Subject: [PATCH 1/2] SUNRPC: Register both netids for AF_INET6 servers

TI-RPC is a user-space library of RPC functions that replaces ONC RPC
and allows RPC to operate in the new world of IPv6.

TI-RPC combines the concept of a transport protocol (UDP and TCP)
and a protocol family (PF_INET and PF_INET6) into a single identifier
called a "netid." For example, "udp" means UDP over IPv4, and "udp6"
means UDP over IPv6.

For rpcbind, then, the RPC service tuple that is registered and
advertised is:

[RPC program, RPC version, service address and port, netid]

instead of

[RPC program, RPC version, port, protocol]

Service address is typically ANYADDR, but can be a specific address
of one of the interfaces on a multi-homed host. The third item in
the new tuple is expressed as a universal address.

The current Linux rpcbind implementation registers a netid for both
protocol families when RPCB_SET is done for just the PF_INET6 version
of the netid (ie udp6 or tcp6). So registering "udp6" causes a
registration for "udp" to appear automatically as well.

We've recently determined that this is incorrect behavior. In the
TI-RPC world, "udp6" is not meant to imply that the registered RPC
service handles requests from AF_INET as well, even if the listener
socket does address mapping. "udp" and "udp6" are entirely separate
capabilities, and must be registered separately.

The Linux kernel, unlike TI-RPC, leverages address mapping to allow a
single listener socket to handle requests for both AF_INET and AF_INET6.
This is still OK, but the kernel currently assumes registering "udp6"
will cover "udp" as well. It registers only "udp6" for it's AF_INET6
services, even though they handle both AF_INET and AF_INET6 on the same
port.

So svc_register() actually needs to register both "udp" and "udp6"
explicitly (and likewise for TCP). Until rpcbind is fixed, the
kernel can ignore the return code for the second RPCB_SET call.

Please merge this with commit 15231312:

/*
- * Registering kernel RPC services with rpcbind version 2 will work
- * over either IPv4 or IPv6, since the Linux kernel always registers
- * services for the "any" address.
- *
- * However, the local rpcbind daemon listens on either only AF_INET
- * or AF_INET6 (never both). When it listens on AF_INET6, an rpcbind
- * version 2 registration will result in registering the service at
- * IN6ADDR_ANY, even if the RPC service being registered is not
- * IPv6-enabled.
+ * Register an "inet" protocol family netid with the local
+ * rpcbind daemon via an rpcbind v4 SET request.
*
- * Rpcbind version 4 allows us to be a little more specific. Kernel
- * RPC services that don't yet support AF_INET6 can register
- * themselves as IPv4-only with the local rpcbind daemon, even if the
- * daemon is listening only on AF_INET6.
+ * No netconfig infrastructure is available in the kernel, so
+ * we map IP_ protocol numbers to netids by hand.
*
- * And, registering IPv6-enabled kernel RPC services via AF_INET6
- * verifies that the local user space rpcbind daemon is properly
- * configured to support remote AF_INET6 rpcbind requests.
- *
- * An AF_INET6 registration request will fail if the local rpcbind
- * daemon is not set up to listen on AF_INET6. Likewise, we fail
- * AF_INET6 registration requests if svc_register() is configured to
- * support only rpcbind version 2.
