2009-04-01SUNRPC: Ensure IPV6_V6ONLY is set on the socket before binding to a portTrond Myklebust

2009-03-28SUNRPC: Remove CONFIG_SUNRPC_REGISTER_V4Chuck Lever
We just augmented the kernel's RPC service registration code so that it automatically adjusts to what is supported in user space. Thus we no longer need the kernel configuration option to enable registering RPC services with v4 -- it's all done automatically.

2009-03-28SUNRPC: rpcb_register() should handle errors silentlyChuck Lever
Move error reporting for RPC registration to rpcb_register's caller. This way the caller can choose to recover silently from certain errors, but report errors it does not recognize. Error reporting for kernel RPC service registration is now handled in one place.

2009-03-28SUNRPC: Simplify kernel RPC service registrationChuck Lever
The kernel registers RPC services with the local portmapper with an rpcbind SET upcall to the local portmapper. Traditionally, this used rpcbind v2 (PMAP), but registering RPC services that support IPv6 requires rpcbind v3 or v4. Since we now want separate PF_INET and PF_INET6 listeners for each kernel RPC service, svc_register() will do only one of those registrations at a time. For PF_INET, it tries an rpcb v4 SET upcall first; if that fails, it does a legacy portmap SET. This makes it entirely backwards compatible with legacy user space, but allows a proper v4 SET to be used if rpcbind is available. For PF_INET6, it does an rpcb v4 SET upcall. If that fails, it fails the registration, and thus the transport creation. This let's the kernel detect if user space is able to support IPv6 RPC services, and thus whether it should maintain a PF_INET6 listener for each service at all. This provides complete backwards compatibilty with legacy user space that only supports rpcbind v2. The only down-side is that registering a new kernel RPC service may take an extra exchange with the local portmapper on legacy systems, but this is an infrequent operation and is done over UDP (no lingering sockets in TIMEWAIT), so it shouldn't be consequential.

2009-03-28SUNRPC: Simplify svc_unregister()Chuck Lever
Our initial implementation of svc_unregister() assumed that PMAP_UNSET cleared all rpcbind registrations for a [program, version] tuple. However, we now have evidence that PMAP_UNSET clears only "inet" entries, and not "inet6" entries, in the rpcbind database. For backwards compatibility with the legacy portmapper, the svc_unregister() function also must work if user space doesn't support rpcbind version 4 at all. Thus we'll send an rpcbind v4 UNSET, and if that fails, we'll send a PMAP_UNSET. This simplifies the code in svc_unregister() and provides better backwards compatibility with legacy user space that does not support rpcbind version 4. We can get rid of the conditional compilation in here as well.

2009-03-28SUNRPC: Allow callers to pass rpcb_v4_register a NULL addressChuck Lever
The user space TI-RPC library uses an empty string for the universal address when unregistering all target addresses for [program, version]. The kernel's rpcb client should behave the same way. Here, we are switching between several registration methods based on the protocol family of the incoming address. Rename the other rpcbind v4 registration functions to make it clear that they, as well, are switched on protocol family. In /etc/netconfig, this is either "inet" or "inet6". NB: The loopback protocol families are not supported in the kernel. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2009-03-28SUNRPC: rpcbind actually interprets r_owner stringChuck Lever
RFC 1833 has little to say about the contents of r_owner; it only specifies that it is a string, and states that it is used to control who can UNSET an entry. Our port of rpcbind (from Sun) assumes this string contains a numeric UID value, not alphabetical or symbolic characters, but checks this value only for AF_LOCAL RPCB_SET or RPCB_UNSET requests. In all other cases, rpcbind ignores the contents of the r_owner string. The reference user space implementation of rpcb_set(3) uses a numeric UID for all SET/UNSET requests (even via the network) and an empty string for all other requests. We emulate that behavior here to maintain bug-for-bug compatibility. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

2009-03-28SUNRPC: Don't return EPROTONOSUPPORT in svc_register()'s helpersChuck Lever
The RPC client returns -EPROTONOSUPPORT if there is a protocol version mismatch (ie the remote RPC server doesn't support the RPC protocol version sent by the client). Helpers for the svc_register() function return -EPROTONOSUPPORT if they don't recognize the passed-in IPPROTO_ value. These are two entirely different failure modes. Have the helpers return -ENOPROTOOPT instead of -EPROTONOSUPPORT. This will allow callers to determine more precisely what the underlying problem is, and decide to report or recover appropriately.

2009-03-28SUNRPC: Use IPv4 loopback for registering AF_INET6 kernel RPC servicesChuck Lever
The kernel uses an IPv6 loopback address when registering its AF_INET6 RPC services so that it can tell whether the local portmapper is actually IPv6-enabled. Since the legacy portmapper doesn't listen on IPv6, however, this causes a long timeout on older systems if the kernel happens to try creating and registering an AF_INET6 RPC service. Originally I wanted to use a connected transport (either TCP or connected UDP) so that the upcall would fail immediately if the portmapper wasn't listening on IPv6, but we never agreed on what transport to use. In the end, it's of little consequence to the kernel whether the local portmapper is listening on IPv6. It's only important whether the portmapper supports rpcbind v4. And the kernel can't tell that at all if it is sending requests via IPv6 -- the portmapper will just ignore them. So, send both rpcbind v2 and v4 SET/UNSET requests via IPv4 loopback to maintain better backwards compatibility between new kernels and legacy user space, and prevent multi-second hangs in some cases when the kernel attempts to register RPC services.

