SUNRPC: avoid choosing an IPMI port for RPC traffic

2006-10-13T18:50:10+00:00

Some hardware uses port 664 for its hardware-based IPMI listener.  Teach
the RPC client to avoid using that port by raising the default minimum port
number to 665.

Test plan:
Find a mainboard known to use port 664 for IPMI; enable IPMI; mount NFS
servers in a tight loop.

[PATCH] knfsd: svcrpc: WARN() instead of returning an error from svc_take_page

2006-04-11T13:18:52+00:00

Every caller of svc_take_page ignores its return value and assumes it
succeeded.  So just WARN() instead of returning an ignored error.  This would
have saved some time debugging a recent nfsd4 problem.

If there are still failure cases here, then the result is probably that we
overwrite an earlier part of the reply while xdr-encoding.

While the corrupted reply is a nasty bug, it would be worse to panic here and
create the possibility of a remote DOS; hence WARN() instead of BUG().

[PATCH] mark f_ops const in the inode

2006-03-28T17:16:05+00:00

Mark the f_ops members of inodes as const, as well as fix the
ripple-through this causes by places that copy this f_ops and then "do
stuff" with it.

[PATCH] knfsd: Unexport cache_fresh and fix a small race

2006-03-27T16:44:43+00:00

Cache_fresh is now only used in cache.c, so unexport it.

Part of cache_fresh (setting CACHE_VALID) should really be done under the
lock, while part (calling cache_revisit_request etc) must be done outside the
lock.  So we split it up appropriately.

[PATCH] knfsd: Create cache_lookup function instead of using a macro to declare one

2006-03-27T16:44:41+00:00

The C++-like 'template' approach proves to be too ugly and hard to work with.

The old 'template' won't go away until all users are updated.
