      NFS avoid expired credential keys for buffered writes · dc24826b
      Andy Adamson authored 
      We must avoid buffering a WRITE that is using a credential key (e.g. a GSS
context key) that is about to expire or has expired.  We currently will
paint ourselves into a corner by returning success to the applciation
for such a buffered WRITE, only to discover that we do not have permission when
we attempt to flush the WRITE (and potentially associated COMMIT) to disk.

Use the RPC layer credential key timeout and expire routines which use a
a watermark, gss_key_expire_timeo. We test the key in nfs_file_write.

If a WRITE is using a credential with a key that will expire within
watermark seconds, flush the inode in nfs_write_end and send only
NFS_FILE_SYNC WRITEs by adding nfs_ctx_key_to_expire to nfs_need_sync_write.
Note that this results in single page NFS_FILE_SYNC WRITEs.

      SUNRPC new rpc_credops to test credential expiry · 4de6caa2
      Andy Adamson authored 
      This patch provides the RPC layer helper functions to allow NFS to manage
data in the face of expired credentials - such as avoiding buffered WRITEs
and COMMITs when the gss context will expire before the WRITEs are flushed
and COMMITs are sent.

These helper functions enable checking the expiration of an underlying
credential key for a generic rpc credential, e.g. the gss_cred gss context
gc_expiry which for Kerberos is set to the remaining TGT lifetime.

A new rpc_authops key_timeout is only defined for the generic auth.
A new rpc_credops crkey_to_expire is only defined for the generic cred.
A new rpc_credops crkey_timeout is only defined for the gss cred.

Set a credential key expiry watermark, RPC_KEY_EXPIRE_TIMEO set to 240 seconds
as a default and can be set via a module parameter as we need to ensure there
is time for any dirty data to be flushed.

If key_timeout is called on a credential with an underlying credential key that
will expire within watermark seconds, we set the RPC_CRED_KEY_EXPIRE_SOON
flag in the generic_cred acred so that the NFS layer can clean up prior to
key expiration.

Checking a generic credential's underlying credential involves a cred lookup.
To avoid this lookup in the normal case when the underlying credential has
a key that is valid (before the watermark), a notify flag is set in
the generic credential the first time the key_timeout is called. The
generic credential then stops checking the underlying credential key expiry, and
the underlying credential (gss_cred) match routine then checks the key
expiration upon each normal use and sets a flag in the associated generic
credential only when the key expiration is within the watermark.
This in turn signals the generic credential key_timeout to perform the extra
credential lookup thereafter.

      SUNRPC: don't map EKEYEXPIRED to EACCES in call_refreshresult · f1ff0c27
      Andy Adamson authored 
      The NFS layer needs to know when a key has expired.
This change also returns -EKEYEXPIRED to the application, and the informative
"Key has expired" error message is displayed. The user then knows that
credential renewal is required.
