      SUNRPC: Remove EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() from GSS mech switch · 5007220b

      Clean up: Reduce the symbol table footprint for auth_rpcgss.ko by
      removing exported symbols for functions that are no longer used
      outside of auth_rpcgss.ko.
      
      The remaining two EXPORTs in gss_mech_switch.c get documenting
      comments.

      SUNRPC: Consider qop when looking up pseudoflavors · 83523d08
      Chuck Lever authored
      
      
      The NFSv4 SECINFO operation returns a list of security flavors that
      the server supports for a particular share.  An NFSv4 client is
      supposed to pick a pseudoflavor it supports that corresponds to one
      of the flavors returned by the server.
      
      GSS flavors in this list have a GSS tuple that identify a specific
      GSS pseudoflavor.
      
      Currently our client ignores the GSS tuple's "qop" value.  A
      matching pseudoflavor is chosen based only on the OID and service
      value.
      
      So far this omission has not had much effect on Linux.  The NFSv4
      protocol currently supports only one qop value: GSS_C_QOP_DEFAULT,
      also known as zero.
      
      However, if an NFSv4 server happens to return something other than
      zero in the qop field, our client won't notice.  This could cause
      the client to behave in incorrect ways that could have security
      implications.

      SUNRPC: Load GSS kernel module by OID · f783288f
      Chuck Lever authored
      
      
      The current GSS mech switch can find and load GSS pseudoflavor
      modules by name ("krb5") or pseudoflavor number ("390003"), but
      cannot find GSS modules by GSS tuple:
      
        [ "1.2.840.113554.1.2.2", GSS_C_QOP_DEFAULT, RPC_GSS_SVC_NONE ]
      
      This is important when dealing with a SECINFO request.  A SECINFO
      reply contains a list of flavors the server supports for the
      requested export, but GSS flavors also have a GSS tuple that maps
      to a pseudoflavor (like 390003 for krb5).
      
      If the GSS module that supports the OID in the tuple is not loaded,
      our client is not able to load that module dynamically to support
      that pseudoflavor.
      
      Add a way for the GSS mech switch to load GSS pseudoflavor support
      by OID before searching for the pseudoflavor that matches the OID
      and service.

      SUNRPC: Introduce rpcauth_get_pseudoflavor() · 9568c5e9
      Chuck Lever authored
      
      
      A SECINFO reply may contain flavors whose kernel module is not
      yet loaded by the client's kernel.  A new RPC client API, called
      rpcauth_get_pseudoflavor(), is introduced to do proper checking
      for support of a security flavor.
      
      When this API is invoked, the RPC client now tries to load the
      module for each flavor first before performing the "is this
      supported?" check.  This means if a module is available on the
      client, but has not been loaded yet, it will be loaded and
      registered automatically when the SECINFO reply is processed.
      
      The new API can take a full GSS tuple (OID, QoP, and service).
      Previously only the OID and service were considered.
      
      nfs_find_best_sec() is updated to verify all flavors requested in a
      SECINFO reply, including AUTH_NULL and AUTH_UNIX.  Previously these
      two flavors were simply assumed to be supported without consulting
      the RPC client.
      
      Note that the replaced version of nfs_find_best_sec() can return
      RPC_AUTH_MAXFLAVOR if the server returns a recognized OID but an
      unsupported "service" value.  nfs_find_best_sec() now returns
      RPC_AUTH_UNIX in this case.

      SUNRPC: Define rpcsec_gss_info structure · fb15b26f
      Chuck Lever authored
      
      
      The NFSv4 SECINFO procedure returns a list of security flavors.  Any
      GSS flavor also has a GSS tuple containing an OID, a quality-of-
      protection value, and a service value, which specifies a particular
      GSS pseudoflavor.
      
      For simplicity and efficiency, I'd like to return each GSS tuple
      from the NFSv4 SECINFO XDR decoder and pass it straight into the RPC
      client.
      
      Define a data structure that is visible to both the NFS client and
      the RPC client.  Take structure and field names from the relevant
      standards to avoid confusion.

      SUNRPC: Missing module alias for auth_rpcgss.ko · 71afa85e
      Chuck Lever authored
      Commit f344f6df "SUNRPC: Auto-load RPC authentication kernel
      modules", Mon Mar 20 13:44:08 2006, adds a request_module() call
      in rpcauth_create() to auto-load RPC security modules when a ULP
      tries to create a credential of that flavor.
      
      In rpcauth_create(), the name of the module to load is built like
      this:
      
      	request_module("rpc-auth-%u", flavor);
      
      This means that for, say, RPC_AUTH_GSS, request_module() is looking
      for a module or alias called "rpc-auth-6".
      
      The GSS module is named "auth_rpcgss", and commit f344f6df
      
       does not
      add any new module aliases.  There is also no such alias provided in
      /etc/modprobe.d on my system (Fedora 16).  Without this alias, the
      GSS module is not loaded on demand.
      
      This is used by rpcauth_create().  The pseudoflavor_to_flavor() call
      can return RPC_AUTH_GSS, which is passed to request_module().
