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.

- Use PRIV_NFS_DAEMON in the NFS server.
- In the NFS client, move the privilege check from nfslockdans(), which
occurs every time a write is performed on /dev/nfslock, and instead do it
in nfslock_open() just once. This allows us to avoid checking the saved
uid for root, and just use the effective on open. Use PRIV_NFS_LOCKD.

More complex merging of socket and socket buffer locking to

Add two additional pairs of assertions, one at the end of the NFS
server event loop, and one one exit from the NFS daemon, that
assert that if debug.mpsafenet is enabled, Giant is not held, and
that if it is not enabled, Giant will be held. This is intended
to support debugging scenarios where Giant is "leaked" during NFS
processing.
mechanism so that early processing on mbufs can be performed before
a context switch to the NFS server threads. Because of this, if
the socket code is running without Giant, the NFS server also needs
to be able to run the upcall code without relying on the presence on
Giant. This change modifies the NFS server to run using a "giant
code lock" covering operation of the whole subsystem. Work is in
progress to move to data-based locking as part of the NFSv4 server
changes.
Introduce an NFS server subsystem lock, 'nfsd_mtx', and a set of
macros to operate on the lock:
NFSD_LOCK_ASSERT() Assert nfsd_mtx owned by current thread
NFSD_UNLOCK_ASSERT() Assert nfsd_mtx not owned by current thread
NFSD_LOCK_DONTCARE() Advisory: this function doesn't care
NFSD_LOCK() Lock nfsd_mtx
NFSD_UNLOCK() Unlock nfsd_mtx
Constify a number of global variables/structures in the NFS server
code, as they are not modified and contain constants only:
nfsrvv2_procid nfsrv_nfsv3_procid nonidempotent
nfsv2_repstat nfsv2_type nfsrv_nfsv3_procid
nfsrvv2_procid nfsrv_v2errmap nfsv3err_null
nfsv3err_getattr nfsv3err_setattr nfsv3err_lookup
nfsv3err_access nfsv3err_readlink nfsv3err_read
nfsv3err_write nfsv3err_create nfsv3err_mkdir

nfsv3err_readdir nfsv3err_readdirplus nfsv3err_fsstat
nfsv3err_fsinfo nfsv3err_pathconf nfsv3err_commit
nfsrv_v3errmap
There are additional structures that should be constified but due
to their being passed into general purpose functions without const
arguments, I have not yet converted.
In general, acquire nfsd_mtx when accessing any of the global NFS
structures, including struct nfssvc_sock, struct nfsd, struct
nfsrv_descript.
Release nfsd_mtx whenever calling into VFS, and acquire Giant for
calls into VFS. Giant is not required for any part of the
operation of the NFS server with the exception of calls into VFS.
Giant will never by acquired in the upcall code path. However, it
may operate entirely covered by Giant, or not. If debug.mpsafenet
is set to 0, the system calls will acquire Giant across all
operations, and the upcall will assert Giant. As such, by default,
this enables locking and allows us to test assertions, but should not
cause any substantial new amount of code to be run without Giant.
Bugs should manifest in the form of lock assertion failures for now.
This approach is similar (but not identical) to modifications to the
BSD/OS NFS server code snapshot provided by BSDi as part of their
SMPng snapshot. The strategy is almost the same (single lock over
the NFS server), but differs in the following ways:
- Our NFS client and server code bases don't overlap, which means
both fewer bugs and easier locking (thanks Peter!). Also means
NFSD_*() as opposed to NFS_*().
- We make broad use of assertions, whereas the BSD/OS code does not.
- Made slightly different choices about how to handle macros building
packets but operating with side effects.
- We acquire Giant only when entering VFS from the NFS server daemon
threads.
- Serious bugs in BSD/OS implementation corrected -- the snapshot we
received was clearly a work in progress.
