2008-04-08NFS: initialize flags field in nfs_open_contextJeff Layton
The nfs_open_context struct had a "flags" field added recently, but the allocator isn't initializing it. It also looks like the allocator isn't initializing the mode or list either, but they seem to be overwritten by the caller, so that's less of an issue.

2008-03-14SUNRPC: Add a helper rpcauth_lookup_generic_cred()Trond Myklebust
The NFSv4 protocol allows clients to negotiate security protocols on the fly in the case where an administrator on the server changes the export settings and/or in the case where we may have a filesystem migration event. Instead of having the NFS client code cache credentials that are tied to a particular AUTH method it is therefore preferable to have a generic credential that can be converted into whatever AUTH is in use by the RPC client when the read/write/sillyrename/... is put on the wire. We do this by means of the new "generic" credential, which basically just caches the minimal information that is needed to look up an RPCSEC_GSS, AUTH_SYS, or AUTH_NULL credential.

2008-03-07NFS: Fix the fsid revalidation in nfs_update_inode()Trond Myklebust
When we detect that we've crossed a mountpoint on the remote server, we must take care not to use that inode to revalidate the fsid on our current superblock. To do so, we label the inode as a remote mountpoint, and check for that in nfs_update_inode(). Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2008-02-25NFS: Add an nfsiod workqueueTrond Myklebust
NFS post-rpciod cleanups often involve tasks that cannot be safely performed within the rpciod context (due to deadlock concerns). We therefore add a dedicated NFS workqueue that can perform tasks like cleaning up state after an interrupted NFSv4 open() call, or calling put_nfs_open_context() after an asynchronous read or write call.

2008-02-25NFS: Fix a deadlock with lazy umountTrond Myklebust
We can't allow rpc callback functions like task->tk_ops->rpc_call_prepare() and task->tk_ops->rpc_call_done() to call mntput() in any way, since that will cause a deadlock when the call to rpc_shutdown_client() attempts to wait on 'task' to complete. We can avoid the above deadlock by moving calls to mntput to task->tk_ops->rpc_release() callback, since at that time the task will be marked as completed, and so rpc_shutdown_client won't attempt to wait on it.

2008-01-30NFS: Prevent nfs_getattr() hang during heavy write workloadsChuck Lever
POSIX requires that ctime and mtime, as reported by the stat(2) call, reflect the activity of the most recent write(2). To that end, nfs_getattr() flushes pending dirty writes to a file before doing a GETATTR to allow the NFS server to set the file's size, ctime, and mtime properly. However, nfs_getattr() can be starved when a constant stream of application writes to a file prevents nfs_wb_nocommit() from completing. This usually results in hangs of programs doing a stat against an NFS file that is being written. "ls -l" is a common victim of this behavior. To prevent starvation, hold the file's i_mutex in nfs_getattr() to freeze applications writes temporarily so the client can more quickly obtain clean values for a file's size, mtime, and ctime.

2008-01-30NFS: Ensure nfs_wcc_update_inode always converts file size to loff_tChuck Lever
The nfs_wcc_update_inode() function omits logic to convert the type of the NFS on-the-wire value of a file's size (__u64) to the type of file size value stored in struct inode (loff_t, which is signed). Everywhere else in the NFS client I checked already correctly converts the file size type. This effects only very large files.

2007-10-19NFS: Fix a race in sillyrenameTrond Myklebust
lookup() and sillyrename() can race one another because the sillyrename() completion cannot take the parent directory's inode->i_mutex since the latter may be held by whoever is calling dput(). We therefore have little option but to add extra locking to ensure that nfs_lookup() and nfs_atomic_open() do not race with the sillyrename completion. If somebody has looked up the sillyrenamed file in the meantime, we just transfer the sillydelete information to the new dentry.

For one thing, the test NFS_ATTRTIMEO() == 0 makes no sense: we're testing whether or not the cache timeout length is zero, which is totally unrelated to the issue of whether or not we trust the file staleness. Secondly, we do not want to retry the GETATTR once a file has been declared stale by the server: we rather want to discard that inode as soon as possible, since there are broken servers still in use out there that reuse filehandles on new files.

2007-10-09Re: [NFS] [PATCH] Attribute timeout handling and wrapping u32 jiffiesFabio Olive Leite
I would like to discuss the idea that the current checks for attribute timeout using time_after are inadequate for 32bit architectures, since time_after works correctly only when the two timestamps being compared are within 2^31 jiffies of each other. The signed overflow caused by comparing values more than 2^31 jiffies apart will flip the result, causing incorrect assumptions of validity. 2^31 jiffies is a fairly large period of time (~25 days) when compared to the lifetime of most kernel data structures, but for long lived NFS mounts that can sit idle for months (think that for some reason autofs cannot be used), it is easy to compare inode attribute timestamps with very disparate or even bogus values (as in when jiffies have wrapped many times, where the comparison doesn't even make sense). Currently the code tests for attribute timeout by simply adding the desired amount of jiffies to the stored timestamp and comparing that with the current timestamp of obtained attribute data with time_after. This is incorrect, as it returns true for the desired timeout period and another full 2^31 range of jiffies. In testing with artificial jumps (several small jumps, not one big crank) of the jiffies I was able to reproduce a problem found in a server with very long lived NFS mounts, where attributes would not be refreshed even after touching files and directories in the server: Initial uptime: 03:42:01 up 6 min, 0 users, load average: 0.01, 0.12, 0.07 NFS volume is mounted and time is advanced: 03:38:09 up 25 days, 2 min, 0 users, load average: 1.22, 1.05, 1.08 # ls -l /local/A/foo/bar /nfs/A/foo/bar -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Dec 17 03:38 /local/A/foo/bar -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Nov 22 00:36 /nfs/A/foo/bar # touch /local/A/foo/bar # ls -l /local/A/foo/bar /nfs/A/foo/bar -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Dec 17 03:47 /local/A/foo/bar -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Nov 22 00:36 /nfs/A/foo/bar We can see the local mtime is updated, but the NFS mount still shows the old value.

2007-10-0964 bit ino support for NFS clientPeter Staubach
Hi. Attached is a patch to modify the NFS client code to support 64 bit ino's, as appropriate for the system and the NFS protocol version. The code basically just expand the NFS interfaces for routines which handle ino's from using ino_t to u64 and then uses the fileid in the nfs_inode instead of i_ino in the inode. The code paths that were updated are in the getattr method and the readdir methods. This should be no real change on 64 bit platforms. Since the ino_t is an unsigned long, it would already be 64 bits wide. Thanx... ps Signed-off-by: Peter Staubach <staubach@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
