2010-10-23NFS: readdir with vmapped pagesBryan Schumaker
We can use vmapped pages to read more information from the network at once. This will reduce the number of calls needed to complete a readdir.

2010-10-19NFSv4: Don't call nfs4_state_mark_reclaim_reboot() from error handlersTrond Myklebust
In the case of a server reboot, the state recovery thread starts by calling nfs4_state_end_reclaim_reboot() in order to avoid edge conditions when the server reboots while the client is in the middle of recovery. However, if the client has already marked the nfs4_state as requiring reboot recovery, then the above behaviour will cause the recovery thread to treat the open as if it was part of such an edge condition: the open will be recovered as if it was part of a lease expiration (and all the locks will be lost). Fix is to remove the call to nfs4_state_mark_reclaim_reboot from nfs4_async_handle_error(), and nfs4_handle_exception(). Instead we leave it to the recovery thread to do this for us.

2010-10-19NFSv4: Fix open recoveryTrond Myklebust
NFSv4 open recovery is currently broken: since we do not clear the state->flags states before attempting recovery, we end up with the 'can_open_cached()' function triggering. This again leads to no OPEN call being put on the wire. Reported-by: Sachin Prabhu <sprabhu@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com> Cc: stable@kernel.org
2010-09-24NFSv4.1: keep seq_res.sr_slot as pointer rather than an indexBenny Halevy
Having to explicitly initialize sr_slotid to NFS4_MAX_SLOT_TABLE resulted in numerous bugs. Keeping the current slot as a pointer to the slot table is more straight forward and robust as it's implicitly set up to NULL wherever the seq_res member is initialized to zeroes.

2010-09-21NFSv4.1: Fix the slotid initialisation in nfs_async_rename()Trond Myklebust

2010-09-17nfs: make sillyrename an async operationJeff Layton
A synchronous rename can be interrupted by a SIGKILL. If that happens during a sillyrename operation, it's possible for the rename call to be sent to the server, but the task exits before processing the reply. If this happens, the sillyrenamed file won't get cleaned up during nfs_dentry_iput and the server is left with a dangling .nfs* file hanging around. Fix this problem by turning sillyrename into an asynchronous operation and have the task doing the sillyrename just wait on the reply. If the task is killed before the sillyrename completes, it'll still proceed to completion.

2010-05-14NFS: Calldata for nfs4_renew_done()Chuck Lever
I'm about to change task->tk_start from a jiffies value to a ktime_t value in order to make RPC RTT reporting more precise. Recently (commit dc96aef9) nfs4_renew_done() started to reference task->tk_start so that a jiffies value no longer had to be passed from nfs4_proc_async_renew(). This allowed the calldata to point to an nfs_client instead. Changing task->tk_start to a ktime_t value makes it effectively useless for renew timestamps, so we need to restore the pre-dc96aef9 logic that provided a jiffies "start" timestamp to nfs4_renew_done(). Both an nfs_client pointer and a timestamp need to be passed to nfs4_renew_done(), so create a new nfs_renewdata structure that contains both, resembling what is already done for delegreturn, lock, and unlock.

2010-04-12NFSv4: fix delegated lockingTrond Myklebust
Arnaud Giersch reports that NFSv4 locking is broken when we hold a delegation since commit 8e469ebd6dc32cbaf620e134d79f740bf0ebab79 (NFSv4: Don't allow posix locking against servers that don't support it). According to Arnaud, the lock succeeds the first time he opens the file (since we cannot do a delegated open) but then fails after we start using delegated opens. The following patch fixes it by ensuring that locking behaviour is governed by a per-filesystem capability flag that is initially set, but gets cleared if the server ever returns an OPEN without the NFS4_OPEN_RESULT_LOCKTYPE_POSIX flag being set.

2010-03-30include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo
implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.
