2009-12-10NFS: Fix nfs_migrate_page()Trond Myklebust
The call to migrate_page() will cause the page->private field to be cleared. Also fix up the locking around the page->private transfer, so that we ensure that calls to nfs_page_find_request() don't end up racing. Finally, fix up a double free bug: nfs_unlock_request() already calls nfs_release_request() for us...

2009-12-10vfs: Implement proper O_SYNC semanticsChristoph Hellwig
While Linux provided an O_SYNC flag basically since day 1, it took until Linux 2.4.0-test12pre2 to actually get it implemented for filesystems, since that day we had generic_osync_around with only minor changes and the great "For now, when the user asks for O_SYNC, we'll actually give O_DSYNC" comment. This patch intends to actually give us real O_SYNC semantics in addition to the O_DSYNC semantics. After Jan's O_SYNC patches which are required before this patch it's actually surprisingly simple, we just need to figure out when to set the datasync flag to vfs_fsync_range and when not. This patch renames the existing O_SYNC flag to O_DSYNC while keeping it's numerical value to keep binary compatibility, and adds a new real O_SYNC flag. To guarantee backwards compatiblity it is defined as expanding to both the O_DSYNC and the new additional binary flag (__O_SYNC) to make sure we are backwards-compatible when compiled against the new headers. This also means that all places that don't care about the differences can just check O_DSYNC and get the right behaviour for O_SYNC, too - only places that actuall care need to check __O_SYNC in addition. Drivers and network filesystems have been updated in a fail safe way to always do the full sync magic if O_DSYNC is set. The few places setting O_SYNC for lower layers are kept that way for now to stay failsafe. We enforce that O_DSYNC is set when __O_SYNC is set early in the open path to make sure we always get these sane options. Note that parisc really screwed up their headers as they already define a O_DSYNC that has always been a no-op. We try to repair it by using it for the new O_DSYNC and redefinining O_SYNC to send both the traditional O_SYNC numerical value _and_ the O_DSYNC one.

2009-12-08nfs41: Invoke RECLAIM_COMPLETE on all new client idsRicardo Labiaga
The NFSv4.1 spec indicates RECLAIM_COMPLETE is to be issued whenever a client establishes a new client id, not only after detecting the server has rebooted. Set the NFS4CLNT_RECLAIM_REBOOT bit after every new client id has been established. This enables us to issue RECLAIM_COMPLETE during the wrap up of the NFS4CLNT_RECLAIM_REBOOT state.

2009-12-08NFSv41: Fix a potential state leakage when restarting nfs4_close_prepareTrond Myklebust
Currently, if the call to nfs4_setup_sequence() in nfs4_close_prepare fails, any later retries will fail to launch an RPC call, due to the fact that the &state->flags will have been cleared. Ditto if nfs4_close_done() triggers a call to the NFSv4.1 version of nfs_restart_rpc(). We therefore move the actual clearing of the state->flags to nfs4_close_done(), when we know that the RPC call was successful. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

If CREATE_SESSION fails with NFS4ERR_STALE_CLIENTID, don't clear the NFS4CLNT_SESSION_DRAINING flag and don't wake RPCs waiting for the session to be reestablished. We don't have a session yet, so there is no reason to wake other RPCs. This avoids sending spurious compounds with bogus sequenceID during session and state recovery.

2009-12-05NFSv41: Fix nfs4_proc_create_sessionTrond Myklebust
We should not assume that nfs41_init_clientid() will always want to initialise the session. If it is being called due to a server reboot, then we just want to reset the session after re-establishing the clientid. Fix this by getting rid of the 'reset' parameter in nfs4_proc_create_session(), and instead relying on whether or not the session slot table pointer is non-NULL.

2009-12-05nfs41: Invoke RECLAIM_COMPLETERicardo Labiaga
This patch invokes RECLAIM_COMPLETE after the client is done reclaiming state. There are interpretations of the spec that suggest that RECLAIM_COMPLETE should also be issued after a new clientid has been obtained from the server and even if there is no state to reclaim. This tells the server that the client has no state to reclaim even if the client isn't aware the server may have rebooted.

2009-12-05nfs41: RECLAIM_COMPLETE functionalityRicardo Labiaga
Implements RECLAIM_COMPLETE as an asynchronous RPC. NFS4ERR_DELAY is retried, NFS4ERR_DEADSESSION invokes the error handling but does not result in a retry, since we don't want to have a lingering RECLAIM_COMPLETE call sent in the middle of a possible new state recovery cycle. If a session reset occurs, a new wave of reclaim operations will follow, containing their own RECLAIM_COMPLETE call. We don't want a retry to get on the way of recovery by incorrectly indicating to the server that we're done reclaiming state. A subsequent patch invokes the functionality.

2009-12-03NFS4ERR_FILE_OPEN handling in Linux/NFSNeilBrown
NFS4ERR_FILE_OPEN is return by the server when an operation cannot be performed because the file is currently open and local (to the server) semantics prohibit the operation while the file is open. A typical case is a RENAME operation on an MS-Windows platform, which prevents rename while the file is open. While it is possible that such a condition is transitory, it is also very possible that the file will be held open for an extended period of time thus preventing the operation. The current behaviour of Linux/NFS is to retry the operation indefinitely. This is not appropriate - we do not expect a rename to take an arbitrary amount of time to complete. Rather, and error should be returned. The most obvious error code would be EBUSY, which is a legal at least for 'rename' and 'unlink', and accurately captures the reason for the error. This patch allows a few retries until about 2 seconds have elapsed, then returns EBUSY. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
