file via NFS. Specifically, to satisfy close-to-open-consistency, the NFS
client always performs at least one RPC on a file during an open(2) to see
if the file has changed. Normally this RPC is an ACCESS or GETATTR RPC
that is forced by flushing a file's attribute cache during nfs_open() and
then requesting new attributes. However, if the file is noticed to be
stale during nfs_open(), the only recourse is to fail the open(2) call
with ESTALE. On the other hand, if the ACCESS or GETATTR RPC is sent
during nfs_lookup(), then the NFS client can fall back to a LOOKUP RPC to
obtain the new file handle in the case that a file has been replaced.
This change causes the NFS client to flush the attribute cache during
nfs_lookup() when validating a name cache hit if the attributes fetched
during nfs_lookup() can be reused in nfs_open(). This allows the client
to open a replaced file via the new file handle the first time that it
notices a replaced file rather than failing with ESTALE in some cases.

Specifically, clients only trust -ve cache entries while the directory
remains unchanged and discard any -ve cache entries for a directory when
they notice that the modification time of a directory entry changes. The
race involves two concurrent lookups as follows:
- Thread A does a lookup for file 'foo' which sends a lookup RPC to the
server. The lookup fails and the server replies.
- The 'foo' file is created (either by the same client or a different
client) updating the modification time on the parent directory of 'foo'.
- Thread B does a lookup for a different file 'bar' which updates the
cached attributes of the parent directory of 'foo' to reflect the new
modification time after 'foo' was created.
- Thread A finally resumes execution to parse the reply from the NFS
server. It adds a -ve cache entry and sets the cached value of the
directory's modification time that is used for invalidating -ve cached
lookups to the new modification time set by thread B.
At this point, future lookups of 'foo' will honor the -ve cached entry
until the cached entry is pushed out of the name cache's LRU or the
modification time of the parent directory is changed again by some other
change. The fix is to read the directory's modification time before
sending the lookup RPC and use that cached modification time when setting
the directory's cached modification time. Also, we do not add a -ve cache
entry if another thread has added -ve cache entry that set the directory's
cached modification time to a newer value than the value we read before
sending the lookup RPC.

Each virtualized global variable exists as a "reference copy", and also
once per virtual network stack. Virtualized global variables are
tagged at compile-time, placing the in a special linker set, which is
loaded into a contiguous region of kernel memory. Virtualized global
variables in the base kernel are linked as normal, but those in modules
are copied and relocated to a reserved portion of the kernel's vnet
region with the help of a the kernel linker.
Virtualized global variables exist in per-vnet memory set up when the
network stack instance is created, and are initialized statically from
the reference copy. Run-time access occurs via an accessor macro, which
converts from the current vnet and requested symbol to a per-vnet
address. When "options VIMAGE" is not compiled into the kernel, normal
global ELF symbols will be used instead and indirection is avoided.
This change restores static initialization for network stack global
variables, restores support for non-global symbols and types, eliminates
the need for many subsystem constructors, eliminates large per-subsystem

- When a socket upcall returns SU_ISCONNECTED, the upcall is cleared from

- All this means that accept filters should now return SU_ISCONNECTED

The curthread->td_vnet (aka curvnet) variable's purpose is to be an

context from any other source, such as by looking at mbuf's
m->m_pkthdr.rcvif->if_vnet, sockets's so->so_vnet etc. Moreover, so
far curvnet has turned out to be an invaluable consistency checking
aid: it helps to catch cases when sockets, ifnets or any other
vnet-aware structures may have leaked from one vnet to another.
The exact placement of the CURVNET_SET() / CURVNET_RESTORE() macros
was a result of an empirical iterative process, whith an aim to
reduce recursions on CURVNET_SET() to a minimum, while still reducing
the scope of CURVNET_SET() to networking only operations - the
alternative would be calling CURVNET_SET() on each system call entry.
In general, curvnet has to be set in three typicall cases: when
processing socket-related requests from userspace or from within the
kernel; when processing inbound traffic flowing from device drivers

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.

- Implement real draining for vfs consumers by not relying on the
mnt_lock and using instead a refcount in order to keep track of lock
requesters.
- Due to the change above, remove the mnt_lock lockmgr because it is now
useless.
- Due to the change above, vfs_busy() is no more linked to a lockmgr.
Change so its KPI by removing the interlock argument and defining 2 new
flags for it: MBF_NOWAIT which basically replaces the LK_NOWAIT of the
old version (which was unlinked from the lockmgr alredy) and
MBF_MNTLSTLOCK which provides the ability to drop the mountlist_mtx
once the mnt interlock is held (ability still desired by most consumers).
- The stub used into vfs_mount_destroy(), that allows to override the
mnt_ref if running for more than 3 seconds, make it totally useless.
Remove it as it was thought to work into older versions.
If a problem of "refcount held never going away" should appear, we will
need to fix properly instead than trust on such hackish solution.
- Fix a bug where returning (with an error) from dounmount() was still
leaving the MNTK_MWAIT flag on even if it the waiters were actually
woken up. Just a place in vfs_mount_destroy() is left because it is
going to recycle the structure in any case, so it doesn't matter.
- Remove the markercnt refcount as it is useless.
This patch modifies VFS ABI and breaks KPI for vfs_busy() so manpages and
__FreeBSD_version will be modified accordingly.
