commit 6260d9a56ab352b54891ec66ab0eced57d55abc6 upstream.
Ensure that a client cannot specify a WRITE range that falls in a
byte range outside what the kernel's internal types (such as loff_t,
which is signed) can represent. The kiocb iterators, invoked in
nfsd_vfs_write(), should properly limit write operations to within
the underlying file system's s_maxbytes.

The original intent was presumably to reduce code duplication. The
trade-off was:
- No support for an NFSD proc function returning a non-success
RPC accept_stat value.
- No support for void NFS replies to non-NULL procedures.
- Everyone pays for the deduplication with a few extra conditional
branches in a hot path.
In addition, nfsd_dispatch() leaves *statp uninitialized in the
success path, unlike svc_generic_dispatch().
Address all of these problems by moving the logic for encoding
the NFS status code into the NFS XDR encoders themselves. Then
update the NFS .pc_func methods to return an RPC accept_stat
value.

Currently, the knfsd server assumes that a short read indicates an
end of file. That assumption is incorrect. The short read means that
either we've hit the end of file, or we've hit a read error.
In the case of a read error, the client may want to retry (as per the
implementation recommendations in RFC1813 and RFC7530), but currently it
is being told that it hit an eof.
Move the code to detect eof from version specific code into the generic
nfsd read.
Report eof only in the two following cases:
1) read() returns a zero length short read with no error.
2) the offset+length of the read is >= the file size.

f875a79 nfsd: allow nfsv3 readdir request to be larger.
nfsv3 readdir request size can be larger than PAGE_SIZE. So if the
directory been read is large enough, we can use multiple pages
in rq_respages. Update buffer count and page pointers like we do
in readdirplus to make this happen.
Now listing a directory within 3000 files will panic because we
are counting in a wrong way and would write on random page.

nfsd currently reports the NFSv3 dtpref FSINFO parameter
to be PAGE_SIZE, so NFS clients will typically ask for one
page of directory entries at a time. This is needlessly restrictive
as nfsd can handle larger replies easily.
Also, a READDIR request (but not a READDIRPLUS request) has the count
size clipped to PAGE_SIE, again unnecessary.
This patch lifts these limits so that larger readdir requests can be
used.

If the result of an NFSv3 readdir{,plus} request results in the
"offset" on one entry having to be split across 2 pages, and is sized
so that the next directory entry doesn't fit in the requested size,
then memory corruption can happen.
When encode_entry() is called after encoding the last entry that fits,
it notices that ->offset and ->offset1 are set, and so stores the
offset value in the two pages as required. It clears ->offset1 but
*does not* clear ->offset.
Normally this omission doesn't matter as encode_entry_baggage() will
be called, and will set ->offset to a suitable value (not on a page
boundary).
But in the case where cd->buflen < elen and nfserr_toosmall is
returned, ->offset is not reset.
This means that nfsd3proc_readdirplus will see ->offset with a value 4
bytes before the end of a page, and ->offset1 set to NULL.
It will try to write 8bytes to ->offset.
If we are lucky, the next page will be read-only, and the system will

If we are unlucky, some innocent page will have the first 4 bytes

nfsd3proc_readdir() doesn't even check for ->offset1, it just blindly
writes 8 bytes to the offset wherever it is.
Fix this by clearing ->offset after it is used, and copying the
->offset handling code from nfsd3_proc_readdirplus into
nfsd3_proc_readdir.

I've given up on the idea of zero-copy handling of SYMLINK on the
server side. This is because the Linux VFS symlink API requires the
symlink pathname to be in a NUL-terminated kmalloc'd buffer. The
NUL-termination is going to be problematic (watching out for
landing on a page boundary and dealing with a 4096-byte pathname).
I don't believe that SYMLINK creation is on a performance path or is
requested frequently enough that it will cause noticeable CPU cache
pollution due to data copies.
There will be two places where a transport callout will be necessary
to fill in the rqstp: one will be in the svc_fill_symlink_pathname()
helper that is used by NFSv2 and NFSv3, and the other will be in
nfsd4_decode_create().

fill_in_write_vector() is nearly the same logic as
svc_fill_write_vector(), but there are a few differences so that
the former can handle multiple WRITE payloads in a single COMPOUND.
svc_fill_write_vector() can be adjusted so that it can be used in
the NFSv4 WRITE code path too. Instead of assuming the pages are
coming from rq_args.pages, have the caller pass in the page list.
The immediate benefit is a reduction of code duplication. It also
prevents the NFSv4 WRITE decoder from passing an empty vector
element when the transport has provided the payload in the xdr_buf's
page array.

