2018-04-10NFSv4: Ignore change attribute invalidations if we hold a delegationTrond Myklebust1-0/+3
Don't bother even recording an invalid change attribute if we hold a delegation since we already know the state of our attribute cache. We can rely on the fact that we will pick up a copy from the server when we return the delegation.

2018-04-10NFS: More fine grained attribute trackingTrond Myklebust5-54/+94
Currently, if the NFS_INO_INVALID_ATTR flag is set, for instance by a call to nfs_post_op_update_inode_locked(), then it will not be cleared until all the attributes have been revalidated. This means, for instance, that NFSv4 writes will always force a full attribute revalidation. Track the ctime, mtime, size and change attribute separately from the other attributes so that we can have nfs_post_op_update_inode_locked() set them correctly, and later have the cache consistency bitmask be able to clear them.

2018-04-10NFSv4: Don't return the delegation when not needed by NFSv4.x (x>0)Trond Myklebust3-6/+28
Starting with NFSv4.1, the server is able to deduce the client id from the SEQUENCE op which means it can always figure out whether or not the client is holding a delegation on a file that is being changed. For that reason, RFC5661 does not require a delegation to be unconditionally recalled on operations such as SETATTR, RENAME, or REMOVE. Note that for now, we continue to return READ delegations since that is still expected by the Linux knfsd server.

Michal Kalderon has found some corner cases around device unload with active NFS mounts that I didn't have the imagination to test when xprtrdma device removal was added last year. - The ULP device removal handler is responsible for deallocating the PD. That wasn't clear to me initially, and my own testing suggested it was not necessary, but that is incorrect. - The transport destruction path can no longer assume that there is a valid ID. - When destroying a transport, ensure that ib_free_cq() is not invoked on a CQ that was already released.

This information can help track down local misconfiguration issues as well as network partitions and unresponsive servers. There are several ways to send a ping, and with transport multi- plexing, the exact rpc_xprt that is used is sometimes not known by the upper layer. The rpc_xprt pointer passed to the trace point call also has to be RCU-safe. I found a spot inside the client FSM where an rpc_xprt pointer is always available and safe to use.

2018-04-10SUNRPC: Make RTT measurement more precise (Send)Chuck Lever3-1/+4
Some RPC transports have more overhead in their send_request callouts than others. For example, for RPC-over-RDMA: - Marshaling an RPC often has to DMA map the RPC arguments - Registration methods perform memory registration as part of marshaling To capture just server and network latencies more precisely: when sending a Call, capture the rq_xtime timestamp _after_ the transport header has been marshaled.

2018-04-10SUNRPC: Make RTT measurement more precise (Receive)Chuck Lever1-2/+3
Some RPC transports have more overhead in their reply handlers than others. For example, for RPC-over-RDMA: - RPC completion has to wait for memory invalidation, which is not a part of the server/network round trip - Recently a context switch was introduced into the reply handler, which further artificially inflates the measure of RPC RTT To capture just server and network latencies more precisely: when receiving a reply, compute the RTT as soon as the XID is recognized rather than at RPC completion time.

2018-04-10xprtrdma: Move creation of rl_rdmabuf to rpcrdma_create_reqChuck Lever3-34/+12
Refactor: Both rpcrdma_create_req call sites have to allocate the buffer where the transport header is built, so just move that allocation into rpcrdma_create_req. This buffer is a fixed size. There's no needed information available in call_allocate that is not also available when the transport is created. The original purpose for allocating these buffers on demand was to reduce the possibility that an allocation failure during transport creation will hork the mount operation during low memory scenarios. Some relief for this rare possibility is coming up in the next few patches. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Anna Schumaker <Anna.Schumaker@Netapp.com>

2018-04-10xprtrdma: "Support" call-only RPCsChuck Lever3-6/+13
RPC-over-RDMA version 1 credit accounting relies on there being a response message for every RPC Call. This means that RPC procedures that have no reply will disrupt credit accounting, just in the same way as a retransmit would (since it is sent because no reply has arrived).

2018-04-10xprtrdma: ->send_request returns -EAGAIN when there are no free MRsChuck Lever5-13/+27
Currently, when the MR free list is exhausted during marshaling, the RPC/RDMA transport places the RPC task on the delayq, which forces a wait for HZ >> 2 before the marshal and send is retried. With this change, the transport now places such an RPC task on the pending queue, and wakes it just as soon as more MRs have been created. Creating more MRs typically takes less than a millisecond, and this waking mechanism is less deadlock-prone. Moreover, the waiting RPC task is holding the transport's write lock, which blocks the transport from sending RPCs. Therefore faster recovery from MR exhaustion is desirable. This is the same mechanism that the TCP transport utilizes when handling write buffer space exhaustion.

