2008-10-22NFSD: Fix BUG during NFSD shutdown processingChuck Lever
The Linux NFS server can be started via a user-space write to /proc/fs/nfs/threads or to /proc/fs/nfs/portlist. In the first case, all default listeners are started (both UDP and TCP). In the second, a listener is started only for one specified transport. The NFS server has to make sure lockd stays up until the last listener transport goes away. To support both start-up interfaces, it should do one lockd_up() for each NFSD listener. The nfsd_init_socks() function used to do one lockd_up() call for each svc_create_xprt(). Recently commit 26a414092353590ceaa5955bcb53f863d6ea7549 mistakenly changed nfsd_init_socks() to do only one lockd_up() call even though it still does two svc_create_xprt() calls. The end result is a lockd_down() BUG during NFSD shutdown processing because nfsd_last_threads() does a lockd_down() call for each entry on the sv_permsocks list, but the start-up code doesn't do a matching number of lockd_up() calls. Add a second lockd_up() in nfsd_init_socks() to make sure the number of lockd_up() calls matches the number of entries on the NFS servers's sv_permsocks list.

2008-10-04NLM: Always start both UDP and TCP listenersChuck Lever
Commit 24e36663, which first appeared in 2.6.19, changed lockd so that the client side starts a UDP listener only if there is a UDP NFSv2/v3 mount. Its description notes: This... means that lockd will *not* listen on UDP if the only mounts are TCP mount (and nfsd hasn't started). The latter is the only one that concerns me at all - I don't know if this might be a problem with some servers. Unfortunately it is a problem for Linux itself. The rpc.statd daemon on Linux uses UDP for contacting the local lockd, no matter which protocol is used for NFS mounts. Without a local lockd UDP listener, NFSv2/v3 lock recovery from Linux NFS clients always fails. Revert parts of commit 24e36663 so lockd_up() always starts both listeners.

2008-10-03lockd: Remove unused fields in the nlm_reboot structureChuck Lever
The nlm_reboot structure is used to store information provided by the NSM_NOTIFY procedure. This procedure is not specified by the NLM or NSM protocols, other than to say that the procedure can be used to transmit information private to a particular NLM/NSM implementation. For Linux, the callback arguments include the name of the monitored host, the new NSM state of the host, and a 16-byte private opaque. As a clean up, remove the unused fields and the server-side XDR logic that decodes them. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@citi.umich.edu>
2008-10-03lockd: Add helper to sanity check incoming NOTIFY requestsChuck Lever
lockd accepts SM_NOTIFY calls only from a privileged process on the local system. If lockd uses an AF_INET6 listener, the sender's address (ie the local rpc.statd) will be the IPv6 loopback address, not the IPv4 loopback address. Make sure the privilege test in nlmsvc_proc_sm_notify() and nlm4svc_proc_sm_notify() works for both AF_INET and AF_INET6 family addresses by refactoring the test into a helper and adding support for IPv6 addresses.

2008-10-03lockd: reject reclaims outside the grace periodJ. Bruce Fields
The current lockd does not reject reclaims that arrive outside of the grace period. Accepting a reclaim means promising to the client that no conflicting locks were granted since last it held the lock. We can meet that promise if we assume the only lockers are nfs clients, and that they are sufficiently well-behaved to reclaim only locks that they held before, and that only reclaim locks have been permitted so far. Once we leave the grace period (and start permitting non-reclaims), we can no longer keep that promise. So we must start rejecting reclaims at that point. Signed-off-by: J.

2008-10-03nfsd: common grace period controlJ. Bruce Fields
Rewrite grace period code to unify management of grace period across lockd and nfsd. The current code has lockd and nfsd cooperate to compute a grace period which is satisfactory to them both, and then individually enforce it. This creates a slight race condition, since the enforcement is not coordinated. It's also more complicated than necessary. Here instead we have lockd and nfsd each inform common code when they enter the grace period, and when they're ready to leave the grace period, and allow normal locking only after both of them are ready to leave. We also expect the locks_start_grace()/locks_end_grace() interface here to be simpler to build on for future cluster/high-availability work, which may require (for example) putting individual filesystems into grace, or enforcing grace periods across multiple cluster nodes.

2008-09-29nfsd: use nfs client rpc callback programBenny Halevy
since commit ff7d9756b501744540be65e172d27ee321d86103 "nfsd: use static memory for callback program and stats" do_probe_callback uses a static callback program (NFS4_CALLBACK) rather than the one set in clp->cl_callback.cb_prog as passed in by the client in setclientid (4.0) or create_session (4.1).

2008-09-29nfsd: do_probe_callback should not clear rpc statsBenny Halevy
Now that cb_stats are static (since commit ff7d9756b501744540be65e172d27ee321d86103) there's no need to clear them. Initially I thought it might make sense to do that every callback probing but since the stats are per-program and they are shared between possibly several client callback instances, zeroing them out seems like the wrong thing to do. Note that that commit also introduced a bug since stats.program is also being cleared in the process and it is not restored after the memset as it used to be.

2008-09-29SUNRPC: Support IPv6 when registering kernel RPC servicesChuck Lever
In order to advertise NFS-related services on IPv6 interfaces via rpcbind, the kernel RPC server implementation must use rpcb_v4_register() instead of rpcb_register(). A new kernel build option allows distributions to use the legacy v2 call until they integrate an appropriate user-space rpcbind daemon that can support IPv6 RPC services. I tried adding some automatic logic to fall back if registering with a v4 protocol request failed, but there are too many corner cases. So I just made it a compile-time switch that distributions can throw when they've replaced portmapper with rpcbind. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: J.

