2006-10-01[PATCH] Vectorize aio_read/aio_write fileop methodsBadari Pulavarty
This patch vectorizes aio_read() and aio_write() methods to prepare for collapsing all aio & vectored operations into one interface - which is aio_read()/aio_write().

2006-09-22NFS: Generalise the nfs_client structureDavid Howells
Generalise the nfs_client structure by: (1) Moving nfs_client to a more general place (nfs_fs_sb.h). (2) Renaming its maintenance routines to be non-NFS4 specific. (3) Move those maintenance routines to a new non-NFS4 specific file (client.c) and move the declarations to internal.h. (4) Make nfs_find/get_client() take a full sockaddr_in to include the port number (will be required for NFS2/3). (5) Make nfs_find/get_client() take the NFS protocol version (again will be required to differentiate NFS2, 3 & 4 client records). Also: (6) Make nfs_client construction proceed akin to inodes, marking them as under construction and providing a function to indicate completion. (7) Make nfs_get_client() wait interruptibly if it finds a client that it can share, but that client is currently being constructed. (8) Make nfs4_create_client() use (6) and (7) instead of locking cl_sem. Signed-Off-By: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

2006-09-13[PATCH] headers_check: reduce user-visible noise in <linux/nfs_fs.h>David Woodhouse
We don't need any of this crap included from the user-visible part of nfs_fs.h -- remove it all. In fact, we probably don't need anything but NFS_SUPER_MAGIC to be defined; is there any need for anything else? And magic numbers should probably move to <linux/magic.h> rather than being strewn across various fs-specific include files which exist in userspace for solely that purpose. With this patch, 'make header_check' works again at least on PowerPC.

2006-09-08[PATCH] NFS: large non-page-aligned direct I/O clobbers memoryTrond Myklebust
The logic in nfs_direct_read_schedule and nfs_direct_write_schedule can allow data->npages to be one larger than rpages. This causes a page pointer to be written beyond the end of the pagevec in nfs_read_data (or nfs_write_data). Fix this by making nfs_(read|write)_alloc() calculate the size of the pagevec array, and initialise data->npages. Also get rid of the redundant argument to nfs_commit_alloc().

2006-03-20NFS: Fix a race in nfs_sync_inode()Trond Myklebust
Kudos to Neil Brown for spotting the problem: "in nfs_sync_inode, there is effectively the sequence: nfs_wait_on_requests nfs_flush_inode nfs_commit_inode This seems a bit racy to me as if the only requests are on the ->commit list, and nfs_commit_inode is called separately after nfs_wait_on_requests completes, and before nfs_commit_inode start (say: by nfs_write_inode) then none of these function will return >0, yet there will be some pending request that aren't waited for." The solution is to search for requests to wait upon, search for dirty requests, and search for uncommitted requests while holding the nfsi->req_lock The patch also cleans up nfs_sync_inode(), getting rid of the redundant FLUSH_WAIT flag. It turns out that we were always setting it. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

2006-03-20nfs: Use UNSTABLE + COMMIT for NFS O_DIRECT writesTrond Myklebust
Currently NFS O_DIRECT writes use FILE_SYNC so that a COMMIT is not necessary. This simplifies the internal logic, but this could be a difficult workload for some servers. Instead, let's send UNSTABLE writes, and after they all complete, send a COMMIT for the dirty range. After the COMMIT returns successfully, then do the wake_up or fire off aio_complete(). Test plan: Async direct I/O tests against Solaris (or any server that requires committed unstable writes). Reboot server during test.

Duplicate infrastructure from direct read path that will allow write path to generate multiple write requests concurrently. This will enable us to add support for aio in this path.

2006-03-20NFS: Cleanup of NFS write code in preparation for asynchronous o_directTrond Myklebust
This patch inverts the callback hierarchy for NFS write calls. Instead of having the NFSv2/v3/v4-specific code set up the RPC callback ops, we allow the original caller to do so. This allows for more flexibility w.r.t. how to set up and tear down the nfs_write_data structure while still allowing the NFSv3/v4 code to perform error handling. The greater flexibility is needed by the asynchronous O_DIRECT code, which wants to be able to hold on to the original nfs_write_data structures after the WRITE RPC call has completed in order to be able to replay them if the COMMIT call determines that the server has rebooted.

2006-01-06NFS: support large reads and writes on the wireChuck Lever
Most NFS server implementations allow up to 64KB reads and writes on the wire. The Solaris NFS server allows up to a megabyte, for instance.

This will help reduce protocol and context switch overhead on read/write intensive NFS workloads, and support larger atomic read and write operations on servers that support them.

Setattr is currently violating the NFSv4 rules for OPEN_DOWNGRADE in that it may cause a downgrade from OPEN4_SHARE_ACCESS_BOTH to OPEN4_SHARE_ACCESS_WRITE despite the fact that there exists no open file with O_WRONLY access mode.

2005-08-18[PATCH] NFS: Introduce the use of inode->i_lock to protect fields in nfsiChuck Lever
Down the road we want to eliminate the use of the global kernel lock entirely from the NFS client. To do this, we need to protect the fields in the nfs_inode structure adequately. Start by serializing updates to the "cache_validity" field. Note this change addresses an SMP hang found by njw@osdl.org, where processes deadlock because nfs_end_data_update and nfs_revalidate_mapping update the "cache_validity" field without proper serialization.

2005-08-18[PATCH] NFS: use atomic bitops to manipulate flags in nfsi->flagsChuck Lever
Introduce atomic bitops to manipulate the bits in the nfs_inode structure's "flags" field. Using bitops means we can use a generic wait_on_bit call instead of an ad hoc locking scheme in fs/nfs/inode.c, so we can remove the "nfs_i_wait" field from nfs_inode at the same time. The other new flags field will continue to use bitmask and logic AND and OR. This permits several flags to be set at the same time efficiently. The following patch adds a spin lock to protect these flags, and this spin lock will later cover other fields in the nfs_inode structure, amortizing the cost of using this type of serialization.

2005-08-16[PATCH] NFS: Ensure we always update inode->i_mode when doing O_EXCL createsTrond Myklebust
When the client performs an exclusive create and opens the file for writing, a Netapp filer will first create the file using the mode 01777. It does this since an NFSv3/v4 exclusive create cannot immediately set the mode bits. The 01777 mode then gets put into the inode->i_mode. After the file creation is successful, we then do a setattr to change the mode to the correct value (as per the NFS spec). The problem is that nfs_refresh_inode() no longer updates inode->i_mode, so the latter retains the 01777 mode. A bit later, the VFS notices this, and calls remove_suid(). This of course now resets the file mode to inode->i_mode & 0777. Hey presto, the file mode on the server is now magically changed to 0777. Duh...
