2008-02-10NLM: don't requeue block if it was invalidated while GRANT_MSG was in flightJeff Layton
It's possible for lockd to catch a SIGKILL while a GRANT_MSG callback is in flight. If this happens we don't want lockd to insert the block back into the nlm_blocked list. This helps that situation, but there's still a possible race. Fixing that will mean adding real locking for nlm_blocked. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: J.

2008-02-10NLM: don't reattempt GRANT_MSG when there is already an RPC in flightJeff Layton
With the current scheme in nlmsvc_grant_blocked, we can end up with more than one GRANT_MSG callback for a block in flight. Right now, we requeue the block unconditionally so that a GRANT_MSG callback is done again in 30s. If the client is unresponsive, it can take more than 30s for the call already in flight to time out. There's no benefit to having more than one GRANT_MSG RPC queued up at a time, so put it on the list with a timeout of NLM_NEVER before doing the RPC call. If the RPC call submission fails, we requeue it with a short timeout. If it works, then nlmsvc_grant_callback will end up requeueing it with a shorter timeout after it completes.

2008-02-10NLM: have server-side RPC clients default to soft RPC tasksJeff Layton
Now that it no longer does an RPC ping, lockd always ends up queueing an RPC task for the GRANT_MSG callback. But, it also requeues the block for later attempts. Since these are hard RPC tasks, if the client we're calling back goes unresponsive the GRANT_MSG callbacks can stack up in the RPC queue. Fix this by making server-side RPC clients default to soft RPC tasks. lockd requeues the block anyway, so this should be OK. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: J.

2008-02-10NLM: set RPC_CLNT_CREATE_NOPING for NLM RPC clientsJeff Layton
It's currently possible for an unresponsive NLM client to completely lock up a server's lockd. The scenario is something like this: 1) client1 (or a process on the server) takes a lock on a file 2) client2 tries to take a blocking lock on the same file and awaits the callback 3) client2 goes unresponsive (plug pulled, network partition, etc) 4) client1 releases the lock ...at that point the server's lockd will try to queue up a GRANT_MSG callback for client2, but first it requeues the block with a timeout of 30s. nlm_async_call will attempt to bind the RPC client to client2 and will call rpc_ping. rpc_ping entails a sync RPC call and if client2 is unresponsive it will take around 60s for that to time out. Once it times out, it's already time to retry the block and the whole process repeats. Once in this situation, nlmsvc_retry_blocked will never return until the host starts responding again. lockd won't service new calls. Fix this by skipping the RPC ping on NLM RPC clients. This makes nlm_async_call return quickly when called. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@citi.umich.edu>
2008-02-01NLM: tear down RPC clients in nlm_shutdown_hostsJeff Layton
It's possible for a RPC to outlive the lockd daemon that created it, so we need to make sure that all RPC's are killed when lockd is coming down. When nlm_shutdown_hosts is called, kill off all RPC tasks associated with the host. Since we need to wait until they have all gone away, we might as well just shut down the RPC client altogether.

2008-02-01knfsd: Support adding transports by writing portlist fileTom Tucker
Update the write handler for the portlist file to allow creating new listening endpoints on a transport. The general form of the string is: <transport_name><space><port number> For example: echo "tcp 2049" > /proc/fs/nfsd/portlist This is intended to support the creation of a listening endpoint for RDMA transports without adding #ifdef code to the nfssvc.c file. Transports can also be removed as follows: '-'<transport_name><space><port number> For example: echo "-tcp 2049" > /proc/fs/nfsd/portlist Attempting to add a listener with an invalid transport string results in EPROTONOSUPPORT and a perror string of "Protocol not supported". Attempting to remove an non-existent listener (.e.g. bad proto or port) results in ENOTCONN and a perror string of "Transport endpoint is not connected" Signed-off-by: Tom Tucker <tom@opengridcomputing.com> Acked-by: Neil Brown <neilb@suse.de> Reviewed-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> Reviewed-by: Greg Banks <gnb@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: J.

2008-02-01svc: Add svc API that queries for a transport instanceTom Tucker
Add a new svc function that allows a service to query whether a transport instance has already been created. This is used in lockd to determine whether or not a transport needs to be created when a lockd instance is brought up. Specifying 0 for the address family or port is effectively a wild-card, and will result in matching the first transport in the service's list that has a matching class name.

2008-02-01svc: Make close transport independentTom Tucker
Move sk_list and sk_ready to svc_xprt. This involves close because these lists are walked by svcs when closing all their transports. So I combined the moving of these lists to svc_xprt with making close transport independent. The svc_force_sock_close has been changed to svc_close_all and takes a list as an argument. This removes some svc internals knowledge from the svcs. This code races with module removal and transport addition. Thanks to Simon Holm Thøgersen for a compile fix.

2008-02-01NLM: Fix sign of length of NLM variable length stringsChuck Lever
According to The Open Group's NLM specification, NLM callers are variable length strings. XDR variable length strings use an unsigned 32 bit length. And internally, negative string lengths are not meaningful for the Linux NLM implementation. Clean up: Make nlm_lock.len and nlm_reboot.len unsigned integers.

2008-01-30NLM/NFS: Use cached nlm_host when calling nlmclnt_proc()Chuck Lever
Now that each NFS mount point caches its own nlm_host structure, it can be passed to nlmclnt_proc() for each lock request. By pinning an nlm_host for each mount point, we trade the overhead of looking up or creating a fresh nlm_host struct during every NLM procedure call for a little extra memory. We also restrict the nlmclnt_proc symbol to limit the use of this call to in-tree modules. Note that nlm_lookup_host() (just removed from the client's per-request NLM processing) could also trigger an nlm_host garbage collection. Now client-side nlm_host garbage collection occurs only during NFS mount processing. Since the NFS client now holds a reference on these nlm_host structures, they wouldn't have been affected by garbage collection anyway. Given that nlm_lookup_host() reorders the global nlm_host chain after every successful lookup, and that a garbage collection could be triggered during the call, we've removed a significant amount of per-NLM-request CPU processing overhead. Sidebar: there are only a few remaining references to the internals of NFS inodes in the client-side NLM code. The only references I found are related to extracting or comparing the inode's file handle via NFS_FH(). One is in nlmclnt_grant(); the other is in nlmclnt_setlockargs().