2018-04-10xprtrdma: Fix latency regression on NUMA NFS/RDMA clientsChuck Lever3-4/+1
With v4.15, on one of my NFS/RDMA clients I measured a nearly doubling in the latency of small read and write system calls. There was no change in server round trip time. The extra latency appears in the whole RPC execution path. "git bisect" settled on commit ccede7598588 ("xprtrdma: Spread reply processing over more CPUs") . After some experimentation, I found that leaving the WQ bound and allowing the scheduler to pick the dispatch CPU seems to eliminate the long latencies, and it does not introduce any new regressions. The fix is implemented by reverting only the part of commit ccede7598588 ("xprtrdma: Spread reply processing over more CPUs") that dispatches RPC replies specifically on the CPU where the matching RPC call was made. Interestingly, saving the CPU number and later queuing reply processing there was effective _only_ for a NFS READ and WRITE request. On my NUMA client, in-kernel RPC reply processing for asynchronous RPCs was dispatched on the same CPU where the RPC call was made, as expected. However synchronous RPCs seem to get their reply dispatched on some other CPU than where the call was placed, every time. Fixes: ccede7598588 ("xprtrdma: Spread reply processing over ...

2018-03-02libnvdimm: re-enable deep flush for pmem devices via fsync()Dave Jiang1-2/+1
Re-enable deep flush so that users always have a way to be sure that a write makes it all the way out to media. Writes from the PMEM driver always arrive at the NVDIMM since movnt is used to bypass the cache, and the driver relies on the ADR (Asynchronous DRAM Refresh) mechanism to flush write buffers on power failure. The Deep Flush mechanism is there to explicitly write buffers to protect against (rare) ADR failure. This change prevents a regression in deep flush behavior so that applications can continue to depend on fsync() as a mechanism to trigger deep flush in the filesystem-DAX case.

2018-03-02vfio: disable filesystem-dax page pinningDan Williams1-3/+15
Filesystem-DAX is incompatible with 'longterm' page pinning. Without page cache indirection a DAX mapping maps filesystem blocks directly. This means that the filesystem must not modify a file's block map while any page in a mapping is pinned. In order to prevent the situation of userspace holding of filesystem operations indefinitely, disallow 'longterm' Filesystem-DAX mappings. RDMA has the same conflict and the plan there is to add a 'with lease' mechanism to allow the kernel to notify userspace that the mapping is being torn down for block-map maintenance. Perhaps something similar can be put in place for vfio. Note that xfs and ext4 still report: "DAX enabled. Warning: EXPERIMENTAL, use at your own risk" ...at mount time, and resolving the dax-dma-vs-truncate problem is one of the last hurdles to remove that designation.

2018-03-02parisc: Fix ordering of cache and TLB flushesJohn David Anglin3-26/+54
The change to flush_kernel_vmap_range() wasn't sufficient to avoid the SMP stalls.  The problem is some drivers call these routines with interrupts disabled.  Interrupts need to be enabled for flush_tlb_all() and flush_cache_all() to work.  This version adds checks to ensure interrupts are not disabled before calling routines that need IPI interrupts.  When interrupts are disabled, we now drop into slower code. The attached change fixes the ordering of cache and TLB flushes in several cases.  When we flush the cache using the existing PTE/TLB entries, we need to flush the TLB after doing the cache flush.  We don't need to do this when we flush the entire instruction and data caches as these flushes don't use the existing TLB entries.  The same is true for tmpalias region flushes. The flush_kernel_vmap_range() and invalidate_kernel_vmap_range() routines have been updated. Secondly, we added a new purge_kernel_dcache_range_asm() routine to pacache.S and use it in invalidate_kernel_vmap_range().  Nominally, purges are faster than flushes as the cache lines don't have to be written back to memory. Hopefully, this is sufficient to resolve the remaining problems due to cache speculation.  So far, testing indicates that this is the case.  I did work up a patch using tmpalias flushes, but there is a performance hit because we need the physical address for each page, and we also need to sequence access to the tmpalias flush code.  This increases the probability of stalls.
