Thanks to Trond for spotting my error!" This actually includes the new layout types, so here's that part of the pull message repeated: "Support for a new pnfs layout type from Christoph Hellwig. The new layout type is a variant of the block layout which uses SCSI features to offer improved fencing and device identification. Note this pull request also includes the client side of SCSI layout, with Trond's permission" * tag 'nfsd-4.6-1' of git://linux-nfs.org/~bfields/linux: nfsd: use short read as well as i_size to set eof nfsd: better layoutupdate bounds-checking nfsd: block and scsi layout drivers need to depend on CONFIG_BLOCK nfsd: add SCSI layout support nfsd: move some blocklayout code nfsd: add a new config option for the block layout driver nfs/blocklayout: add SCSI layout support nfs4.h: add SCSI layout definitions
| * nfsd: add SCSI layout supportChristoph Hellwig2016-03-181-0/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a simple extension to the block layout driver to use SCSI persistent reservations for access control and fencing, as well as SCSI VPD pages for device identification. For this we need to pass the nfs4_client to the proc_getdeviceinfo method to generate the reservation key, and add a new fence_client method to allow for fence actions in the layout driver.

* ipconfig: send Client-identifier in DHCP requestsLi RongQing2015-10-181-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A dhcp server may provide parameters to a client from a pool of IP addresses and using a shared rootfs, or provide a specific set of parameters for a specific client, usually using the MAC address to identify each client individually. The dhcp protocol also specifies a client-id field which can be used to determine the correct parameters to supply when no MAC address is available. There is currently no way to tell the kernel to supply a specific client-id, only the userspace dhcp clients support this feature, but this can not be used when the network is needed before userspace is available such as when the root filesystem is on NFS. This patch is to be able to do something like "ip=dhcp,client_id_type, client_id_value", as a kernel parameter to enable the kernel to identify itself to the server.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The main advantge of this new upcall mechanism is that it can handle big tickets as seen in Kerberos implementations where tickets carry authorization data like the MS-PAC buffer with AD or the Posix Authorization Data being discussed in IETF on the krbwg working group. The Gssproxy program is used to perform the accept_sec_context call on the kernel's behalf. The code is changed to also pass the input buffer straight to upcall mechanism to avoid allocating and copying many pages as tokens can be as big (potentially more in future) as 64KiB.

* nfsd4: delay filling in write iovec array till after xdr decodingJ. Bruce Fields2012-11-261-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Our server rejects compounds containing more than one write operation. It's unclear whether this is really permitted by the spec; with 4.0, it's possibly OK, with 4.1 (which has clearer limits on compound parameters), it's probably not OK. No client that we're aware of has ever done this, but in theory it could be useful. The source of the limitation: we need an array of iovecs to pass to the write operation. In the worst case that array of iovecs could have hundreds of elements (the maximum rwsize divided by the page size), so it's too big to put on the stack, or in each compound op. So we instead keep a single such array in the compound argument. We fill in that array at the time we decode the xdr operation. But we decode every op in the compound before executing any of them. So once we've used that array we can't decode another write. If we instead delay filling in that array till the time we actually perform the write, we can reuse it. Another option might be to switch to decoding compound ops one at a time. I considered doing that, but it has a number of other side effects, and I'd rather fix just this one problem for now.

| * | NFS: Add nfs4_unique_id boot parameterChuck Lever2012-10-011-3/+41
| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | An optional boot parameter is introduced to allow client administrators to specify a string that the Linux NFS client can insert into its nfs_client_id4 id string, to make it both more globally unique, and to ensure that it doesn't change even if the client's nodename changes. If this boot parameter is not specified, the client's nodename is used, as before. Client installation procedures can create a unique string (typically, a UUID) which remains unchanged during the lifetime of that client instance. This works just like creating a UUID for the label of the system's root and boot volumes.

* / ipconfig: add nameserver IPs to kernel-parameter ip=Christoph Fritz2012-09-211-1/+9
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | On small systems (e.g. embedded ones) IP addresses are often configured by bootloaders and get assigned to kernel via parameter "ip=". If set to "ip=dhcp", even nameserver entries from DHCP daemons are handled. These entries exported in /proc/net/pnp are commonly linked by /etc/resolv.conf. To configure nameservers for networks without DHCP, this patch adds option <dns0-ip> and <dns1-ip> to kernel-parameter 'ip='.

* pnfs-obj: autologin: Add support for protocol autologinSachin Bhamare2012-03-211-0/+54
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The pnfs-objects protocol mandates that we autologin into devices not present in the system, according to information specified in the get_device_info returned from the server. The Protocol specifies two login hints. 1. An IP address:port combination 2. A string URI which is constructed as a URL with a protocol prefix followed by :// and a string as address. For each protocol prefix the string-address format might be different. We only support the second option. The first option is just redundant to the second one. NOTE: The Kernel part of autologin does not parse the URI string. It just channels it to a user-mode script. So any new login protocols should only update the user-mode script which is a part of the nfs-utils package, but the Kernel need not change. We implement the autologin by using the call_usermodehelper() API. (Thanks to Steve Dickson <steved@redhat.com> for pointing it out) So there is no running daemon needed, and/or special setup. We Add the osd_login_prog Kernel module parameters which defaults to: /sbin/osd_login Kernel try's to upcall the program specified in osd_login_prog. If the file is not found or the execution fails Kernel will disable any farther upcalls, by zeroing out osd_login_prog, Until Admin re-enables it by setting the osd_login_prog parameter to a proper program. Also add text about the osd_login program command line API to: Documentation/filesystems/nfs/pnfs.txt and documentation of the new osd_login_prog module parameter to: Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt TODO: Add timeout option in the case osd_login program gets stuck Signed-off-by: Sachin Bhamare <sbhamare@panasas.com> Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

* NFS: new idmapperBryan Schumaker2010-10-072-0/+69
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch creates a new idmapper system that uses the request-key function to place a call into userspace to map user and group ids to names. The old idmapper was single threaded, which prevented more than one request from running at a single time. This means that a user would have to wait for an upcall to finish before accessing a cached result. The upcall result is stored on a keyring of type id_resolver.
