2013-09-03NFS: Ensure that rmdir() waits for sillyrenames to completeTrond Myklebust
If an NFS client does mkdir("dir"); fd = open("dir/file"); unlink("dir/file"); close(fd); rmdir("dir"); then the asynchronous nature of the sillyrename operation means that we can end up getting EBUSY for the rmdir() in the above test. Fix that by ensuring that we wait for any in-progress sillyrenames before sending the rmdir() to the server. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

2013-06-08NFS: Client implementation of Labeled-NFSDavid Quigley
This patch implements the client transport and handling support for labeled NFS. The patch adds two functions to encode and decode the security label recommended attribute which makes use of the LSM hooks added earlier. It also adds code to grab the label from the file attribute structures and encode the label to be sent back to the server. Acked-by: James Morris <james.l.morris@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Matthew N.

2012-10-01NFSv4: Add ACCESS operation to OPEN compoundWeston Andros Adamson
The OPEN operation has no way to differentiate an open for read and an open for execution - both look like read to the server. This allowed users to read files that didn't have READ access but did have EXEC access, which is obviously wrong. This patch adds an ACCESS call to the OPEN compound to handle the difference between OPENs for reading and execution. Since we're going through the trouble of calling ACCESS, we check all possible access bits and cache the results hopefully avoiding an ACCESS call in the future.

2012-09-28NFS: Fix fdatasync/fsync() when confronted with a server rebootTrond Myklebust
If the server reboots before it can commit the unstable writes to disk, then nfs_commit_release_pages() will detect this when it compares the verifier returned by COMMIT to the one returned by WRITE. When this happens, the client needs to resend those writes in order to guarantee that they make it to stable storage. This patch adds a signalling mechanism to notify fsync() that it needs to retry all writes before it can exit. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

2012-09-04NFS: Fix the initialisation of the readdir 'cookieverf' arrayTrond Myklebust
When the NFS_COOKIEVERF helper macro was converted into a static inline function in commit 99fadcd764 (nfs: convert NFS_*(inode) helpers to static inline), we broke the initialisation of the readdir cookies, since that depended on doing a memset with an argument of 'sizeof(NFS_COOKIEVERF(inode))' which therefore changed from sizeof(be32 cookieverf[2]) to sizeof(be32 *). At this point, NFS_COOKIEVERF seems to be more of an obfuscation than a helper, so the best thing would be to just get rid of it.

2012-05-01NFS: Adapt readdirplus to application usage patternsTrond Myklebust
While the use of READDIRPLUS is significantly more efficient than READDIR followed by many LOOKUP calls, it is still less efficient than just READDIR if the attributes are not required. This patch tracks when lookups are attempted on the directory, and uses that information to selectively disable READDIRPLUS on that directory. The first 'readdir' call is always served using READDIRPLUS. Subsequent calls only use READDIRPLUS if there was a successful lookup or revalidation on a child in the mean time. Credit for the original idea should go to Neil Brown. See: http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-nfs/msg19996.html However, the implementation in this patch differs from Neil's in that it focuses on tracking lookups rather than calls to stat().

2012-04-27NFS: create common nfs_pgio_header for both read and writeFred Isaman
In order to avoid duplicating all the data in nfs_read_data whenever we split it up into multiple RPC calls (either due to a short read result or due to rsize < PAGE_SIZE), we split out the bits that are the same per RPC call into a separate "header" structure. The goal this patch moves towards is to have a single header refcounted by several rpc_data structures. Thus, want to always refer from rpc_data to the header, and not the other way. This patch comes close to that ideal, but the directio code currently needs some special casing, isolated in the nfs_direct_[read_write]hdr_release() functions.

2011-11-04nfs: when attempting to open a directory, fall back on normal lookup (try #5)Jeff Layton
commit d953126 changed how nfs_atomic_lookup handles an -EISDIR return from an OPEN call. Prior to that patch, that caused the client to fall back to doing a normal lookup. When that patch went in, the code began returning that error to userspace. The d_revalidate codepath however never had the corresponding change, so it was still possible to end up with a NULL ctx->state pointer after that. That patch caused a regression. When we attempt to open a directory that does not have a cached dentry, that open now errors out with EISDIR. If you attempt the same open with a cached dentry, it will succeed. Fix this by reverting the change in nfs_atomic_lookup and allowing attempts to open directories to fall back to a normal lookup Also, add a NFSv4-specific f_ops->open routine that just returns -ENOTDIR. This should never be called if things are working properly, but if it ever is, then the dprintk may help in debugging. To facilitate this, a new file_operations field is also added to the nfs_rpc_ops struct.

2011-03-23NFSv4.1: add generic layer hooks for pnfs COMMITFred Isaman

It is up to the driver to have preallocated list headers for each destination it may need. pnfs_commit_list() is how the driver actually takes control, it is used instead of nfs_commit_list(). In order to pass information between the above functions, we create a union in nfs_page to hold a lseg (which is possible because the req is not on any list while in transition), and add some flags to indicate if we need to use the pnfs code.
