2016-05-17pnfs: rework LAYOUTGET retry handlingJeff Layton1-5/+1
There are several problems in the way a stateid is selected for a LAYOUTGET operation: We pick a stateid to use in the RPC prepare op, but that makes it difficult to serialize LAYOUTGETs that use the open stateid. That serialization is done in pnfs_update_layout, which occurs well before the rpc_prepare operation. Between those two events, the i_lock is dropped and reacquired. pnfs_update_layout can find that the list has lsegs in it and not do any serialization, but then later pnfs_choose_layoutget_stateid ends up choosing the open stateid. This patch changes the client to select the stateid to use in the LAYOUTGET earlier, when we're searching for a usable layout segment. This way we can do it all while holding the i_lock the first time, and ensure that we serialize any LAYOUTGET call that uses a non-layout stateid. This also means a rework of how LAYOUTGET replies are handled, as we must now get the latest stateid if we want to retransmit in response to a retryable error. Most of those errors boil down to the fact that the layout state has changed in some fashion. Thus, what we really want to do is to re-search for a layout when it fails with a retryable error, so that we can avoid reissuing the RPC at all if possible. While the LAYOUTGET RPC is async, the initiating thread always waits for it to complete, so it's effectively synchronous anyway. Currently, when we need to retry a LAYOUTGET because of an error, we drive that retry via the rpc state machine. This means that once the call has been submitted, it runs until it completes. So, we must move the error handling for this RPC out of the rpc_call_done operation and into the caller. In order to handle errors like NFS4ERR_DELAY properly, we must also pass a pointer to the sliding timeout, which is now moved to the stack in pnfs_update_layout. The complicating errors are -NFS4ERR_RECALLCONFLICT and -NFS4ERR_LAYOUTTRYLATER, as those involve a timeout after which we give up and return NULL back to the caller. So, there is some special handling for those errors to ensure that the layers driving the retries can handle that appropriately.

2016-05-17pnfs: only tear down lsegs that precede seqid in LAYOUTRETURN argsJeff Layton1-2/+4
LAYOUTRETURN is "special" in that servers and clients are expected to work with old stateids. When the client sends a LAYOUTRETURN with an old stateid in it then the server is expected to only tear down layout segments that were present when that seqid was current. Ensure that the client handles its accounting accordingly. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jeff.layton@primarydata.com> Signed-off-by: Anna Schumaker <Anna.Schumaker@Netapp.com>
2016-05-17pnfs: keep track of the return sequence number in pnfs_layout_hdrJeff Layton1-0/+1
When we want to selectively do a LAYOUTRETURN, we need to specify a stateid that represents most recent layout acquisition that is to be returned. When we mark a layout stateid to be returned, we update the return sequence number in the layout header with that value, if it's newer than the existing one. Then, when we go to do a LAYOUTRETURN on layout header put, we overwrite the seqid in the stateid with the saved one, and then zero it out.

2016-05-17pnfs: record sequence in pnfs_layout_segment when it's createdJeff Layton1-0/+1
In later patches, we're going to teach the client to be more selective about how it returns layouts. This means keeping a record of what the stateid's seqid was at the time that the server handed out a layout segment.

2016-05-09pnfs: set NFS_IOHDR_REDO in pnfs_read_resend_pnfsWeston Andros Adamson1-1/+1
Like other resend paths, mark the (old) hdr as NFS_IOHDR_REDO. This ensures the hdr completion function will not count the (old) hdr as good bytes. Also, vector the error back through the hdr->task.tk_status like other retry calls. This fixes a bug with the FlexFiles layout where libaio was reporting more bytes read than requested.

2015-09-23NFS41: make close wait for layoutreturnPeng Tao1-0/+7

2015-08-25NFS41: remove NFS_LAYOUT_ROC flagPeng Tao1-1/+0
If we return delegation before closing, we fail to do roc check during close because NFS_LAYOUT_ROC is cleared by delegreturn and it causes layouts to be still hanging around after delegreturn + close, which is a voilation against protocol.

2015-08-18NFSv4.1/pnfs: Fix a close/delegreturn hang when return-on-close is setTrond Myklebust1-4/+3
The helper pnfs_roc() has already verified that we have no delegations, and no further open files, hence no outstanding I/O and it has marked all the return-on-close lsegs as being invalid. Furthermore, it sets the NFS_LAYOUT_RETURN bit, thus serialising the close/delegreturn with all future layoutget calls on this inode. The checks in pnfs_roc_drain() for valid layout segments are therefore redundant: those cannot exist until another layoutget completes. The other check for whether or not NFS_LAYOUT_RETURN is set, actually causes a hang, since we already know that we hold that flag. To fix, we therefore strip out all the functionality in pnfs_roc_drain() except the retrieval of the barrier state, and then rename the function accordingly.

2015-03-27NFSv4.1/pnfs: Separate out metadata and data consistency for pNFSTrond Myklebust1-0/+18
The LAYOUTCOMMIT operation means different things to different layout types. For blocks and objects, it is both a data and metadata consistency operation. For files and flexfiles, it is only a metadata consistency operation.
