Currently, if the application that holds the file open isn't doing
I/O, we may end up returning the delegation. This means that we can
no longer cache the file as aggressively, and often also that we
multiply the state that both the server and the client needs to track.
This patch adds a check for open files to the routine that scans
for delegations that are unreferenced.

It is unsafe to use list_for_each_entry_safe() here, because
when we drop the nn->nfs_client_lock, we pin the _current_ list
entry and ensure that it stays in the list, but we don't do the
same for the _next_ list entry. Use of list_for_each_entry() is
therefore the correct thing to do.
Also fix the refcounting in nfs41_walk_client_list().
Finally, ensure that the nfs_client has finished being initialised
and, in the case of NFSv4.1, that the session is set up.

Since commit ec88f28d in 2009, checking if the user-specified flavor
is in the server's flavor list has been the source of a few
noticeable regressions (now fixed), but there is one that is still
vexing.
An NFS server can list AUTH_NULL in its flavor list, which suggests
a client should try to mount the server with the flavor of the
client's choice, but the server will squash all accesses. In some
cases, our client fails to mount a server because of this check,
when the mount could have proceeded successfully.
Skip this check if the user has specified "sec=" on the mount
command line. But do consult the server-provided flavor list to
choose a security flavor if no sec= option is specified on the mount
command.
If a server lists Kerberos pseudoflavors before "sys" in its export
options, our client now chooses Kerberos over AUTH_UNIX for mount
points, when no security flavor is specified by the mount command.
This could be surprising to some administrators or users, who would
then need to have Kerberos credentials to access the export.
Or, a client administrator may not have enabled rpc.gssd. In this
case, auth_rpcgss.ko might still be loadable, which is enough for
the new logic to choose Kerberos over AUTH_UNIX. But the mount
would fail since no GSS context can be created without rpc.gssd
running.
To retain the use of AUTH_UNIX by default:
o The server administrator can ensure that "sys" is listed before
Kerberos flavors in its export security options (see
exports(5)),
o The client administrator can explicitly specify "sec=sys" on
its mount command line (see nfs(5)),
o The client administrator can use "Sec=sys" in an appropriate
section of /etc/nfsmount.conf (see nfsmount.conf(5)), or
o The client administrator can blacklist auth_rpcgss.ko.

I had the following problem reported a while back. If you mount the
same filesystem twice using NFSv4 with different contexts, then the
second context= option is ignored. For instance:
# mount server:/export /mnt/test1
# mount server:/export /mnt/test2 -o context=system_u:object_r:tmp_t:s0
# ls -dZ /mnt/test1
drwxrwxrwt. root root system_u:object_r:nfs_t:s0 /mnt/test1
# ls -dZ /mnt/test2
drwxrwxrwt. root root system_u:object_r:nfs_t:s0 /mnt/test2
When we call into SELinux to set the context of a "cloned" superblock,
it will currently just bail out when it notices that we're reusing an
existing superblock. Since the existing superblock is already set up and
presumably in use, we can't go overwriting its context with the one from
the "original" sb. Because of this, the second context= option in this
case cannot take effect.
This patch fixes this by turning security_sb_clone_mnt_opts into an int
return operation. When it finds that the "new" superblock that it has
been handed is already set up, it checks to see whether the contexts on
the old superblock match it. If it does, then it will just return
success, otherwise it'll return -EBUSY and emit a printk to tell the
admin why the second mount failed.
Note that this patch may cause casualties. The NFSv4 code relies on
being able to walk down to an export from the pseudoroot. If you mount
filesystems that are nested within one another with different contexts,
then this patch will make those mounts fail in new and "exciting" ways.
For instance, suppose that /export is a separate filesystem on the
server:
# mount server:/ /mnt/test1
# mount salusa:/export /mnt/test2 -o context=system_u:object_r:tmp_t:s0
mount.nfs: an incorrect mount option was specified
...with the printk in the ring buffer. Because we *might* eventually
walk down to /mnt/test1/export, the mount is denied due to this patch.
The second mount needs the pseudoroot superblock, but that's already
present with the wrong context.
OTOH, if we mount these in the reverse order, then both mounts work,
because the pseudoroot superblock created when mounting /export is
discarded once that mount is done. If we then however try to walk into
that directory, the automount fails for the similar reasons:
# cd /mnt/test1/scratch/
-bash: cd: /mnt/test1/scratch: Device or resource busy
The story I've gotten from the SELinux folks that I've talked to is that
this is desirable behavior. In SELinux-land, mounting the same data
under different contexts is wrong -- there can be only one.

