SUNRPC: Support for RPC over AF_LOCAL transports

2011-05-27T21:42:47+00:00

TI-RPC introduces the capability of performing RPC over AF_LOCAL
sockets.  It uses this mainly for registering and unregistering
local RPC services securely with the local rpcbind, but we could
also conceivably use it as a generic upcall mechanism.

This patch provides a client-side only implementation for the moment.
We might also consider a server-side implementation to provide
AF_LOCAL access to NLM (for statd downcalls, and such like).

Autobinding is not supported on kernel AF_LOCAL transports at this
time.  Kernel ULPs must specify the pathname of the remote endpoint
when an AF_LOCAL transport is created.  rpcbind supports registering
services available via AF_LOCAL, so the kernel could handle it with
some adjustment to ->rpcbind and ->set_port.  But we don't need this
feature for doing upcalls via well-known named sockets.

This has not been tested with ULPs that move a substantial amount of
data.  Thus, I can't attest to how robust the write_space and
congestion management logic is.

SUNRPC: Remove obsolete comment

2011-05-27T21:42:47+00:00

Clean up.  The documenting comment at the top of net/sunrpc/clnt.c is
out of date.  We adopted BSD's RTO estimation mechanism years ago.

SUNRPC: Use AF_LOCAL for rpcbind upcalls

2011-05-27T21:42:47+00:00

As libtirpc does in user space, have our registration API try using an
AF_LOCAL transport first when registering and unregistering.

This means we don't chew up privileged ports, and our registration is
bound to an "owner" (the effective uid of the process on the sending
end of the transport).  Only that "owner" may unregister the service.

The kernel could probe rpcbind via an rpcbind query to determine
whether rpcbind has an AF_LOCAL service. For simplicity, we use the
same technique that libtirpc uses: simply fail over to network
loopback if creating an AF_LOCAL transport to the well-known rpcbind
service socket fails.

This means we open-code the pathname of the rpcbind socket in the
kernel.  For now we have to do that anyway because the kernel's
RPC over AF_LOCAL implementation does not support autobind.  That may
be undesirable in the long term.

SUNRPC: Clean up use of curly braces in switch cases

2011-05-27T21:42:47+00:00

Clean up.  Preferred style is not to use curly braces around
switch cases.  I'm about to add another case that needs a third
type cast.

SUNRPC: Rename xs_encode_tcp_fragment_header()

2011-05-27T21:42:47+00:00

Clean up: Use a more generic name for xs_encode_tcp_fragment_header();
it's appropriate to use for all stream transport types.  We're about
to add new stream transport.

Also, move it to a place where it is more easily shared amongst the
various send_request methods.  And finally, replace the "htonl" macro
invocation with its modern equivalent.

SUNRPC: Deal with the lack of a SYN_SENT sk->sk_state_change callback...

2011-05-27T21:42:00+00:00

The TCP connection state code depends on the state_change() callback
being called when the SYN_SENT state is set. However the networking layer
doesn't actually call us back in that case.
