2007-05-24NFS: Avoid a deadlock situation on writeTrond Myklebust
When processes are allowed to attempt to lock a non-contiguous range of nfs write requests, it is possible for generic_writepages to 'wrap round' the address space, and call writepage() on a request that is already locked by the same process. We avoid the deadlock by checking if the page index is contiguous with the list of nfs write requests that is already held in our nfs_pageio_descriptor prior to attempting to lock a new request.

2007-04-30NFS: Fix a race when doing NFS write coalescingTrond Myklebust
Currently we do write coalescing in a very inefficient manner: one pass in generic_writepages() in order to lock the pages for writing, then one pass in nfs_flush_mapping() and/or nfs_sync_mapping_wait() in order to gather the locked pages for coalescing into RPC requests of size "wsize". In fact, it turns out there is actually a deadlock possible here since we only start I/O on the second pass. If the user signals the process while we're in nfs_sync_mapping_wait(), for instance, then we may exit before starting I/O on all the requests that have been queued up.

2007-04-30NFS: Cleanup for nfs_readpages()Trond Myklebust
Do the coalescing of read requests into block sized requests at start of I/O as we scan through the pages instead of going through a second pass. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

2007-04-14NFS: Ensure PG_writeback is cleared when writeback failsTrond Myklebust
If the writebacks are cancelled via nfs_cancel_dirty_list, or due to the memory allocation failing in nfs_flush_one/nfs_flush_multi, then we must ensure that the PG_writeback flag is cleared. Also ensure that we actually own the PG_writeback flag whenever we schedule a new writeback by making nfs_set_page_writeback() return the value of test_set_page_writeback(). The PG_writeback page flag ends up replacing the functionality of the PG_FLUSHING nfs_page flag, so we rip that out too.

2006-12-06NFS: Make nfs_updatepage() mark the page as dirty.Trond Myklebust
This will ensure that we can call set_page_writeback() from within nfs_writepage(), which is always called with the page lock set. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2006-12-06NFS: Add nfs_set_page_dirty()Trond Myklebust
We will want to allow nfs_writepage() to distinguish between pages that have been marked as dirty by the VM, and those that have been marked as dirty by nfs_updatepage(). In the former case, the entire page will want to be written out, and so any requests that were pending need to be flushed out first. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

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!