Currently our client uses AUTH_UNIX for state management on Kerberos
NFS mounts in some cases. For example, if the first mount of a
server specifies "sec=sys," the SETCLIENTID operation is performed
with AUTH_UNIX. Subsequent mounts using stronger security flavors
can not change the flavor used for lease establishment. This might
be less security than an administrator was expecting.
Dave Noveck's migration issues draft recommends the use of an
integrity-protecting security flavor for the SETCLIENTID operation.
Let's ignore the mount's sec= setting and use krb5i as the default
security flavor for SETCLIENTID.
If our client can't establish a GSS context (eg. because it doesn't
have a keytab or the server doesn't support Kerberos) we fall back
to using AUTH_NULL. For an operation that requires a
machine credential (which never represents a particular user)
AUTH_NULL is as secure as AUTH_UNIX.

If the Linux NFS client receives an NFS4ERR_WRONGSEC error while
trying to look up an NFS server's root file handle, it retries the
lookup operation with various security flavors to see what flavor
the NFS server will accept for pseudo-fs access.
The list of flavors the client uses during retry consists only of
flavors that are currently registered in the kernel RPC client.
This list may not include any GSS pseudoflavors if auth_rpcgss.ko
has not yet been loaded.
Let's instead use a static list of security flavors that the NFS
standard requires the server to implement (RFC 3530bis, section
3.2.1). The RPC client should now be able to load support for
these dynamically; if not, they are skipped.
Recovery behavior here is prescribed by RFC 3530bis, section
15.33.5:
> For LOOKUPP, PUTROOTFH and PUTPUBFH, the client will be unable to
> use the SECINFO operation since SECINFO requires a current
> filehandle and none exist for these two [sic] operations. Therefore,
> the client must iterate through the security triples available at
> the client and reattempt the PUTROOTFH or PUTPUBFH operation. In
> the unfortunate event none of the MANDATORY security triples are
> supported by the client and server, the client SHOULD try using
> others that support integrity. Failing that, the client can try
> using AUTH_NONE, but because such forms lack integrity checks,
> this puts the client at risk.

Currently, the compound operation the Linux NFS client sends to the
server to confirm a client ID looks like this:
{ SETCLIENTID_CONFIRM; PUTROOTFH; GETATTR(lease_time) }
Once the lease is confirmed, it makes sense to know how long before
the client will have to renew it. And, performing these operations
in the same compound saves a round trip.
Unfortunately, this arrangement assumes that the security flavor
used for establishing a client ID can also be used to access the
server's pseudo-fs.
If the server requires a different security flavor to access its
pseudo-fs than it allowed for the client's SETCLIENTID operation,
the PUTROOTFH in this compound fails with NFS4ERR_WRONGSEC. Even
though the SETCLIENTID_CONFIRM succeeded, our client's trunking
detection logic interprets the failure of the compound as a failure
by the server to confirm the client ID.
As part of server trunking detection, the client then begins another
SETCLIENTID pass with the same nfs4_client_id. This fails with
NFS4ERR_CLID_INUSE because the first SETCLIENTID/SETCLIENTID_CONFIRM
already succeeded in confirming that client ID -- it was the
PUTROOTFH operation that caused the SETCLIENTID_CONFIRM compound to
fail.
To address this issue, separate the "establish client ID" step from
the "accessing the server's pseudo-fs root" step. The first access
of the server's pseudo-fs may require retrying the PUTROOTFH
operation with different security flavors. This access is done in
nfs4_proc_get_rootfh().
That leaves the matter of how to retrieve the server's lease time.
nfs4_proc_fsinfo() already retrieves the lease time value, though
none of its callers do anything with the retrieved value (nor do
they mark the lease as "renewed").
Note that NFSv4.1 state recovery invokes nfs4_proc_get_lease_time()
using the lease management security flavor. This may cause some
heartburn if that security flavor isn't the same as the security
flavor the server requires for accessing the pseudo-fs.

