This change adds two new tunables, allowing to control serialization for
read and write NFS requests separately. It does not change the default
behavior since there are too many factors to consider, but gives additional
space for further experiments and tuning.
The main motivation for this change is very low write speed in case of ZFS
with sync=always or when NFS clients requests sychronous operation, when
every separate request has to be written/flushed to ZIL, and requests are
processed one at a time. Setting vfs.nfsd.fha.write=0 in that case allows
to increase ZIL throughput by several times by coalescing writes and cache
flushes. There is a worry that doing it may increase data fragmentation
on disks, but I suppose it should not happen for pool with SLOG.

vfs.nfsd.nfsd_enable_stringtouid, but in reverse - when set to 1,
it forces the NFSv4 server to return numeric UIDs and GIDs instead
of "user@domain" strings. This helps with clients that can't
translate returned identifiers, eg when rerooting.
The same can be achieved by just never running nfsuserd(8),
but the sysctl is useful to toggle the behaviour back and forth
without rebooting.

Extend the ino_t, dev_t, nlink_t types to 64-bit ints. Modify
struct dirent layout to add d_off, increase the size of d_fileno

the required alignment. Increase struct statfs f_mntfromname[] and
f_mntonname[] array length MNAMELEN to 1024.
ABI breakage is mitigated by providing compatibility using versioned
symbols, ingenious use of the existing padding in structures, and
by employing other tricks. Unfortunately, not everything can be
fixed, especially outside the base system. For instance, third-party
APIs which pass struct stat around are broken in backward and
forward incompatible ways.
Kinfo sysctl MIBs ABI is changed in backward-compatible way, but
there is no general mechanism to handle other sysctl MIBS which
return structures where the layout has changed. It was considered
that the breakage is either in the management interfaces, where we
usually allow ABI slip, or is not important.
Struct xvnode changed layout, no compat shims are provided.
For struct xtty, dev_t tty device member was reduced to uint32_t.
It was decided that keeping ABI compat in this case is more useful
than reporting 64-bit dev_t, for the sake of pstat.
Update note: strictly follow the instructions in UPDATING. Build
and install the new kernel with COMPAT_FREEBSD11 option enabled,
then reboot, and only then install new world.

The NFSv4 RFCs give a server the option of allowing the use of an open
stateid for write access to be used for a Read operation.
This patch enables this by default and adds a sysctl to disable it,
for anyone who does not want this capability.
Allowing this is particularily useful for a pNFS Data Server (DS), since
they are not permitted to allow the use of special stateids.
Discovered during recent testing of the pNFS server under development.

The FreeBSD NFSv4 server did not set the attribute bit for TimeAccess in
the reply to an Open with exclusive_create, as required by the RFCs.
(This is required since the FreeBSD NFS server stores the create_verifier
in the va_atime attribute.)
As such, the Linux NFSv4 client did not set the TimeAccess (atime) in
the Setattr done in an RPC after the one with the Open/exclusive_create.
This patch fixes the server to set the TimeAccess bit in the reply.
I believe that storing the create_verifier in an extended attribute for
file systems that support extended attributes might be a good idea,
but I will wait for a discussion of this on the freebsd-fs@ email list
before considering committing a patch to do this.

Thread might create a condition for delayed SU cleanup, which creates
a reference to the mount point in td_su, but exit without returning
through userret(), e.g. when terminating due to single-threading or
process exit. In this case, td_su reference is not dropped and mount
point cannot be freed.
Handle the situation by clearing td_su also in the thread destructor
and in exit1(). softdep_ast_cleanup() has to receive the thread as

If dotdot lookup does not escape from the file descriptor passed as

Dotdot lookups are enabled by sysctl vfs.lookup_cap_dotdot, currently

Disallow non-local filesystems for dotdot, since remote server might

delegations enabled and the Linux NFSv4.1 client was reported in
reviews.freebsd.org/D7891.
I believe that the FreeBSD server behaviour conforms to the RFC and that
the Linux client has a bug. Therefore, I do not think the proposed patch
is appropriate. When nfsrv_writedelegifpos is non-zero, the FreeBSD
server will issue a write delegation for a read open if possible.
The Linux client then erroneously assumes that the credentials used for
the read open can write the file.
This patch reverses the default value for nfsrv_writedelegifpos to 0 so
that the default behaviour is Linux compatible and adds a sysctl that can
be used to set nfsrv_writedelegifpos.
This change should only affect users that are mounting a FreeBSD server
with delegations enabled (they are not enabled by default) with a Linux
NFSv4.1 client mount.

As such, when mountd attempts to suspend the nfsd threads, it

The ordering of acquisition of the state and session mutexes was
reversed in two cases executed when an NFSv4.1 client created/freed

This can only occur for NFSv4.1 mounts, since the others do not

This was detected while testing the pNFS server/client where the

option that will be added to the nfsuserd daemon in a future
commit. It modifies the cache used by NFSv4 for name<-->id
translation (both username/uid and group/gid) to support this.
When "-manage-gids" is set, the server looks up each uid
for the RPC and uses the list of groups cached in the server
instead of the list of groups provided in the RPC request.
The cached group list is acquired for the cache by the nfsuserd
daemon via getgrouplist(3).
This avoids the 16 groups limit for the list in the RPC request.
Since the cache is now used for every RPC when "-manage-gids"
is enabled, the code also modifies the cache to use a separate
mutex for each hash list instead of a single global mutex.

However, for NFSv4.1, the server also retained a reference to the xprt

svcpool_destroy() to not call SVC_DESTROY() for the xprt and allowed
a socket upcall to occur after the mutexes in the svcpool were destroyed,
causing a crash.
This patch fixes the code so that the backchannel xprt structure is

critical system resources, like vnode locks. Attempt to wait while
the per-mount softupdate thread cleans up the backlog may deadlock,
because the thread might need to lock the same vnode which is owned by
the waiting thread.
Instead of synchronously waiting for the worker, perform the worker'
tickle and pause until the backlog is cleaned, at the safe point
during return from kernel to usermode. A new ast request to call
softdep_ast_cleanup() is created, the SU code now only checks the size
of queue and schedules ast.
There is no ast delivery for the kernel threads, so they are exempted
from the mechanism, except NFS daemon threads. NFS server loop
explicitely checks for the request, and informs the schedule_cleanup()
that it is capable of handling the requests by the process P2_AST_SU
flag. This is needed because nfsd may be the sole cause of the SU
workqueue overflow. But, to not cause nsfd to spawn additional
