When an XDR counted array has a maximum element count, xdrgen adds
a bounds check to the encoder or decoder for that type. But in cases
where the .x provides no maximum element count, such as
struct notify4 {
/* composed from notify_type4 or notify_deviceid_type4 */
bitmap4 notify_mask;
notifylist4 notify_vals;
};
struct CB_NOTIFY4args {
stateid4 cna_stateid;
nfs_fh4 cna_fh;
notify4 cna_changes<>;
};
xdrgen is supposed to omit that bounds check. Some of the Jinja2
templates handle that correctly, but a few are incorrect and leave
the bounds check in place with a maximum of zero, which causes
encoding/decoding of that type to fail unconditionally.

Refactor: Translating an on-the-wire value to a local host errno is
architecturally a job for the proc function, not the XDR decoder.

In particular, client-side source code needs the definition of
"struct rpc_procinfo" and does not want header files that pull
in "struct svc_rqst". Otherwise, the source does not compile.

Obviously, "nfs_ok" is defined only for NFS protocols. Other XDR
protocols won't know "nfs_ok" from Adam.

This tracepoint was a "note to self" and is not operational. It is
added only to client-side code, which so far we haven't needed. It
will cause immediate breakage once we start generating client code,
though, so remove it now.

Introduce logic in the code generators to emit maxsize (XDR
width) definitions. In C, these are pre-processor macros.

This simplifies the generated C code and makes way for supporting
big-endian XDR enums.

"close.j2" is a confusing name.

I misread RFC 4506. The built-in data type is called simply
"string", as there is no fixed-length variety.

'typedef opaque yada<XYZ>' should use xdrgen's built-in opaque
encoder and decoder, to enable better compiler optimization.

xdr_stream_encode_u32() returns XDR_UNIT on success.
xdr_stream_decode_u32() returns zero or -EMSGSIZE, but never
XDR_UNIT.

Add a Python-based tool for translating XDR specifications into XDR
encoder and decoder functions written in the Linux kernel's C coding
style. The generator attempts to match the usual C coding style of
the Linux kernel's SunRPC consumers.
This approach is similar to the netlink code generator in
tools/net/ynl .
The maintainability benefits of machine-generated XDR code include:
- Stronger type checking
- Reduces the number of bugs introduced by human error
- Makes the XDR code easier to audit and analyze
- Enables rapid prototyping of new RPC-based protocols
- Hardens the layering between protocol logic and marshaling
- Makes it easier to add observability on demand
- Unit tests might be built for both the tool and (automatically)
for the generated code
In addition, converting the XDR layer to use memory-safe languages
such as Rust will be easier if much of the code can be converted
automatically.
