[PATCH v2 0/4] nfs/nfsd/sunrpc: enforce NFSv4 transport requirements

[Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com>]

v2: comment clarifications, and commit log cleanup. No functional changes.

RFC5661 says:

   NFSv4.1 works over Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) and non-RDMA-
   based transports with the following attributes:


   o  The transport supports reliable delivery of data, which NFSv4.1
      requires but neither NFSv4.1 nor RPC has facilities for ensuring
      [34].

   o  The transport delivers data in the order it was sent.  Ordered
      delivery simplifies detection of transmit errors, and simplifies
      the sending of arbitrary sized requests and responses via the
      record marking protocol [3].

...and then some hand-wavy stuff about congestion control. RFC7530
doesn't mention needing reliable and ordered delivery, but it does need
congestion control.

In practical terms, that means we should be excluding NFSv4 from UDP
transports. The NFS server has never enforced this requirement,
however, so a user could issue NFSv4 calls against the server via UDP.

This patchset adds a small bit of infrastructure to the sunrpc layer to
enforce this requirement, and has the nfs and nfsd layers set the
appropriate flags for it on their server-side transports. It also has
the rpcbind client skip registering the protocol version on a UDP port
when that flag is set.

Lightly tested by hand, but it's fairly straightforward.

Jeff Layton (4):
  sunrpc: turn bitfield flags in svc_version into bools
  sunrpc: flag transports as having both reliable and ordered delivery,
    and congestion control
  nfs/nfsd/sunrpc: enforce transport requirements for NFSv4
  sunrpc: don't register UDP port with rpcbind when version needs
    congestion control
