* SUNRPC: Provide a callback to allow free pages allocated during xdr encodingJ. Bruce Fields2005-10-19
| | | | | | | | | For privacy, we need to allocate pages to store the encrypted data (passed in pages can't be used without the risk of corrupting data in the page cache). So we need a way to free that memory after the request has been transmitted. Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@citi.umich.edu> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
* SUNRPC: Add support for privacy to generic gss-api code.J. Bruce Fields2005-10-19
| | | | | | | | | Add support for privacy to generic gss-api code. This is dead code until we have both a mechanism that supports privacy and code in the client or server that uses it.

* RPC: allow call_encode() to delay transmission of an RPC call.Trond Myklebust2005-10-18
| | | | | | | | Currently, call_encode will cause the entire RPC call to abort if it returns an error. This is unnecessarily rigid, and gets in the way of attempts to allow the NFSv4 layer to order RPC calls that carry sequence ids. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

* [PATCH] RPC,NFS: new rpc_pipefs patchChristoph Hellwig2005-09-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently rpc_mkdir/rpc_rmdir and rpc_mkpipe/mk_unlink have an API that's a little unfortunate. They take a path relative to the rpc_pipefs root and thus need to perform a full lookup. If you look at debugfs or usbfs they always store the dentry for directories they created and thus can pass in a dentry + single pathname component pair into their equivalents of the above functions. And in fact rpc_pipefs actually stores a dentry for all but one component so this change not only simplifies the core rpc_pipe code but also the callers. Unfortuntately this code path is only used by the NFS4 idmapper and AUTH_GSSAPI for which I don't have a test enviroment. Could someone give it a spin? It's the last bit needed before we can rework the lookup_hash API Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

* [PATCH] RPC: parametrize various transport connect timeoutsChuck Lever2005-09-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Each transport implementation can now set unique bind, connect, reestablishment, and idle timeout values. These are variables, allowing the values to be modified dynamically. This permits exponential backoff of any of these values, for instance. As an example, we implement exponential backoff for the connection reestablishment timeout. Test-plan: Destructive testing (unplugging the network temporarily). Connectathon with UDP and TCP.

* [PATCH] RPC: allow RPC client's port range to be adjustableChuck Lever2005-09-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Select an RPC client source port between 650 and 1023 instead of between 1 and 800. The old range conflicts with a number of network services. Provide sysctls to allow admins to select a different port range. Note that this doesn't affect user-level RPC library behavior, which still uses 1 to 800. Based on a suggestion by Olaf Kirch <okir@suse.de>. Test-plan: Repeated mount and unmount. Destructive testing. Idle timeouts.

* [PATCH] RPC: expose API for serializing access to RPC transportsChuck Lever2005-09-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The next several patches introduce an API that allows transports to choose whether the RPC client provides congestion control or whether the transport itself provides it. The first method we abstract is the one that serializes access to the RPC transport to prevent the bytes from different requests from mingling together. This method provides proper request serialization and the opportunity to prevent new requests from being started because the transport is congested. The normal situation is for the transport to handle congestion control itself. Although NFS over UDP was first, it has been recognized after years of experience that having the transport provide congestion control is much better than doing it in the RPC client. Thus TCP, and probably every future transport implementation, will use the default method, xprt_lock_write, provided in xprt.c, which does not provide any kind of congestion control. UDP can continue using the xprt.c-provided Van Jacobson congestion avoidance implementation. Test-plan: Use WAN simulation to cause sporadic bursty packet loss.

* [PATCH] sunrpc: cache_register can use wrong module referenceBruce Allan2005-09-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When registering an RPC cache, cache_register() always sets the owner as the sunrpc module. However, there are RPC caches owned by other modules. With the incorrect owner setting, the real owning module can be removed potentially with an open reference to the cache from userspace. For example, if one were to stop the nfs server and unmount the nfsd filesystem, the nfsd module could be removed eventhough rpc.idmapd had references to the idtoname and nametoid caches (i.e. /proc/net/rpc/nfs4.<cachename>/channel is still open). This resulted in a system panic on one of our machines when attempting to restart the nfs services after reloading the nfsd module. The following patch adds a 'struct module *owner' field in struct cache_detail. The owner is further assigned to the struct proc_dir_entry in cache_register() so that the module cannot be unloaded while user-space daemons have an open reference on the associated file under /proc.

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!