2008-01-30NLM: Introduce external nlm_host set-up and tear-down functionsChuck Lever
We would like to remove the per-lock-operation nlm_lookup_host() call from nlmclnt_proc(). The new architecture pins an nlm_host structure to each NFS client superblock that has the "lock" mount option set. The NFS client passes in the pinned nlm_host structure during each call to nlmclnt_proc(). NFS client unmount processing "puts" the nlm_host so it can be garbage- collected later. This patch introduces externally callable NLM functions that handle mount-time nlm_host set up and tear-down.

2007-09-26NLM: Fix a circular lock dependency in lockdTrond Myklebust
The problem is that the garbage collector for the 'host' structures nlm_gc_hosts(), holds nlm_host_mutex while calling down to nlmsvc_mark_resources, which, eventually takes the file->f_mutex. We cannot therefore call nlmsvc_lookup_host() from within nlmsvc_create_block, since the caller will already hold file->f_mutex, so the attempt to grab nlm_host_mutex may deadlock.

2007-07-17knfsd: lockd: nfsd4: use same grace period for lockd and nfsd4Marc Eshel
Both lockd and (in the nfsv4 case) nfsd enforce a "grace period" after reboot, during which clients may reclaim locks from the previous server instance, but may not acquire new locks. Currently the lockd and nfsd enforce grace periods of different lengths. This may cause problems when we reboot a server with both v2/v3 and v4 clients. For example, if the lockd grace period is shorter (as is likely the case), then a v3 client might acquire a new lock that conflicts with a lock already held (but not yet reclaimed) by a v4 client. This patch calculates a lease time that lockd and nfsd can both use. Signed-off-by: Marc Eshel <eshel@almaden.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: J.

2007-07-17Freezer: make kernel threads nonfreezable by defaultRafael J. Wysocki
Currently, the freezer treats all tasks as freezable, except for the kernel threads that explicitly set the PF_NOFREEZE flag for themselves. This approach is problematic, since it requires every kernel thread to either set PF_NOFREEZE explicitly, or call try_to_freeze(), even if it doesn't care for the freezing of tasks at all. It seems better to only require the kernel threads that want to or need to be frozen to use some freezer-related code and to remove any freezer-related code from the other (nonfreezable) kernel threads, which is done in this patch. The patch causes all kernel threads to be nonfreezable by default (ie. to have PF_NOFREEZE set by default) and introduces the set_freezable() function that should be called by the freezable kernel threads in order to unset PF_NOFREEZE. It also makes all of the currently freezable kernel threads call set_freezable(), so it shouldn't cause any (intentional) change of behaviour to appear. Additionally, it updates documentation to describe the freezing of tasks more accurately. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: build fixes] Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2007-05-06lockd: add code to handle deferred lock requestsMarc Eshel
Rewrite nlmsvc_lock() to use the asynchronous interface. As with testlock, we answer nlm requests in nlmsvc_lock by first looking up the block and then using the results we find in the block if B_QUEUED is set, and calling vfs_lock_file() otherwise.

Normally we could skip ever having to allocate a block in the case where the client asks for a non-blocking lock, or asks for a blocking lock that succeeds immediately. However we're going to want to always look up a block first in order to check whether we're revisiting a deferred lock call, and to be prepared to handle the case where the filesystem returns -EINPROGRESS--in that case we want to make sure the lock we've given the filesystem is the one embedded in the block that we'll use to track the deferred request.

In the case where the block we find in the first step has B_QUEUED set, we bypass the vfs_test_lock entirely, instead using the block to decide how to respond: with nlm_lck_denied if B_TIMED_OUT is set. with nlm_granted if B_GOT_CALLBACK is set. by dropping if neither B_TIMED_OUT nor B_GOT_CALLBACK is set Signed-off-by: Marc Eshel <eshel@almaden.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: J.

2007-04-30SUNRPC: RPC buffer size estimates are too largeChuck Lever
The RPC buffer size estimation logic in net/sunrpc/clnt.c always significantly overestimates the requirements for the buffer size. A little instrumentation demonstrated that in fact rpc_malloc was never allocating the buffer from the mempool, but almost always called kmalloc. To compute the size of the RPC buffer more precisely, split p_bufsiz into two fields; one for the argument size, and one for the result size. Then, compute the sum of the exact call and reply header sizes, and split the RPC buffer precisely between the two. That should keep almost all RPC buffers within the 2KiB buffer mempool limit. And, we can finally be rid of RPC_SLACK_SPACE! Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

The semantic effect of insert_at_head is that it would allow new registered sysctl entries to override existing sysctl entries of the same name.

2007-02-14[PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.hTim Schmielau
After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes. There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need anything defined in there. Presumably these includes were once needed for macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the course of cleaning it up. To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble. Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha, arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig, allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all configs in arch/arm/configs on arm. I also checked that no new warnings were introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted by unnecessarily included header files).

2007-02-12[PATCH] knfsd: SUNRPC: Provide room in svc_rqst for larger addressesChuck Lever
Expand the rq_addr field to allow it to contain larger addresses. Specifically, we replace a 'sockaddr_in' with a 'sockaddr_storage', then everywhere the 'sockaddr_in' was referenced, we use instead an accessor function (svc_addr_in) which safely casts the _storage to _in.
