The purpose of an RPC ping (a NULL request) is to determine whether the
remote end is operating and supports the RPC program and version of the
request.
If we do an RPC bind and the remote's rpcbind service says "this
program or service isn't supported" then we have our answer already,
and we should give up immediately.
This is good for the kernel mount client, as it will cause the request
to fail, and then allow an immediate retry with different options.

Add more new error code processing to the kernel's rpcbind client
and to call_bind_status() to distinguish two cases:
Case 1: the remote has replied that the program/version tuple is not
registered (returns EACCES)
Case 2: retry with a lesser rpcbind version (rpcb now returns EPFNOSUPPORT)
This change allows more specific error processing for each of these two
cases. We now fail case 2 instead of retrying... it's a server
configuration error not to support even rpcbind version 2. And don't
expose this new error code to user land -- convert it to EIO before
failing the RPC.

We want it to be possible for users to restrict exports both by IP address and
by pseudoflavor. The pseudoflavor information has previously been passed
using special auth_domains stored in the rq_client field. After the preceding
patch that stored the pseudoflavor in rq_pflavor, that's now superfluous; so
now we use rq_client for the ip information, as auth_null and auth_unix do.
However, we keep around the special auth_domain in the rq_gssclient field for
backwards compatibility purposes, so we can still do upcalls using the old
"gss/pseudoflavor" auth_domain if upcalls using the unix domain to give us an
appropriate export. This allows us to continue supporting old mountd.
In fact, for this first patch, we always use the "gss/pseudoflavor"
auth_domain (and only it) if it is available; thus rq_client is ignored in the
auth_gss case, and this patch on its own makes no change in behavior; that
will be left to later patches.
Note on idmap: I'm almost tempted to just replace the auth_domain in the idmap
upcall by a dummy value--no version of idmapd has ever used it, and it's
unlikely anyone really wants to perform idmapping differently depending on the
where the client is (they may want to perform *credential* mapping
differently, but that's a different matter--the idmapper just handles id's
used in getattr and setattr). But I'm updating the idmapd code anyway, just
out of general backwards-compatibility paranoia.

Brian Behlendorf writes:
The root cause of the NFS hang we were observing appears to be a rare
deadlock between the kernel provided usermodehelper API and the linux NFS
client. The deadlock can arise because both of these services use the
generic linux work queues. The usermodehelper API run the specified user
application in the context of the work queue. And NFS submits both cleanup
and reconnect work to the generic work queue for handling. Normally this
is fine but a deadlock can result in the following situation.
- NFS client is in a disconnected state
- [events/0] runs a usermodehelper app with an NFS dependent operation,
this triggers an NFS reconnect.
- NFS reconnect happens to be submitted to [events/0] work queue.
- Deadlock, the [events/0] work queue will never process the
reconnect because it is blocked on the previous NFS dependent
operation which will not complete.`
The solution is simply to run reconnect requests on rpciod.
