80ec8054fe14ec024ab2e2073cb4a88d20abe7c0 - NFSD: Put cache get-reqs dump attrs under reply

Thu, 23 Apr 2026 19:13:14 +0200

NFSD: Put cache get-reqs dump attrs under replyThe new get-reqs dump operations added to sunrpc_cache.yaml andnfsd.yaml place the "requests" nested attribute under dump.request.A netlink dump carries an empty request; its payload travels backin the reply. Because the spec names no reply attributes, the YNLC code generator synthesizes a forward reference to a_rsp struct that is never defined, breaking any consumer ofthese specs.This first surfaced when Thorsten Leemhuis built tools/net/ynlagainst -next: nfsd-user.h:746: error: field 'obj' has incomplete type struct nfsd_svc_export_get_reqs_rsp obj ... nfsd-user.h:826: error: field 'obj' has incomplete type struct nfsd_expkey_get_reqs_rsp obj ... nfsd-user.c:1211: error: 'nfsd_svc_export_get_reqs_rsp_parse' undeclaredsunrpc_cache.yaml has the same defect in ip-map-get-reqs andunix-gid-get-reqs, but nfsd.yaml errors out first in the Makefile'salphabetical build order and hides the sunrpc failures.These bugs were introduced by incorrect merge conflict resolution.Reported-by: Thorsten Leemhuis Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-nfs/f6a3ca6d-e5cb-4a5c-9af2-8d2b1ce33ef0@leemhuis.info/Fixes: 1045ccf519ce30 ("sunrpc: add netlink upcall for the auth.unix.ip cache")Tested-by: Thorsten Leemhuis Reviewed-by: Jeff Layton Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever List of files: /linux/Documentation/netlink/specs/sunrpc_cache.yaml

Wed, 25 Mar 2026 15:40:33 +0100

sunrpc: add SUNRPC_CMD_CACHE_FLUSH netlink commandAdd a new SUNRPC_CMD_CACHE_FLUSH generic netlink command that allowsuserspace to flush the sunrpc auth caches (ip_map and unix_gid) withoutwriting to /proc/net/rpc/*/flush.An optional SUNRPC_A_CACHE_FLUSH_MASK u32 attribute selects which cachesto flush (bit 1 = ip_map, bit 2 = unix_gid). If the attribute isomitted, all sunrpc caches are flushed.This is used by exportfs to replace its /proc-based cache_flush() with anetlink equivalent, with /proc fallback for older kernels.Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever List of files: /linux/Documentation/netlink/specs/sunrpc_cache.yaml

Wed, 25 Mar 2026 15:40:30 +0100

sunrpc: add netlink upcall for the auth.unix.gid cacheAdd netlink-based cache upcall support for the unix_gid (auth.unix.gid)cache, using the sunrpc generic netlink family.Add unix-gid attribute-set (seqno, uid, gids multi-attr, negative,expiry), unix-gid-reqs wrapper, and unix-gid-get-reqs /unix-gid-set-reqs operations to the sunrpc_cache YAML spec andgenerated headers.Implement sunrpc_nl_unix_gid_get_reqs_dumpit() which snapshots pendingunix_gid cache requests and sends each entry's seqno and uid overnetlink.Implement sunrpc_nl_unix_gid_set_reqs_doit() which parses unix_gidcache responses from userspace (uid, expiry, gids as u32 multi-attror negative flag) and updates the cache via unix_gid_lookup() /sunrpc_cache_update().Wire up unix_gid_notify() callback in unix_gid_cache_template socache misses trigger SUNRPC_CMD_CACHE_NOTIFY multicast events withSUNRPC_CACHE_TYPE_UNIX_GID.Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever List of files: /linux/Documentation/netlink/specs/sunrpc_cache.yaml

af81cb247ca94e4bcfea31ea862cf3aaf955a503 - sunrpc: add a generic netlink family for cache upcalls

Wed, 25 Mar 2026 15:40:28 +0100

sunrpc: add a generic netlink family for cache upcallsThe auth.unix.ip and auth.unix.gid caches live in the sunrpc module,so they cannot use the nfsd generic netlink family. Create a new"sunrpc" generic netlink family with its own "exportd" multicastgroup to support cache upcall notifications for sunrpc-residentcaches.Define a YAML spec (sunrpc_cache.yaml) with a cache-type enum(ip_map, unix_gid), a cache-notify multicast event, and thecorresponding uapi header.Implement sunrpc_cache_notify() in cache.c, which checks forlisteners on the exportd multicast group, builds and sends aSUNRPC_CMD_CACHE_NOTIFY message with the cache-type attribute.Register/unregister the sunrpc_nl_family in init_sunrpc() andcleanup_sunrpc().Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever List of files: /linux/Documentation/netlink/specs/sunrpc_cache.yaml
