SUNRPC: Support registering IPv6 interfaces with local rpcbind daemon

2008-07-15T22:08:55+00:00

Introduce a new API to register RPC services on IPv6 interfaces to allow
the NFS server and lockd to advertise on IPv6 networks.

Unlike rpcb_register(), the new rpcb_v4_register() function uses rpcbind
protocol version 4 to contact the local rpcbind daemon.  The version 4
SET/UNSET procedures allow services to register address families besides
AF_INET, register at specific network interfaces, and register transport
protocols besides UDP and TCP.  All of this functionality is exposed via
the new rpcb_v4_register() kernel API.

A user-space rpcbind daemon implementation that supports version 4 of the
rpcbind protocol is required in order to make use of this new API.

Note that rpcbind version 3 is sufficient to support the new rpcbind
facilities listed above, but most extant implementations use version 4.

rpc: bring back cl_chatty

2008-07-09T16:09:10+00:00

The cl_chatty flag alows us to control whether a given rpc client leaves

	"server X not responding, timed out"

messages in the syslog.  Such messages make sense for ordinary nfs
clients (where an unresponsive server means applications on the
mountpoint are probably hanging), but not for the callback client (which
can fail more commonly, with the only result just of disabling some
optimizations).

Previously cl_chatty was removed, do to lack of users; reinstate it, and
use it for the nfsd's callback client.

SUNRPC: Use appropriate argument types in rpcb client

2008-01-30T07:06:09+00:00

Clean up: Follow recommendations of Chapter 5 of Documentation/CodingStyle
and use "u32" instead of "__u32" for types in definitions that are not
shared with user space.

SUNRPC: fewer conditionals in the format_ip_address routines

2008-01-30T07:06:04+00:00

Clean up: have the set up routines explicitly pass the strings to be used
for the transport name and NETID.  This removes a number of conditionals
and dependencies on rpc_xprt.prot, which is overloaded.

Tighten up type checking on the address_strings array while we're at it.

SUNRPC: Add support for per-client timeout values

2008-01-30T07:05:59+00:00

In order to be able to support setting the timeo and retrans parameters on
a per-mountpoint basis, we move the rpc_timeout structure into the
rpc_clnt.
