2013-08-07SUNRPC: If the rpcbind channel is disconnected, fail the call to unregisterTrond Myklebust
If rpcbind causes our connection to the AF_LOCAL socket to close after we've registered a service, then we want to be careful about reconnecting since the mount namespace may have changed. By simply refusing to reconnect the AF_LOCAL socket in the case of unregister, we avoid the need to somehow save the mount namespace. While this may lead to some services not unregistering properly, it should be safe.

2012-12-06SUNRPC: Don't allow low priority tasks to pre-empt higher priority onesTrond Myklebust
Currently, the priority queues attempt to be 'fair' to lower priority tasks by scheduling them after a certain number of higher priority tasks have run. The problem is that both the transport send queue and the NFSv4.1 session slot queue have strong ordering requirements. This patch therefore removes the fairness code in favour of strong ordering of task priorities. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

2012-01-31SUNRPC: make SUNPRC clients list per network namespace contextStanislav Kinsbursky
This patch moves static SUNRPC clients list and it's lock to sunrpc_net structure. Currently this list is used only for debug purposes. But later it will be used also for selecting clients by networks namespace on PipeFS mount/umount events. Per-network namespace lists will make this faster and simplier. Note: client list is taken from "init_net" network namespace context in rpc_show_tasks(). This will be changed some day later with making SUNRPC sysctl's per network namespace context.

2011-06-15NLM: Don't hang forever on NLM unlock requestsTrond Myklebust
If the NLM daemon is killed on the NFS server, we can currently end up hanging forever on an 'unlock' request, instead of aborting. Basically, if the rpcbind request fails, or the server keeps returning garbage, we really want to quit instead of retrying.

2011-04-24SUNRPC: Allow RPC calls to return ETIMEDOUT instead of EIOTrond Myklebust
On occasion, it is useful for the NFS layer to distinguish between soft timeouts and other EIO errors due to (say) encoding errors, or authentication errors. The following patch ensures that the default behaviour of the RPC layer remains to return EIO on soft timeouts (until we have audited all the callers).

2011-03-10SUNRPC: Close a race in __rpc_wait_for_completion_task()Trond Myklebust
Although they run as rpciod background tasks, under normal operation (i.e. no SIGKILL), functions like nfs_sillyrename(), nfs4_proc_unlck() and nfs4_do_close() want to be fully synchronous. This means that when we exit, we want all references to the rpc_task to be gone, and we want any dentry references etc. held by that task to be released. For this reason these functions call __rpc_wait_for_completion_task(), followed by rpc_put_task() in the expectation that the latter will be releasing the last reference to the rpc_task, and thus ensuring that the callback_ops->rpc_release() has been called synchronously. This patch fixes a race which exists due to the fact that rpciod calls rpc_complete_task() (in order to wake up the callers of __rpc_wait_for_completion_task()) and then subsequently calls rpc_put_task() without ensuring that these two steps are done atomically. In order to avoid adding new spin locks, the patch uses the existing waitqueue spin lock to order the rpc_task reference count releases between the waiting process and rpciod. The common case where nobody is waiting for completion is optimised for by checking if the RPC_TASK_ASYNC flag is cleared and/or if the rpc_task reference count is 1: in those cases we drop trying to grab the spin lock, and immediately free up the rpc_task. Those few processes that need to put the rpc_task from inside an asynchronous context and that do not care about ordering are given a new helper: rpc_put_task_async().

2010-05-14SUNRPC: Replace jiffies-based metrics with ktime-based metricsChuck Lever
Currently RPC performance metrics that tabulate elapsed time use jiffies time values. This is problematic on systems that use slow jiffies (for instance 100HZ systems built for paravirtualized environments). It is also a problem for computing precise latency statistics for advanced network transports, such as InfiniBand, that can have round-trip latencies significanly faster than a single clock tick. For the RPC client, adopt the high resolution time stamp mechanism already used by the network layer and blktrace: ktime. We use ktime format time stamps for all internal computations, and convert to milliseconds for presentation. As a result, we need only addition operations in the performance critical paths; multiply/divide is required only for presentation. We could report RTT metrics in microseconds. In fact the mountstats format is versioned to accomodate exactly this kind of interface improvement. For now, however, we'll stay with millisecond precision for presentation to maintain backwards compatibility with the handful of currently deployed user space tools. At a later point, we'll move to an API such as BDI_STATS where a finer timestamp precision can be reported.

2009-12-03SUNRPC: Allow RPCs to fail quickly if the server is unreachableChuck Lever
The kernel sometimes makes RPC calls to services that aren't running. Because the kernel's RPC client always assumes the hard retry semantic when reconnecting a connection-oriented RPC transport, the underlying reconnect logic takes a long while to time out, even though the remote may have responded immediately with ECONNREFUSED. In certain cases, like upcalls to our local rpcbind daemon, or for NFS mount requests, we'd like the kernel to fail immediately if the remote service isn't reachable. This allows another transport to be tried immediately, or the pending request can be abandoned quickly. Introduce a per-request flag which controls how call_transmit_status() behaves when request transmission fails because the server cannot be reached. We don't want soft connection semantics to apply to other errors. The default case of the switch statement in call_transmit_status() no longer falls through; the fall through code is copied to the default case, and a "break;" is added. The transport's connection re-establishment timeout is also ignored for such requests. We want the request to fail immediately, so the reconnect delay is skipped. Additionally, we don't want a connect failure here to further increase the reconnect timeout value, since this request will not be retried.

2009-06-17nfs41: Add backchannel processing support to RPC state machineRicardo Labiaga
Adds rpc_run_bc_task() which is called by the NFS callback service to process backchannel requests. It performs similar work to rpc_run_task() though "schedules" the backchannel task to be executed starting at the call_trasmit state in the RPC state machine. It also introduces some miscellaneous updates to the argument validation, call_transmit, and transport cleanup functions to take into account that there are now forechannel and backchannel tasks. Backchannel requests do not carry an RPC message structure, since the payload has already been XDR encoded using the existing NFSv4 callback mechanism. Introduce a new transmit state for the client to reply on to backchannel requests. This new state simply reserves the transport and issues the reply. In case of a connection related error, disconnects the transport and drops the reply. It requires the forechannel to re-establish the connection and the server to retransmit the request, as stated in NFSv4.1 section 2.9.2 "Client and Server Transport Behavior". Note: There is no need to loop attempting to reserve the transport. If EAGAIN is returned by xprt_prepare_transmit(), return with tk_status == 0, setting tk_action to call_bc_transmit. rpc_execute() will invoke it again after the task is taken off the sleep queue.

2008-02-25SUNRPC: Run rpc timeout functions as callbacks instead of in softirqsTrond Myklebust
An audit of the current RPC timeout functions shows that they don't really ever need to run in the softirq context. As long as the softirq is able to signal that the wakeup is due to a timeout (which it can do by setting task->tk_status to -ETIMEDOUT) then the callback functions can just run as standard task->tk_callback functions (in the rpciod/process context). The only possible border-line case would be xprt_timer() for the case of UDP, when the callback is used to reduce the size of the transport congestion window. In testing, however, the effect of moving that update to a callback would appear to be minor. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
