2010-10-27writeback: remove nonblocking/encountered_congestion referencesWu Fengguang1-3/+1
This removes more dead code that was somehow missed by commit 0d99519efef (writeback: remove unused nonblocking and congestion checks). There are no behavior change except for the removal of two entries from one of the ext4 tracing interface. The nonblocking checks in ->writepages are no longer used because the flusher now prefer to block on get_request_wait() than to skip inodes on IO congestion. The latter will lead to more seeky IO. The nonblocking checks in ->writepage are no longer used because it's redundant with the WB_SYNC_NONE check. We no long set ->nonblocking in VM page out and page migration, because a) it's effectively redundant with WB_SYNC_NONE in current code b) it's old semantic of "Don't get stuck on request queues" is mis-behavior: that would skip some dirty inodes on congestion and page out others, which is unfair in terms of LRU age.

Add the ability to actually send LAYOUTGET and GETDEVICEINFO. This also adds in the machinery to handle layout state and the deviceid cache.

2010-10-25NFS: client needs to maintain list of inodes with active layoutsAndy Adamson4-4/+176
In particular, server reboot will invalidate all layouts. Note that in order to have an active layout, we must get a successful response from the server. To avoid adding that machinery, this patch just includes a stub that fakes up a successful return. Since the layout is never referenced for io, this is not a problem.

This information will be used to determine which layout driver, if any, to use for subsequent IO on this filesystem. Each driver is assigned an integer id, with 0 reserved to indicate no driver.

2010-10-25Revalidate caches on lockRicardo Labiaga3-4/+20
Instead of blindly zapping the caches, attempt to revalidate them if the server has indicated that it uses high resolution timestamps. NFSv4 should be able to always revalidate the cache since the protocol requires the update of the change attribute on modification of the data. In reality, there are servers (the Linux NFS server for example) that do not obey this requirement and use ctime as the basis for change attribute. Long term, the server needs to be fixed. At this time, and to be on the safe side, continue zapping caches if the server indicates that it does not have a high resolution timestamp.

2010-10-23NFS: Readdir plus in v4Bryan Schumaker8-38/+39
By requsting more attributes during a readdir, we can mimic the readdir plus operation that was in NFSv3. To test, I ran the command `ls -lU --color=none` on directories with various numbers of files. Without readdir plus, I see this: n files | 100 | 1,000 | 10,000 | 100,000 | 1,000,000 --------+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+---------- real | 0m00.153s | 0m00.589s | 0m05.601s | 0m56.691s | 9m59.128s user | 0m00.007s | 0m00.007s | 0m00.077s | 0m00.703s | 0m06.800s sys | 0m00.010s | 0m00.070s | 0m00.633s | 0m06.423s | 1m10.005s access | 3 | 1 | 1 | 4 | 31 getattr | 2 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 lookup | 104 | 1,003 | 10,003 | 100,003 | 1,000,003 readdir | 2 | 16 | 158 | 1,575 | 15,749 total | 111 | 1,021 | 10,163 | 101,583 | 1,015,784 With readdir plus enabled, I see this: n files | 100 | 1,000 | 10,000 | 100,000 | 1,000,000 --------+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+---------- real | 0m00.115s | 0m00.206s | 0m01.079s | 0m12.521s | 2m07.528s user | 0m00.003s | 0m00.003s | 0m00.040s | 0m00.290s | 0m03.296s sys | 0m00.007s | 0m00.020s | 0m00.120s | 0m01.357s | 0m17.556s access | 3 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 7 getattr | 2 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 lookup | 4 | 3 | 3 | 3 | 3 readdir | 6 | 62 | 630 | 6,300 | 62,993 total | 15 | 67 | 635 | 6,305 | 63,004 Readdir plus disabled has about a 16x increase in the number of rpc calls and is 4 - 5 times slower on large directories.

It then modifies readdir to make use of the new cache array. With the new cache array method, we no longer need some of this code. Finally, nfs_llseek_dir() will set file->f_pos to a value greater than 0 and desc->dir_cookie to zero. When we see this, readdir needs to find the file at position file->f_pos from the start of the directory.

2010-10-21BKL: introduce CONFIG_BKL.Arnd Bergmann1-0/+1
With all the patches we have queued in the BKL removal tree, only a few dozen modules are left that actually rely on the BKL, and even there are lots of low-hanging fruit. We need to decide what to do about them, this patch illustrates one of the options: Every user of the BKL is marked as 'depends on BKL' in Kconfig, and the CONFIG_BKL becomes a user-visible option. If it gets disabled, no BKL using module can be built any more and the BKL code itself is compiled out. The one exception is file locking, which is practically always enabled and does a 'select BKL' instead. This effectively forces CONFIG_BKL to be enabled until we have solved the fs/lockd mess and can apply the patch that removes the BKL from fs/locks.c. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

2010-10-20NFSv4: Don't call nfs4_state_mark_reclaim_reboot() from error handlersTrond Myklebust1-6/+0
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.

2010-10-20NFSv4: Fix open recoveryTrond Myklebust1-0/+3
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
2010-10-20NFS: Don't SIGBUS if nfs_vm_page_mkwrite races with a cache invalidationTrond Myklebust1-9/+8
In the case where we lock the page, and then find out that the page has been thrown out of the page cache, we should just return VM_FAULT_NOPAGE. This is what block_page_mkwrite() does in these situations. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com> Cc: stable@kernel.org
2010-10-08NFS: new idmapperBryan Schumaker5-4/+231
This patch creates a new idmapper system that uses the request-key function to place a call into userspace to map user and group ids to names. The old idmapper was single threaded, which prevented more than one request from running at a single time. This means that a user would have to wait for an upcall to finish before accessing a cached result. The upcall result is stored on a keyring of type id_resolver. See the file Documentation/filesystems/nfs/idmapper.txt for instructions.

2010-10-05fs/locks.c: prepare for BKL removalArnd Bergmann2-10/+10
This prepares the removal of the big kernel lock from the file locking code. We still use the BKL as long as fs/lockd uses it and ceph might sleep, but we can flip the definition to a private spinlock as soon as that's done. All users outside of fs/lockd get converted to use lock_flocks() instead of lock_kernel() where appropriate. Based on an earlier patch to use a spinlock from Matthew Wilcox, who has attempted this a few times before, the earliest patch from over 10 years ago turned it into a semaphore, which ended up being slower than the BKL and was subsequently reverted. Someone should do some serious performance testing when this becomes a spinlock, since this has caused problems before. Using a spinlock should be at least as good as the BKL in theory, but who knows...
