9e701c6109 svcrpc: simpler request dropping
Currently we use -EAGAIN returns to determine when to drop a deferred
request.  On its own, that is error-prone, as it makes us treat -EAGAIN
returns from other functions specially to prevent inadvertent dropping.

So, use a flag on the request instead.

Returning an error on request deferral is still required, to prevent
further processing, but we no longer need worry that an error return on
its own could result in a drop.

e844a7b980 nfsd: initialize nfsd versions before creating svc
Commit 59db4a0c10 "nfsd: move more into
nfsd_startup()" inadvertently moved nfsd_versions after
nfsd_create_svc().  On older distributions using an rpc.nfsd that does
not explicitly set the list of nfsd versions, this results in
svc-create_pooled() being called with an empty versions array.  The
resulting incomplete initialization leads to a NULL dereference in
svc_process_common() the first time a client accesses the server.

Move nfsd_reset_versions() back before the svc_create_pooled(); this
time, put it closer to the svc_create_pooled() call, to make this
mistake more difficult in the future.

774f8bbd9e nfsd: fix startup/shutdown order bug
We must create the server before we can call init_socks or check the
number of threads.

Symptoms were a NULL pointer dereference in nfsd_svc().  Problem
identified by Jeff Layton.

Also fix a minor cleanup-on-error case in nfsd_startup().

ac77efbe2b nfsd: just keep single lockd reference for nfsd
Right now, nfsd keeps a lockd reference for each socket that it has
open. This is unnecessary and complicates the error handling on
startup and shutdown. Change it to just do a lockd_up when starting
the first nfsd thread just do a single lockd_down when taking down the
last nfsd thread. Because of the strange way the sv_count is handled
this requires an extra flag to tell whether the nfsd_serv holds a
reference for lockd or not.

4ad9a344be nfsd4: fix v4 state shutdown error paths
If someone tries to shut down the laundry_wq while it isn't up it'll
cause an oops.

This can happen because write_ports can create a nfsd_svc before we
really start the nfs server, and we may fail before the server is ever
started.

Also make sure state is shutdown on error paths in nfsd_svc().

Use a common global nfsd_up flag instead of nfs4_init, and create common
helper functions for nfsd start/shutdown, as there will be other work
that we want done only when we the number of nfsd threads transitions
between zero and nonzero.

15ddb4aec5 NFSD: don't report compiled-out versions as present
The /proc/fs/nfsd/versions file calls nfsd_vers() to check whether
the particular nfsd version is present/available. The problem is
that once I turn off e.g. NFSD-V4 this call returns -1 which is
true from the callers POV which is wrong.

The proposal is to report false in that case.

nfsd_versbits as intermediate storage for desired versions".

e0e817392b CRED: Add some configurable debugging [try #6]
Add a config option (CONFIG_DEBUG_CREDENTIALS) to turn on some debug checking
for credential management.  The additional code keeps track of the number of
pointers from task_structs to any given cred struct, and checks to see that
this number never exceeds the usage count of the cred struct (which includes
all references, not just those from task_structs).

Furthermore, if SELinux is enabled, the code also checks that the security
pointer in the cred struct is never seen to be invalid.

This attempts to catch the bug whereby inode_has_perm() faults in an nfsd
kernel thread on seeing cred->security be a NULL pointer (it appears that the
credential struct has been previously released):

557ce2646e nfsd41: replace page based DRC with buffer based DRC
Use NFSD_SLOT_CACHE_SIZE size buffers for sessions DRC instead of holding nfsd
pages in cache.

Connectathon testing has shown that 1024 bytes for encoded compound operation
responses past the sequence operation is sufficient, 512 bytes is a little too
small. Set NFSD_SLOT_CACHE_SIZE to 1024.

Allocate memory for the session DRC in the CREATE_SESSION operation
to guarantee that the memory resource is available for caching responses.
Allocate each slot individually in preparation for slot table size negotiation.

Remove struct nfsd4_cache_entry and helper functions for the old page-based
DRC.

The iov_len calculation in nfs4svc_encode_compoundres is now always
correct.  Replay is now done in nfsd4_sequence under the state lock, so
the session ref count is only bumped on non-replay. Clean up the
nfs4svc_encode_compoundres session logic.

The nfsd4_compound_state statp pointer is also not used.
Remove nfsd4_set_statp().

Move useful nfsd4_cache_entry fields into nfsd4_slot.

671e1fcf63 nfsd: optimise the starting of zero threads when none are running.
Currently, if we ask to set then number of nfsd threads to zero when
there are none running, we set up all the sockets and register the
service, and then tear it all down again.
This is pointless.

So detect that case and exit promptly.

82e12fe924 nfsd: don't take nfsd_mutex twice when setting number of threads.
Currently when we write a number to 'threads' in nfsdfs,
we take the nfsd_mutex, update the number of threads, then take the
mutex again to read the number of threads.

Mostly this isn't a big deal.  However if we are write '0', and
portmap happens to be dead, then we can get unpredictable behaviour.
If the nfsd threads all got killed quickly and the last thread is
waiting for portmap to respond, then the second time we take the mutex
we will block waiting for the last thread.
However if the nfsd threads didn't die quite that fast, then there
will be no contention when we try to take the mutex again.

Unpredictability isn't fun, and waiting for the last thread to exit is
pointless, so avoid taking the lock twice.
To achieve this, get nfsd_svc return a non-negative number of active
threads when not returning a negative error.

