nfsd: new Kconfig option for legacy client tracking

We've had a number of attempts at different NFSv4 client tracking
methods over the years, but now nfsdcld has emerged as the clear winner
since the others (recoverydir and the usermodehelper upcall) are
problematic.

As a case in point, the recoverydir backend uses MD5 hashes to encode
long form clientid strings, which means that nfsd repeatedly gets dinged
on FIPS audits, since MD5 isn't considered secure. Its use of MD5 is not
cryptographically significant, so there is no danger there, but allowing
us to compile that out allows us to sidestep the issue entirely.

As a prelude to eventually removing support for these client tracking
methods, add a new Kconfig option that enables them. Mark it deprecated
and make it default to N.

NFS & NFSD: Update GSS dependencies

Geert reports that:
> On v6.2, "make ARCH=m68k defconfig" gives you
> CONFIG_RPCSEC_GSS_KRB5=m
> On v6.3, it became builtin, due to dropping the dependencies on
> the individual crypto modules.
>
> $ grep -E "CRYPTO_(MD5|DES|CBC|CTS|ECB|HMAC|SHA1|AES)" .config
> CONFIG_CRYPTO_AES=y
> CONFIG_CRYPTO_AES_TI=m
> CONFIG_CRYPTO_DES=m
> CONFIG_CRYPTO_CBC=m
> CONFIG_CRYPTO_CTS=m
> CONFIG_CRYPTO_ECB=m
> CONFIG_CRYPTO_HMAC=m
> CONFIG_CRYPTO_MD5=m
> CONFIG_CRYPTO_SHA1=m

This behavior is triggered by the "default y" in the definition of
RPCSEC_GSS.

The "default y" was added in 2010 by commit df486a25900f ("NFS: Fix
the selection of security flavours in Kconfig"). However,
svc_gss_principal was removed in 2012 by commit 03a4e1f6ddf2
("nfsd4: move principal name into svc_cred"), so the 2010 fix is
no longer necessary. We can safely change the NFS_V4 and NFSD_V4
dependencies back to RPCSEC_GSS_KRB5 to get the nicer v6.2
behavior back.

Selecting KRB5 symbolically represents the true requirement here:
that all spec-compliant NFSv4 implementations must have Kerberos
available to use.

nfsd: allow disabling NFSv2 at compile time

rpc.nfsd stopped supporting NFSv2 a year ago. Take the next logical
step toward deprecating it and allow NFSv2 support to be compiled out.

Add a new CONFIG_NFSD_V2 option that can be turned off and rework the
CONFIG_NFSD_V?_ACL option dependencies. Add a description that
discourages enabling it.

Also, change the description of CONFIG_NFSD to state that the always-on
version is now 3 instead of 2.

Finally, add an #ifdef around "case 2:" in __write_versions. When NFSv2
is disabled at compile time, this should make the kernel ignore attempts
to disable it at runtime, but still error out when trying to enable it.

NFSD: Remove CONFIG_NFSD_V3

Eventually support for NFSv2 in the Linux NFS server is to be
deprecated and then removed.

However, NFSv2 is the "always supported" version that is available
as soon as CONFIG_NFSD is set. Before NFSv2 support can be removed,
we need to choose a different "always supported" version.

This patch removes CONFIG_NFSD_V3 so that NFSv3 is always supported,
as NFSv2 is today. When NFSv2 support is removed, NFSv3 will become
the only "always supported" NFS version.

The defconfigs still need to be updated to remove CONFIG_NFSD_V3=y.

nfsd: depend on CRYPTO_MD5 for legacy client tracking

The legacy client tracking infrastructure of nfsd makes use of MD5 to
derive a client's recovery directory name. As the nfsd module doesn't
declare any dependency on CRYPTO_MD5, though, it may fail to allocate
the hash if the kernel was compiled without it. As a result, generation
of client recovery directories will fail with the following error:

NFSD: unable to generate recoverydir name

The explicit dependency on CRYPTO_MD5 was removed as redundant back in
6aaa67b5f3b9 (NFSD: Remove redundant "select" clauses in fs/Kconfig
2008-02-11) as it was already implicitly selected via RPCSEC_GSS_KRB5.
This broke when RPCSEC_GSS_KRB5 was made optional for NFSv4 in commit
df486a25900f (NFS: Fix the selection of security flavours in Kconfig) at
a later point.

Fix the issue by adding back an explicit dependency on CRYPTO_MD5.

# 65294c1f 18-Aug-2019 Jeff Layton <jeff.layton@primarydata.com>

nfsd: add a new struct file caching facility to nfsd

Currently, NFSv2/3 reads and writes have to open a file, do the read or
write and then close it again for each RPC. This is highly inefficient,
especially when the underlying filesystem has a relatively slow open
routine.

This patch adds a new open file cache to knfsd. Rather than doing an
open for each RPC, the read/write handlers can call into this cache to
see if there is one already there for the correct filehandle and
NFS_MAY_READ/WRITE flags.

If there isn't an entry, then we create a new one and attempt to
perform the open. If there is, then we wait until the entry is fully
instantiated and return it if it is at the end of the wait. If it's
not, then we attempt to take over construction.

Since the main goal is to speed up NFSv2/3 I/O, we don't want to
close these files on last put of these objects. We need to keep them
around for a little while since we never know when the next READ/WRITE
will come in.

