2022-04-07SUNRPC: Handle allocation failure in rpc_new_task()Trond Myklebust1-0/+5
If the call to rpc_alloc_task() fails, then ensure that the calldata is released, and that rpc_run_task() and rpc_run_bc_task() bail out early. Reported-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> Fixes: 910ad38697d9 ("NFS: Fix memory allocation in rpc_alloc_task()") Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@hammerspace.com>

2022-03-22NFS: Fix memory allocation in rpc_malloc()Trond Myklebust1-7/+14
When in a low memory situation, we do want rpciod to kick off direct reclaim in the case where that helps, however we don't want it looping forever in mempool_alloc(). So first try allocating from the slab using GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_NORETRY, and then fall back to a GFP_NOWAIT allocation from the mempool. Ditto for rpc_alloc_task() Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@hammerspace.com>
2022-03-13SUNRPC: improve 'swap' handling: scheduling and PF_MEMALLOCNeilBrown1-3/+17
rpc tasks can be marked as RPC_TASK_SWAPPER. This causes GFP_MEMALLOC to be used for some allocations. This is needed in some cases, but not in all where it is currently provided, and in some where it isn't provided. Currently *all* tasks associated with a rpc_client on which swap is enabled get the flag and hence some GFP_MEMALLOC support. GFP_MEMALLOC is provided for ->buf_alloc() but only swap-writes need it. However xdr_alloc_bvec does not get GFP_MEMALLOC - though it often does need it. xdr_alloc_bvec is called while the XPRT_LOCK is held. If this blocks, then it blocks all other queued tasks. So this allocation needs GFP_MEMALLOC for *all* requests, not just writes, when the xprt is used for any swap writes. Similarly, if the transport is not connected, that will block all requests including swap writes, so memory allocations should get GFP_MEMALLOC if swap writes are possible. So with this patch: 1/ we ONLY set RPC_TASK_SWAPPER for swap writes. 2/ __rpc_execute() sets PF_MEMALLOC while handling any task with RPC_TASK_SWAPPER set, or when handling any task that holds the XPRT_LOCKED lock on an xprt used for swap. This removes the need for the RPC_IS_SWAPPER() test in ->buf_alloc handlers. 3/ xprt_prepare_transmit() sets PF_MEMALLOC after locking any task to a swapper xprt. __rpc_execute() will clear it. 3/ PF_MEMALLOC is set for all the connect workers.

2022-03-13SUNRPC: remove scheduling boost for "SWAPPER" tasks.NeilBrown1-7/+0
Currently, tasks marked as "swapper" tasks get put to the front of non-priority rpc_queues, and are sorted earlier than non-swapper tasks on the transport's ->xmit_queue. This is pointless as currently *all* tasks for a mount that has swap enabled on *any* file are marked as "swapper" tasks. So the net result is that the non-priority rpc_queues are reverse-ordered (LIFO). This scheduling boost is not necessary to avoid deadlocks, and hurts fairness, so remove it. If there were a need to expedite some requests, the tk_priority mechanism is a more appropriate tool.

2022-03-13SUNRPC/call_alloc: async tasks mustn't block waiting for memoryNeilBrown1-1/+3
When memory is short, new worker threads cannot be created and we depend on the minimum one rpciod thread to be able to handle everything. So it must not block waiting for memory. mempools are particularly a problem as memory can only be released back to the mempool by an async rpc task running. If all available workqueue threads are waiting on the mempool, no thread is available to return anything. rpc_malloc() can block, and this might cause deadlocks. So check RPC_IS_ASYNC(), rather than RPC_IS_SWAPPER() to determine if blocking is acceptable. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@hammerspace.com>

When find a task from wait queue to wake up, a non-privileged task may be found out, rather than the privileged. This maybe lead a deadlock same as commit dfe1fe75e00e ("NFSv4: Fix deadlock between nfs4_evict_inode() and nfs4_opendata_get_inode()"): Privileged delegreturn task is queued to privileged list because all the slots are assigned. If there has no enough slot to wake up the non-privileged batch tasks(session less than 8 slot), then the privileged delegreturn task maybe lost waked up because the found out task can't get slot since the session is on draining. So we should treate the privileged task as the emergency task, and execute it as for as we can.

2019-11-22SUNRPC: Capture completion of all RPC tasksChuck Lever1-0/+1
RPC tasks on the backchannel never invoke xprt_complete_rqst(), so there is no way to report their tk_status at completion.

Introduce a trace point that is symmetrical with rpc_task_begin that captures the termination status of each RPC task. Sample trace output for callback requests initiated on the server: kworker/u8:12-448 [003] 127.025240: rpc_task_end: task:50@3 flags=ASYNC|DYNAMIC|SOFT|SOFTCONN|SENT runstate=RUNNING|ACTIVE status=0 action=rpc_exit_task kworker/u8:12-448 [002] 127.567310: rpc_task_end: task:51@3 flags=ASYNC|DYNAMIC|SOFT|SOFTCONN|SENT runstate=RUNNING|ACTIVE status=0 action=rpc_exit_task kworker/u8:12-448 [001] 130.506817: rpc_task_end: task:52@3 flags=ASYNC|DYNAMIC|SOFT|SOFTCONN|SENT runstate=RUNNING|ACTIVE status=0 action=rpc_exit_task Odd, though, that I never see trace_rpc_task_complete, either in the forward or backchannel.

2018-12-19NFS/NFSD/SUNRPC: replace generic creds with 'struct cred'.NeilBrown1-1/+1
SUNRPC has two sorts of credentials, both of which appear as "struct rpc_cred". There are "generic credentials" which are supplied by clients such as NFS and passed in 'struct rpc_message' to indicate which user should be used to authorize the request, and there are low-level credentials such as AUTH_NULL, AUTH_UNIX, AUTH_GSS which describe the credential to be sent over the wires. This patch replaces all the generic credentials by 'struct cred' pointers - the credential structure used throughout Linux. For machine credentials, there is a special 'struct cred *' pointer which is statically allocated and recognized where needed as having a special meaning. A look-up of a low-level cred will map this to a machine credential. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.com> Acked-by: J.

2018-12-19SUNRPC: add side channel to use non-generic cred for rpc call.NeilBrown1-0/+3
The credential passed in rpc_message.rpc_cred is always a generic credential except in one instance. When gss_destroying_context() calls rpc_call_null(), it passes a specific credential that it needs to destroy. In this case the RPC acts *on* the credential rather than being authorized by it. This special case deserves explicit support and providing that will mean that rpc_message.rpc_cred is *always* generic, allowing some optimizations. So add "tk_op_cred" to rpc_task and "rpc_op_cred" to the setup data. Use this to pass the cred down from rpc_call_null(), and have rpcauth_bindcred() notice it and bind it in place.
