<title>NFS: Fix use of nfs_attr_use_mounted_on_fileid()</title>

<id>2ef47eb1aee171ecf1d83311b9f7fae80f330181</id>
<content type='text'>
This function call was being optimized out during nfs_fhget(), leading
to situations where we have a valid fileid but still want to use the
mounted_on_fileid.  For example, imagine we have our server configured
like this:

server % df
Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/vda1       9.1G  6.5G  1.9G  78% /
/dev/vdb1       487M  2.3M  456M   1% /exports
/dev/vdc1       487M  2.3M  456M   1% /exports/vol1
/dev/vdd1       487M  2.3M  456M   1% /exports/vol2

If our client mounts /exports and tries to do a "chown -R" across the
entire mountpoint, we will get a nasty message warning us about a circular
directory structure.  Running chown with strace tells me that each directory
has the same device and inode number:

newfstatat(AT_FDCWD, "/nfs/", {st_dev=makedev(0, 38), st_ino=2, ...}) = 0
newfstatat(4, "vol1", {st_dev=makedev(0, 38), st_ino=2, ...}) = 0
newfstatat(4, "vol2", {st_dev=makedev(0, 38), st_ino=2, ...}) = 0

With this patch the mounted_on_fileid values are used for st_ino, so the
directory loop warning isn't reported.

If we start state recovery on a client that failed to initialise correctly,
then we are very likely to Oops.

We only support swap file calling nfs_direct_IO. However, application
might be able to get to nfs_direct_IO if it toggles O_DIRECT flag
during IO and it can deadlock because we grab inode-&gt;i_mutex in
nfs_file_direct_write(). So return 0 for such case. Then the generic
layer will fall back to buffer IO.

<title>NFSv4/v4.1: Verify the client owner id during trunking detection</title>

<id>55b9df93ddd684cbc4c2dee9b8a99f6e48348212</id>
<content type='text'>
While we normally expect the NFSv4 client to always send the same client
owner to all servers, there are a couple of situations where that is not
the case:
 1) In NFSv4.0, switching between use of '-omigration' and not will cause
    the kernel to switch between using the non-uniform and uniform client
    strings.
 2) In NFSv4.1, or NFSv4.0 when using uniform client strings, if the
    uniquifier string is suddenly changed.

This patch will catch those situations by checking the client owner id
in the trunking detection code, and will do the right thing if it notices
that the strings differ.

<content type='text'>
Currently, our trunking code will check for session trunking, but will
fail to detect client id trunking. This is a problem, because it means
that the client will fail to recognise that the two connections represent
shared state, even if they do not permit a shared session.
By removing the check for the server minor id, and only checking the
major id, we will end up doing the right thing in both cases: we close
down the new nfs_client and fall back to using the existing one.

  this one:

   - unification of d_splice_alias()/d_materialize_unique()

   - iov_iter rewrite

   - killing a bunch of -&gt;f_path.dentry users (and f_dentry macro).

     Getting that completed will make life much simpler for
     unionmount/overlayfs, since then we'll be able to limit the places
     sensitive to file _dentry_ to reasonably few.  Which allows to have
     file_inode(file) pointing to inode in a covered layer, with dentry
     pointing to (negative) dentry in union one.

     Still not complete, but much closer now.

   - crapectomy in lustre (dead code removal, mostly)

   - "let's make seq_printf return nothing" preparations
