The wording in RFC 2623, sec 2.3.2. allows fsinfo with UNIX authentication on the root of the export. Mounts are not always done on the root of the exported tree. Especially autoumounts often mount below the root of the exported tree. Some server implementations (justly) require full authentication for the so-called deep mounts. The old code used AUTH_SYS only. This caused deep mounts to fail on systems requiring stronger authentication.. The client should try both authentication types and use the first one that succeeds. This method was already partially implemented. This patch completes the implementation for NFS2 and NFS3. This patch was developed to allow Debian systems to automount home directories on Solaris servers with krb5 authentication. Tested on kernel 2.6.24-etchnhalf.1 Signed-off-by: E.G.

Thanks. For some reason, if I look at your mail in a text editor I see an extra space at the beginning of each line. Which prevents patch from applying it. Anyway, with that fixed up, and some other trivial changes, the below is what I get. Makes sense to me; Trond? --b. diff --git a/fs/nfs/nfs3proc.c b/fs/nfs/nfs3proc.c index 1e750e4..c55be7a 100644 --- a/fs/nfs/nfs3proc.c +++ b/fs/nfs/nfs3proc.c @@ -699,7 +699,7 @@ nfs3_proc_statfs(struct nfs_server *server, struct nfs_fh *fhandle, } static int -nfs3_proc_fsinfo(struct nfs_server *server, struct nfs_fh *fhandle, +do_proc_fsinfo(struct rpc_clnt *client, struct nfs_fh *fhandle, struct nfs_fsinfo *info) { struct rpc_message msg = { @@ -711,11 +711,27 @@ nfs3_proc_fsinfo(struct nfs_server *server, struct nfs_fh *fhandle, dprintk("NFS call fsinfo\n"); nfs_fattr_init(info->fattr); - status = rpc_call_sync(server->nfs_client->cl_rpcclient, &msg, 0); + status = rpc_call_sync(client, &msg, 0); dprintk("NFS reply fsinfo: %d\n", status); return status; } +/* + * Bare-bones access to fsinfo: this is for nfs_get_root/nfs_get_sb via + * nfs_create_server + */ +static int +nfs3_proc_fsinfo(struct nfs_server *server, struct nfs_fh *fhandle, + struct nfs_fsinfo *info) +{ + int status; + + status = do_proc_fsinfo(server->client, fhandle, info); + if (status && server->nfs_client->cl_rpcclient != server->client) + status = do_proc_fsinfo(server->nfs_client->cl_rpcclient, fhandle, info); + return status; +} + static int nfs3_proc_pathconf(struct nfs_server *server, struct nfs_fh *fhandle, struct nfs_pathconf *info) diff --git a/fs/nfs/proc.c b/fs/nfs/proc.c index 4dbb84d..1934652 100644 --- a/fs/nfs/proc.c +++ b/fs/nfs/proc.c @@ -65,14 +65,20 @@ nfs_proc_get_root(struct nfs_server *server, struct nfs_fh *fhandle, dprintk("%s: call getattr\n", __func__); nfs_fattr_init(fattr); - status = rpc_call_sync(server->nfs_client->cl_rpcclient, &msg, 0); + status = rpc_call_sync(server->client, &msg, 0); + /* Retry with default authentication if different */ + if (status && server->nfs_client->cl_rpcclient != server->client) + status = rpc_call_sync(server->nfs_client->cl_rpcclient, &msg, 0); dprintk("%s: reply getattr: %d\n", __func__, status); if (status) return status; dprintk("%s: call statfs\n", __func__); msg.rpc_proc = &nfs_procedures[NFSPROC_STATFS]; msg.rpc_resp = &fsinfo; - status = rpc_call_sync(server->nfs_client->cl_rpcclient, &msg, 0); + status = rpc_call_sync(server->client, &msg, 0); + /* Retry with default authentication if different */ + if (status && server->nfs_client->cl_rpcclient != server->client) + status = rpc_call_sync(server->nfs_client->cl_rpcclient, &msg, 0); dprintk("%s: reply statfs: %d\n", __func__, status); if (status) return status; -- 1.5.5.rc1
