48d0764998 nfs: initialize the backing_dev_info when creating the server
NFS may free the server structure without ever having used the
bdi, so we either need to flag the bdi as being uninitialized or
initialize it up front. This does the latter.

This fixes a crash with mounting more than one NFS file system,
should people ever need that kind of obscure NFS functionality.

62ab460cf5 NFSv4: Add 'server capability' flags for NFSv4 recommended attributes
If the NFSv4 server doesn't support a POSIX attribute, the generic NFS code
needs to know that, so that it don't keep trying to poll for it.

However, by the same count, if the NFSv4 server does support that
attribute, then we should ensure that the inode metadata is appropriately
labelled as being untrusted. For instance, if we don't know the correct
value of the file's uid, we should certainly not be caching ACLs or ACCESS
results.

fccba80455 NFSv4: Fix an NFSv4 mount regression
Commit 008f55d0e0 (nfs41: recover lease in
_nfs4_lookup_root) forces the state manager to always run on mount. This is
a bug in the case of NFSv4.0, which doesn't require us to send a
setclientid until we want to grab file state.

In any case, this is completely the wrong place to be doing state
management. Moving that code into nfs4_init_session...

76db6d9500 nfs41: add session setup to the state manager
At mount, nfs_alloc_client sets the cl_state NFS4CLNT_LEASE_EXPIRED bit
and nfs4_alloc_session sets the NFS4CLNT_SESSION_SETUP bit, so both bits are
set when nfs4_lookup_root calls nfs4_recover_expired_lease which schedules
the nfs4_state_manager and waits for it to complete.

Place the session setup after the clientid establishment in nfs4_state_manager
so that the session is setup right after the clientid has been established
without rescheduling the state manager.

Unlike nfsv4.0, the nfs_client struct is not ready to use until the session
has been established.  Postpone marking the nfs_client struct to NFS_CS_READY
until after a successful CREATE_SESSION call so that other threads cannot use
the client until the session is established.

If the EXCHANGE_ID call fails and the session has not been setup (the
NFS4CLNT_SESSION_SETUP bit is set), mark the client with the error and return.

If the session setup CREATE_SESSION call fails with NFS4ERR_STALE_CLIENTID
which could occur due to server reboot or network partition inbetween the
EXCHANGE_ID and CREATE_SESSION call, reset the NFS4CLNT_LEASE_EXPIRED and
NFS4CLNT_SESSION_SETUP bits and try again.

If the CREATE_SESSION call fails with other errors, mark the client with
the error and return.

b797cac748 NFS: Add mount options to enable local caching on NFS
Add NFS mount options to allow the local caching support to be enabled.

The attached patch makes it possible for the NFS filesystem to be told to make
use of the network filesystem local caching service (FS-Cache).

To be able to use this, a recent nfsutils package is required.

There are three variant NFS mount options that can be added to a mount command
to control caching for a mount.  Only the last one specified takes effect:

 (*) Adding "fsc" will request caching.

 (*) Adding "fsc=<string>" will request caching and also specify a uniquifier.

 (*) Adding "nofsc" will disable caching.

For example:

	mount warthog:/ /a -o fsc

The cache of a particular superblock (NFS FSID) will be shared between all
mounts of that volume, provided they have the same connection parameters and
are not marked 'nosharecache'.

Where it is otherwise impossible to distinguish superblocks because all the
parameters are identical, but the 'nosharecache' option is supplied, a
uniquifying string must be supplied, else only the first mount will be
permitted to use the cache.

If there's a key collision, then the second mount will disable caching and give
a warning into the kernel log.

147272813e NFS: Define and create server-level objects
Define and create server-level cache index objects (as managed by nfs_client
structs).

Each server object is created in the NFS top-level index object and is itself
an index into which superblock-level objects are inserted.

Ideally there would be one superblock-level object per server, and the former
would be folded into the latter; however, since the "nosharecache" option
exists this isn't possible.

The server object key is a sequence consisting of:

 (1) NFS version

 (2) Server address family (eg: AF_INET or AF_INET6)

 (3) Server port.

 (4) Server IP address.

The key blob is of variable length, depending on the length of (4).

The server object is given no coherency data to carry in the auxiliary data
permitted by the cache.

99b7623380 proc 2/2: remove struct proc_dir_entry::owner
Setting ->owner as done currently (pde->owner = THIS_MODULE) is racy
as correctly noted at bug #12454. Someone can lookup entry with NULL
->owner, thus not pinning enything, and release it later resulting
in module refcount underflow.

We can keep ->owner and supply it at registration time like ->proc_fops
and ->data.

But this leaves ->owner as easy-manipulative field (just one C assignment)
and somebody will forget to unpin previous/pin current module when
switching ->owner. ->proc_fops is declared as "const" which should give
some thoughts.

->read_proc/->write_proc were just fixed to not require ->owner for
protection.

rmmod'ed directories will be empty and return "." and ".." -- no harm.
And directories with tricky enough readdir and lookup shouldn't be modular.
We definitely don't want such modular code.

