SUNRPC: Use RMW bitops in single-threaded hot paths

2022-05-23T15:06:29Z

I noticed CPU pipeline stalls while using perf. Once an svc thread is scheduled and executing an RPC, no other processes will touch svc_rqst::rq_flags. Thus bus-locked atomics are not needed outside the svc thread scheduler. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever

SUNRPC: Ensure that the gssproxy client can start in a connected state

2022-05-07T18:31:15Z

Ensure that the gssproxy client connects to the server from the gssproxy daemon process context so that the AF_LOCAL socket connection is done using the correct path and namespaces.

Revert "SUNRPC: Ensure gss-proxy connects on setup"

2022-05-07T18:30:40Z

This reverts commit 892de36fd4a98fab3298d417c051d9099af5448d. The gssproxy server is unresponsive when it calls into the kernel to start the upcall service, so it will not reply to our RPC ping at all.

SUNRPC: Ensure gss-proxy connects on setup

2022-04-29T16:29:31Z

For reasons best known to the author, gss-proxy does not implement a NULL procedure, and returns RPC_PROC_UNAVAIL. However we still want to ensure that we connect to the service at setup time. So add a quirk-flag specially for this case. Fixes: 1d658336b05f ("SUNRPC: Add RPC based upcall mechanism for RPCGSS auth") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust

Pull NFS client updates from Trond Myklebust: "Highlights include: Features: - Switch NFS to use readahead instead of the obsolete readpages. - Readdir fixes to improve cacheability of large directories when there are multiple readers and writers. - Readdir performance improvements when doing a seekdir() immediately after opening the directory (common when re-exporting NFS). - NFS swap improvements from Neil Brown. - Loosen up memory allocation to permit direct reclaim and write back in cases where there is no danger of deadlocking the writeback code or NFS swap. - Avoid sillyrename when the NFSv4 server claims to support the necessary features to recover the unlinked but open file after reboot. Bugfixes: - Patch from Olga to add a mount option to control NFSv4.1 session trunking discovery, and default it to being off. - Fix a lockup in nfs_do_recoalesce(). - Two fixes for list iterator variables being used when pointing to the list head. - Fix a kernel memory scribble when reading from a non-socket transport in /sys/kernel/sunrpc. - Fix a race where reconnecting to a server could leave the TCP socket stuck forever in the connecting state. - Patch from Neil to fix a shutdown race which can leave the SUNRPC transport timer primed after we free the struct xprt itself. - Patch from Xin Xiong to fix reference count leaks in the NFSv4.2 copy offload. - Sunrpc patch from Olga to avoid resending a task on an offlined transport. Cleanups: - Patches from Dave Wysochanski to clean up the fscache code" * tag 'nfs-for-5.18-1' of git://git.linux-nfs.org/projects/trondmy/linux-nfs: (91 commits) NFSv4/pNFS: Fix another issue with a list iterator pointing to the head NFS: Don't loop forever in nfs_do_recoalesce() SUNRPC: Don't return error values in sysfs read of closed files SUNRPC: Do not dereference non-socket transports in sysfs NFSv4.1: don't retry BIND_CONN_TO_SESSION on session error SUNRPC don't resend a task on an offlined transport NFS: replace usage of found with dedicated list iterator variable SUNRPC: avoid race between mod_timer() and del_timer_sync() pNFS/files: Ensure pNFS allocation modes are consistent with nfsiod pNFS/flexfiles: Ensure pNFS allocation modes are consistent with nfsiod NFSv4/pnfs: Ensure pNFS allocation modes are consistent with nfsiod NFS: Avoid writeback threads getting stuck in mempool_alloc() NFS: nfsiod should not block forever in mempool_alloc() SUNRPC: Make the rpciod and xprtiod slab allocation modes consistent SUNRPC: Fix unx_lookup_cred() allocation NFS: Fix memory allocation in rpc_alloc_task() NFS: Fix memory allocation in rpc_malloc() SUNRPC: Improve accuracy of socket ENOBUFS determination SUNRPC: Replace internal use of SOCKWQ_ASYNC_NOSPACE SUNRPC: Fix socket waits for write buffer space ...

SUNRPC/auth: async tasks mustn't block waiting for memory

2022-03-13T16:59:35Z

When memory is short, new worker threads cannot be created and we depend on the minimum one rpciod thread to be able to handle everything. So it must not block waiting for memory. mempools are particularly a problem as memory can only be released back to the mempool by an async rpc task running. If all available workqueue threads are waiting on the mempool, no thread is available to return anything. lookup_cred() can block on a mempool or kmalloc - and this can cause deadlocks. So add a new RPCAUTH_LOOKUP flag for async lookups and don't block on memory. If the -ENOMEM gets back to call_refreshresult(), wait a short while and try again. HZ>>4 is chosen as it is used elsewhere for -ENOMEM retries. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust

[You don't often get email from colin.i.king@gmail.com.
