[PATCH 0/2] nfsd: add principal to the data being tracked by nfsdcld

[PATCH 0/2] nfsd: add principal to the data being tracked by nfsdcld

[Scott Mayhew]

At the spring bakeathon, Chuck suggested that we should store the
kerberos principal in addition to the client id string in nfsdcld.  The
idea is to prevent an illegitimate client from reclaiming another
client's opens by supplying that client's id string.

The first patch lays some groundwork for supporting multiple message
versions for the nfsdcld upcalls, adding fields for version and message
length to the nfsd4_client_tracking_ops (these fields are only used for
the nfsdcld upcalls and ignored for the other tracking methods), as well
as an upcall to get the maximum version supported by the userspace
daemon.

The second patch actually adds the v2 message, which adds the principal
(actually just the first 1024 bytes) to the Cld_Create upcall and to the
Cld_GraceStart downcall (which is what loads the data in the
reclaim_str_hashtbl). I couldn't really figure out what the maximum length
of a kerberos principal actually is (looking at krb5.h the length field in
the struct krb5_data is an unsigned int, so I guess it can be pretty big).
I don't think the principal will be that large in practice, and even if
it is the first 1024 bytes should be sufficient for our purposes.

  nfsd: add a "GetVersion" upcall for nfsdcld
  nfsd: add support for upcall version 2

[PATCH 1/2] nfsd: add a "GetVersion" upcall for nfsdcld

[Scott Mayhew]

Add a "GetVersion" upcall to allow nfsd to determine the maximum upcall
version that the nfsdcld userspace daemon supports.  If the daemon
responds with -EOPNOTSUPP, then we know it only supports v1.

[PATCH 2/2] nfsd: add support for upcall version 2

[Scott Mayhew]

Version 2 upcalls will allow the nfsd to include the kerberos principal
string (actually the first 1024 bytes of it) in the Cld_Create upcall.
If a principal is present in the svc_cred, then it will be included in
the Cld_Create upcall.  Upon a subsequent restart, the principal will be
returned in the Cld_Gracestart downcall and stored in the
reclaim_str_hashtbl so it can be used when handling reclaim opens.

Although it is unlikely, in most scenarios to have a principal name
longer than 1024 characters, it is definitely not impossible, given the
principal name for hosts is generally compose of 3 components:
- a short service name
- a fully qualified hostname
- a realm name

The service name is generally "nfs" or "host" in the NFSv4 case,
however the realm name can be arbitrarily large and usually is the
capitalized domain name where the realm resides.

While thinking about this I wondered, why not simply hash (SHA-256 for
example) the principal name and store the hash instead?

It will make the length fixed and uniform and probably often shorter
than the real principal names, so saving space in the general case.

I am not against truncating to 1024, but a hash would be more elegant
and correct.

Simo.

Right now I'm using the svc_cred.cr_principal, which doesn't include
the realm.  The reason I chose that was because it's set by both
gssproxy and rpc.svcgssd.  I suppose I can check
svc_cred.cr_raw_princpal first and then fall back to
svc_cred.cr_principal.

I can do that.  Is there any reason I would want to convert the hash to
to a human-readable format (i.e. something that would match the
sha256sum command-line tool's output) or can I just use the raw buffer?
Note that if we wanted to print the hash in an error message or
something, I can just use printk's %*phN format specifier...
