ID Mapper | ||
========= | ||
Id mapper is used by NFS to translate user and group ids into names, and to | ||
translate user and group names into ids. Part of this translation involves | ||
performing an upcall to userspace to request the information. Id mapper will | ||
user request-key to perform this upcall and cache the result. The program | ||
/usr/sbin/nfs.upcall should be called by request-key, and will perform the | ||
translation and initialize a key with the resulting information. | ||
|
||
NFS_USE_NEW_IDMAPPER must be selected when configuring the kernel to use this | ||
feature. | ||
|
||
=========== | ||
Configuring | ||
=========== | ||
The file /etc/request-key.conf will need to be modified so /sbin/request-key can | ||
direct the upcall. The following line should be added: | ||
|
||
#OP TYPE DESCRIPTION CALLOUT INFO PROGRAM ARG1 ARG2 ARG3 ... | ||
#====== ======= =============== =============== =============================== | ||
create id_resolver * * /usr/sbin/nfs.upcall %k %d 600 | ||
|
||
This will direct all id_resolver requests to the program /usr/sbin/nfs.upcall. | ||
The last parameter, 600, defines how many seconds into the future the key will | ||
expire. This parameter is optional for /usr/sbin/nfs.upcall. When the timeout | ||
is not specified, nfs.upcall will default to 600 seconds. | ||
|
||
id mapper uses for key descriptions: | ||
uid: Find the UID for the given user | ||
gid: Find the GID for the given group | ||
user: Find the user name for the given UID | ||
group: Find the group name for the given GID | ||
|
||
You can handle any of these individually, rather than using the generic upcall | ||
program. If you would like to use your own program for a uid lookup then you | ||
would edit your request-key.conf so it look similar to this: | ||
|
||
#OP TYPE DESCRIPTION CALLOUT INFO PROGRAM ARG1 ARG2 ARG3 ... | ||
#====== ======= =============== =============== =============================== | ||
create id_resolver uid:* * /some/other/program %k %d 600 | ||
create id_resolver * * /usr/sbin/nfs.upcall %k %d 600 | ||
|
||
Notice that the new line was added above the line for the generic program. | ||
request-key will find the first matching line and corresponding program. In | ||
this case, /some/other/program will handle all uid lookups and | ||
/usr/sbin/nfs.upcall will handle gid, user, and group lookups. | ||
|
||
See <file:Documentation/keys-request-keys.txt> for more information about the | ||
request-key function. | ||
|
||
|
||
========== | ||
nfs.upcall | ||
========== | ||
nfs.upcall is designed to be called by request-key, and should not be run "by | ||
hand". This program takes two arguments, a serialized key and a key | ||
description. The serialized key is first converted into a key_serial_t, and | ||
then passed as an argument to keyctl_instantiate (both are part of keyutils.h). | ||
|
||
The actual lookups are performed by functions found in nfsidmap.h. nfs.upcall | ||
determines the correct function to call by looking at the first part of the | ||
description string. For example, a uid lookup description will appear as | ||
"uid:user@domain". | ||
|
||
nfs.upcall will return 0 if the key was instantiated, and non-zero otherwise. |
