Hi

Here is an updated patch that includes linux/err.h

Bryan

NFS new idmapper

This patch creates a new idmapper system that uses the request-key function to
place a call into userspace to map user and group ids to names.  The old
idmapper was single threaded, which prevented more than one request from running
at a single time.  This means that a user would have to wait for an upcall to
finish before accessing a cached result.

The upcall result is stored on a keyring of type id_resolver.  See the file
Documentation/filesystems/nfs/idmapper.txt for instructions.

+=========
+ID Mapper
+=========
+Id mapper is used by NFS to translate user and group ids into names, and to
+translate user and group names into ids.  Part of this translation involves
+performing an upcall to userspace to request the information.  Id mapper will
+user request-key to perform this upcall and cache the result.  The program
+/usr/sbin/nfs.upcall should be called by request-key, and will perform the
+translation and initialize a key with the resulting information.
+
+ NFS_USE_NEW_IDMAPPER must be selected when configuring the kernel to use this
+ feature.
+
+===========
+Configuring
+===========
+The file /etc/request-key.conf will need to be modified so /sbin/request-key can
+direct the upcall.  The following line should be added:
+
+#OP	TYPE	DESCRIPTION	CALLOUT INFO	PROGRAM ARG1 ARG2 ARG3 ...
+#======	=======	===============	===============	===============================
+create	id_resolver	*	*		/usr/sbin/nfs.upcall %k %d 600
+
+This will direct all id_resolver requests to the program /usr/sbin/nfs.upcall.
+The last parameter, 600, defines how many seconds into the future the key will
+expire.  This parameter is optional for /usr/sbin/nfs.upcall.  When the timeout
+is not specified, nfs.upcall will default to 600 seconds.
+
+id mapper uses for key descriptions:
+	  uid:  Find the UID for the given user
+	  gid:  Find the GID for the given group
+	 user:  Find the user  name for the given UID
+	group:  Find the group name for the given GID
+
+You can handle any of these individually, rather than using the generic upcall
+program.  If you would like to use your own program for a uid lookup then you
+would edit your request-key.conf so it look similar to this:
+
+#OP	TYPE	DESCRIPTION	CALLOUT INFO	PROGRAM ARG1 ARG2 ARG3 ...
+#======	=======	===============	===============	===============================
+create	id_resolver	uid:*	*		/some/other/program  %k %d 600
+create	id_resolver	*	*		/usr/sbin/nfs.upcall %k %d 600
+
+Notice that the new line was added above the line for the generic program.
+request-key will find the first matching line and corresponding program.  In
+this case, /some/other/program will handle all uid lookups and
+/usr/sbin/nfs.upcall will handle gid, user, and group lookups.
+
+See <file:Documentation/keys-request-keys.txt> for more information about the
+request-key function.
+
+
+==========
+nfs.upcall
+==========
+nfs.upcall is designed to be called by request-key, and should not be run "by
+hand".  This program takes two arguments, a serialized key and a key
+description.  The serialized key is first converted into a key_serial_t, and
+then passed as an argument to keyctl_instantiate (both are part of keyutils.h).
+
+The actual lookups are performed by functions found in nfsidmap.h.  nfs.upcall
+determines the correct function to call by looking at the first part of the
+description string.  For example, a uid lookup description will appear as
+"uid:user@domain".
+
+nfs.upcall will return 0 if the key was instantiated, and non-zero otherwise.