When rpc.gssd is not running, any NFS operation that needs to use a
GSS security flavor of course does not work.
If looking up a server's root file handle results in an
NFS4ERR_WRONGSEC, nfs4_find_root_sec() is called to try a bunch of
security flavors until one works or all reasonable flavors have
been tried. When rpc.gssd isn't running, this loop seems to fail
immediately after rpcauth_create() craps out on the first GSS
flavor.
When the rpcauth_create() call in nfs4_lookup_root_sec() fails
because rpc.gssd is not available, nfs4_lookup_root_sec()
unconditionally returns -EIO. This prevents nfs4_find_root_sec()
from retrying any other flavors; it drops out of its loop and fails
immediately.
Having nfs4_lookup_root_sec() return -EACCES instead allows
nfs4_find_root_sec() to try all flavors in its list.

A SECINFO reply may contain flavors whose kernel module is not
yet loaded by the client's kernel. A new RPC client API, called
rpcauth_get_pseudoflavor(), is introduced to do proper checking
for support of a security flavor.
When this API is invoked, the RPC client now tries to load the
module for each flavor first before performing the "is this
supported?" check. This means if a module is available on the
client, but has not been loaded yet, it will be loaded and
registered automatically when the SECINFO reply is processed.
The new API can take a full GSS tuple (OID, QoP, and service).
Previously only the OID and service were considered.
nfs_find_best_sec() is updated to verify all flavors requested in a
SECINFO reply, including AUTH_NULL and AUTH_UNIX. Previously these
two flavors were simply assumed to be supported without consulting
the RPC client.
Note that the replaced version of nfs_find_best_sec() can return
RPC_AUTH_MAXFLAVOR if the server returns a recognized OID but an
unsupported "service" value. nfs_find_best_sec() now returns
RPC_AUTH_UNIX in this case.

The NFSv4 SECINFO procedure returns a list of security flavors. Any
GSS flavor also has a GSS tuple containing an OID, a quality-of-
protection value, and a service value, which specifies a particular
GSS pseudoflavor.
For simplicity and efficiency, I'd like to return each GSS tuple
from the NFSv4 SECINFO XDR decoder and pass it straight into the RPC
client.

I had assumed that the only use of module aliases for filesystems
prior to "fs: Limit sys_mount to only request filesystem modules."
was in request_module. It turns out I was wrong. At least mkinitcpio
in Arch linux uses these aliases.
So readd the preexising aliases, to keep from breaking userspace.
Userspace eventually will have to follow and use the same aliases the
kernel does. So at some point we may be delete these aliases without
problems. However that day is not today.

Modify the request_module to prefix the file system type with "fs-"
and add aliases to all of the filesystems that can be built as modules
to match.
A common practice is to build all of the kernel code and leave code
that is not commonly needed as modules, with the result that many
users are exposed to any bug anywhere in the kernel.
Looking for filesystems with a fs- prefix limits the pool of possible
modules that can be loaded by mount to just filesystems trivially
making things safer with no real cost.
Using aliases means user space can control the policy of which
filesystem modules are auto-loaded by editing /etc/modprobe.d/*.conf
with blacklist and alias directives. Allowing simple, safe,
well understood work-arounds to known problematic software.
This also addresses a rare but unfortunate problem where the filesystem
name is not the same as it's module name and module auto-loading
would not work. While writing this patch I saw a handful of such
cases. The most significant being autofs that lives in the module
autofs4.
This is relevant to user namespaces because we can reach the request
module in get_fs_type() without having any special permissions, and
people get uncomfortable when a user specified string (in this case
the filesystem type) goes all of the way to request_module.
After having looked at this issue I don't think there is any
particular reason to perform any filtering or permission checks beyond
making it clear in the module request that we want a filesystem
module. The common pattern in the kernel is to call request_module()
without regards to the users permissions. In general all a filesystem
module does once loaded is call register_filesystem() and go to sleep.
Which means there is not much attack surface exposed by loading a
filesytem module unless the filesystem is mounted. In a user
namespace filesystems are not mounted unless .fs_flags = FS_USERNS_MOUNT,
which most filesystems do not set today.

