NFS: Use the same nfs_client_id4 for every server
Currently, when identifying itself to NFS servers, the Linux NFS
client uses a unique nfs_client_id4.id string for each server IP
address it talks with. For example, when client A talks to server X,
the client identifies itself using a string like "AX". The
requirements for these strings are specified in detail by RFC 3530
(and bis).
This form of client identification presents a problem for Transparent
State Migration. When client A's state on server X is migrated to
server Y, it continues to be associated with string "AX." But,
according to the rules of client string construction above, client
A will present string "AY" when communicating with server Y.
Server Y thus has no way to know that client A should be associated
with the state migrated from server X. "AX" is all but abandoned,
interfering with establishing fresh state for client A on server Y.
To support transparent state migration, then, NFSv4.0 clients must
instead use the same nfs_client_id4.id string to identify themselves
to every NFS server; something like "A".
Now a client identifies itself as "A" to server X. When a file
system on server X transitions to server Y, and client A identifies
itself as "A" to server Y, Y will know immediately that the state
associated with "A," whether it is native or migrated, is owned by
the client, and can merge both into a single lease.
As a pre-requisite to adding support for NFSv4 migration to the Linux
NFS client, this patch changes the way Linux identifies itself to NFS
servers via the SETCLIENTID (NFSv4 minor version 0) and EXCHANGE_ID
(NFSv4 minor version 1) operations.
In addition to removing the server's IP address from nfs_client_id4,
the Linux NFS client will also no longer use its own source IP address
as part of the nfs_client_id4 string. On multi-homed clients, the
value of this address depends on the address family and network
routing used to contact the server, thus it can be different for each
server.
