New Revision: 192674
URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/192674
Log:
Modify nfsd.c to add support for the experimental nfs server.
This includes the addition of a new flag "-4" that will force
use of the experimental server with nfsv4 support in it. This
commit also adds two new man pages to the repository that are
NFSv4 specific. One describes the file used by the server to
restart nfsv4 services safely. The other is a brief overview
of nfsv4 and its setup.

+.Sh NAME
+.Nm nfsv4
+.Nd NFS Version 4 Protocol
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+experimental client and server with NFSv4 support
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The experimental nfs client and server provides support for the
+.Tn NFSv4
+specification; see
+.%T "Network File System (NFS) Version 4 Protocol \\*(tNRFC\\*(sP 3530" .
+The protocol is somewhat similar to NFS Version 3, but differs in significant
+ways. It uses a single Compound RPC that concatenates operations to-gether.
+Each of these operations are similar to the RPCs of NFS Version 3.
+The operations in the compound are performed in order, until one of
+them fails (returns an error) and then the RPC terminates at that point.
+.Pp
+It has
+integrated locking support, which implies that the server is no longer
+stateless. As such, the
+.Tn NFSv4
+server remains in recovery mode for a Grace period (always greater than the
+lease duration the server uses) after a reboot.
+During this Grace period, clients may recover state but not perform other
+open/lock state changing operations.
+To provide for correct recovery semantics, a small file described by
+.Xr stablerestart 5
+is used by the server during the recovery phase. If this file is missing,
+the server will not start.
+If this file is lost, it should be recovered from backups, since creating
+an empty
+.Xr stablerestart 5
+file will result in the server starting without providing a Grace Period
+for recovery.
+Note that recovery only occurs when the server
+machine is rebooted, not when the
+.Xr nfsd 8
+are just restarted.
+.Pp
+It provides several optional features not in NFS Version 3:
+.sp
+.Bd -literal -offset indent -compact
+- NFS Version 4 ACLs
+- Referrals, which redirect subtrees to other servers
+ (not yet implemented)
+- Delegations, which allow a client to operate on a file locally
+.Ed
+.Pp
+The
+.Tn NFSv4
+protocol does not use a separate mount protocol and assumes that the
+server provides a single file system tree structure, rooted at the point
+in the local file system tree specified by the
+.sp 1
+.Bd -literal -offset indent -compact
+V4: <rootdir>
+.Ed
+.sp 1
+line in
+.Xr exports 5 .
+The
+.Xr nfsd 8
+allows a limited subset of operations to be performed on non-exported subtrees
+of the local file system, so that traversal of the tree to the exported
+subtrees is possible.
+As such, the ``<rootdir>'' can be in a non-exported file system. However,
+the entire tree that is rooted at that point must be in local file systems
+that are of types that can be NFS exported.
+Since the
+.Nm
+file system is rooted at ``<rootdir>'', setting this to anything other
+than ``/'' will result in clients being required to use different mount
+paths for
+.Nm
+than for NFS Version 2 or 3.
+Unlike NFS Version 2 and 3, Version 4 allows a client mount to span across
+multiple server file systems, although not all clients are capable of doing
+this.
+.Pp
+.Nm
+uses names for users and groups instead of numbers. On the wire, they
+take the form:
+.sp
+.Bd -literal -offset indent -compact
+<user>@<dns.domain>
+.Ed
+.sp
+where ``<dns.domain>'' is not the same as the DNS domain used
+for host name lookups, but is usually set to the same string. Most systems set this ``<dns.domain>''
+to the domain name part of the machine's
+.Xr hostname 1
+by default. However, this can normally be overridden by a command line
+option or configuration file for the daemon used to do the name<->number
+mapping.
+On FreeBSD, the mapping daemon is called
+.Xr nfsuserd 8
+and has a command line option that overrides the domain component of the
+machine's hostname.
+This can be set in
+.Xr rc.conf 5
+via the nfsv4_userd_flags variable.
+For use of
+.Nm ,
+either client or server, this daemon must be enabled by setting
+.sp
+.Bd -literal -offset indent -compact
+nfsv4_enable="YES"
+.Ed
+.sp
+in
+.Xr rc.conf 5 .
+If this ``<dns.domain>'' is not set correctly or the daemon is not running, ``ls -l'' will typically
+report a lot of ``nobody'' and ``nogroup'' ownerships.
+.Pp
+Although numbers are no longer used in the
+.Nm
+protocol, they will still be in the RPC authentication fields when running
+using AUTH_SYS (sec=sys), which is the default.
+As such, in this case both the user/group name and number spaces must
+be consistent between the client and server.
+.Pp
+However, if you run
+.Nm
+with RPCSEC_GSS (sec=krb5, krb5i, krb5p), only names and KerberosV tickets
+will go on the wire.
+.Sh SERVER SETUP
+.Pp
+To set up the experimental nfs server that supports
+.Nm
+you will need to either build a kernel with:
+.sp
+.Bd -literal -offset indent -compact
+options NFSD
+.Ed
+and not
+.Bd -literal -offset indent -compact
+options NFSSERVER
+.Ed
+.sp
+or start
+.Xr mountd 8
+and
+.Xr nfsd 8
+with the ``-4'' option to force use of the experimental server.
+This will occur if
+.sp
+.Bd -literal -offset indent -compact
+nfsv4_enable="YES"
+.Ed
+.sp
+is set in
+.Xr rc.conf 5 ,
+as above.
+.Pp
+You will also need to add a:
+.sp
+.Bd -literal -offset indent -compact
+V4: <rootdir>
+.Ed
+.sp
+line to the
+.Xr exports 5
+file, to tell the server where the
+.Nm
+tree is rooted.
+.Pp
+If the file systems you are exporting are only being accessed via
+.Nm
+there are a couple of
+.Xr sysctl 8
+variables that you can change, which might improve performance.
+.Bl -tag -width Ds
+.It Cm vfs.newnfs.issue_delegations
+when set non-zero, allows the server to issue Open Delegations to
+clients. These delegations permit the client to manipulate the file
+locally on the client. Unfortunately, at this time, client use of
+delegations is limited, so performance gains may not be observed.
+This can only be enabled when the file systems being exported to
+.Nm
+clients are not being accessed locally on the server and, if being
+accessed via NFS Version 2 or 3 clients, these clients cannot be
+using the NLM.
+.It Cm vfs.newnfs.enable_locallocks
+can be set to 0 to disable acquisition of local byte range locks.
+Disabling local locking can only be done if neither local accesses
+to the exported file systems nor the NLM is operating on them.
+.El
+.sp
+Note that Samba server access would be considered ``local access'' for the above
+discussion.
+.Pp
+To build a kernel with the experimental
+.Nm
+linked into it, the
+.sp
+.Bd -literal -offset indent -compact
+options NFSD
+.Ed
+.sp
+must be specified in the kernel's
+.Xr config 5
+file.
+.Sh CLIENT MOUNTS
+.Pp
+To do an
+.Nm
+mount, specify the ``nfsv4'' option on the
+.Xr mount_nfs 8
+command line.
+This will force use of the experimental client plus set ``tcp'' and
+.Nm .
+.Pp
+If the
+.Nm
+server that is being mounted on supports delegations, you can set
+.sp
+.Bd -literal -offset indent -compact
+nfsv4_callbackdaemon_enable="YES"
+.Ed
+.sp
+via
+.Xr rc.conf 5
+so that the client side callback daemon
+.Xr nfscbd 8
+is started upon boot.
+Without a functioning callback path, a server will never issue Delegations
+to a client.
+.sp
+By default, the callback address will be set to the IP address acquired via
+rtalloc() in the kernel and port# 7745.
+To override the default port#, a command line option for
+.Xr nfscbd 8
+can be set via the variable
+.sp
+.Bd -literal -offset indent -compact
+nfsv4_callbackdaemon_flag
+.Ed
+.sp
+using
+.Xr rc.conf 5 .
+.sp
+To get callbacks to work when behind a NAT gateway, a port for the callback
+service will need to be set up on the NAT gateway and then the address
+of the NAT gateway (host IP plus port#) will need to be set by assigning the
+.Xr sysctl 8
+variable vfs.newnfs.callback_addr to a string of the form:
+.sp
+N.N.N.N.N.N
+.sp
+where the first 4 Ns are the host IP address and the last two are the
+port# in network byte order (all decimal #s in the range 0-255).
+.Pp
+To build a kernel with the experimental
+.Nm
+client linked into it, the option
+.sp
+.Bd -literal -offset indent -compact
+options NFSCL
+.Ed
+.sp
+must be specified in the kernel's
+.Xr config 5
+file.

