Allow READ using write delegation stateid granted on OPENs with
OPEN4_SHARE_ACCESS_WRITE only, to accommodate clients whose WRITE
implementation may unavoidably do (e.g., due to buffer cache
constraints).

When the server offers a write delegation for an OPEN with
OPEN4_SHARE_ACCESS_WRITE, the file access mode, the nfs4_file
and nfs4_ol_stateid are upgraded as if the OPEN was sent with
OPEN4_SHARE_ACCESS_BOTH.

When this delegation is returned or revoked, the corresponding open
stateid is looked up and if it's found then the file access mode,
the nfs4_file and nfs4_ol_stateid are downgraded to remove the read
access.

You can't just do this. Open upgrade/downgrade doesn't exist at the VFS
layer currently. It might work with most local filesystems, but more
complex filesystems have significant context attached to a file. Just
because you've changed it here, doesn't mean that you will _actually_
be able to do reads using it.

I think allowing read using a write delegation from a OPEN with
WRONLY is an optional feature and is not a requirement from the
spec. So if there are filesystems that do not allow this feature
to work then it is ok; we did not introduce any new problems with
this feature.


This might even be actively unsafe, as you're bypassing permissions
checks here. You never checked whether the file is readable. What if
it's write only? Same clients will do an ACCESS check before allowing
it, but a hostile actor might be able to exploit this.

Apparently the NFS server relies on the NFS client to do permission
check at time the file is opened. Once the permission check passes and
the OPEN is successful, then there is no permission check on READ/WRITE.

I wrote this pynfs test to verify:

def testReadOnWrOnlyFile(t, env):
    """Test read using open stateid with OPEN4_SHARE_ACCESS_WRITE
       on file with permission 0222

    FLAGS: writedelegations deleg
    CODE: DELEG28
    """

    # create a file with write-only mode (0222)
    sess = env.c1.new_client_session(b"%s_2" % env.testname(t))
    filename = env.testname(t)
    res = open_create_file(sess, filename, open_create=OPEN4_CREATE,
            attrs={FATTR4_MODE: 0o222}, access=OPEN4_SHARE_ACCESS_WRITE, want_deleg=False)
    check(res)

    # write file content
    fh = res.resarray[-1].object
    stateid = res.resarray[-2].stateid
    data = b"write test data"
    res = write_file(sess, fh, data, 0, stateid)
    check(res)

    # close the file
    res = close_file(sess, fh, stateid)
    check(res)

    # OPEN file with OPEN4_SHARE_ACCESS_WRITE
    access = OPEN4_SHARE_ACCESS_WRITE|OPEN4_SHARE_ACCESS_WANT_NO_DELEG
    res = open_file(sess, filename, access = access, want_deleg = True)
    check(res)

    # READ file using open stateid
    # Linux NFS server allows READ using open stateid from OPEN4_SHARE_ACCESS_WRITE.
    # However, the file permission mode 0222 then the READ should fail!
    stateid = res.resarray[-2].stateid
    res = sess.compound([op.putfh(fh), op.read(stateid, 0, 10)])
    check(res, NFS4ERR_ACCESS)
    res = close_file(sess, fh, stateid)
    check(res)

and the test failed with:
     "OP_READ should return NFS4ERR_ACCESS, instead got NFS4_OK"

Am i missing something?

I think you need to acquire a R/W open from the get-go instead when you
intend to grant a delegation, and just fall back to doing a O_WRONLY
open if that fails (and don't grant one).
