2007-10-09SUNRPC: rename the rpc_xprtsock_create structure\"Talpey, Thomas\
To prepare for including non-sockets-based RPC transports, change the overly suggestive name of the transport creation arguments struct. Signed-off-by: Tom Talpey <tmt@netapp.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2007-10-09SUNRPC: Provide a new API for registering transport implementations\"Talpey, Thomas\
To allow transport capabilities to be loaded dynamically, provide an API for registering and unregistering the transports with the RPC client. Eventually xprt_create_transport() will be changed to search the list of registered transports when initializing a fresh transport.

2007-10-09SUNRPC: export per-transport rpcbind netid's\"Talpey, Thomas\
The rpcbind (v3+) netid is provided by each RPC client transport. This fixes an omission in IPv6 rpcbind client support, and enables future extension. Signed-off-by: Tom Talpey <tmt@netapp.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2007-10-09SUNRPC: Add support for formatted universal addressesChuck Lever
"Universal addresses" are a string representation of an IP address and port. They are described fully in RFC 3530, section 2.2. Add support for generating them in the RPC client's socket transport module. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com>
2007-10-09SUNRPC: Add hex-formatted address support to rpc_peeraddr2str()Chuck Lever
Add support for the NFS client's need to export volume information with IP addresses formatted in hex instead of decimal. This isn't used yet, but subsequent patches (not in this series) will change the NFS client to use this functionality.

2007-07-10SUNRPC client: add interface for binding to a local addressFrank van Maarseveen
In addition to binding to a local privileged port the NFS client should allow binding to a specific local address. This is used by the server for callbacks. The patch adds the necessary interface.

2007-04-30SUNRPC: introduce rpcbind: replacement for in-kernel portmapperChuck Lever
Introduce a replacement for the in-kernel portmapper client that supports all 3 versions of the rpcbind protocol. This code is not used yet. Original code by Groupe Bull updated for the latest kernel, with multiple bug fixes. Note that rpcb_clnt.c does not yet support registering via versions 3 and 4 of the rpcbind protocol. That is planned for a later patch. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2007-04-30SUNRPC: Eliminate side effects from rpc_mallocChuck Lever
Currently rpc_malloc sets req->rq_buffer internally. Make this a more generic interface: return a pointer to the new buffer (or NULL) and make the caller set req->rq_buffer and req->rq_bufsize. This looks much more like kmalloc and eliminates the side effects. To fix a potential deadlock, this patch also replaces GFP_NOFS with GFP_NOWAIT in rpc_malloc. This prevents async RPCs from sleeping outside the RPC's task scheduler while allocating their buffer. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2007-04-30SUNRPC: RPC buffer size estimates are too largeChuck Lever
The RPC buffer size estimation logic in net/sunrpc/clnt.c always significantly overestimates the requirements for the buffer size. A little instrumentation demonstrated that in fact rpc_malloc was never allocating the buffer from the mempool, but almost always called kmalloc. To compute the size of the RPC buffer more precisely, split p_bufsiz into two fields; one for the argument size, and one for the result size. Then, compute the sum of the exact call and reply header sizes, and split the RPC buffer precisely between the two. That should keep almost all RPC buffers within the 2KiB buffer mempool limit. And, we can finally be rid of RPC_SLACK_SPACE! Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2006-12-06SUNRPC: Make address format buffers more genericChuck Lever
For now we will assume that all transports will use the address format buffers in the rpc_xprt struct to store their addresses. Change rpc_peer2str() to be a generic routine to handle this, and get rid of the print_address() op in the rpc_xprt_ops vector.

2006-12-06SUNRPC: move saved socket callback functions to a private data structureChuck Lever

2006-12-06SUNRPC: Move TCP state flags into xprtsock.cChuck Lever
Move "XPRT_LAST_FRAG" and friends from xprt.h into xprtsock.c, and rename them to use the naming scheme in use in xprtsock.c. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2006-12-06SUNRPC: Move TCP receive state variables into private data structureChuck Lever
Move the TCP receive state variables from the generic rpc_xprt structure to a private structure maintained inside net/sunrpc/xprtsock.c. Also rename a function/variable pair to refer to RPC fragment headers instead of record markers, to be consistent with types defined in sunrpc/*.h.

