2009-12-03SUNRPC: soft connect semantics for UDPChuck Lever1-0/+4
Introduce soft connect behavior for UDP transports. In this case, a major timeout returns ETIMEDOUT instead of EIO. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2009-12-03SUNRPC: Use soft connect semantics when performing RPC pingChuck Lever1-5/+5
Currently, if a remote RPC service is unreachable, an RPC ping will hang until the underlying transport connect attempt times out. A more desirable behavior might be to have the ping fail immediately so upper layers can recover appropriately. In the case of an NFS mount, for instance, this would mean the mount(2) system call could fail immediately if the server isn't listening, rather than hanging uninterruptibly for more than 3 minutes. Change rpc_ping() so that it fails immediately for connection-oriented transports. rpc_create() will then fail immediately for such transports if an RPC ping was requested.

2009-12-03SUNRPC: Use soft connects for autobinding over TCPChuck Lever2-2/+17
Autobinding is handled by the rpciod process, not in user processes that are generating regular RPC requests. Thus autobinding is usually not affected by signals targetting user processes, such as KILL or timer expiration events. In addition, an RPC request generated by a user process that has RPC_TASK_SOFTCONN set and needs to perform an autobind will hang if the remote rpcbind service is not available. For rpcbind queries on connection-oriented transports, let's use the new soft connect semantic to return control to the user's process quickly, if the kernel's rpcbind client can't connect to the remote rpcbind service. Logic is introduced in call_bind_status() to handle connection errors that occurred during an asynchronous rpcbind query. The logic abandons the rpcbind query if the RPC request has SOFTCONN set, and retries after a few seconds in the normal case.

2009-12-03SUNRPC: Use TCP for local rpcbind upcallsChuck Lever1-2/+2
Use TCP with the soft connect semantic for local rpcbind upcalls so the kernel can detect immediately if the local rpcbind daemon is not running. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com>
2009-12-03SUNRPC: Use a cached RPC client and transport for rpcbind upcallsChuck Lever2-16/+80
The kernel's rpcbind client creates and deletes an rpc_clnt and its underlying transport socket for every upcall to the local rpcbind daemon. When starting a typical NFS server on IPv4 and IPv6, the NFS service itself does three upcalls (one per version) times two upcalls (one per transport) times two upcalls (one per address family), making 12, plus another one for the initial call to unregister previous NFS services. Starting the NLM service adds an additional 13 upcalls, for similar reasons. (Currently the NFS service doesn't start IPv6 listeners, but it will soon enough). Instead, let's create an rpc_clnt for rpcbind upcalls during the first local rpcbind query, and cache it. This saves the overhead of creating and destroying an rpc_clnt and a socket for every upcall. The new logic also prevents the kernel from attempting an RPCB_SET or RPCB_UNSET if it knows from the start that the local portmapper does not support rpcbind protocol version 4. This will cut down on the number of rpcbind upcalls in legacy environments. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com>
2009-12-03SUNRPC: Simplify synopsis of rpcb_local_clnt()Chuck Lever1-7/+4

Get rid of the @addr and @addrlen arguments to rpcb_local_clnt(). Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2009-12-03SUNRPC: Allow RPCs to fail quickly if the server is unreachableChuck Lever2-3/+10
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.

2009-12-03SUNRPC: Check explicitly for tk_status == 0 in call_transmit_status()Chuck Lever1-0/+12
The success case, where task->tk_status == 0, is by far the most frequent case in call_transmit_status(). The default: arm of the switch statement in call_transmit_status() handles the 0 case. default: was moved close to the top of the switch statement in call_transmit_status() under the theory that the compiler places object code for the earliest arms of a switch statement first, making the CPU do less work. The default: arm of a switch statement, however, is executed only after all the other cases have been checked. Even if the compiler rearranges the object code, the default: arm is the "last resort", meaning all of the other cases have been explicitly exhausted. That makes the current arrangement about as inefficient as it gets for the common case. To fix this, add an explicit check for zero before the switch statement. That forces the compiler to do the zero check first, no matter what optimizations it might try to do to the switch statement.