week, and so here are the fixes for the bugs that were discovered:
- Don't allow NFS silly-renamed files to be deleted
- Don't start the retransmission timer when out of socket space
- Fix a couple of pnfs-related Oopses.
- Fix one more NFSv4 state recovery deadlock
- Don't loop forever when LAYOUTGET returns NFS4ERR_LAYOUTTRYLATER"
* tag 'nfs-for-3.9-2' of git://git.linux-nfs.org/projects/trondmy/linux-nfs:
SUNRPC: One line comment fix
NFSv4.1: LAYOUTGET EDELAY loops timeout to the MDS
SUNRPC: add call to get configured timeout
PNFS: set the default DS timeout to 60 seconds
NFSv4: Fix another open/open_recovery deadlock
nfs: don't allow nfs_find_actor to match inodes of the wrong type
NFSv4.1: Hold reference to layout hdr in layoutget
pnfs: fix resend_to_mds for directio
SUNRPC: Don't start the retransmission timer when out of socket space
NFS: Don't allow NFS silly-renamed files to be deleted, no signal

Pull nfsd changes from J Bruce Fields:
"Miscellaneous bugfixes, plus:
- An overhaul of the DRC cache by Jeff Layton. The main effect is
just to make it larger. This decreases the chances of intermittent
errors especially in the UDP case. But we'll need to watch for any
reports of performance regressions.
- Containerized nfsd: with some limitations, we now support
per-container nfs-service, thanks to extensive work from Stanislav
Kinsbursky over the last year."
Some notes about conflicts, since there were *two* non-data semantic
conflicts here:
- idr_remove_all() had been added by a memory leak fix, but has since
become deprecated since idr_destroy() does it for us now.
- xs_local_connect() had been added by this branch to make AF_LOCAL
connections be synchronous, but in the meantime Trond had changed the
calling convention in order to avoid a RCU dereference.
There were a couple of more obvious actual source-level conflicts due to
the hlist traversal changes and one just due to code changes next to
each other, but those were trivial.
* 'for-3.9' of git://linux-nfs.org/~bfields/linux: (49 commits)
SUNRPC: make AF_LOCAL connect synchronous

nfsd: enable NFSv4 state in containers
nfsd: disable usermode helper client tracker in container
nfsd: use proper net while reading "exports" file
nfsd: containerize NFSd filesystem
nfsd: fix comments on nfsd_cache_lookup
SUNRPC: move cache_detail->cache_request callback call to cache_read()
SUNRPC: remove "cache_request" argument in sunrpc_cache_pipe_upcall() function

nfsd4: free_stid can be static
nfsd: keep a checksum of the first 256 bytes of request
sunrpc: trim off trailing checksum before returning decrypted or integrity authenticated buffer
sunrpc: fix comment in struct xdr_buf definition

The client will currently try LAYOUTGETs forever if a server is returning
NFS4ERR_LAYOUTTRYLATER or NFS4ERR_RECALLCONFLICT - even if the client no
longer needs the layout (ie process killed, unmounted).
This patch uses the DS timeout value (module parameter 'dataserver_timeo'
via rpc layer) to set an upper limit of how long the client tries LATOUTGETs
in this situation. Once the timeout is reached, IO is redirected to the MDS.
This also changes how the client checks if a layout is on the clp list
to avoid a double list_add.

The client should have 60 second default timeouts for DS operations, not 6
seconds.
NFS4_DEF_DS_TIMEO is used as "timeout in tenths of a second" in
nfs_init_timeout_values (and is not used anywhere else).
This matches up with the description of the module param dataserver_timeo.
