The nfsd_ctl_fh_key_set tracepoint was introduced to capture
operator activity on the filehandle signing key. Earlier revisions
logged the key bytes verbatim; the version that landed hashes the
16 key bytes through crc32_le and stores the result.

CRC32 is a linear projection of its input rather than a one-way
function, and truncating any hash of fixed-size secret material
leaves the key recoverable under offline brute force when the
threat model includes an attacker with access to the trace ring.

The operational question the fingerprint was meant to answer is
whether a NFSD_CMD_THREADS_SET call that carries an
NFSD_A_SERVER_FH_KEY attribute actually replaced the active key or
re-installed the value already in place. Answer that question
directly: compare the incoming key bytes against the current
nn-&gt;fh_key inside nfsd_nl_fh_key_set() and surface a single bit to
the tracepoint. The event now prints "updated" when the stored
key changed and "unmodified" otherwise. A first set that fails
kmalloc reports "unmodified" because no key was installed.

SC_TYPE_LAYOUT case in nfsd4_revoke_states() never sets sc_status
before calling nfsd4_close_layout(). The retry loop therefore finds

When delegated attributes are given on open, the file is opened with
NOCMTIME and modifying operations do not update mtime/ctime as to not get
out-of-sync with the client's delegated view. However, for COPY operation,
the server should update its view of mtime/ctime and reflect that in any
GETATTR queries.

<title>nfsd: fix file change detection in CB_GETATTR</title>

<id>304d81a2fbf2b454def4debcb38ea173911b72cd</id>
<content type='text'>
RFC 8881, section 10.4.3 doesn't say anything about caching the file
size in the delegation record, nor does it say anything about comparing
a cached file size with the size reported by the client in the
CB_GETATTR reply for the purpose of determining if the client holds
modified data for the file.

What section 10.4.3 of RFC 8881 does say is that the server should
compare the *current* file size with the size reported by the client
holding the delegation in the CB_GETATTR reply, and if they differ to
treat it as a modification regardless of the change attribute retrieved
via the CB_GETATTR.

Doing otherwise would cause the server to believe the client holding the
delegation has a modified version of the file, even if the client
flushed the modifications to the server prior to the CB_GETATTR.  This
would have the added side effect of subsequent CB_GETATTRs causing
updates to the mtime, ctime, and change attribute even if the client
holding the delegation makes no further updates to the file.

Modify nfsd4_deleg_getattr_conflict() to obtain the current file size
via i_size_read().  Retain the ncf_cur_fsize field, since it's a
convenient way to return the file size back to nfsd4_encode_fattr4(),
but don't use it for the purpose of detecting file changes.  Remove the
unnecessary initialization of ncf_cur_fsize in nfs4_open_delegation().

Also, if we recall the delegation (because the client didn't respond to
the CB_GETATTR), then skip the logic that checks the nfs4_cb_fattr
fields.

<title>nfsd: fix GET_DIR_DELEGATION when VFS leases are disabled</title>

When leases are disabled on the server, running xfstest generic/309 leads
to an error because GET_DIR_DELEGATION returns EINVAL.

nfsd_get_dir_deleg() can fail in several ways: like memory allocation and
unable to get a lease because either leases are disable or it's already
held. Currently only the condition "already held" is translated to
returning directory-delegation-is-unavailable error. However, other failure
conditions are likely temporary and thus should result in the same kind
of error.

Pull nfsd updates from Chuck Lever:

 - filehandle signing to defend against filehandle-guessing attacks
   (Benjamin Coddington)

   The server now appends a SipHash-2-4 MAC to each filehandle when
   the new "sign_fh" export option is enabled. NFSD then verifies
   filehandles received from clients against the expected MAC;
   mismatches return NFS error STALE

 - convert the entire NLMv4 server-side XDR layer from hand-written C to
   xdrgen-generated code, spanning roughly thirty patches (Chuck Lever)

   XDR functions are generally boilerplate code and are easy to get
   wrong. The goals of this conversion are improved memory safety, lower
   maintenance burden, and groundwork for eventual Rust code generation
   for these functions.

 - improve pNFS block/SCSI layout robustness with two related changes
   (Dai Ngo)

   SCSI persistent reservation fencing is now tracked per client and
   per device via an xarray, to avoid both redundant preempt operations
   on devices already fenced and a potential NFSD deadlock when all nfsd
   threads are waiting for a layout return.

 - scalability and infrastructure improvements

   Sincere thanks to all contributors, reviewers, testers, and bug
   reporters who participated in the v7.1 NFSD development cycle.

Pull vfs i_ino updates from Christian Brauner:
 "For historical reasons, the inode-&gt;i_ino field is an unsigned long,
  which means that it's 32 bits on 32 bit architectures. This has caused
  a number of filesystems to implement hacks to hash a 64-bit identifier
  into a 32-bit field, and deprives us of a universal identifier field
  for an inode.

  This changes the inode-&gt;i_ino field from an unsigned long to a u64.
  This shouldn't make any material difference on 64-bit hosts, but
  32-bit hosts will see struct inode grow by at least 4 bytes. This
  could have effects on slabcache sizes and field alignment.

  The bulk of the changes are to format strings and tracepoints, since
  the kernel itself doesn't care that much about the i_ino field. The
  first patch changes some vfs function arguments, so check that one out
  carefully.

  With this change, we may be able to shrink some inode structures. For
  instance, struct nfs_inode has a fileid field that holds the 64-bit
  inode number. With this set of changes, that field could be
  eliminated. I'd rather leave that sort of cleanups for later just to
  keep this simple"