2008-09-29lockd: don't depend on lockd main loop to end graceJ. Bruce Fields
End lockd's grace period using schedule_delayed_work() instead of a check on every pass through the main loop. After a later patch, we'll depend on lockd to end its grace period even if it's not currently handling requests; so it shouldn't depend on being woken up from the main loop to do so. Also, Nakano Hiroaki (who independently produced a similar patch) noticed that the current behavior is buggy in the face of jiffies wraparound: "lockd uses time_before() to determine whether the grace period has expired. This would seem to be enough to avoid timer wrap-around issues, but, unfortunately, that is not the case. The time_* family of comparison functions can be safely used to compare jiffies relatively close in time, but they stop working after approximately LONG_MAX/2 ticks. nfsd can suffer this problem because the time_before() comparison in lockd() is not performed until the first request comes in, which means that if there is no lockd traffic for more than LONG_MAX/2 ticks we are screwed. "The implication of this is that once time_before() starts misbehaving any attempt from a NFS client to execute fcntl() will be received with a NLM_LCK_DENIED_GRACE_PERIOD message for 25 days (assuming HZ=1000). In other words, the 50 seconds grace period could turn into a grace period of 50 days or more. "Note: This bug was analyzed independently by Oda-san <oda@valinux.co.jp> and myself." Signed-off-by: J.

2008-09-29locks: allow lockd to process blocked locks during grace periodJ. Bruce Fields
The check here is currently harmless but unnecessary, since, as the comment notes, there aren't any blocked-lock callbacks to process during the grace period anyway. And eventually we want to allow multiple grace periods that come and go for different filesystems over the course of the lifetime of lockd, at which point this check is just going to get in the way.

2008-09-29knfsd: allocate readahead cache in individual chunksJeff Layton
I had a report from someone building a large NFS server that they were unable to start more than 585 nfsd threads. It was reported against an older kernel using the slab allocator, and I tracked it down to the large allocation in nfsd_racache_init failing. It appears that the slub allocator handles large allocations better, but large contiguous allocations can often be problematic. There doesn't seem to be any reason that the racache has to be allocated as a single large chunk. This patch breaks this up so that the racache is built up from separate allocations.

2008-09-29nfsd: permit unauthenticated stat of export rootJ. Bruce Fields
RFC 2623 section 2.3.2 permits the server to bypass gss authentication checks for certain operations that a client may perform when mounting. In the case of a client that doesn't have some form of credentials available to it on boot, this allows it to perform the mount unattended. (Presumably real file access won't be needed until a user with credentials logs in.) Being slightly more lenient allows lots of old clients to access krb5-only exports, with the only loss being a small amount of information leaked about the root directory of the export. This affects only v2 and v3; v4 still requires authentication for all access.

When unreserving space with boundaries that are not block aligned we round up the start and round down the end boundaries and then use this function, xfs_zero_remaining_bytes(), to zero the parts of the blocks that got dropped during the rounding. The problem is we don't consider if these blocks are beyond eof. Worse still is if we encounter delayed allocations beyond eof we will try to use the magic delayed allocation block number as a real block number.

If we call xfs_lock_two_inodes() to grab both the iolock and the ilock, then drop the ilocks on both inodes, then grab them again (as xfs_swap_extents() does) then lockdep will report a locking order problem. This is a false positive. To avoid this, disallow xfs_lock_two_inodes() fom locking both inode locks at once - force calers to make two separate calls.

2008-09-17[XFS] Prevent direct I/O from mapping extents beyond eofLachlan McIlroy
With the help from some tracing I found that we try to map extents beyond eof when doing a direct I/O read. It appears that the way to inform the generic direct I/O path (ie do_direct_IO()) that we have breached eof is to return an unmapped buffer from xfs_get_blocks_direct(). This will cause do_direct_IO() to jump to the hole handling code where is will check for eof and then abort. This problem was found because a direct I/O read was trying to map beyond eof and was encountering delayed allocations. The delayed allocations beyond eof are speculative allocations and they didn't get converted when the direct I/O flushed the file because there was only enough space in the current AG to convert and write out the dirty pages within eof. Note that xfs_iomap_write_allocate() wont necessarily convert all the delayed allocation passed to it - it will return after allocating the first extent - so if the delayed allocation extends beyond eof then it will stay that way.

Until that is implemented we return success for every remount request, and silently ignore all options that we can't actually change.

2008-09-17[XFS] Move memory allocations for log tracing out of the critical pathLachlan McIlroy
Memory allocations for log->l_grant_trace and iclog->ic_trace are done on demand when the first event is logged. In xlog_state_get_iclog_space() we call xlog_trace_iclog() under a spinlock and allocating memory here can cause us to sleep with a spinlock held and deadlock the system. For the log grant tracing we use KM_NOSLEEP but that means we can lose trace entries. Since there is no locking to serialize the log grant tracing we could race and have multiple allocations and leak memory. So move the allocations to where we initialize the log/iclog structures. Use KM_NOFS to avoid recursing into the filesystem and drop log->l_trace since it's not even used.

It is better for the kernel to warn and to proceed with the mount.

2008-09-13mm: ifdef Quicklists in /proc/meminfoHugh Dickins
A "Quicklists: 0 kB" line has just started appearing in /proc/meminfo, but most architectures (including x86) don't have them configured, so #ifdef it, like the highmem lines. And those architectures which do have quicklists configured are using them for page tables: so let's place it next to PageTables.
