[PATCH 0/3] NFS: Fix SECINFO processing regression

[PATCH 0/3] NFS: Fix SECINFO processing regression

[andros]

From: Andy Adamson <andros@netapp.com>

Iterate over multiple flavors returned by SECINFO. If RPC_AUTH_GSS is in the
secinfo list, fully test (get and auth, credential, and gss_context)

Fix some error paths.

Testing: Minimal testing of the nfs_test_gss_flavor. Will run more tests after
the June 2014 bakeathon

Note: Can supply a patch for SECINFO_NO_name to use nfs4_negotiate_security.

Andy Adamson (3):
  NFS check the return of nfs4_negotiate_security in nfs4_submount
  NFS Return -EPERM if no supported or matching SECINFO flavor
  NFS test SECINFO RPC_AUTH_GSS pseudoflavors for support

[PATCH 2/3] NFS Return -EPERM if no supported or matching SECINFO flavor

[andros]

From: Andy Adamson <andros@netapp.com>

Do not return RPC_AUTH_UNIX if SEINFO reply tests fail. This
prevents an infinite loop of NFS4ERR_WRONGSEC for non RPC_AUTH_UNIX mounts.

Without this patch, a mount with no sec= option to a server
that does not include RPC_AUTH_UNIX in the
SECINFO return can be presented with an attemtp to use RPC_AUTH_UNIX
which will result in an NFS4ERR_WRONG_SEC which will prompt the SECINFO
call which will again try RPC_AUTH_UNIX....

[PATCH 3/3] NFS test SECINFO RPC_AUTH_GSS pseudoflavors for support

[andros]

From: Andy Adamson <andros@netapp.com>

The current code returns an RPC_AUTH_GSS pseudoflavor without testing to see
if it is configured properly. If an RPC_AUTH_GSS pseudoflavor fails then the
next SECINFO flavor should be tried.

Create an rpc_auth, rpc_cred, and initialize the cred (e.g. get a GSS Context)
using the short-lived SECINFO rpc client to test if the use of the RPC_AUTH_GSS
pseudoflavor succeeds.

This call has the side-effect of changing the value of
server->client->cl_auth. Not sure that we want that here.

Why not call rpcauth_lookupcred() instead of open-coding?

Also note that there is a credential refcount leak here (and a
group_info refcount leak).

I don't see any other interface to get a gss_auth struct to pass to rpcauth_lookupcredcache.

If the gss_cred/gss_context creation works, then the cl_auth being set is OK as it would have been set anyway by the callers of nfs4_negotiate_security (nfs4_submount or nfs4_create_sec_client so far) if we simply passed the flavor to those functions to “test” if RPC_AUTH_GSS can be used.

But on failure, you’re right, the cl_auth needs to be reaped. I’ll add a call to rpcauth_release() if nfs_test_gss_flavor() fails and set the cl_auth to NULL - and check that it is actually reaped. Since failure means no gss_context was created it is more simple than otherwise.

I see - it will call rpcauth_lookupcredcache for me (gssand do the put of the group_info as well. Good - I’ll use it.

I’ll make sure this is addressed

Looking at the callers, I think I disagree. They are both trying to do
lookups, so the WRONGSEC error that we're handling applies to the
object being looked up, and not to the parent directory or the struct
nfs_server that is being passed as an argument to nfs_find_best_sec().

Ah. So I should clone a client to test the RPC_AUTH_GSS SECINFO case…
