[ Upstream commit 46bc86c833956219bbfd246c1ffd832a479c5199 ]

The TLS connect path has a use-after-free: nothing pins the
upper rpc_clnt across the delayed connect_worker. xs_connect()
stores task-&gt;tk_client in sock_xprt::clnt as a raw pointer
and queues the worker; for TLS-secured transports that worker
is xs_tcp_tls_setup_socket(), which reads several fields out
of the saved pointer (cl_timeout, cl_program, cl_prog,
cl_vers, cl_cred, cl_stats) to construct the args for the
inner handshake rpc_clnt.

The xprt does not reference the rpc_clnt; the rpc_clnt
references the xprt. xs_destroy() does cancel the
connect_worker, but it runs only when the xprt's refcount
drops to zero, which cannot happen until the rpc_clnt
releases its cl_xprt reference in rpc_free_client_work().
When a TLS handshake fails fatally (for example, an mTLS
mount whose client cert does not match the server), the
connecting task is woken with -EACCES and exits, the mount
caller invokes rpc_shutdown_client(), and the upper rpc_clnt
is freed before the queued connect_worker fires.
xs_tcp_tls_setup_socket() then dereferences the freed clnt,
producing the refcount_t underflow Michael Nemanov reported.

Take a reference on the upper rpc_clnt in xs_connect() for
TLS transports via a new rpc_hold_client() helper, and drop
it in the connect_worker's exit path with rpc_release_client().
The xprt_lock_connect() / xprt_unlock_connect() pairing
already serialises xs_connect() with xs_tcp_tls_setup_socket(),
so the take and release are balanced one-for-one.

The non-TLS connect worker (xs_tcp_setup_socket) never reads
sock_xprt::clnt, so leave that path alone and avoid the
clnt-holds-xprt-holds-clnt cycle that would otherwise prevent
xprt destruction.

<title>xprtrdma: Close lost-wakeup race in xprt_rdma_alloc_slot</title>

[ Upstream commit 765bde47fe7f197dabeb12da76831f40d0b20377 ]

xprt_rdma_alloc_slot() and xprt_rdma_free_slot() lack serialization
between the buffer pool and the backlog queue.  A buffer freed
after rpcrdma_buffer_get() finds the pool empty but before
rpc_sleep_on() places the task on the backlog is returned to the
pool with no waiter to wake, leaving the task stuck on the backlog
indefinitely.

After joining the backlog, re-check the pool and route any
recovered buffer through xprt_wake_up_backlog(), whose queue lock
serializes with concurrent wakeups and avoids double-assignment
of slots.

Because xprt_rdma_free_slot() does not hold reserve_lock, the
XPRT_CONGESTED double-check in xprt_throttle_congested() is
ineffective: a task can join the backlog through that path after
free_slot has already found it empty and cleared the bit.  Avoid
this by using xprt_add_backlog_noncongested(), which queues the
task without setting XPRT_CONGESTED, so every allocation reaches
xprt_rdma_alloc_slot() and its post-sleep re-check.

If rpc_signal_task() is called while a task is in an rpc_call_done()
callback function, and the latter calls rpc_restart_call(), the task can
end up looping due to the RPC_TASK_SIGNALLED flag being set without the
tk_rpc_status being set.
Removing the redundant mechanism for signalling the task fixes the
looping behaviour.

[ Upstream commit 0b108e83795c9c23101f584ef7e3ab4f1f120ef0 ]

The RPC_TASK_* constants are defined as macros, which means that most
kernel builds will not contain their definitions in the debuginfo.
However, it's quite useful for debuggers to be able to view the task
state constant and interpret it correctly. Conversion to an enum will
ensure the constants are present in debuginfo and can be interpreted by
debuggers without needing to hard-code them and track their changes.

[ Upstream commit 2c35f43b5a4b9cdfaa6fdd946f5a212615dac8eb ]

When the NFS client is under extreme load the rpc_wait_queue.qlen counter
can be overflowed. Here is an instant of the backlog queue overflow in a
real world environment shown by drgn helper:

[ Upstream commit bfca5fb4e97c46503ddfc582335917b0cc228264 ]

RPC client pipefs dentries cleanup is in separated rpc_remove_pipedir()
workqueue,which takes care about pipefs superblock locking.
In some special scenarios, when kernel frees the pipefs sb of the
current client and immediately alloctes a new pipefs sb,
rpc_remove_pipedir function would misjudge the existence of pipefs
sb which is not the one it used to hold. As a result,
the rpc_remove_pipedir would clean the released freed pipefs dentries.

To fix this issue, rpc_remove_pipedir should check whether the
current pipefs sb is consistent with the original pipefs sb.