We are about to convert to using separate RPC listener sockets for PF_INET and PF_INET6.

2009-03-28SUNRPC: Remove @family argument from svc_create() and svc_create_pooled()Chuck Lever
Since an RPC service listener's protocol family is specified now via svc_create_xprt(), it no longer needs to be passed to svc_create() or svc_create_pooled().

The sv_family field is going away. Pass a protocol family argument to svc_create_xprt() instead of extracting the family from the passed-in svc_serv struct.

2009-03-28SUNRPC: Pass a family argument to svc_register()Chuck Lever
The sv_family field is going away. Instead of using sv_family, have the svc_register() function take a protocol family argument. Since this argument represents a protocol family, and not an address family, this argument takes an int, as this is what is passed to sock_create_kern(). Also make sure svc_register's helpers are checking for PF_FOO instead of AF_FOO. The value of [AP]F_FOO are equivalent; this is simply a symbolic change to reflect the semantics of the value stored in that variable. sock_create_kern() should return EPFNOSUPPORT if the passed-in protocol family isn't supported, but it uses EAFNOSUPPORT for this case. We will stick with that tradition here, as svc_register() is called by the RPC server in the same path as sock_create_kern().

2009-03-28SUNRPC: Don't flag empty RPCB_GETADDR reply as bogusChuck Lever
In 2007, commit e65fe3976f594603ed7b1b4a99d3e9b867f573ea added additional sanity checking to rpcb_decode_getaddr() to make sure we were getting a reply that was long enough to be an actual universal address. If the uaddr string isn't long enough, the XDR decoder returns EIO. However, an empty string is a valid RPCB_GETADDR response if the requested service isn't registered. Moreover, "::.n.m" is also a valid RPCB_GETADDR response for IPv6 addresses that is shorter than rpcb_decode_getaddr()'s lower limit of 11. So this sanity check introduced a regression for rpcbind requests against IPv6 remotes. So revert the lower bound check added by commit e65fe3976f594603ed7b1b4a99d3e9b867f573ea, and add an explicit check for an empty uaddr string, similar to libtirpc's rpcb_getaddr(3).

2009-03-19SUNRPC: Add the equivalent of the linger and linger2 timeouts to RPC socketsTrond Myklebust
This fixes a regression against FreeBSD servers as reported by Tomas Kasparek. Apparently when using RPC over a TCP socket, the FreeBSD servers don't ever react to the client closing the socket, and so commit e06799f958bf7f9f8fae15f0c6f519953fb0257c (SUNRPC: Use shutdown() instead of close() when disconnecting a TCP socket) causes the setup to hang forever whenever the client attempts to close and then reconnect. We break the deadlock by adding a 'linger2' style timeout to the socket, after which, the client will abort the connection using a TCP 'RST'. The default timeout is set to 15 seconds. A subsequent patch will put it under user control by means of a systctl. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

2009-03-11SUNRPC: Avoid spurious wake-up during UDP connect processingChuck Lever
To clear out old state, the UDP connect workers unconditionally invoke xs_close() before proceeding with a new connect. Nowadays this causes a spurious wake-up of the task waiting for the connect to complete. This is a little racey, but usually harmless. The waiting task immediately retries the connect via a call_bind/call_connect sequence, which usually finds the transport already in the connected state because the connect worker has finished in the background. To avoid a spurious wake-up, factor the xs_close() logic that resets the underlying socket into a helper, and have the UDP connect workers call that helper instead of xs_close().

svc_check_conn_limits() attempts to prevent denial of service attacks by having the service close old connections once it reaches a threshold.

Increasing the number of threads isn't an option however for services like lockd. We don't want to eliminate this check entirely for such services but we need some way to increase this limit.

2008-12-23rpc: add service field to new upcallOlga Kornievskaia
This patch extends the new upcall with a "service" field that currently can have 2 values: "*" or "nfs". These values specify matching rules for principals in the keytab file. The "*" means that gssd is allowed to use "root", "nfs", or "host" keytab entries while the other option requires "nfs". Restricting gssd to use the "nfs" principal is needed for when the server performs a callback to the client. The server in this case has to authenticate itself as an "nfs" principal. We also need "service" field to distiguish between two client-side cases both currently using a uid of 0: the case of regular file access by the root user, and the case of state-management calls (such as setclientid) which should use a keytab for authentication. (And the upcall should fail if an appropriate principal can't be found.) Signed-off: Olga Kornievskaia <aglo@citi.umich.edu> Signed-off-by: J.

2008-12-23rpc: add target field to new upcallOlga Kornievskaia
This patch extends the new upcall by adding a "target" field communicating who we want to authenticate to (equivalently, the service principal that we want to acquire a ticket for).
