* sm-notify: sm-notify leaves monitor records in sm.bakChuck Lever2011-09-201-13/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | sm-notify fails to remove monitor records from sm.bak when it has finally notified a host. This is because of a recent change to send two SM_NOTIFY requests for each monitored peer: one with the local host's FQDN, and one with an unqualified version of same. This was commit baa41b2c: "sm-notify: Send fully-qualified and unqualified mon_names" (March 19, 2010). Because of the March 2010 commit, sm-notify modifies the "my_name" string during notification, but then uses this modified string to try to find the monitor record to remove. Of course the search for the record fails. So a persistent monitor record is left in sm.bak. Aside from leaving trash around, this causes the same hosts to be notified after every reboot, even if they successfully responded to the previous SM_NOTIFY and they had no contact with us during the last boot. I also noticed that the trick of truncating the argument of SM_NOTIFY doesn't work at all if a substitute "my_name" was specified via the "-v" command line option. This patch attempts to address that as well. sm-notify should preserve the original my_name string so that nsm_delete_host() can find the correct monitor record to delete. Also add some degree of protection to the mon_name and my_name strings in each nsm_host record to prevent a future change from breaking this dependency.

* sm-notify: Avoid extra rpcbind queriesChuck Lever2011-09-201-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The logic in notify_host() watches the host->retries counter to see if progress is not being made. If progress stalls, notify_host() tries another IP address. This means sm-notify will generate a fresh rpcbind query. After an RPC succeeds, be sure to reset host->retries so sm-notify doesn't start walking down the host's addrinfo list when we _are_ making progress. In the common case, if the host responds, we avoid extra rpcbind queries and send all requests for the host to the same IP address.

* sm-notify: sm-notify doesn't handle localhost properlyChuck Lever2011-08-291-25/+102
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | It looks like the existing algorithm for verifying the passed-in bind address is as broken as statd_matchhostname() used to be: for IP addresses, AI_CANONNAME is useless. We need to have getnameinfo(3) or equivalent in there. Clean up: extract the logic that verifies the command line bind address into its own function, and make it handle canonical name lookup correctly.

It will allow admins to specify service names as well as port numbers on those versions. There are uses of AI_NUMERICSERV in gssd and in nfs_svc_create(). The one in nfs_svc_create() is behind HAVE_LIBTIRPC, and the other is a issue only for those who want to deploy Kerberos -- likely in both cases, a more modern glibc will be present.

* nfs-utils: Remove all uses of AI_ADDRCONFIGChuck Lever2010-11-011-5/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It was reported that, if only "lo" is up, mount.nfs 127.0.0.1:/export /mount fails with "Name or service not known". "man 3 getaddrinfo" says this: If hints.ai_flags includes the AI_ADDRCONFIG flag, then IPv4 addresses are returned in the list pointed to by res only if the local system has at least one IPv4 address configured, and IPv6 addresses are only returned if the local system has at least one IPv6 address configured. The man page oversimplifies here. A review of glibc shows that getaddrinfo(3) explicitly ignores loopback addresses when deciding whether an IPv4 or IPv6 address is configured. This behavior around loopback is a problem not just for mount.nfs, but also for RPC daemons that have to start up before a system's networking is fully configured and started. Given the history of other problems with AI_ADDRCONFIG and the unpredictable behavior it introduces, let's just remove it everywhere in nfs-utils.

* sm-notify: Send fully-qualified and unqualified mon_namesChuck Lever2010-03-191-4/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | During any file locking interaction between an NFS client and server, the client tells the server what hostname it will use as the mon_name argument of the SM_NOTIFY request sent by the client when it reboots. This is the "caller_name" argument of an NLMPROC_LOCK request. The server, however, never tells the client what mon_name argument it will use when sending an SM_NOTIFY request. In order to recognize the server, clients usually guess what mon_name the server might send, by using the server hostname provided by the user on the mount command line. Frequently, the user provides an unqualified server name on the mount command. The server might then call the client back with a fully qualified domain name, which might not match in some cases. Solaris, and perhaps other implementations, attempt to mitigate this problem by sending two SM_NOTIFY requests to each peer: one with an unqualified mon_name argument, and one with a fully qualified mon_name. Implement such a scheme for sm-notify. Since my_name is almost always the fully-qualified hostname associated with the local system, just wiping the left-most '.' in the my_name argument and sending another SM_NOTIFY is nearly always sufficient.

* sm-notify: Use my_name when sending SM_NOTIFY requestsChuck Lever2010-03-171-9/+32
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The mon_name argument of an SM_NOTIFY request is a string that identifies the rebooting host. sm-notify should send the my_name provided by the local lockd at the time the remote was monitored, rather than cocking up a mon_name argument based on the present return value of gethostname(3). If the local system's hostname happened to change after the last reboot, then the string returned by gethostname(3) will not be recognized by the remote. Thus the remote will never initiate lock recovery for the original named host, possibly leaving stale locks. The existing behavior of using the -v command line option as the mon_name argument is preserved, but we now prevent sending an IP presentation address, as some non-Linux implementations don't recognize addresses as valid mon_names.

