v3:
* Rebase to v5.8-rc2
v2:
* Move nfs4 specific definitions to nfs_fs4.h
* Squash some patches together to avoid unused function warnings
when bisecting.
* Made determining server support a two-step process. First,
the extended attribute FATTR is verified to be supported, then
the value of the attributed is queried in fsinfo to determine
support.
* Fixed up Makefile to remove an unneeded extra line.
v1:
* Client side caching is now included in this patch set.
* As per the discussion, user extended attributes are enabled if
the client and server support them (e.g. they support 4.2 and
advertise the user extended attribute FATTR). There are no longer
options to switch them off on either the client or the server.
* The code is no longer conditioned on a config option.
* The number of patches has been reduced somewhat by merging
smaller, related ones.
Original combined client/server RFC:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/cover/11143565/
In general, these patches were, both server and client, tested as
follows:
* stress-ng-xattr with 1000 workers
* Test all corner cases (XATTR_SIZE_*)
* Test all failure cases (no xattr, setxattr with different or
invalid flags, etc).
* Verify the content of xattrs across several operations.
* Use KASAN and KMEMLEAK for a longer mix of testruns to verify
that there were no leaks (after unmounting the filesystem).
* Interop run against FreeBSD server/client implementation.
* Ran xfstests-dev, with no unexpected/new failures as compared
to an unpatched kernel. To fully use xfstests-dev, it needed
some modifications, as it expects to either use all xattr
namespaces, or none. Whereas NFS only suppors the "user."
namespace (+ optional ACLs). I will send the changes in
seperately.
* Test the memory shrinker for the client side cache by running
the client inside a 1G KVM VM, filling up the cache by running
an agressive multi-threaded xattr workload, and tracing the
shrinker when it kicked in. No memory allocation problems were
seen.
