate security flavor (some servers list AUTH_NULL first). If the server does not support AUTH_SYS, the user must provide an appropriate security flavor by specifying the "sec=" mount option.

2009-08-09NFS: Fix auth flavor len accountingChuck Lever
Previous logic in the NFS mount parsing code path assumed auth_flavor_len was set to zero for simple authentication flavors (like AUTH_UNIX), and 1 for compound flavors (like AUTH_GSS). At some earlier point (maybe even before the option parsers were merged?) specific checks for auth_flavor_len being zero were removed from the functions that validate the mount option that sets the mount point's authentication flavor. Since we are populating an array for authentication flavors, the auth_flavor_len should always be set to the number of flavors. Let's eliminate some cleverness here, and prepare for new logic that needs to know the number of flavors in the auth_flavors[] array. (auth_flavors[] is an array because at some point we want to allow a list of acceptable authentication flavors to be specified via the sec= mount option. For now it remains a single element array).

2009-08-09NFS: Add ability to send MOUNTPROC_UMNT to the kernel's mountd clientChuck Lever
After certain failure modes of an NFS mount, an NFS client should send a MOUNTPROC_UMNT request to remove the just-added mount entry from the server's mount table. While no-one should rely on the accuracy of the server's mount table, sending a UMNT is simply being a good internet neighbor. Since NFS mount processing is handled in the kernel now, we will need a function in the kernel's mountd client that can post a MOUNTRPC_UMNT request, in order to handle these failure modes.

2009-08-09NFSv4: Add 'server capability' flags for NFSv4 recommended attributesTrond Myklebust
If the NFSv4 server doesn't support a POSIX attribute, the generic NFS code needs to know that, so that it don't keep trying to poll for it. However, by the same count, if the NFSv4 server does support that attribute, then we should ensure that the inode metadata is appropriately labelled as being untrusted. For instance, if we don't know the correct value of the file's uid, we should certainly not be caching ACLs or ACCESS results. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

That's not only counter-intuitive because inode_init_always did not allocate the inode structure, but in case of XFS it's actively harmful as ->destroy_inode might delete the inode from a radix-tree that has never been added. This in turn might end up deleting the inode for the same inum that has been instanciated by another process and cause lots of cause subtile problems. Also in the case of re-initializing a reclaimable inode in XFS it would free an inode we still want to keep alive.