2006-12-06SUNRPC: Remove sock and inet fields from rpc_xprtChuck Lever

2006-12-06SUNRPC: Make the transport-specific setup routine allocate rpc_xprtChuck Lever
Change the location where the rpc_xprt structure is allocated so each transport implementation can allocate a private area from the same chunk of memory. Note also that xprt->ops->destroy, rather than xprt_destroy, is now responsible for freeing rpc_xprt when the transport is destroyed. Test plan: Connectathon.

2006-12-06SUNRPC: minor optimization of "xid" field in rpc_xprtChuck Lever
Move the xid field in the rpc_xprt structure to be in the same cache line as the reserve_lock, since these are used at the same time. Test plan: None. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2006-10-04[PATCH] knfsd: Prepare knfsd for support of rsize/wsize of up to 1MB, over TCPGreg Banks
The limit over UDP remains at 32K. Also, make some of the apparently arbitrary sizing constants clearer. The biggest change here involves replacing NFSSVC_MAXBLKSIZE by a function of the rqstp. This allows it to be different for different protocols (udp/tcp) and also allows it to depend on the servers declared sv_bufsiz. Note that we don't actually increase sv_bufsz for nfs yet.

2006-09-22SUNRPC: Add refcounting to the struct rpc_xprtTrond Myklebust
In a subsequent patch, this will allow the portmapper to take a reference to the rpc_xprt for which it is updating the port number, fixing an Oops. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2006-09-22SUNRPC: Eliminate xprt_create_proto and rpc_create_clientChuck Lever
The two function call API for creating a new RPC client is now obsolete. Remove it. Also, remove an unnecessary check to see whether the caller is capable of using privileged network services. The kernel RPC client always uses a privileged ephemeral port by default; callers are responsible for checking the authority of users to make use of any RPC service, or for specifying that a nonprivileged port is acceptable. Test plan: Repeated runs of Connectathon locking suite. Check network trace to ensure correctness of NLM requests and replies.

2006-09-22SUNRPC: use sockaddr + size when creating remote transport endpointsChuck Lever
Prepare for more generic transport endpoint handling needed by transports that might use different forms of addressing, such as IPv6. Introduce a single function call to replace the two-call xprt_create_proto/rpc_create_client API. Define a new rpc_create_args structure that allows callers to pass in remote endpoint addresses of varying length. Test-plan: Compile kernel with CONFIG_NFS enabled.

2006-09-22SUNRPC: Use "sockaddr_storage" for storing RPC client's remote peer addressChuck Lever
IPv6 addresses are big (128 bytes). Now that no RPC client consumers treat the addr field in rpc_xprt structs as an opaque, and access it only via the API calls, we can safely widen the field in the rpc_xprt struct to accomodate larger addresses. Test plan: Compile kernel with CONFIG_NFS enabled. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2006-09-22SUNRPC: add xprt switch API for printing formatted remote peer addressesChuck Lever

2006-09-22SUNRPC: Introduce transport switch callout for pluggable rpcbindChuck Lever
Introduce a clean transport switch API for plugging in different types of rpcbind mechanisms. For instance, rpcbind can cleanly replace the existing portmapper client, or a transport can choose to implement RPC binding any way it likes. Test plan: Destructive testing (unplugging the network temporarily). Connectathon with UDP and TCP. NFSv2/3 and NFSv4 mounting should be carefully checked. Probably need to rig a server where certain services aren't running, or that returns an error for some typical operation.

2006-09-22SUNRPC: Make RPC portmapper use per-transport storageChuck Lever
Move connection and bind state that was maintained in the rpc_clnt structure to the rpc_xprt structure. This will allow the creation of a clean API for plugging in different types of bind mechanisms. This brings improvements such as the elimination of a single spin lock to control serialization for all in-kernel RPC binding. A set of per-xprt bitops is used to serialize tasks during RPC binding, just like it now works for making RPC transport connections. Test-plan: Destructive testing (unplugging the network temporarily). Connectathon with UDP and TCP. NFSv2/3 and NFSv4 mounting should be carefully checked. Probably need to rig a server where certain services aren't running, or that returns an error for some typical operation.

