2006-09-22NFS: Add an ACCESS cache memory shrinkerTrond Myklebust
A pinned inode may in theory end up filling memory with cached ACCESS calls. This patch ensures that the VM may shrink away the cache in these particular cases. The shrinker works by iterating through the list of inodes on the global nfs_access_lru_list, and removing the least recently used access cache entry until it is done (or until the entire cache is empty).

2006-09-22NFS: Add a new ACCESS rpc call cache to the linux nfs clientTrond Myklebust
The current access cache only allows one entry at a time to be cached for each inode. Add a per-inode red-black tree in order to allow more than one to be cached at a time. Should significantly cut down the time spent in path traversal for shared directories such as ${PATH}, /usr/share, etc. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2006-07-05NFS: Optimise away an excessive GETATTR call when a file is symlinkedTrond Myklebust
In the case when compiling via a symlink tree, we want to ensure that the close-to-open GETATTR call is applied only to the final file, and not to the symlink. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

2006-06-09NFS: Separate metadata and page cache revalidation mechanismsTrond Myklebust
Separate out the function of revalidating the inode metadata, and revalidating the mapping. The former may be called by lookup(), and only really needs to check that permissions, ctime, etc haven't changed whereas the latter needs only done when we want to read data from the page cache, and may need to sync and then invalidate the mapping.

2006-03-28[PATCH] Make most file operations structs in fs/ constArjan van de Ven
This is a conversion to make the various file_operations structs in fs/ const. Basically a regexp job, with a few manual fixups The goal is both to increase correctness (harder to accidentally write to shared datastructures) and reducing the false sharing of cachelines with things that get dirty in .data (while .rodata is nicely read only and thus cache clean) Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2006-03-20NFS: directory trace messagesChuck Lever
Reuse NFSDBG_DIRCACHE and NFSDBG_LOOKUPCACHE to provide additional diagnostic messages that trace the operation of the NFS client's directory behavior. A few new messages are now generated when NFSDBG_VFS is active, as well, to trace normal VFS activity. This compromise provides better trace debugging for those who use pre-built kernels, without adding a lot of extra noise to the standard debug settings. Test-plan: Enable NFS trace debugging with flags 1, 2, or 4. You should be able to see different types of trace messages with each flag setting.

2006-03-20NFS: add I/O performance countersChuck Lever
Invoke the byte and event counter macros where we want to count bytes and events. Clean-up: fix a possible NULL dereference in nfs_lock, and simplify nfs_file_open. Test-plan: fsx and iozone on UP and SMP systems, with and without pre-emption. Watch for memory overwrite bugs, and performance loss (significantly more CPU required per op).

2005-10-27NFS: nfs_lookup doesn't need to revalidate the parent directory's inodeChuck Lever
nfs_lookup() used to consult a lookup cache before trying an actual wire lookup operation. The lookup cache would be invalid, of course, if the parent directory's mtime had changed, so nfs_lookup performed an inode revalidation on the parent. Since nfs_lookup() doesn't use a cache anymore, the revalidation is no longer necessary. There are cases where it will generate a lot of unnecessary GETATTR traffic. See http://bugzilla.linux-nfs.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9 Test-plan: Use lndir and "rm -rf" and watch for excess GETATTR traffic or application level errors.

2005-09-23NFS: Drop inode after renameTrond Myklebust
When doing a rename on top of an existing file that is not in use, the inode of the overwritten file will remain in the icache. The fix is to decrement i_nlink of the overwritten inode, like we do for unlink, rmdir etc already. Problem diagnosed by Olaf Kirch. This patch is a slight variation on his fix.

2005-08-18[PATCH] NFS: Introduce the use of inode->i_lock to protect fields in nfsiChuck Lever
Down the road we want to eliminate the use of the global kernel lock entirely from the NFS client. To do this, we need to protect the fields in the nfs_inode structure adequately. Start by serializing updates to the "cache_validity" field. Note this change addresses an SMP hang found by njw@osdl.org, where processes deadlock because nfs_end_data_update and nfs_revalidate_mapping update the "cache_validity" field without proper serialization. Test plan: Millions of fsx ops on SMP clients. Run Nick Wilson's breaknfs program on large SMP clients.

2005-08-18[PATCH] NFS: use atomic bitops to manipulate flags in nfsi->flagsChuck Lever
Introduce atomic bitops to manipulate the bits in the nfs_inode structure's "flags" field. Using bitops means we can use a generic wait_on_bit call instead of an ad hoc locking scheme in fs/nfs/inode.c, so we can remove the "nfs_i_wait" field from nfs_inode at the same time. The other new flags field will continue to use bitmask and logic AND and OR. This permits several flags to be set at the same time efficiently. The following patch adds a spin lock to protect these flags, and this spin lock will later cover other fields in the nfs_inode structure, amortizing the cost of using this type of serialization. Test plan: Millions of fsx ops on SMP clients.

2005-08-18[PATCH] NFS: split nfsi->flags into two fieldsChuck Lever

2005-06-22[PATCH] NFS: Hide NFS server-generated readdir cookies from userlandOlivier Galibert
NFSv3 currently returns the unsigned 64-bit cookie directly to userspace. The following patch causes the kernel to generate loff_t offsets for the benefit of userland. The current server-generated READDIR cookie is cached in the nfs_open_context instead of in filp->f_pos, so we still end up work correctly under directory insertions/deletion.

2005-06-22[PATCH] NFS: Add support for NFSv3 ACLsAndreas Gruenbacher
This adds acl support fo nfs clients via the NFSACL protocol extension, by implementing the getxattr, listxattr, setxattr, and removexattr iops for the system.posix_acl_access and system.posix_acl_default attributes. This patch implements a dumb version that uses no caching (and thus adds some overhead). (Another patch in this patchset adds caching as well.)

2005-06-07[PATCH] NFS: Fix lookup intent handlingTrond Myklebust
We should never apply a lookup intent to anything other than the last path component in an open(), create() or access() call. Introduce the helper nfs_lookup_check_intent() which always returns zero if LOOKUP_CONTINUE or LOOKUP_PARENT are set, and returns the intent flags if we're on the last component of the lookup. By doing so, we fix a bug in open(O_EXCL), where we may end up optimizing away a real lookup of the parent directory.

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