8bbfa9f388 knfsd: remove the nfsd thread busy histogram
Stop gathering the data that feeds the 'th' line in /proc/net/rpc/nfsd
because the questionable data provided is not worth the scalability
impact of calculating it.  Instead, always report zeroes.  The current
approach suffers from three major issues:

1. update_thread_usage() increments buckets by call service
   time or call arrival time...in jiffies.  On lightly loaded
   machines, call service times are usually < 1 jiffy; on
   heavily loaded machines call arrival times will be << 1 jiffy.
   So a large portion of the updates to the buckets are rounded
   down to zero, and the histogram is undercounting.

2. As seen previously on the nfs mailing list, the format in which
   the histogram is presented is cryptic, difficult to explain,
   and difficult to use.

3. Updating the histogram requires taking a global spinlock and
   dirtying the global variables nfsd_last_call, nfsd_busy, and
   nfsdstats *twice* on every RPC call, which is a significant
   scaling limitation.

Testing on a 4 CPU 4 NIC Altix using 4 IRIX clients each doing
1K streaming reads at full line rate, shows the stats update code
(inlined into nfsd()) takes about 1.7% of each CPU.  This patch drops
the contribution from nfsd() into the profile noise.

This patch is a forward-ported version of knfsd-remove-nfsd-threadstats
which has been shipping in the SGI "Enhanced NFS" product since 2006.
In that time, exactly one customer has noticed that the threadstats
were missing.  It has been previously posted:

http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.nfs/10376

and more recently requested to be posted again.

1cd9cd161c NFSD: Fix BUG during NFSD shutdown processing
The Linux NFS server can be started via a user-space write to
/proc/fs/nfs/threads or to /proc/fs/nfs/portlist.  In the first case,
all default listeners are started (both UDP and TCP).  In the second,
a listener is started only for one specified transport.

The NFS server has to make sure lockd stays up until the last listener
transport goes away.  To support both start-up interfaces, it should
do one lockd_up() for each NFSD listener.

The nfsd_init_socks() function used to do one lockd_up() call for each
svc_create_xprt().  Recently commit
26a4140923 mistakenly changed
nfsd_init_socks() to do only one lockd_up() call even though it still
does two svc_create_xprt() calls.

The end result is a lockd_down() BUG during NFSD shutdown processing
because nfsd_last_threads() does a lockd_down() call for each entry
on the sv_permsocks list, but the start-up code doesn't do a matching
number of lockd_up() calls.

Add a second lockd_up() in nfsd_init_socks() to make sure the number
of lockd_up() calls matches the number of entries on the NFS servers's
sv_permsocks list.

100766f834 nfsd: treat all shutdown signals as equivalent
knfsd currently uses 2 signal masks when processing requests. A "loose"
mask (SHUTDOWN_SIGS) that it uses when receiving network requests, and
then a more "strict" mask (ALLOWED_SIGS, which is just SIGKILL) that it
allows when doing the actual operation on the local storage.

This is apparently unnecessarily complicated. The underlying filesystem
should be able to sanely handle a signal in the middle of an operation.
This patch removes the signal mask handling from knfsd altogether. When
knfsd is started as a kthread, all signals are ignored. It then allows
all of the signals in SHUTDOWN_SIGS. There's no need to set the mask
as well.

9867d76ca1 knfsd: convert knfsd to kthread API
This patch is rather large, but I couldn't figure out a way to break it
up that would remain bisectable. It does several things:

- change svc_thread_fn typedef to better match what kthread_create expects
- change svc_pool_map_set_cpumask to be more kthread friendly. Make it
  take a task arg and and get rid of the "oldmask"
- have svc_set_num_threads call kthread_create directly
- eliminate __svc_create_thread

e096bbc648 knfsd: remove special handling for SIGHUP
The special handling for SIGHUP in knfsd is a holdover from much
earlier versions of Linux where reloading the export table was
more expensive. That facility is not really needed anymore and
to my knowledge, is seldom-used.

3dd98a3bcc knfsd: clean up nfsd filesystem interfaces
Several of the nfsd filesystem interfaces allow changes to parameters
that don't have any effect on a running nfsd service. They are only ever
checked when nfsd is started. This patch fixes it so that changes to
those procfiles return -EBUSY if nfsd is already running to make it
clear that changes on the fly don't work.

The patch should also close some relatively harmless races between
changing the info in those interfaces and starting nfsd, since these
variables are being moved under the protection of the nfsd_mutex.

Finally, the nfsv4recoverydir file always returns -EINVAL if read. This
patch fixes it to return the recoverydir path as expected.

bedbdd8bad knfsd: Replace lock_kernel with a mutex for nfsd thread startup/shutdown locking.
This removes the BKL from the RPC service creation codepath. The BKL
really isn't adequate for this job since some of this info needs
protection across sleeps.

Also, add some comments to try and clarify how the locking should work
and to make it clear that the BKL isn't necessary as long as there is
adequate locking between tasks when touching the svc_serv fields.

7a18208383 svc: Make close transport independent
Move sk_list and sk_ready to svc_xprt. This involves close because these
lists are walked by svcs when closing all their transports. So I combined
the moving of these lists to svc_xprt with making close transport independent.

The svc_force_sock_close has been changed to svc_close_all and takes a list
as an argument. This removes some svc internals knowledge from the svcs.

This code races with module removal and transport addition.

Thanks to Simon Holm Thøgersen for a compile fix.
