Merge tag 'nfsd-5.8' of git://linux-nfs.org/~bfields/linux

Pull nfsd updates from Bruce Fields: "Highlights: - Keep nfsd clients from unnecessarily breaking their own delegations. Note this requires a small kthreadd addition. The result is Tejun Heo's suggestion (see link), and he was OK with this going through my tree. - Patch nfsd/clients/ to display filenames, and to fix byte-order when displaying stateid's. - fix a module loading/unloading bug, from Neil Brown. - A big series from Chuck Lever with RPC/RDMA and tracing improvements, and lay some groundwork for RPC-over-TLS" Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/1588348912-24781-1-git-send-email-bfields@redhat.com * tag 'nfsd-5.8' of git://linux-nfs.org/~bfields/linux: (49 commits) sunrpc: use kmemdup_nul() in gssp_stringify() nfsd: safer handling of corrupted c_type nfsd4: make drc_slab global, not per-net SUNRPC: Remove unreachable error condition in rpcb_getport_async() nfsd: Fix svc_xprt refcnt leak when setup callback client failed sunrpc: clean up properly in gss_mech_unregister() sunrpc: svcauth_gss_register_pseudoflavor must reject duplicate registrations. sunrpc: check that domain table is empty at module unload.

mm: add readahead address space operation

2020-06-02T17:59:06Z

This replaces ->readpages with a saner interface: - Return void instead of an ignored error code. - Page cache is already populated with locked pages when ->readahead is called. - New arguments can be passed to the implementation without changing all the filesystems that use a common helper function like mpage_readahead().

nfsd: clients don't need to break their own delegations

2020-05-09T01:23:10Z

We currently revoke read delegations on any write open or any operation that modifies file data or metadata (including rename, link, and unlink). But if the delegation in question is the only read delegation and is held by the client performing the operation, that's not really necessary. It's not always possible to prevent this in the NFSv4.0 case, because there's not always a way to determine which client an NFSv4.0 delegation came from. (In theory we could try to guess this from the transport layer, e.g., by assuming all traffic on a given TCP connection comes from the same client. But that's not really correct.) In the NFSv4.1 case the session layer always tells us the client. This patch should remove such self-conflicts in all cases where we can reliably determine the client from the compound. To do that we need to track "who" is performing a given (possibly lease-breaking) file operation. We're doing that by storing the information in the svc_rqst and using kthread_data() to map the current task back to a svc_rqst. Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields

docs: fs: convert docs without extension to ReST

2019-07-31T19:31:05Z

There are 3 remaining files without an extension inside the fs docs dir. Manually convert them to ReST. In the case of the nfs/exporting.rst file, as the nfs docs aren't ported yet, I opted to convert and add a :orphan: there, with should be removed when it gets added into a nfs-specific part of the fs documentation.