2009-12-03RPC: Fix two potential races in put_rpccredTrond Myklebust1-16/+23
It is possible for rpcauth_destroy_credcache() to cause the rpc credentials to be unhashed while put_rpccred is waiting for the rpc_credcache_lock on another cpu. Should this happen, then we can end up calling hlist_del_rcu(&cred->cr_hash) a second time in put_rpccred, thus causing list corruption. Should the credential actually be hashed, it is also possible for rpcauth_lookup_credcache to find and reference it before we get round to unhashing it. In this case, the call to rpcauth_unhash_cred will fail, and so we should just exit without destroying the cred.

2009-09-23NFS/RPC: fix problems with reestablish_timeout and related code.Neil Brown1-0/+9
[[resending with correct cc: - "vfs.kernel.org" just isn't right!]] xprt->reestablish_timeout is used to cause TCP connection attempts to back off if the connection fails so as not to hammer the network, but to still allow immediate connections when there is no reason to believe there is a problem. It is not used for the first connection (when transport->sock is NULL) but only on reconnects. It is currently set: a/ to 0 when xs_tcp_state_change finds a state of TCP_FIN_WAIT1 on the assumption that the client has closed the connection so the reconnect should be immediate when needed. b/ to at least XS_TCP_INIT_REEST_TO when xs_tcp_state_change detects TCP_CLOSING or TCP_CLOSE_WAIT on the assumption that the server closed the connection so a small delay at least is required. c/ as above when xs_tcp_state_change detects TCP_SYN_SENT, so that it is never 0 while a connection has been attempted, else the doubling will produce 0 and there will be no backoff. d/ to double is value (up to a limit) when delaying a connection, thus providing exponential backoff and e/ to XS_TCP_INIT_REEST_TO in xs_setup_tcp as simple initialisation. So you can see it is highly dependant on xs_tcp_state_change being called as expected. However experimental evidence shows that xs_tcp_state_change does not see all state changes. ("rpcdebug -m rpc trans" can help show what actually happens). Results show: TCP_ESTABLISHED is reported when a connection is made. TCP_SYN_SENT is never reported, so rule 'c' above is never effective. When the server closes the connection, TCP_CLOSE_WAIT and TCP_LAST_ACK *might* be reported, and TCP_CLOSE is always reported. This rule 'b' above will sometimes be effective, but not reliably. When the client closes the connection, it used to result in TCP_FIN_WAIT1, TCP_FIN_WAIT2, TCP_CLOSE. However since commit f75e674 (SUNRPC: Fix the problem of EADDRNOTAVAIL syslog floods on reconnect) we don't see *any* events on client-close. I think this is because xs_restore_old_callbacks is called to disconnect xs_tcp_state_change before the socket is closed. In any case, rule 'a' no longer applies. So all that is left are rule d, which successfully doubles the timeout which is never rest, and rule e which initialises the timeout. Even if the rules worked as expected, there would be a problem because a successful connection does not reset the timeout, so a sequence of events where the server closes the connection (e.g. during failover testing) will cause longer and longer timeouts with no good reason. This patch: - sets reestablish_timeout to 0 in xs_close thus effecting rule 'a' - sets it to 0 in xs_tcp_data_ready to ensure that a successful connection resets the timeout - sets it to at least XS_TCP_INIT_REEST_TO after it is doubled, thus effecting rule c I have not reimplemented rule b and the new version of rule c seems sufficient. I suspect other code in xs_tcp_data_ready needs to be revised as well. For example I don't think connect_cookie is being incremented as often as it should be.

2009-09-18sunrpc/cache: avoid variable over-loading in cache_defer_reqNeilBrown1-9/+9
In cache_defer_req, 'dreq' is used for two significantly different values that happen to be of the same type. This is both confusing, and makes it hard to extend the range of one of the values as we will in the next patch. So introduce 'discard' to take one of the values.

2009-09-18sunrpc/cache: use list_del_init for the list_head entries in cache_deferred_reqNeilBrown1-4/+4
Using list_del_init is generally safer than list_del, and it will allow us, in a subsequent patch, to see if an entry has already been processed or not. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@citi.umich.edu>
