H A Dxdr.h6650239a Sat Jan 08 16:45:38 CST 2011 Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com> NFS: Don't use vm_map_ram() in readdir

vm_map_ram() is not available on NOMMU platforms, and causes trouble
on incoherrent architectures such as ARM when we access the page data
through both the direct and the virtual mapping.

The alternative is to use the direct mapping to access page data
for the case when we are not crossing a page boundary, but to copy
the data into a linear scratch buffer when we are accessing data
that spans page boundaries.

H A Dnfs4xdr.cd1205f87 Fri Jan 28 11:41:05 CST 2011 Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> NFS: NFSv4 readdir loses entries

On recent 2.6.38-rc kernels, connectathon basic test 6 fails on
NFSv4 mounts of OpenSolaris with something like:

> ./test6: readdir
> ./test6: (/mnt/klimt/matisse.test) didn't read expected 'file.12' dir entry, pass 0
> ./test6: (/mnt/klimt/matisse.test) didn't read expected 'file.82' dir entry, pass 0
> ./test6: (/mnt/klimt/matisse.test) didn't read expected 'file.164' dir entry, pass 0
> ./test6: (/mnt/klimt/matisse.test) Test failed with 3 errors
> basic tests failed
> Tests failed, leaving /mnt/klimt mounted
> [cel@matisse cthon04]$

I narrowed the problem down to nfs4_decode_dirent() reporting that the
decode buffer had overflowed while decoding the entries for those
missing files.

verify_attr_len() assumes both it's pointer arguments reside on the
same page. When these arguments point to locations on two different
pages, verify_attr_len() can report false errors. This can happen now
that a large NFSv4 readdir result can span pages.

We have reasonably good checking in nfs4_decode_dirent() anyway, so
it should be safe to simply remove the extra checking.

At a guess, this was introduced by commit 6650239a, "NFS: Don't use
vm_map_ram() in readdir".
