nfs/nfsd/sunrpc: enforce transport requirements for NFSv4

jtlayton · J. Bruce Fields · commit 5283b03ee5cd · 2017-02-24T17:03:34.000-05:00
NFSv4 requires a transport "that is specified to avoid network
congestion" (RFC 7530, section 3.1, paragraph 2).  In practical terms,
that means that you should not run NFSv4 over UDP. The server has never
enforced that requirement, however.

This patchset fixes this by adding a new flag to the svc_version that
states that it has these transport requirements. With that, we can check
that the transport has XPT_CONG_CTRL set before processing an RPC. If it
doesn't we reject it with RPC_PROG_MISMATCH.
