commit cab92c19821a814ecf5a5279e2699bf28e66caee upstream.

The check for whether or not we sent an RPC call in nfs40_sequence_done
is insufficient to decide whether or not we are holding a session slot,
and thus should not be used to decide when to free that slot.

This patch replaces the RPC_WAS_SENT() test with the correct test for
whether or not slot == NULL.

<title>pnfs: Proper delay for NFS4ERR_RECALLCONFLICT in layout_get_done</title>

commit ed7e5423014ad89720fcf315c0b73f2c5d0c7bd2 upstream.

An NFS4ERR_RECALLCONFLICT is returned by server from a GET_LAYOUT
only when a Server Sent a RECALL do to that GET_LAYOUT, or
the RECALL and GET_LAYOUT crossed on the wire.
In any way this means we want to wait at most until in-flight IO
is finished and the RECALL can be satisfied.

So a proper wait here is more like 1/10 of a second, not 15 seconds
like we have now. In case of a server bug we delay exponentially
longer on each retry.

Current code totally craps out performance of very large files on
most pnfs-objects layouts, because of how the map changes when the
file has grown into the next raid group.

[Stable: This will patch back to 3.9. If there are earlier still
 maintained trees, please tell me I'll send a patch]

If clp is new (cl_count = 1) and it matches another client in
nfs4_discover_server_trunking, the nfs_put_client will free clp before

commit 64590daa9e0dfb3aad89e3ab9230683b76211d5b upstream.

Both nfs41_walk_client_list and nfs40_walk_client_list expect the
'status' variable to be set to the value -NFS4ERR_STALE_CLIENTID
if the loop fails to find a match.
The problem is that the 'pos-&gt;cl_cons_state &gt; NFS_CS_READY' changes
the value of 'status', and sets it either to the value '0' (which
indicates success), or to the value EINTR.

<title>nfs: always make sure page is up-to-date before extending a write to cover the entire page</title>

commit 263b4509ec4d47e0da3e753f85a39ea12d1eff24 upstream.

We should always make sure the cached page is up-to-date when we're
determining whether we can extend a write to cover the full page -- even
if we've received a write delegation from the server.

Commit c7559663 added logic to skip this check if we have a write
delegation, which can lead to data corruption such as the following
scenario if client B receives a write delegation from the NFS server:

Client A:
    # echo 123456789 &gt; /mnt/file

Client B:
    # echo abcdefghi &gt;&gt; /mnt/file
    # cat /mnt/file
    0�D0�abcdefghi

Just because we hold a write delegation doesn't mean that we've read in
the entire page contents.

commit 78b19bae0813bd6f921ca58490196abd101297bd upstream.

Don't check for -NFS4ERR_NOTSUPP, it's already been mapped to -ENOTSUPP
by nfs4_stat_to_errno.

This allows the client to mount v4.1 servers that don't support
SECINFO_NO_NAME by falling back to the "guess and check" method of
nfs4_find_root_sec.

commit c7848f69ec4a8c03732cde5c949bd2aa711a9f4b upstream.

decode_op_hdr() cannot distinguish between an XDR decoding error and
the perfectly valid errorcode NFS4ERR_IO. This is normally not a
problem, but for the particular case of OPEN, we need to be able
to increment the NFSv4 open sequence id when the server returns
a valid response.

commit aad560b7f63b495f48a7232fd086c5913a676e6f upstream.

At IO preparation we calculate the max pages at each device and
allocate a BIO per device of that size. The calculation was wrong
on some unaligned corner cases offset/length combination and would
make prepare return with -ENOMEM. This would be bad for pnfs-objects
that would in that case IO through MDS. And fatal for exofs were it
would fail writes with EIO.

Fix it by doing the proper math, that will work in all cases. (I
ran a test with all possible offset/length combinations this time
round).

Also when reading we do not need to allocate for the parity units
since we jump over them.

Also lower the max_io_length to take into account the parity pages
so not to allocate BIOs bigger than PAGE_SIZE

Commit d5dc77bfeeab ("consolidate compat lookup_dcookie()") coverted all
architectures to the new compat_sys_lookup_dcookie() syscall.

The "len" paramater of the new compat syscall must have the type
compat_size_t in order to enforce zero extension for architectures where
the ABI requires that the caller of a function performed zero and/or
sign extension to 64 bit of all parameters.

<content type='text'>
commit dfd948e32af2e7b28bcd7a490c0a30d4b8df2a36 upstream.

We got a report that the pwritev syscall does not work correctly in
compat mode on s390.

It turned out that with commit 72ec35163f9f ("switch compat readv/writev
variants to COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE") we lost the zero extension of a
couple of syscall parameters because the some parameter types haven't
been converted from unsigned long to compat_ulong_t.

This is needed for architectures where the ABI requires that the caller
of a function performed zero and/or sign extension to 64 bit of all
parameters.

commit dfd948e32af2e7b28bcd7a490c0a30d4b8df2a36 upstream.

We got a report that the pwritev syscall does not work correctly in
compat mode on s390.

It turned out that with commit 72ec35163f9f ("switch compat readv/writev
variants to COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE") we lost the zero extension of a
couple of syscall parameters because the some parameter types haven't
been converted from unsigned long to compat_ulong_t.

This is needed for architectures where the ABI requires that the caller
of a function performed zero and/or sign extension to 64 bit of all
parameters.
