8b306a2e7c Various bugfixes, a RDMA update from Chuck Lever, and support for a new
pnfs layout type from Christoph Hellwig.  The new layout type is a
 variant of the block layout which uses SCSI features to offer improved
 fencing and device identification.
 
 Note this pull request also includes the client side of SCSI layout,
 with Trond's permission.

f99d4fbdae nfsd: add SCSI layout support
This is a simple extension to the block layout driver to use SCSI
persistent reservations for access control and fencing, as well as
SCSI VPD pages for device identification.

For this we need to pass the nfs4_client to the proc_getdeviceinfo method
to generate the reservation key, and add a new fence_client method
to allow for fence actions in the layout driver.

26fb342c73 ipconfig: send Client-identifier in DHCP requests
A dhcp server may provide parameters to a client from a pool of IP
addresses and using a shared rootfs, or provide a specific set of
parameters for a specific client, usually using the MAC address to
identify each client individually. The dhcp protocol also specifies
a client-id field which can be used to determine the correct
parameters to supply when no MAC address is available. There is
currently no way to tell the kernel to supply a specific client-id,
only the userspace dhcp clients support this feature, but this can
not be used when the network is needed before userspace is available
such as when the root filesystem is on NFS.

This patch is to be able to do something like "ip=dhcp,client_id_type,
client_id_value", as a kernel parameter to enable the kernel to
identify itself to the server.

8650b8a058 nfsd: pNFS block layout driver
Add a small shim between core nfsd and filesystems to translate the
somewhat cumbersome pNFS data structures and semantics to something
more palatable for Linux filesystems.

Thanks to Rick McNeal for the old prototype pNFS blocklayout server
code, which gave a lot of inspiration to this version even if no
code is left from it.

030d794bf4 SUNRPC: Use gssproxy upcall for server RPCGSS authentication.
The main advantge of this new upcall mechanism is that it can handle
big tickets as seen in Kerberos implementations where tickets carry
authorization data like the MS-PAC buffer with AD or the Posix Authorization
Data being discussed in IETF on the krbwg working group.

The Gssproxy program is used to perform the accept_sec_context call on the
kernel's behalf. The code is changed to also pass the input buffer straight
to upcall mechanism to avoid allocating and copying many pages as tokens can
be as big (potentially more in future) as 64KiB.

ffe1137ba7 nfsd4: delay filling in write iovec array till after xdr decoding
Our server rejects compounds containing more than one write operation.
It's unclear whether this is really permitted by the spec; with 4.0,
it's possibly OK, with 4.1 (which has clearer limits on compound
parameters), it's probably not OK.  No client that we're aware of has
ever done this, but in theory it could be useful.

The source of the limitation: we need an array of iovecs to pass to the
write operation.  In the worst case that array of iovecs could have
hundreds of elements (the maximum rwsize divided by the page size), so
it's too big to put on the stack, or in each compound op.  So we instead
keep a single such array in the compound argument.

We fill in that array at the time we decode the xdr operation.

But we decode every op in the compound before executing any of them.  So
once we've used that array we can't decode another write.

If we instead delay filling in that array till the time we actually
perform the write, we can reuse it.

Another option might be to switch to decoding compound ops one at a
time.  I considered doing that, but it has a number of other side
effects, and I'd rather fix just this one problem for now.

nfs: disintegrate UAPI for nfs

This is to complete part of the Userspace API (UAPI) disintegration for which
the preparatory patches were pulled recently.  After these patches, userspace
headers will be segregated into:

        include/uapi/linux/.../foo.h

for the userspace interface stuff, and:

        include/linux/.../foo.h

for the strictly kernel internal stuff.

6f2ea7f2a3 NFS: Add nfs4_unique_id boot parameter
An optional boot parameter is introduced to allow client
administrators to specify a string that the Linux NFS client can
insert into its nfs_client_id4 id string, to make it both more
globally unique, and to ensure that it doesn't change even if the
client's nodename changes.

If this boot parameter is not specified, the client's nodename is
used, as before.

Client installation procedures can create a unique string (typically,
a UUID) which remains unchanged during the lifetime of that client
instance.  This works just like creating a UUID for the label of the
system's root and boot volumes.

5e953778a2 ipconfig: add nameserver IPs to kernel-parameter ip=
On small systems (e.g. embedded ones) IP addresses are often configured
by bootloaders and get assigned to kernel via parameter "ip=".  If set to
"ip=dhcp", even nameserver entries from DHCP daemons are handled. These
entries exported in /proc/net/pnp are commonly linked by /etc/resolv.conf.

To configure nameservers for networks without DHCP, this patch adds option
<dns0-ip> and <dns1-ip> to kernel-parameter 'ip='.

18d98f6c04 pnfs-obj: autologin: Add support for protocol autologin
The pnfs-objects protocol mandates that we autologin into devices not
present in the system, according to information specified in the
get_device_info returned from the server.

The Protocol specifies two login hints.
1. An IP address:port combination
2. A string URI which is constructed as a URL with a protocol prefix
   followed by :// and a string as address. For each  protocol prefix
   the string-address format might be different.

We only support the second option. The first option is just redundant
to the second one.
NOTE: The Kernel part of autologin does not parse the URI string. It
just channels it to a user-mode script. So any new login protocols should
only update the user-mode script which is a part of the nfs-utils package,
but the Kernel need not change.

We implement the autologin by using the call_usermodehelper() API.
(Thanks to Steve Dickson <steved@redhat.com> for pointing it out)
So there is no running daemon needed, and/or special setup.

We Add the osd_login_prog Kernel module parameters which defaults to:
	/sbin/osd_login

Kernel try's to upcall the program specified in osd_login_prog. If the file is
not found or the execution fails Kernel will disable any farther upcalls, by
zeroing out  osd_login_prog, Until Admin re-enables it by setting the
osd_login_prog parameter to a proper program.

Also add text about the osd_login program command line API to:
	Documentation/filesystems/nfs/pnfs.txt
and documentation of the new  osd_login_prog  module parameter to:
	Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt

TODO: Add timeout option in the case osd_login program gets
              stuck

955a857e06 NFS: new idmapper
This patch creates a new idmapper system that uses the request-key function to
place a call into userspace to map user and group ids to names.  The old
idmapper was single threaded, which prevented more than one request from running
at a single time.  This means that a user would have to wait for an upcall to
finish before accessing a cached result.

The upcall result is stored on a keyring of type id_resolver.  See the file
Documentation/filesystems/nfs/idmapper.txt for instructions.