2006-09-22SUNRPC: Create a helper to tell whether a transport is boundChuck Lever
Hide the contents and format of xprt->addr by eliminating direct uses of the xprt->addr.sin_port field. This change is required to support alternate RPC host address formats (eg IPv6).

2006-08-24SUNRPC: avoid choosing an IPMI port for RPC trafficChuck Lever
Some hardware uses port 664 for its hardware-based IPMI listener. Teach the RPC client to avoid using that port by raising the default minimum port number to 665. Test plan: Find a mainboard known to use port 664 for IPMI; enable IPMI; mount NFS servers in a tight loop.

2006-08-03RPC: Ensure that we disconnect TCP socket when client requests error outTrond Myklebust
If we're part way through transmitting a TCP request, and the client errors, then we need to disconnect and reconnect the TCP socket in order to avoid confusing the server.

2006-01-06SUNRPC: Ensure client closes the socket when server initiates a closeTrond Myklebust
If the server decides to close the RPC socket, we currently don't actually respond until either another RPC call is scheduled, or until xprt_autoclose() gets called by the socket expiry timer (which may be up to 5 minutes later). This patch ensures that xprt_autoclose() is called much sooner if the server closes the socket. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2006-01-06SUNRPC: transport switch API for setting port numberChuck Lever
At some point, transport endpoint addresses will no longer be IPv4. To hide the structure of the rpc_xprt's address field from ULPs and port mappers, add an API for setting the port number during an RPC bind operation. Test-plan: Destructive testing (unplugging the network temporarily). Connectathon with UDP and TCP. NFSv2/3 and NFSv4 mounting should be carefully checked. Probably need to rig a server where certain services aren't running, or that returns an error for some typical operation.

2006-01-06SUNRPC: switchable buffer allocationChuck Lever
Add RPC client transport switch support for replacing buffer management on a per-transport basis. In the current IPv4 socket transport implementation, RPC buffers are allocated as needed for each RPC message that is sent. Some transport implementations may choose to use pre-allocated buffers for encoding, sending, receiving, and unmarshalling RPC messages, however. For transports capable of direct data placement, the buffers can be carved out of a pre-registered area of memory rather than from a slab cache. Test-plan: Millions of fsx operations. Performance characterization with "sio" and "iozone". Use oprofile and other tools to look for significant regression in CPU utilization.

2005-10-18SUNRPC: Provide a callback to allow free pages allocated during xdr encodingJ. Bruce Fields
For privacy, we need to allocate pages to store the encrypted data (passed in pages can't be used without the risk of corrupting data in the page cache). So we need a way to free that memory after the request has been transmitted. Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@citi.umich.edu> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2005-10-18RPC: allow call_encode() to delay transmission of an RPC call.Trond Myklebust
Currently, call_encode will cause the entire RPC call to abort if it returns an error. This is unnecessarily rigid, and gets in the way of attempts to allow the NFSv4 layer to order RPC calls that carry sequence ids. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2005-09-23[PATCH] RPC: rationalize set_buffer_sizeChuck Lever

2005-09-23[PATCH] RPC: parametrize various transport connect timeoutsChuck Lever
Each transport implementation can now set unique bind, connect, reestablishment, and idle timeout values. These are variables, allowing the values to be modified dynamically. This permits exponential backoff of any of these values, for instance. As an example, we implement exponential backoff for the connection reestablishment timeout.

2005-09-23[PATCH] RPC: allow RPC client's port range to be adjustableChuck Lever
Select an RPC client source port between 650 and 1023 instead of between 1 and 800. The old range conflicts with a number of network services. Provide sysctls to allow admins to select a different port range. Note that this doesn't affect user-level RPC library behavior, which still uses 1 to 800. Based on a suggestion by Olaf Kirch <okir@suse.de>. Test-plan: Repeated mount and unmount. Destructive testing. Idle timeouts.

2005-09-23[PATCH] RPC: add a release_rqst callout to the RPC transport switchChuck Lever
The final place where congestion control state is adjusted is in xprt_release, where each request is finally released.

2005-09-23[PATCH] RPC: expose API for serializing access to RPC transportsChuck Lever
The next method we abstract is the one that releases a transport, allowing another task to have access to the transport. Again, one generic version of this is provided for transports that don't need the RPC client to perform congestion control, and one version is for transports that can use the original Van Jacobson implementation in xprt.c.