Cache entries have a hardcoded 1s timeout, and we have a recurring
workqueue job that walks the cache and purges any entries that have
expired.

kernel: conditionally support non-root users, groups and capabilities

There are a lot of embedded systems that run most or all of their
functionality in init, running as root:root. For these systems,
supporting multiple users is not necessary.

This patch adds a new symbol, CONFIG_MULTIUSER, that makes support for
non-root users, non-root groups, and capabilities optional. It is enabled
under CONFIG_EXPERT menu.

When this symbol is not defined, UID and GID are zero in any possible case
and processes always have all capabilities.

The following syscalls are compiled out: setuid, setregid, setgid,
setreuid, setresuid, getresuid, setresgid, getresgid, setgroups,
getgroups, setfsuid, setfsgid, capget, capset.

Also, groups.c is compiled out completely.

In kernel/capability.c, capable function was moved in order to avoid
adding two ifdef blocks.

This change saves about 25 KB on a defconfig build. The most minimal
kernels have total text sizes in the high hundreds of kB rather than
low MB. (The 25k goes down a bit with allnoconfig, but not that much.

The kernel was booted in Qemu. All the common functionalities work.
Adding users/groups is not possible, failing with -ENOSYS.

nfsd: implement pNFS operations

Add support for the GETDEVICEINFO, LAYOUTGET, LAYOUTCOMMIT and
LAYOUTRETURN NFSv4.1 operations, as well as backing code to manage
outstanding layouts and devices.

Layout management is very straight forward, with a nfs4_layout_stateid
structure that extends nfs4_stid to manage layout stateids as the
top-level structure. It is linked into the nfs4_file and nfs4_client
structures like the other stateids, and contains a linked list of
layouts that hang of the stateid. The actual layout operations are
implemented in layout drivers that are not part of this commit, but
will be added later.

The worst part of this commit is the management of the pNFS device IDs,
which suffers from a specification that is not sanely implementable due
to the fact that the device-IDs are global and not bound to an export,
and have a small enough size so that we can't store the fsid portion of
a file handle, and must never be reused. As we still do need perform all
export authentication and validation checks on a device ID passed to
GETDEVICEINFO we are caught between a rock and a hard place. To work
around this issue we add a new hash that maps from a 64-bit integer to a
fsid so that we can look up the export to authenticate against it,
a 32-bit integer as a generation that we can bump when changing the device,
and a currently unused 32-bit integer that could be used in the future
to handle more than a single device per export. Entries in this hash
table are never deleted as we can't reuse the ids anyway, and would have
a severe lifetime problem anyway as Linux export structures are temporary
structures that can go away under load.

Parts of the XDR data, structures and marshaling/unmarshaling code, as
well as many concepts are derived from the old pNFS server implementation
from Andy Adamson, Benny Halevy, Dean Hildebrand, Marc Eshel, Fred Isaman,
Mike Sager, Ricardo Labiaga and many others.

Fault injection on the NFS server makes it easier to test the client's

This patch uses debugfs to add a simple framework for fault injection to

through CONFIG_NFSD_FAULT_INJECTION. Assuming you have debugfs mounted
to /sys/debug, a set of files will be created in /sys/debug/nfsd/.
Writing to any of these files will cause the corresponding action and

lockd: push lock_flocks down

lockd should use lock_flocks() instead of lock_kernel()
to lock against posix locks accessing the i_flock list.

This is a prerequisite to turning lock_flocks into a
spinlock.

BKL: introduce CONFIG_BKL.

With all the patches we have queued in the BKL removal tree, only a
few dozen modules are left that actually rely on the BKL, and even
there are lots of low-hanging fruit. We need to decide what to do
about them, this patch illustrates one of the options:

Every user of the BKL is marked as 'depends on BKL' in Kconfig,
and the CONFIG_BKL becomes a user-visible option. If it gets
disabled, no BKL using module can be built any more and the BKL
code itself is compiled out.

The one exception is file locking, which is practically always
enabled and does a 'select BKL' instead. This effectively forces
CONFIG_BKL to be enabled until we have solved the fs/lockd
mess and can apply the patch that removes the BKL from fs/locks.c.

nfsd: allow deprecated interface to be compiled out.

Add CONFIG_NFSD_DEPRECATED, default to y.
Only include deprecated interface if this is defined.
This allows distros to remove this interface before the official
removal, and allows developers to test without it.

SUNRPC: Fix the NFSv4 and RPCSEC_GSS Kconfig dependencies

The NFSv4 client's callback server calls svc_gss_principal(), which
is defined in the auth_rpcgss.ko

The NFSv4 server has the same dependency, and in addition calls
svcauth_gss_flavor(), gss_mech_get_by_pseudoflavor(),
gss_pseudoflavor_to_service() and gss_mech_put() from the same module.

The module auth_rpcgss itself has no dependencies aside from sunrpc,
so we only need to select RPCSEC_GSS.

NFS: Fix the selection of security flavours in Kconfig

Randy Dunlap reports:

ERROR: "svc_gss_principal" [fs/nfs/nfs.ko] undefined!


because in fs/nfs/Kconfig, NFS_V4 selects RPCSEC_GSS_KRB5
and/or in fs/nfsd/Kconfig, NFSD_V4 selects RPCSEC_GSS_KRB5.

RPCSEC_GSS_KRB5 does 5 selects, but none of these is enforced/followed
by the fs/nfs[d]/Kconfig configs:

select SUNRPC_GSS
select CRYPTO
select CRYPTO_MD5
select CRYPTO_DES
select CRYPTO_CBC
