The language definition was extracted from the new
draft-ietf-nfsv4-posix-acls specification. This ensures good
constant and type name alignment between the spec and the Linux
kernel source code, and brings in some basic XDR utilities for
handling NFSv4 POSIX draft ACLs.

XDR specification files can contain lines prefixed with '%' that
pass through unchanged to generated output. Traditional rpcgen
removes the '%' and emits the remainder verbatim, allowing direct
insertion of C includes, pragma directives, or other language-
specific content into the generated code.
Until now, xdrgen silently discarded these lines during parsing.
This prevented specifications from including necessary headers or
preprocessor directives that might be required for the generated
code to compile correctly.
The grammar now captures pass-through lines instead of ignoring
them. A new AST node type represents pass-through content, and
the AST transformer strips the leading '%' character. Definition
and source generators emit pass-through content in document order,
preserving the original placement within the specification.
This brings xdrgen closer to feature parity with traditional
rpcgen while maintaining the existing document-order processing
model.
Existing generated xdrgen source code has been regenerated.

XDR enum decoders generated by xdrgen do not verify that incoming
values are valid members of the enum. Incoming out-of-range values
from malicious or buggy peers propagate through the system
unchecked.
Add validation logic to generated enum decoders using a switch
statement that explicitly lists valid enumerator values. The
compiler optimizes this to a simple range check when enum values
are dense (contiguous), while correctly rejecting invalid values
for sparse enums with gaps in their value ranges.
The --no-enum-validation option on the source subcommand disables
this validation when not needed.
The minimum and maximum fields in _XdrEnum, which were previously
unused placeholders for a range-based validation approach, have
been removed since the switch-based validation handles both dense
and sparse enums correctly.
Because the new mechanism results in substantive changes to
generated code, existing .x files are regenerated. Unrelated white
space and semicolon changes in the generated code are due to recent
commit 1c873a2fd110 ("xdrgen: Don't generate unnecessary semicolon")
and commit 38c4df91242b ("xdrgen: Address some checkpatch whitespace
complaints").

The xdrgen decoders for strings and opaque data had an
optimization that skipped calling xdr_inline_decode() when the
item length was zero. This left the data pointer uninitialized,
which could lead to unpredictable behavior when callers access
it.
Remove the zero-length check and always call xdr_inline_decode().
When passed a length of zero, xdr_inline_decode() returns the
current buffer position, which is valid and matches the behavior
of hand-coded XDR decoders throughout the kernel.

"short" and "unsigned short" types are not defined in RFC 4506, but
are supported by the rpcgen program. An upcoming protocol
specification includes at least one "unsigned short" field, so xdrgen
needs to implement support for these types.

Add the OPEN4_SHARE_ACCESS_WANT constants from the nfs4.1 and delstid
draft into the nfs4_1.x file, and regenerate the headers and source
files. Do a mass renaming of NFS4_SHARE_WANT_* to
OPEN4_SHARE_ACCESS_WANT_* in the nfsd directory.

directory.

In the long run, the NFS development community intends to autogenerate a
lot of the XDR handling code. Both the NFS client and server include
"include/linux/nfs4.hi". That file was hand-rolled, and some of the symbols
in it conflict with the autogenerated symbols.
Add a small nfs4_1.x to Documentation that currently just has the
necessary definitions for the delstid draft, and generate the relevant
header and source files. Make include/linux/nfs4.h include the generated
include/linux/sunrpc/xdrgen/nfs4_1.h and remove the conflicting
definitions from it and nfs_xdr.h.

The generic parts of the RPC layer need to know the widths (in
XDR_UNIT increments) of the XDR data types defined for each
protocol.
As a first step, add dictionaries to keep track of the symbolic and
actual maximum XDR width of XDR types.
This makes it straightforward to look up the width of a type by its
name. The built-in dictionaries are pre-loaded with the widths of
the built-in XDR types as defined in RFC 4506.

Add a Python-based tool for translating XDR specifications into XDR
encoder and decoder functions written in the Linux kernel's C coding
style. The generator attempts to match the usual C coding style of
the Linux kernel's SunRPC consumers.
This approach is similar to the netlink code generator in
tools/net/ynl .
The maintainability benefits of machine-generated XDR code include:
- Stronger type checking
- Reduces the number of bugs introduced by human error
- Makes the XDR code easier to audit and analyze
- Enables rapid prototyping of new RPC-based protocols
- Hardens the layering between protocol logic and marshaling
- Makes it easier to add observability on demand
- Unit tests might be built for both the tool and (automatically)
for the generated code
In addition, converting the XDR layer to use memory-safe languages
such as Rust will be easier if much of the code can be converted
automatically.