* libnsm.a: Add support for multiple lines in monitor record filesChuck Lever2010-01-151-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To support IPv6, statd must support multi-homed remote peers. For our purposes, "multi-homed peer" means that more than one unique IP address maps to the one canonical host name for that peer. An SM_MON request from the local lockd has a "mon_name" argument that statd reverse maps to a canonical hostname (ie the A record for that host). statd assumes the canonical hostname is unique enough that it stores the callback data for this mon_name in a file named after that canonical hostname. Because lockd can't distinguish between two unique IP addresses that may be from the same physical host, the kernel can hand statd a mon_name that maps to the same canonical hostname as some previous mon_name. So that the kernel can keep this instance of the mon_name unique, it creates a fresh priv cookie for each new address. Note that a mon_name can be a presentation address string, or the caller_name string sent in each NLMPROC_LOCK request. There's nothing that requires the caller_name to be a fully-qualified hostname, thus it's uniqueness is not guaranteed. The current design of statd assumes that canonical hostnames will be unique enough. When a mon_name for a fresh SM_MON request maps to the same canonical hostname as an existing monitored peer, but the priv cookie is new, statd will try to write the information for the fresh request into an existing monitor record file, wiping out the contents of the file. This is because the mon_name/cookie combination won't match any record statd already has. Currently, statd doesn't check if a record file already exists before writing into it. statd's logic assumes that the svc routine has already checked that no matching record exists in the in-core monitor list. And, it doesn't use O_EXCL when opening the record file. Not only is the old data in that file wiped out, but statd's in-core monitor list will no longer match what's in the on-disk monitor list. Note that IPv6 isn't needed to exercise multi-homed peer support. Any IPv4 peer that has multiple addresses that map to its canonical hostname will trigger this behavior. However, this scenario will become quite common when all hosts on a network automatically get both an IPv4 address and an IPv6 address. I can think of a few ways to address this: 1. Replace the current on-disk format with a database that has a uniqueness constraint on the monitor records 2. Create a new file naming scheme; eg. one that uses a truly unique name such as a hash generated from the mon_name, my_name, and priv cookie 3. Support multiple lines in each monitor record file Since statd's on-disk format constitutes a formal API, options 1 and 2 are right out. This patch implements option 3. There are two parts: adding a new line to an existing file; and deleting a line from a file with more than one line. Interestingly, the existing code already supports reading more than one line from these files, so we don't need to add extra code here to do that. One file may contain a line for every unique mon_name / priv cookie where the mon_name reverse maps to the same canonical hostname. We use the atomic write facility added by a previous patch to ensure the on-disk monitor record list is updated atomically. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Socket creation is unfortunately complicated by the need to handle the case where sm-notify is built with IPv6 support, but the local system has disabled it entirely at run-time (ie, socket(3) returns EAFNOSUPPORT when we try to create an AF_INET6 socket). The run-time address family setting is made available in the global variable nsm_family.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, if getaddrinfo(3) fails when trying to resolve a hostname, sm-notify gives up immediately on that host. If sm-notify is started before network service is available on a system, that means it quits without notifying anyone. Or, if DNS service isn't available due to a network partition or because the DNS server crashed, sm-notify will simply remove all of its callback files and exit. Really, sm-notify should try harder. We know that the hostnames passed in to notify_host() have already been vetted by statd, which won't monitor a hostname that it can't resolve. So it's likely that any DNS failure we meet here is a temporary condition. If it isn't, then sm-notify will stop trying to notify that host in 15 minutes anyway. [ The host's file is left in /var/lib/nfs/sm.bak in this case, but sm.bak is not read again until the next time sm-notify runs. ] sm-notify already has retry logic for handling RPC timeouts. We can co-opt that to drive DNS resolution retries. We also add AI_ADDRCONFIG because on systems whose network startup is handled by NetworkManager, there appears to be a bug that causes processes that started calling getaddinfo(3) before the network came up to continue getting EAI_AGAIN even after the network is fully operating. As I understand it, legacy glibc (before AI_ADDRCONFIG was exposed in headers) sets AI_ADDRCONFIG by default, although I haven't checked this. In any event, pre-glibc-2.2 systems probably won't run NetworkManager anyway, so this may not be much of a problem for them.

* sm-notify: Don't orphan addrinfo structsChuck Lever2009-05-181-13/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | sm-notify orphans an addrinfo struct in its address list rotation logic if only a single result was returned from getaddrinfo(3). For each host, the first time through notify_host(), we want to send a PMAP_GETPORT request. ->ai is NULL, and retries is set to 100, forcing a DNS lookup and an address rotation. If only a single addrinfo struct is returned, the rotation logic causes a NULL to be planted in ->ai, copied from the ai_next field of the returned result. This means that the second time through notify_host() (to perform the actual SM_NOTIFY call) we do a second DNS lookup, since ->ai is NULL. The result of the first lookup has been orphaned, and extra network traffic is generated. This scenario is actually fairly common. Since we pass .ai_protocol = IPPROTO_UDP, to getaddrinfo(3), for most hosts, which have a single forward and reverse pointer in the DNS database, we get back a single addrinfo struct as a result. To address this problem, only perform the address list rotation if there is more than one element on the list returned by getaddrinfo(3).

There is no need. For sockets that we send messages on, that are long-lived, and that might need to appear 'privileged', avoid using a number that is registered in /etc/services if possible.

* sm-notify - compile and installNeil Brown2007-03-201-0/+1
| | | | | Add sm-notify to the compile/install scripts, (and fix a compile warning).
* sm-notify - drop privileges before receiving packets from network.Neil Brown2007-03-201-0/+31
| | | | | If /var/lib/nfs/sm is owned by non-root, setuid to that uid after opening sockets but before receiving answers.
* Prevent sm-notify from being run multiple times per reboot.Neil Brown2007-03-201-2/+35
| | | | | | | | | As "mount.nfs" can start statd, and as statd can start sm-notify, the risk of sm-notify being run multiple times increases. As this is not normally appropriate, sm-notify now creates a file in /var/run which will stop future instances from being run (though ofcourse this behaviour can be controlled by a new command line option).
* sm-notify: remove addr_parseNeil Brown2007-03-201-22/+2
| | | | | This functionality is alreday present in getaddrinfo so it isn't needed explicitly.
* sm-notify: Allow base path to be set by command line option.Neil Brown2007-03-201-4/+26
