This is the fix that the last two commits indirectly led up to - making sure that we don't call dput() in a bad context on the dentries we've looked up in RCU mode after the sequence count validation fails. This basically expands d_rcu_to_refcount() into the callers, and then fixes the callers to delay the dput() in the failure case until _after_ we've dropped all locks and are no longer in an RCU-locked region. The case of 'complete_walk()' was trivial, since its failure case did the unlock_rcu_walk() directly after the call to d_rcu_to_refcount(), and as such that is just a pure expansion of the function with a trivial movement of the resulting dput() to after 'unlock_rcu_walk()'. In contrast, the unlazy_walk() case was much more complicated, because not only does convert two different dentries from RCU to be reference counted, but it used to not call unlock_rcu_walk() at all, and instead just returned an error and let the caller clean everything up in "terminate_walk()". Happily, one of the dentries in question (called "parent" inside unlazy_walk()) is the dentry of "nd->path", which terminate_walk() wants a refcount to anyway for the non-RCU case. So what the new and improved unlazy_walk() does is to first turn that dentry into a refcounted one, and once that is set up, the error cases can continue to use the terminate_walk() helper for cleanup, but for the non-RCU case. Which makes it possible to drop out of RCU mode if we actually hit the sequence number failure case. Acked-by:

This simplifies the RCU to refcounting code in particular. I was originally intending to leave this for later, but walking through all the dput() logic (see previous commit), I realized that the dput() "might_sleep()" check was misleadingly weak. And I removed it as misleading, both for performance profiling and for debugging. However, the might_sleep() debugging case is actually true: the final dput() can indeed sleep, if the inode of the dentry that you are releasing ends up sleeping at iput time (see dentry_iput()). So the problem with the might_sleep() in dput() wasn't that it wasn't true, it was that it wasn't actually testing and triggering on the interesting case. In particular, just about *any* dput() can indeed sleep, if you happen to race with another thread deleting the file in question, and you then lose the race to the be the last dput() for that file. But because it's a very rare race, the debugging code would never trigger it in practice. Why is this problematic? The new d_rcu_to_refcount() (see commit 15570086 : "vfs: reimplement d_rcu_to_refcount() using lockref_get_or_lock()") does a dput() for the failure case, and it does it under the RCU lock. So potentially sleeping really is a bug. But there's no way I'm going to fix this with the previous complicated "lockref_get_or_lock()" interface. And rather than revert to the old and crufty nested dentry locking code (which did get this right by delaying the reference count updates until they were verified to be safe), let's make forward progress.

This is me being a bit OCD after all the dentry optimization work this merge window: profiles end up showing 'dput()' as a rather expensive operation, and there were two unrelated bad reasons for that. The first reason was reading d_lockref.count for debugging purposes, which touches the lockref cacheline (for reads) before really need to. More importantly, the debugging test in question is _wrong_, and has hidden bugs. It's true that we can only sleep when the count goes down to zero, but the test as-is hides the much more subtle bug that happens if we race with somebody else deleting the file. Anyway we _will_ touch that cacheline, but let's do it for a write and in the right routine (ie in "lockref_put_or_lock()") which annotates the costs better. So remove the misleading debug code. The other was an unnecessary access to the cacheline that contains the d_lru list, just to check whether we already were on the LRU list or not. This is exactly what we have d_flags for, so that we can avoid touching extra cache lines for the common case. So just add another bit for "is this dentry on the LRU". Finally, mark the tests properly likely/unlikely, so that the common fast-paths are dense in the instruction stream. This makes the profiles look much saner. Signed-off-by:

The only actual current lockref user (dcache) uses zero reference counts even for perfectly live dentries, because it's a cache: there may not be any users, but that doesn't mean that we want to throw away the dentry. At the same time, the dentry cache does have a notion of a truly "dead" dentry that we must not even increment the reference count of, because we have pruned it and it is not valid. Currently that distinction is not visible in the lockref itself, and the dentry cache validation uses "lockref_get_or_lock()" to either get a new reference to a dentry that already had existing references (and thus cannot be dead), or get the dentry lock so that we can then verify the dentry and increment the reference count under the lock if that verification was successful. That's all somewhat complicated. This adds the concept of being "dead" to the lockref itself, by simply using a count that is negative. This allows a usage scenario where we can increment the refcount of a dentry without having to validate it, and pushing the special "we killed it" case into the lockref code. The dentry code itself doesn't actually use this yet, and it's probably too late in the merge window to do that code (the dentry_kill() code with its "should I decrement the count" logic really is pretty complex code), but let's introduce the concept at the lockref level now.

Commit 97431204 introduced a regression that causes SECINFO_NO_NAME to fail without sending an RPC if: 1) the nfs_client's rpc_client is using krb5i/p (now tried by default) 2) the current user doesn't have valid kerberos credentials This situation is quite common - as of now a sec=sys mount would use krb5i for the nfs_client's rpc_client and a user would hardly be faulted for not having run kinit. The solution is to use the machine cred when trying to use an integrity protected auth flavor for SECINFO_NO_NAME. Older servers may not support using the machine cred or an integrity protected auth flavor for SECINFO_NO_NAME in every circumstance, so we fall back to using the user's cred and the filesystem's auth flavor in this case. We run into another problem when running against linux nfs servers - they return NFS4ERR_WRONGSEC when using integrity auth flavor (unless the mount is also that flavor) even though that is not a valid error for SECINFO*. Even though it's against spec, handle WRONGSEC errors on SECINFO_NO_NAME by falling back to using the user cred and the filesystem's auth flavor. Signed-off-by:
