* CRED: Wrap task credential accesses in the CIFS filesystemDavid Howells2008-11-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Wrap access to task credentials so that they can be separated more easily from the task_struct during the introduction of COW creds. Change most current->(|e|s|fs)[ug]id to current_(|e|s|fs)[ug]id(). Change some task->e?[ug]id to task_e?[ug]id(). In some places it makes more sense to use RCU directly rather than a convenient wrapper; these will be addressed by later patches.

* [CIFS] Reduce number of socket retries in large write pathSteve French2008-10-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | CIFS in some heavy stress conditions cifs could get EAGAIN repeatedly in smb_send2 which led to repeated retries and eventually failure of large writes which could lead to data corruption. There are three changes that were suggested by various network developers: 1) convert cifs from non-blocking to blocking tcp sendmsg (we left in the retry on failure) 2) change cifs to not set sendbuf and rcvbuf size for the socket (let tcp autotune the buffer sizes since that works much better in the TCP stack now) 3) if we have a partial frame sent in smb_send2, mark the tcp session as invalid (close the socket and reconnect) so we do not corrupt the remaining part of the SMB with the beginning of the next SMB. This does not appear to hurt performance measurably and has been run in various scenarios, but it definately removes a corruption that we were seeing in some high stress test cases.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | cifs: handle the TCP_Server_Info->tsk field more carefully We currently handle the TCP_Server_Info->tsk field without any locking, but with some half-measures to try and prevent races. These aren't really sufficient though. When taking down cifsd, use xchg() to swap the contents of the tsk field with NULL so we don't end up trying to send it more than one signal.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | renames cifs: fix unlinking of rename target when server doesn't support open file renames The patch to make cifs_rename undoable broke renaming one file on top of another when the server doesn't support busy file renames. Remove the code that uses busy file renames to unlink the target file, and just have it call cifs_unlink. If the rename of the source file fails, then the unlink won't be undoable, but hopefully that's rare enough that it won't be a problem.

| * [CIFS] improve setlease handlingSteve French2008-10-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | fcntl(F_SETLEASE) currently is not exported by cifs (nor by local file systems) so cifs grants leases based on how other local processes have opened the file not by whether the file is cacheable (oplocked). This adds the check to make sure that the file is cacheable on the client before checking whether we can grant the lease locally (generic_setlease). It also adds a mount option for cifs (locallease) if the user wants to override this and try to grant leases even if the server did not grant oplock. Signed-off-by: Steve French <sfrench@us.ibm.com>
| * [CIFS] fix saving of resume key before CIFSFindNextJeff Layton2008-10-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We recently fixed the cifs readdir code so that it saves the resume key before calling CIFSFindNext.

| * [CIFS] eliminate usage of kthread_stop for cifsdJeff Layton2008-10-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When cifs_demultiplex_thread was converted to a kthread based kernel thread, great pains were taken to make it so that kthread_stop would be used to bring it down. This just added unnecessary complexity since we needed to use a signal anyway to break out of kernel_recvmsg. Also, cifs_demultiplex_thread does a bit of cleanup as it's exiting, and we need to be certain that this gets done. It's possible for a kthread to exit before its main function is ever run if kthread_stop is called soon after its creation. While I'm not sure that this is a real problem with cifsd now, it could be at some point in the future if cifs_mount is ever changed to bring down the thread quickly. The upshot here is that using kthread_stop to bring down the thread just adds extra complexity with no real benefit. This patch changes the code to use the original method to bring down the thread, but still leaves it so that the thread is actually started with kthread_run.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For execute permission on a regular files we need to check if file has any execute bits at all, regardless of capabilites. This check is normally performed by generic_permission() but was also added to the case when the filesystem defines its own ->permission() method. In the latter case the filesystem should be responsible for performing this check. Move the check from inode_permission() inside filesystems which are not calling generic_permission(). Create a helper function execute_ok() that returns true if the inode is a directory or if any execute bits are present in i_mode. Also fix up the following code: - coda control file is never executable - sysctl files are never executable - hfs_permission seems broken on MAY_EXEC, remove - hfsplus_permission is eqivalent to generic_permission(), remove Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz>

* | vmscan: split LRU lists into anon & file setsRik van Riel2008-10-20
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Split the LRU lists in two, one set for pages that are backed by real file systems ("file") and one for pages that are backed by memory and swap ("anon"). The latter includes tmpfs. The advantage of doing this is that the VM will not have to scan over lots of anonymous pages (which we generally do not want to swap out), just to find the page cache pages that it should evict. This patch has the infrastructure and a basic policy to balance how much we scan the anon lists and how much we scan the file lists. The big policy changes are in separate patches.

