w.r.t. a Linux NFS client doing a krb5 NFS mount against the
FreeBSD server. We determined this was a Linux bug:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-nfs/msg32466.html, however
the mount failed to work, because the Destroy operation with a
bogus encrypted checksum destroyed the authenticator handle.
This patch changes the rpcsec_gss code so that it doesn't
Destroy the authenticator handle for this case and, as such,
the Linux mount will work.

heading "kernel panics with RPCSEC_GSS" appears to be caused by a
corrupted tailq list for the client structure. Looking at the code, calls
to the function svc_rpc_gss_forget_client() were done in an SMP unsafe
manner, with the svc_rpc_gss_lock only being acquired in the function
and not before it. As such, when multiple threads called
svc_rpc_gss_forget_client() concurrently, it could try and remove the
same client structure from the tailq lists multiple times.
The patch fixes this by moving the critical code into a separate
function called svc_rpc_gss_forget_client_locked(), which must be
called with the lock held. For the one case where the caller would
have no interest in the lock, svc_rpc_gss_forget_client() was retained,
but a loop was added to check that the client structure is still in
the tailq lists before removing it, to make it safe for multiple
concurrent calls.

call could get hung sleeping on "gsssta" if the credentials for a user
that had been accessing the mount point have expired. This happened
because rpc_gss_destroy_context() would end up calling itself when the
"destroy context" RPC was attempted, trying to refresh the credentials.
This patch just checks for this case in rpc_gss_refresh() and returns
without attempting the refresh, which avoids the recursive call to
rpc_gss_destroy_context() and the subsequent hang.

side fails, the entry in the cache is left with no valid context
(gd_ctx == GSS_C_NO_CONTEXT). As such, subsequent hits on the cache
will result in persistent authentication failure, even after the user has
done a kinit or similar and acquired a new valid TGT. This patch adds a test
for that case upon a cache hit and calls rpc_gss_init() to make another
attempt at getting valid credentials. It also moves the setting of gc_proc
to before the import of the principal name to ensure that, if that case
fails, it will be detected as a failure after going to "out:".

NGROUPS_MAX, eliminate ABI dependencies on them, and raise the to 1024
and 1023 respectively. (Previously they were equal, but under a close
reading of POSIX, NGROUPS_MAX was defined to be too large by 1 since it
is the number of supplemental groups, not total number of groups.)
The bulk of the change consists of converting the struct ucred member
cr_groups from a static array to a pointer. Do the equivalent in
kinfo_proc.
Introduce new interfaces crcopysafe() and crsetgroups() for duplicating
a process credential before modifying it and for setting group lists
respectively. Both interfaces take care for the details of allocating
groups array. crsetgroups() takes care of truncating the group list
to the current maximum (NGROUPS) if necessary. In the future,
crsetgroups() may be responsible for insuring invariants such as sorting
the supplemental groups to allow groupmember() to be implemented as a
binary search.
Because we can not change struct xucred without breaking application
ABIs, we leave it alone and introduce a new XU_NGROUPS value which is
always 16 and is to be used or NGRPS as appropriate for things such as
NFS which need to use no more than 16 groups. When feasible, truncate
the group list rather than generating an error.
Minor changes:
- Reduce the number of hand rolled versions of groupmember().
- Do not assign to both cr_gid and cr_groups[0].
- Modify ipfw to cache ucreds instead of part of their contents since
they are immutable once referenced by more than one entity.

of ci_hostid to "unsigned long" so that it matches what is returned by
getcredhostid(). Although "struct svc_rpc_gss_clientid" goes on the wire
during RPCSEC_GSS, it is just a variable # of opaque bytes to the client,
so it doesn't matter how much storage ci_hostid uses.

server would crash because the Solaris10 client would attempt to use
Sun's NFSACL protocol, which FreeBSD doesn't support. When the server
generated the error reply via svcerr_noprog(), it would cause a crash
because it would try and wrap a NULL reply. According to RFC2203, no
wrapping is required for error cases. This one line change avoids
wrapping of NULL replies.

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.
