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.

2007-07-17mm: clean up and kernelify shrinker registrationRusty Russell
I can never remember what the function to register to receive VM pressure is called. I have to trace down from __alloc_pages() to find it. It's called "set_shrinker()", and it needs Your Help. 1) Don't hide struct shrinker. It contains no magic. 2) Don't allocate "struct shrinker". It's not helpful. 3) Call them "register_shrinker" and "unregister_shrinker". 4) Call the function "shrink" not "shrinker". 5) Reduce the 17 lines of waffly comments to 13, but document it properly.

2007-07-10NFSv4: Make sure unlock is really an unlock when cancelling a lockFrank Filz
I ran into a curious issue when a lock is being canceled. The cancellation results in a lock request to the vfs layer instead of an unlock request. This is particularly insidious when the process that owns the lock is exiting. In that case, sometimes the erroneous lock is applied AFTER the process has entered zombie state, preventing the lock from ever being released. Eventually other processes block on the lock causing a slow degredation of the system. In the 2.6.16 kernel this was investigated on, the problem is compounded by the fact that the cl_sem is held while blocking on the vfs lock, which results in most processes accessing the nfs file system in question hanging. In more detail, here is how the situation occurs: first _nfs4_do_setlk(): static int _nfs4_do_setlk(struct nfs4_state *state, int cmd, struct file_lock *fl, int reclaim) ... ret = nfs4_wait_for_completion_rpc_task(task); if (ret == 0) { ... } else data->cancelled = 1; then nfs4_lock_release(): static void nfs4_lock_release(void *calldata) ... if (data->cancelled != 0) { struct rpc_task *task; task = nfs4_do_unlck(&data->fl, data->ctx, data->lsp, data->arg.lock_seqid); The problem is the same file_lock that was passed in to _nfs4_do_setlk() gets passed to nfs4_do_unlck() from nfs4_lock_release(). So the type is still F_RDLCK or FWRLCK, not F_UNLCK. At some point, when cancelling the lock, the type needs to be changed to F_UNLCK. It seemed easiest to do that in nfs4_do_unlck(), but it could be done in nfs4_lock_release(). The concern I had with doing it there was if something still needed the original file_lock, though it turns out the original file_lock still needs to be modified by nfs4_do_unlck() because nfs4_do_unlck() uses the original file_lock to pass to the vfs layer, and a copy of the original file_lock for the RPC request. It seems like the simplest solution is to force all situations where nfs4_do_unlck() is being used to result in an unlock, so with that in mind, I made the following change: Signed-off-by: Frank Filz <ffilzlnx@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2007-07-10NFSv4: Make the NFS state model work with the nosharedcache mount optionTrond Myklebust
Consider the case where the user has mounted the remote filesystem server:/foo on the two local directories /bar and /baz using the nosharedcache mount option. The files /bar/file and /baz/file are represented by different inodes in the local namespace, but refer to the same file /foo/file on the server. Consider the case where a process opens both /bar/file and /baz/file, then closes /bar/file: because the nfs4_state is not shared between /bar/file and /baz/file, the kernel will see that the nfs4_state for /bar/file is no longer referenced, so it will send off a CLOSE rpc call. Unless the open_owners differ, then that CLOSE call will invalidate the open state on /baz/file too. Conclusion: we cannot share open state owners between two different non-shared mount instances of the same filesystem. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2007-07-10NFS: Error when mounting the same filesystem with different optionsTrond Myklebust
Unless the user sets the NFS_MOUNT_NOSHAREDCACHE mount flag, we should return EBUSY if the filesystem is already mounted on a superblock that has set conflicting mount options. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2007-07-10NFS: Add the mount option "nosharecache"Trond Myklebust
Prior to David Howell's mount changes in 2.6.18, users who mounted different directories which happened to be from the same filesystem on the server would get different super blocks, and hence could choose different mount options. As long as there were no hard linked files that crossed from one subtree to another, this was quite safe. Post the changes, if the two directories are on the same filesystem (have the same 'fsid'), they will share the same super block, and hence the same mount options. Add a flag to allow users to elect not to share the NFS super block with another mount point, even if the fsids are the same. This will allow users to set different mount options for the two different super blocks, as was previously possible. It is still up to the user to ensure that there are no cache coherency issues when doing this, however the default behaviour will be to share super blocks whenever two paths result in the same fsid.