* [CIFS] make sure we have the right resume info before calling CIFSFindNextSteve French2008-10-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we do a seekdir() or equivalent, we usually end up doing a FindFirst call and then call FindNext until we get to the offset that we want. The problem is that when we call FindNext, the code usually doesn't have the proper info (mostly, the filename of the entry from the last search) to resume the search. Add a "last_entry" field to the cifs_search_info that points to the last entry in the search. We calculate this pointer by using the LastNameOffset field from the search parms that are returned. We then use that info to do a cifs_save_resume_key before we call CIFSFindNext. This patch allows CIFS to reliably pass the "telldir" connectathon test.

* [CIFS] clean up error handling in cifs_unlinkSteve French2008-10-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, if a standard delete fails and we end up getting -EACCES we try to clear ATTR_READONLY and try the delete again. If that then fails with -ETXTBSY then we try a rename_pending_delete. We aren't handling other errors appropriately though. Another client could have deleted the file in the meantime and we get back -ENOENT, for instance. In that case we wouldn't do a d_drop. Instead of retrying in a separate call, simply goto the original call and use the error handling from that. Also, we weren't properly undoing any attribute changes that were done before returning an error back to the caller.

* cifs: fix O_APPEND on directio mountsJeff Layton2008-08-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The direct I/O write codepath for CIFS is done through cifs_user_write(). That function does not currently call generic_write_checks() so the file position isn't being properly set when the file is opened with O_APPEND. It's also not doing the other "normal" checks that should be done for a write call. The problem is currently that when you open a file with O_APPEND on a mount with the directio mount option, the file position is set to the beginning of the file. This makes any subsequent writes clobber the data in the file starting at the beginning. This seems to fix the problem in cursory testing. It is, however important to note that NFS disallows the combination of (O_DIRECT|O_APPEND). If my understanding is correct, the concern is races with multiple clients appending to a file clobbering each others' data. Since the write model for CIFS and NFS is pretty similar in this regard, CIFS is probably subject to the same sort of races. What's unclear to me is why this is a particular problem with O_DIRECT and not with buffered writes... Regardless, disallowing O_APPEND on an entire mount is probably not reasonable, so we'll probably just have to deal with it and reevaluate this flag combination when we get proper support for O_DIRECT. In the meantime this patch at least fixes the existing problem. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Cc: Stable Tree <stable@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Steve French <sfrench@us.ibm.com>

I tested it with Samba by setting password encryption to no in the server's smb.conf. Other servers also can be configured to force plaintext authentication. Note that plaintexti authentication requires setting /proc/fs/cifs/SecurityFlags to 0x30030 on the client (enabling both LANMAN and also plaintext password support). Also note that LANMAN support (and thus plaintext password support) requires CONFIG_CIFS_WEAK_PW_HASH to be enabled in menuconfig.

* [CIFS] check version in spnego upcall responseSteve French2008-08-25
| | | | | | | | | Currently, we don't check the version in the SPNEGO upcall response even though one is provided. Jeff and Q have made the corresponding change to the Samba client (cifs.upcall). Acked-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steve French <sfrench@us.ibm.com>

* [CIFS] distinguish between Kerberos and MSKerberos in upcallSteve French2008-08-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | Properly handle MSKRB5 by passing sec=mskrb5 to the upcall so that the spengo blob can be generated appropriately. Also, make decode_negTokenInit prefer whichever mechanism is first in the list. Needed for some NetApp servers, and possibly some older versions of Windows which treat the two KRB5 mechanisms differently.

* cifs: add local server pointer to cifs_setup_sessionJeff Layton2008-08-19
| | | | | | | | | | cifs_setup_session references pSesInfo->server several times. That pointer shouldn't change during the life of the function so grab it once and store it in a local var. This makes the code look a little cleaner too. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steve French <sfrench@us.ibm.com>