Move common code in NFSD's legacy SYMLINK decoders into a helper.
The immediate benefits include:
- one fewer data copies on transports that support DDP
- consistent error checking across all versions
- reduction of code duplication
- support for both legal forms of SYMLINK requests on RDMA
transports for all versions of NFS (in particular, NFSv2, for
completeness)
In the long term, this helper is an appropriate spot to perform a
per-transport call-out to fill the pathname argument using, say,
RDMA Reads.
Filling the pathname in the proc function also means that eventually
the incoming filehandle can be interpreted so that filesystem-
specific memory can be allocated as a sink for the pathname
argument, rather than using anonymous pages.

Move common code in NFSD's legacy NFS WRITE decoders into a helper.
The immediate benefit is reduction of code duplication and some nice
micro-optimizations (see below).
In the long term, this helper can perform a per-transport call-out
to fill the rq_vec (say, using RDMA Reads).
The legacy WRITE decoders and procs are changed to work like NFSv4,
which constructs the rq_vec just before it is about to call
vfs_writev.
Why? Calling a transport call-out from the proc instead of the XDR
decoder means that the incoming FH can be resolved to a particular
filesystem and file. This would allow pages from the backing file to
be presented to the transport to be filled, rather than presenting
anonymous pages and copying or flipping them into the file's page
cache later.
I also prefer using the pages in rq_arg.pages, instead of pulling
the data pages directly out of the rqstp::rq_pages array. This is
currently the way the NFSv3 write decoder works, but the other two
do not seem to take this approach. Fixing this removes the only
reference to rq_pages found in NFSD, eliminating an NFSD assumption
about how transports use the pages in rq_pages.
Lastly, avoid setting up the first element of rq_vec as a zero-
length buffer. This happens with an RDMA transport when a normal
Read chunk is present because the data payload is in rq_arg's
page list (none of it is in the head buffer).

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

One of our customer's application only needs file names, not file
attributes. With directories having 10K+ inodes (assuming buffer cache
has directory blocks cached having file names, but inode cache is
limited and hence need eviction of older cached inodes), older inodes
are evicted periodically. So if they keep on doing readdir(2) from NSF
client on multiple directories, some directory's files are periodically
removed from inode cache and hence new readdir(2) on same directory
requires disk access to bring back inodes again to inode cache.
As READDIRPLUS request fetches attributes also, doing getattr on each
file on server, it causes unnecessary disk accesses. If READDIRPLUS on
NFS client is returned with -ENOTSUPP, NFS client uses READDIR request
which just gets the names of the files in a directory, not attributes,
hence avoiding disk accesses on server.
There's already a corresponding client-side mount option, but an export
option reduces the need for configuration across multiple clients.
This flag affects NFSv3 only. If it turns out it's needed for NFSv4 as
well then we may have to figure out how to extend the behavior to NFSv4,
but it's not currently obvious how to do that.

That means callers don't have to null-terminate, but they *do* have to

That's a bit subtle, and the NFSv4 code actually got this wrong.

Some well-known NFSv3 clients drop their directory entry caches when
they receive replies with no WCC data. Without this data, they
employ extra READ, LOOKUP, and GETATTR requests to ensure their
directory entry caches are up to date, causing performance to suffer
needlessly.
In order to return WCC data, our server has to have both the pre-op
and the post-op attribute data on hand when a reply is XDR encoded.
The pre-op data is filled in when the incoming fh is locked, and the
post-op data is filled in when the fh is unlocked.
Unfortunately, for REMOVE, RMDIR, MKNOD, and MKDIR, the directory fh
is not unlocked until well after the reply has been XDR encoded. This
means that encode_wcc_data() does not have wcc_data for the parent
directory, so none is returned to the client after these operations
complete.
By unlocking the parent directory fh immediately after the internal
operations for each NFS procedure is complete, the post-op data is
filled in before XDR encoding starts, so it can be returned to the
client properly.

If a filesystem being written to via NFS returns a short write count
(as opposed to an error) to nfsd, nfsd treats that as a success for
the entire write, rather than the short count that actually succeeded.
For example, given a 8192 byte write, if the underlying filesystem
only writes 4096 bytes, nfsd will ack back to the nfs client that all
8192 bytes were written. The nfs client does have retry logic for
short writes, but this is never called as the client is told the
complete write succeeded.
There are probably other ways it could happen, but in my case it
happened with a fuse (filesystem in userspace) filesystem which can
rather easily have a partial write.

RFC 2623 section 2.3.2 permits the server to bypass gss authentication

In the case of a client that doesn't have some form of credentials
available to it on boot, this allows it to perform the mount unattended.
(Presumably real file access won't be needed until a user with
credentials logs in.)
Being slightly more lenient allows lots of old clients to access
krb5-only exports, with the only loss being a small amount of
information leaked about the root directory of the export.
This affects only v2 and v3; v4 still requires authentication for all
