Add the new kernel-mode NFS Lock Manager. To use it instead of the user-mode lock manager, build a kernel with the NFSLOCKD option and add '-k' to 'rpc_lockd_flags' in rc.conf. Highlights include: * Thread-safe kernel RPC client - many threads can use the same RPC client handle safely with replies being de-multiplexed at the socket upcall (typically driven directly by the NIC interrupt) and handed off to whichever thread matches the reply. For UDP sockets, many RPC clients can share the same socket. This allows the use of a single privileged UDP port number to talk to an arbitrary number of remote hosts. * Single-threaded kernel RPC server. Adding support for multi-threaded server would be relatively straightforward and would follow approximately the Solaris KPI. A single thread should be sufficient for the NLM since it should rarely block in normal operation. * Kernel mode NLM server supporting cancel requests and granted callbacks. I've tested the NLM server reasonably extensively - it passes both my own tests and the NFS Connectathon locking tests running on Solaris, Mac OS X and Ubuntu Linux. * Userland NLM client supported. While the NLM server doesn't have support for the local NFS client's locking needs, it does have to field async replies and granted callbacks from remote NLMs that the local client has contacted. We relay these replies to the userland rpc.lockd over a local domain RPC socket. * Robust deadlock detection for the local lock manager. In particular it will detect deadlocks caused by a lock request that covers more than one blocking request. As required by the NLM protocol, all deadlock detection happens synchronously - a user is guaranteed that if a lock request isn't rejected immediately, the lock will eventually be granted. The old system allowed for a 'deferred deadlock' condition where a blocked lock request could wake up and find that some other deadlock-causing lock owner had beaten them to the lock. * Since both local and remote locks are managed by the same kernel locking code, local and remote processes can safely use file locks for mutual exclusion. Local processes have no fairness advantage compared to remote processes when contending to lock a region that has just been unlocked - the local lock manager enforces a strict first-come first-served model for both local and remote lockers.

Implement support for RPCSEC_GSS authentication to both the NFS client and server. This replaces the RPC implementation of the NFS client and server with the newer RPC implementation originally developed (actually ported from the userland sunrpc code) to support the NFS Lock Manager. I have tested this code extensively and I believe it is stable and that performance is at least equal to the legacy RPC implementation. The NFS code currently contains support for both the new RPC implementation and the older legacy implementation inherited from the original NFS codebase. The default is to use the new implementation - add the NFS_LEGACYRPC option to fall back to the old code. When I merge this support back to RELENG_7, I will probably change this so that users have to 'opt in' to get the new code. To use RPCSEC_GSS on either client or server, you must build a kernel which includes the KGSSAPI option and the crypto device. On the userland side, you must build at least a new libc, mountd, mount_nfs and gssd. You must install new versions of /etc/rc.d/gssd and /etc/rc.d/nfsd and add 'gssd_enable=YES' to /etc/rc.conf. As long as gssd is running, you should be able to mount an NFS filesystem from a server that requires RPCSEC_GSS authentication. The mount itself can happen without any kerberos credentials but all access to the filesystem will be denied unless the accessing user has a valid ticket file in the standard place (/tmp/krb5cc_<uid>). There is currently no support for situations where the ticket file is in a different place, such as when the user logged in via SSH and has delegated credentials from that login. This restriction is also present in Solaris and Linux. In theory, we could improve this in future, possibly using Brooks Davis' implementation of variant symlinks. Supporting RPCSEC_GSS on a server is nearly as simple. You must create service creds for the server in the form 'nfs/<fqdn>@<REALM>' and install them in /etc/krb5.keytab. The standard heimdal utility ktutil makes this fairly easy. After the service creds have been created, you can add a '-sec=krb5' option to /etc/exports and restart both mountd and nfsd. The only other difference an administrator should notice is that nfsd doesn't fork to create service threads any more. In normal operation, there will be two nfsd processes, one in userland waiting for TCP connections and one in the kernel handling requests. The latter process will create as many kthreads as required - these should be visible via 'top -H'. The code has some support for varying the number of service threads according to load but initially at least, nfsd uses a fixed number of threads according to the value supplied to its '-n' option.
