Subject: [PATCH] nfs/keys/idmap: intermittent erroneous uid/gid bug

Hi,

I am investigating this bug:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nfs-utils/+bug/1124250
which is also:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=876705
and:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=758870

After the keys which map NFS uid/gid to names expire there is sometimes a 
delay in them being recreated.  I believe this is because 
nfs_idmap_request_key calls request_key_with_auxdata which returns expired 
keys if they exist.  If this happens there is no-one to re-create the key.

I think, instead, nfs_idmap_request_key should request a new key with a 
userspace upcall if its key for a particular name has expired.

I have made the attached patch which fixes the problem in my tests.  It 
adds request_valid_key_with_auxdata() which does the same as 
request_key_with_auxdata() except that it ignores expired, revoked and 
invalidated keys.  It does this by passing KEYRING_SEARCH_DO_STATE_CHECK 
into the context for search_process_keyrings inside request_key_and_link. 
If all keys are expired, this function then asks userspace for an updated 
key.

I have no previous experience in the kernel, so please be gentle :)  I am 
happy to change and re-test the patch to anyone's whim.

Thanks & best regards,
Carl
