Subject: [PATCH 0/2] gssd: prevent race between gssd startup and fstab mounts

I recently proposed a patchset that allows the kernel to figure out
if gssd is running in a more robust fashion than it has in the past.

While reviewing that, Bruce pointed out that that mechanism may cause
us to race with mounts that are happening at init time since the
parent process does not wait until the child is set up when daemonizing.

This patchset aims to correct that by switching gssd to use the
mydaemon() function that we use in other tools for a similar purpose.
Instead of cut and pasting that though like has been done in the past,
I've gone ahead and moved the function into libnfs.a and made the
existing users link that in at compile time.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] gssd: don't let parent exit until child has a chance to scan directory once

With some proposed kernel changes, it won't even attempt to upcall
sometimes if it doesn't appear that gssd is running. This means that
we have a theoretical race between gssd starting up at boot time and
the init process attempting to mount kerberized filesystems.

Fix this by switching gssd to use mydaemon() and having the child
only release the parent after it has processed the directory once.

We now appear to have 2 more or less identical copies of mydaemon in nfs-utils (one in utils/gssd/svcgssd.c and one in utils/idmapd/idmapd.c). Time to make it a common library function?

Makes sense to me, thanks--ACK.

Subject: [PATCH 1/2] nfs-utils: consolidate mydaemon() and release_parent() implementations

We currently have 2 cut-and-paste versions of this code. One for idmapd
and one for svcgssd.[1]

The two are basically equivalent but there are some small differences,
mostly related to how errors in that function are logged. svcgssd uses
printerr() with a priority of 1, which only prints errors if -v was
specified. That doesn't seem to be quite right. Daemonizing errors are
necessarily fatal and should be logged as such. The one for idmapd uses
err(), which always prints to stderr even though we have the xlog
facility set up. Since both have xlog configured at this point, log the
errors using xlog_err() instead.

The only other significant difference I see is that the idmapd version
will open "/" if it's unable to open "/dev/null". I believe that however
was a holdover from an earlier version of that function that did not
error out when we were unable to open a file descriptor. Since the
function does that now, I don't believe we need that fallback anymore.

[1]: technically, we have a third in statd too, but it's different
enough that I don't want to touch it here.

See patch 1 in the series. That's exactly what I did...
