2010-02-15NFS: Too many GETATTR and ACCESS calls after direct I/OChuck Lever
The cached read and write paths initialize fattr->time_start in their setup procedures. The value of fattr->time_start is propagated to read_cache_jiffies by nfs_update_inode(). Subsequent calls to nfs_attribute_timeout() will then use a good time stamp when computing the attribute cache timeout, and squelch unneeded GETATTR calls. Since the direct I/O paths erroneously leave the inode's fattr->time_start field set to zero, read_cache_jiffies for that inode is set to zero after any direct read or write operation. This triggers an otw GETATTR or ACCESS call to update the file's attribute and access caches properly, even when the NFS READ or WRITE replies have usable post-op attributes. Make sure the direct read and write setup code performs the same fattr initialization as the cached I/O paths to prevent unnecessary GETATTR calls. This was likely introduced by commit 0e574af1 in 2.6.15, which appears to add new nfs_fattr_init() call sites in the cached read and write paths, but not in the equivalent places in fs/nfs/direct.c. A subsequent commit in the same series, 33801147, introduces the fattr->time_start field. Interestingly, the direct write reschedule path already has a call to nfs_fattr_init() in the right place.

2009-10-23nfs: Panic when commit failsTerry Loftin
Actually pass the NFS_FILE_SYNC option to the server to avoid a Panic in nfs_direct_write_complete() when a commit fails. At the end of an nfs write, if the nfs commit fails, all the writes will be rescheduled. They are supposed to be rescheduled as NFS_FILE_SYNC writes, but the rpc_task structure is not completely intialized and so the option is not passed. When the rescheduled writes complete, the return indicates that they are NFS_UNSTABLE and we try to do another commit. This leads to a Panic because the commit data structure pointer was set to null in the initial (failed) commit attempt.

2009-08-12NFS: Fix an O_DIRECT Oops...Trond Myklebust
We can't call nfs_readdata_release()/nfs_writedata_release() without first initialising and referencing args.context. Doing so inside nfs_direct_read_schedule_segment()/nfs_direct_write_schedule_segment() causes an Oops. We should rather be calling nfs_readdata_free()/nfs_writedata_free() in those cases. Looking at the O_DIRECT code, the "struct nfs_direct_req" is already referencing the nfs_open_context for us. Since the readdata and writedata structures carry a reference to that, we can simplify things by getting rid of the extra nfs_open_context references, so that we can replace all instances of nfs_readdata_release()/nfs_writedata_release().

We want to ensure that rpc_call_ops that involve mntput() are run on nfsiod rather than on rpciod, so that they don't deadlock when the resulting umount calls rpc_shutdown_client().

2008-02-25NFS: Fix a deadlock with lazy umountTrond Myklebust
We can't allow rpc callback functions like task->tk_ops->rpc_call_prepare() and task->tk_ops->rpc_call_done() to call mntput() in any way, since that will cause a deadlock when the call to rpc_shutdown_client() attempts to wait on 'task' to complete. We can avoid the above deadlock by moving calls to mntput to task->tk_ops->rpc_release() callback, since at that time the task will be marked as completed, and so rpc_shutdown_client won't attempt to wait on it.

Commit eda3cef8dd2b83875affe82595db9d0c278879b2 ("NFS: Fix error handling in nfs_direct_write_result()") ensured that if a WRITE returns an error, then data->res.verf->committed is not tested (as it is not initialised). Then commit 60fa3f769f7651a60125a0f44e3ffe3246d7cf39 ("NFS: Fix two bugs in the O_DIRECT write code") inadvertently reverted this while fixing other problems.

This causes a page pointer to be written beyond the end of the pagevec in nfs_read_data (or nfs_write_data).
