Olga KornievskaiaandTrond Myklebust 5d3869a41f NFS: fix writeback in presence of errors
After running xfstest generic/751, in certain conditions, can have
a writeback IO stuck while experiencing one of the two patterns.

Pattern#1: writeback IO experiences ENOSPC on an offset smaller
than the filesize. Example,
write offset=0 len=4096 how=unstable OK
write offset=8192 len=4096 how=unstable OK
write offset=12288 len=4096 how=unstable ENOSPC
write offset=4096 len=4096 how=unstable ENOSPC
client sends a commit and receives a verifier which is different
from the last successful write. It marks pages dirty and writeback
retries. But it again send writes unstable and gets into the same
pattern, running into the ENOSPC error and sending a commit because
writes were sent at unstable.

Pattern#2: an unstable write followed by a short write and ENOSPC.
write offset=0 len=4096 how=unstable OK
write offset=4096 len=4096 how=unstable returns OK but count=100
write offset=4197 len=3996 how=stable returns ENOSPC
client send a commit and receives a verifier different from
the last unstable write. The same behaviour is retried in a loop.

Instead, this patch proposes to identify those conditions and mark
requests to be done synchronously instead. Previous solution tried
to mark it in the nfs_page, however that's not persistent thus
instead mark it in the nfs_open_context.

Furthermore, the same problem occurs during localio code path so
recognize that IO needs to be done sync in that case as well.

Olga KornievskaiaandTrond Myklebust 3a06bac55b NFS: improve "Server wrote zero bytes" error
When a pnfs error occurs, the IO is retried against the MDS. However,
the initial IO leads to the kernel logging "Serer wrote zero bytes"
when in fact the MDS IO will not fail and thus the error misleads
administrators that the system is experiencing issues.

When pnfs IO fails which triggers pnfs_write_done_resent_to_mds() which
would end up clearing nfs_pgio_header's pages structure (copying the
content into a new one to do new RPC calls to the MDS). Thus,
in nfs_writeback_result() when we have no pages to work with no need
to try and also therefore skip logging the message about 0bytes.

Kees Cook 69050f8d6d treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types
This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:

Single allocations:	kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)

Array allocations:	kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)

Flex array allocations:	kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)

(where TYPE may also be *VAR)

The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

Trond Myklebust cce0be6eb4 NFS: Fix a deadlock involving nfs_release_folio()
Wang Zhaolong reports a deadlock involving NFSv4.1 state recovery
waiting on kthreadd, which is attempting to reclaim memory by calling
nfs_release_folio(). The latter cannot make progress due to state
recovery being needed.

It seems that the only safe thing to do here is to kick off a writeback
of the folio, without waiting for completion, or else kicking off an
asynchronous commit.

Scott MayhewandAnna Schumaker 9ff022f382 NFS: check if suid/sgid was cleared after a write as needed
I noticed xfstests generic/193 and generic/355 started failing against
knfsd after commit e7a8ebc305 ("NFSD: Offer write delegation for OPEN
with OPEN4_SHARE_ACCESS_WRITE").

I ran those same tests against ONTAP (which has had write delegation
support for a lot longer than knfsd) and they fail there too... so
while it's a new failure against knfsd, it isn't an entirely new
failure.

Add the NFS_INO_REVAL_FORCED flag so that the presence of a delegation
doesn't keep the inode from being revalidated to fetch the updated mode.

Trond MyklebustandAnna Schumaker 902893e390 NFS: Enable use of the RWF_DONTCACHE flag on the NFS client
The NFS client needs to defer dropbehind until after any writes to the
folio have been persisted on the server. Since this may be a 2 step
process, use folio_end_writeback_no_dropbehind() to allow release of the
writeback flag, and then call folio_end_dropbehind() once the COMMIT is
done.

Jeff LaytonandAnna Schumaker 9082aae154 sunrpc: remove dfprintk_cont() and dfprintk_rcu_cont()
KERN_CONT hails from a simpler time, when SMP wasn't the norm. These
days, it doesn't quite work right since another printk() can always race
in between the first one and the one being "continued".

Nothing calls dprintk_rcu_cont(), so just remove it. The only caller of
dprintk_cont() is in nfs_commit_release_pages(). Just use a normal
dprintk() there instead, since this is not SMP-safe anyway.

Trond Myklebust 76d2e3890f NFS: Fix a race when updating an existing write
After nfs_lock_and_join_requests() tests for whether the request is
still attached to the mapping, nothing prevents a call to
nfs_inode_remove_request() from succeeding until we actually lock the
page group.
The reason is that whoever called nfs_inode_remove_request() doesn't
necessarily have a lock on the page group head.

So in order to avoid races, let's take the page group lock earlier in
nfs_lock_and_join_requests(), and hold it across the removal of the
request in nfs_inode_remove_request().