Removing ->owner will also make PDE smaller.

So, let's nuke it.

Kudos to Jeff Layton for reminding about this, let's say, oversight.

Addresses: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11061

sockaddr structures can't be reliably compared using memcmp() because
there are padding bytes in the structure which can't be guaranteed to
be the same even when the sockaddr structures refer to the same
socket. Instead compare all the relevant fields. In the case of IPv6
sin6_flowinfo is not compared because it only affects QoS and
sin6_scope_id is only compared if the address is "link local" because
"link local" addresses need only be unique to a specific link.

d740351bf0 NFS: add "[no]resvport" mount option
The standard default security setting for NFS is AUTH_SYS.  An NFS
client connects to NFS servers via a privileged source port and a
fixed standard destination port (2049).  The client sends raw uid and
gid numbers to identify users making NFS requests, and the server
assumes an appropriate authority on the client has vetted these
values because the source port is privileged.

On Linux, by default in-kernel RPC services use a privileged port in
the range between 650 and 1023 to avoid using source ports of well-
known IP services.  Using such a small range limits the number of NFS
mount points and the number of unique NFS servers to which a client
can connect concurrently.

An NFS client can use unprivileged source ports to expand the range of
source port numbers, allowing more concurrent server connections and
more NFS mount points.  Servers must explicitly allow NFS connections
from unprivileged ports for this to work.

In the past, bumping the value of the sunrpc.max_resvport sysctl on
the client would permit the NFS client to use unprivileged ports.
Bumping this setting also changes the maximum port number used by
other in-kernel RPC services, some of which still required a port
number less than 1023.

This is exacerbated by the way source port numbers are chosen by the
Linux RPC client, which starts at the top of the range and works
downwards.  It means that bumping the maximum means all RPC services
requesting a source port will likely get an unprivileged port instead
of a privileged one.

Changing this setting effects all NFS mount points on a client.  A
sysadmin could not selectively choose which mount points would use
non-privileged ports and which could not.

Lastly, this mechanism of expanding the limit on the number of NFS
mount points was entirely undocumented.

To address the need for the NFS client to use a large range of source
ports without interfering with the activity of other in-kernel RPC
services, we introduce a new NFS mount option.  This option explicitly
tells only the NFS client to use a non-privileged source port when
communicating with the NFS server for one specific mount point.

This new mount option is called "resvport," like the similar NFS mount
option on FreeBSD and Mac OS X.  A sister patch for nfs-utils will be
submitted that documents this new option in nfs(5).

The default setting for this new mount option requires the NFS client
to use a privileged port, as before.  Explicitly specifying the
"noresvport" mount option allows the NFS client to use an unprivileged
source port for this mount point when connecting to the NFS server
port.

This mount option is supported only for text-based NFS mounts.

[ Sidebar: it is widely known that security mechanisms based on the
  use of privileged source ports are ineffective.  However, the NFS
  client can combine the use of unprivileged ports with the use of
  secure authentication mechanisms, such as Kerberos.  This allows a
  large number of connections and mount points while ensuring a useful
  level of security.

  Eventually we may change the default setting for this option
  depending on the security flavor used for the mount.  For example,
  if the mount is using only AUTH_SYS, then the default setting will
  be "resvport;" if the mount is using a strong security flavor such
  as krb5, the default setting will be "noresvport." ]

542fcc334a NFS: move nfs_server flag initialization
Make it possible for the NFSv4 mount set up logic to pass mount option
flags down the stack to nfs_create_rpc_client().

This is immediately useful if we want NFS mount options to modulate
settings of the underlying RPC transport, but it may be useful at some
later point if other parts of the NFSv4 mount initialization logic
want to know what the mount options are.

4a01b8a4ee NFS: expand flags passed to nfs_create_rpc_client()
The nfs_create_rpc_client() function sets up an RPC client for an NFS
mount point.  Add an option that allows it to set up an RPC transport
from an unprivileged port.

Instead of having nfs_create_rpc_client()'s callers retain local
knowledge about how to set up an RPC client, create a couple of flag
arguments to control the use of RPC_CLNT_CREATE flags.

The point of introducing text-based mounts was to allow us to add

The mask should be there in order to ensure that binary formats don't start

f22d6d79fe NFS: Save the value of the "port=" mount option
During a remount based on the mount options displayed in /proc/mounts, we
want to preserve the original behavior of the mount request.  Let's save
the original setting of the "port=" mount option in the mount's nfs_server
structure.

This allows us to simplify the default behavior of port setting for NFSv4
mounts: by default, NFSv2/3 mounts first try an RPC bind to determine the
NFS server's port, unless the user specified the "port=" mount option;
Users can force the client to skip the RPC bind by explicitly specifying
"port=<value>".

NFSv4, by contrast, assumes the NFS server port is 2049 and skips the RPC
bind, unless the user specifies "port=".  Users can force an RPC bind for
NFSv4 by explicitly specifying "port=0".

I added a couple of extra comments to clarify this behavior.