+At this time, there is no recall of delegations for local file system

+that are being used soley as NFS export volumes and are not being accessed
+via local system calls nor services such as Samba.

+.Sh NAME
+.Nm nfs-stablerestart
+.Nd handles restart edge conditions for the
+.Tn NFS
+V4 server
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Nm nfs-stablerestart
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+file holds information that allows the
+.Tn NFS
+V4 server to restart without always returning the NFSERR_NOGRACE error, as described in the
+.Tn NFS V4
+server specification; see
+.%T "Network File System (NFS) Version 4 Protocol \\*(tNRFC\\*(sP 3530, Section 8.6.3" .
+.Pp
+The first record in the file, as defined by struct nfsf_rec in
+/usr/include/fs/nfs/nfsrvstate.h, holds the lease duration of the
+last incarnation of the server and the number of boot times that follows.
+Following this are the number of previous boot times listed in the
+first record.
+The lease duration is used to set the Grace Period.
+The boot times
+are used to avoid the unlikely occurrence of a boot time being reused,
+due to a TOD clock going backwards. This record and the previous boot times with this boot time added is re-written at the
+end of the Grace Period.
+.Pp
+The rest of the file are appended records, as defined by
+struct nfst_rec in /usr/include/fs/nfs/nfsrvstate.h and are used
+represent one of two things. There are records which indicate that a
+client successfully aquired state and records that indicate a client's state was revoked.
+State revoke records indicate that state information
+for a client was discarded, due to lease expiry and an otherwise
+conflicting open or lock request being made by a different client.
+These records can be used
+to determine if clients might have done either of the
+edge conditions.
+.Pp
+If a client might have done either edge condition or this file is
+empty or corrupted, the server returns NFSERR_NOGRACE for any reclaim
+request from the client.
+.Pp
+For correct operation of the server, it must be ensured that the file
+is written to stable storage by the time a write op with IO_SYNC specified
+has returned. This might require hardware level caching to be disabled for
+a local disk drive that holds the file, or similar.

+.Sh BUGS
+If the file is empty, the NFS V4 server has no choice but to return
+NFSERR_NOGRACE for all Reclaim requests. Although correct, this is
+a highly undesirable occurrence, so the file should not be lost if
+at all possible. Nfsd will not create the file if it does not
+exist and will simply log a failure to start, in the hopes that the
+file can be recovered from a backup. To move the file, you must edit
+the nfsd sources and recompile it. This was done to discourage
+accidental relocation of the file.
