SUNRPC: Add a generic RPC credential

2008-03-14T17:42:38+00:00

Add an rpc credential that is not tied to any particular auth mechanism,
but that can be cached by NFS, and later used to look up a cred for
whichever auth mechanism that turns out to be valid when the RPC call is
being made.

svc: Add an svc transport class

2008-02-01T21:42:07+00:00

The transport class (svc_xprt_class) represents a type of transport, e.g.
udp, tcp, rdma.  A transport class has a unique name and a set of transport
operations kept in the svc_xprt_ops structure.

A transport class can be dynamically registered and unregisterd. The
svc_xprt_class represents the module that implements the transport
type and keeps reference counts on the module to avoid unloading while
there are active users.

The endpoint (svc_xprt) is a generic, transport independent endpoint that can
be used to send and receive data for an RPC service. It inherits it's
operations from the transport class.

A transport driver module registers and unregisters itself with svc sunrpc
by calling svc_reg_xprt_class, and svc_unreg_xprt_class respectively.

RPCRDMA: rpc rdma transport switch

2007-10-09T21:18:03+00:00

This implements the configuration and building of the core transport
switch implementation of the rpcrdma transport. Stubs are provided for
the rpcrdma protocol handling, and the infiniband/iwarp verbs interface.
These are provided in following patches.

SUNRPC: introduce rpcbind: replacement for in-kernel portmapper

2007-05-01T05:17:12+00:00

Introduce a replacement for the in-kernel portmapper client that supports
all 3 versions of the rpcbind protocol.  This code is not used yet.

Original code by Groupe Bull updated for the latest kernel, with multiple
bug fixes.

Note that rpcb_clnt.c does not yet support registering via versions 3 and
4 of the rpcbind protocol.  That is planned for a later patch.

[PATCH] RPC: introduce client-side transport switch

2005-09-23T16:38:12+00:00

 Move the bulk of client-side socket-specific code into a separate source
 file, net/sunrpc/xprtsock.c.

 Test-plan:
 Millions of fsx operations.  Performance characterization such as "sio" or
 "iozone".  Destructive testing (unplugging the network temporarily, server
 reboots).  Connectathon with v2, v3, and v4.

[PATCH] RPC: extract socket logic common to both client and server

2005-09-23T16:38:11+00:00

 Clean-up: Move some code that is common to both RPC client- and server-side
 socket transports into its own source file, net/sunrpc/socklib.c.

 Test-plan:
 Compile kernel with CONFIG_NFS enabled.  Millions of fsx operations over
 UDP, client and server.  Connectathon over UDP.

Linux-2.6.12-rc2

2005-04-16T22:20:36+00:00

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
