* 'for-2.6.38' of git://linux-nfs.org/~bfields/linux: (62 commits) nfsd4: fix callback restarting nfsd: break lease on unlink, link, and rename nfsd4: break lease on nfsd setattr nfsd: don't support msnfs export option nfsd4: initialize cb_per_client nfsd4: allow restarting callbacks nfsd4: simplify nfsd4_cb_prepare nfsd4: give out delegations more quickly in 4.1 case nfsd4: add helper function to run callbacks nfsd4: make sure sequence flags are set after destroy_session nfsd4: re-probe callback on connection loss nfsd4: set sequence flag when backchannel is down nfsd4: keep finer-grained callback status rpc: allow xprt_class->setup to return a preexisting xprt rpc: keep backchannel xprt as long as server connection rpc: move sk_bc_xprt to svc_xprt nfsd4: allow backchannel recovery nfsd4: support BIND_CONN_TO_SESSION nfsd4: modify session list under cl_lock Documentation: fl_mylease no longer exists ... Fix up conflicts in fs/nfsd/vfs.c with the vfs-scale work. The vfs-scale work touched some msnfs cases, and this merge removes support for that entirely, so the conflict was trivial to resolve.

2010-09-21sunrpc/cache: change deferred-request hash table to use hlist.NeilBrown1-1/+1
Being a hash table, hlist is the best option. There is currently some ugliness were we treat "->next == NULL" as a special case to avoid having to initialise the whole array. This change nicely gets rid of that case. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@redhat.com>
2010-09-07sunrpc/cache: allow threads to block while waiting for cache update.NeilBrown1-0/+3
The current practice of waiting for cache updates by queueing the whole request to be retried has (at least) two problems. 1/ With NFSv4, requests can be quite complex and re-trying a whole request when a later part fails should only be a last-resort, not a normal practice. 2/ Large requests, and in particular any 'write' request, will not be queued by the current code and doing so would be undesirable. In many cases only a very sort wait is needed before the cache gets valid data. So, providing the underlying transport permits it by setting ->thread_wait, arrange to wait briefly for an upcall to be completed (as reflected in the clearing of CACHE_PENDING). If the short wait was not long enough and CACHE_PENDING is still set, fall back on the old approach. The 'thread_wait' value is set to 5 seconds when there are spare threads, and 1 second when there are no spare threads. These values are probably much higher than needed, but will ensure some forward progress. Note that as we only request an update for a non-valid item, and as non-valid items are updated in place it is extremely unlikely that cache_check will return -ETIMEDOUT. Normally cache_defer_req will sleep for a short while and then find that the item is_valid. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@redhat.com>
2010-09-07sunrpc: use seconds since boot in expiry cacheNeilBrown1-3/+25
This protects us from confusion when the wallclock time changes. We convert to and from wallclock when setting or reading expiry times. Also use seconds since boot for last_clost time. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@redhat.com>
2010-09-07sunrpc: extract some common sunrpc_cache code from nfsdNeilBrown1-0/+6
Rather can duplicating this idiom twice, put it in an inline function. This reduces the usage of 'expiry_time' out side the sunrpc/cache.c code and thus the impact of a change that is about to be made to that field.

2010-07-06sunrpc: make the cache cleaner workqueue deferrableArtem Bityutskiy1-0/+1
This patch makes the cache_cleaner workqueue deferrable, to prevent unnecessary system wake-ups, which is very important for embedded battery-powered devices. do_cache_clean() is called every 30 seconds at the moment, and often makes the system wake up from its power-save sleep state. With this change, when the workqueue uses a deferrable timer, the do_cache_clean() invocation will be delayed and combined with the closest "real" wake-up. This improves the power consumption situation. Note, I tried to create a DECLARE_DELAYED_WORK_DEFERRABLE() helper macro, similar to DECLARE_DELAYED_WORK(), but failed because of the way the timer wheel core stores the deferrable flag (it is the LSBit in the time->base pointer). My attempt to define a static variable with this bit set ended up with the "initializer element is not constant" error. Thus, I have to use run-time initialization, so I created a new cache_initialize() function which is called once when sunrpc is being initialized.

2009-08-09SUNRPC: Allow the cache_detail to specify alternative upcall mechanismsTrond Myklebust1-3/+10
For events that are rare, such as referral DNS lookups, it makes limited sense to have a daemon constantly listening for upcalls on a channel. An alternative in those cases might simply be to run the app that fills the cache using call_usermodehelper_exec() and friends. The following patch allows the cache_detail to specify alternative upcall mechanisms for these particular cases. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

2008-02-01knfsd: allow cache_register to return error on failureJ. Bruce Fields1-1/+1
Newer server features such as nfsv4 and gss depend on proc to work, so a failure to initialize the proc files they need should be treated as fatal.

2008-02-01knfsd: cache unregistration needn't return errorJ. Bruce Fields1-1/+1
There's really nothing much the caller can do if cache unregistration fails. And indeed, all any caller does in this case is print an error and continue. So just return void and move the printk's inside cache_unregister. Acked-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@citi.umich.edu>

2006-10-04[PATCH] knfsd: knfsd: cache ipmap per TCP socketGreg Banks1-0/+11
Speed up high call-rate workloads by caching the struct ip_map for the peer on the connected struct svc_sock instead of looking it up in the ip_map cache hashtable on every call. This helps workloads using AUTH_SYS authentication over TCP. Testing was on a 4 CPU 4 NIC Altix using 4 IRIX clients, each with 16 synthetic client threads simulating an rsync (i.e. recursive directory listing) workload reading from an i386 RH9 install image (161480 regular files in 10841 directories) on the server. That tree is small enough to fill in the server's RAM so no disk traffic was involved. This setup gives a sustained call rate in excess of 60000 calls/sec before being CPU-bound on the server. Profiling showed strcmp(), called from ip_map_match(), was taking 4.8% of each CPU, and ip_map_lookup() was taking 2.9%. This patch drops both contribution into the profile noise. Note that the above result overstates this value of this patch for most workloads. The synthetic clients are all using separate IP addresses, so there are 64 entries in the ip_map cache hash. Because the kernel measured contained the bug fixed in commit commit 1f1e030bf75774b6a283518e1534d598e14147d4 and was running on 64bit little-endian machine, probably all of those 64 entries were on a single chain, thus increasing the cost of ip_map_lookup(). With a modern kernel you would need more clients to see the same amount of performance improvement. This patch has helped to scale knfsd to handle a deployment with 2000 NFS clients.

2005-09-07[PATCH] sunrpc: cache_register can use wrong module referenceBruce Allan1-0/+1
When registering an RPC cache, cache_register() always sets the owner as the sunrpc module. However, there are RPC caches owned by other modules. With the incorrect owner setting, the real owning module can be removed potentially with an open reference to the cache from userspace. For example, if one were to stop the nfs server and unmount the nfsd filesystem, the nfsd module could be removed eventhough rpc.idmapd had references to the idtoname and nametoid caches (i.e. /proc/net/rpc/nfs4.<cachename>/channel is still open). This resulted in a system panic on one of our machines when attempting to restart the nfs services after reloading the nfsd module. The following patch adds a 'struct module *owner' field in struct cache_detail. The owner is further assigned to the struct proc_dir_entry in cache_register() so that the module cannot be unloaded while user-space daemons have an open reference on the associated file under /proc.

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds1-0/+312
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
