2006-10-30[PATCH] sunrpc: fix refcounting problems in rpc serversNeil Brown
A recent patch fixed a problem which would occur when the refcount on an auth_domain reached zero. This problem has not been reported in practice despite existing in two major kernel releases because the refcount can never reach zero. This patch fixes the problems that stop the refcount reaching zero. 1/ We were adding to the refcount when inserting in the hash table, but only removing from the hashtable when the refcount reached zero. Obviously it never would. So don't count the implied reference of being in the hash table. 2/ There are two paths on which a socket can be destroyed. One called svcauth_unix_info_release(). The other didn't. So when the other was taken, we can lose a reference to an ip_map which in-turn holds a reference to an auth_domain So unify the exit paths into svc_sock_put. This highlights the fact that svc_delete_socket has slightly odd semantics - it does not drop a reference but probably should. Fixing this need a bit more thought and testing.

2006-10-20[PATCH] knfsd: fix race that can disable NFS serverNeilBrown
This patch is suitable for just about any 2.6 kernel. It should go in 2.6.19 and 2.6.18.2 and possible even the .17 and .16 stable series. This is a long standing bug that seems to have only recently become apparent, presumably due to increasing use of NFS over TCP - many distros seem to be making it the default. The SK_CONN bit gets set when a listening socket may be ready for an accept, just as SK_DATA is set when data may be available. It is entirely possible for svc_tcp_accept to be called with neither of these set. It doesn't happen often but there is a small race in svc_sock_enqueue as SK_CONN and SK_DATA are tested outside the spin_lock. They could be cleared immediately after the test and before the lock is gained. This normally shouldn't be a problem. The sockets are non-blocking so trying to read() or accept() when ther is nothing to do is not a problem. However: svc_tcp_recvfrom makes the decision "Should I accept() or should I read()" based on whether SK_CONN is set or not. This usually works but is not safe. The decision should be based on whether it is a TCP_LISTEN socket or a TCP_CONNECTED socket.

2006-10-06[PATCH] knfsd: tidy up up meaning of 'buffer size' in nfsd/sunrpcNeilBrown
There is some confusion about the meaning of 'bufsz' for a sunrpc server. In some cases it is the largest message that can be sent or received. In other cases it is the largest 'payload' that can be included in a NFS message. In either case, it is not possible for both the request and the reply to be this large. One of the request or reply may only be one page long, which fits nicely with NFS. So we remove 'bufsz' and replace it with two numbers: 'max_payload' and 'max_mesg'. Max_payload is the size that the server requests. It is used by the server to check the max size allowed on a particular connection: depending on the protocol a lower limit might be used. max_mesg is the largest single message that can be sent or received. It is calculated as the max_payload, rounded up to a multiple of PAGE_SIZE, and with PAGE_SIZE added to overhead. Only one of the request and reply may be this size. The other must be at most one page. Cc: Greg Banks <gnb@sgi.com> Cc: "J.

2006-10-04[PATCH] knfsd: knfsd: cache ipmap per TCP socketGreg Banks
Speed up high call-rate workloads by caching the struct ip_map for the peer on the connected struct svc_sock instead of looking it up in the ip_map cache hashtable on every call. This helps workloads using AUTH_SYS authentication over TCP. Testing was on a 4 CPU 4 NIC Altix using 4 IRIX clients, each with 16 synthetic client threads simulating an rsync (i.e. recursive directory listing) workload reading from an i386 RH9 install image (161480 regular files in 10841 directories) on the server. That tree is small enough to fill in the server's RAM so no disk traffic was involved. This setup gives a sustained call rate in excess of 60000 calls/sec before being CPU-bound on the server. Profiling showed strcmp(), called from ip_map_match(), was taking 4.8% of each CPU, and ip_map_lookup() was taking 2.9%. This patch drops both contribution into the profile noise. Note that the above result overstates this value of this patch for most workloads. The synthetic clients are all using separate IP addresses, so there are 64 entries in the ip_map cache hash. Because the kernel measured contained the bug fixed in commit commit 1f1e030bf75774b6a283518e1534d598e14147d4 and was running on 64bit little-endian machine, probably all of those 64 entries were on a single chain, thus increasing the cost of ip_map_lookup(). With a modern kernel you would need more clients to see the same amount of performance improvement. This patch has helped to scale knfsd to handle a deployment with 2000 NFS clients.

2006-10-04[PATCH] knfsd: Avoid excess stack usage in svc_tcp_recvfromNeilBrown
.. by allocating the array of 'kvec' in 'struct svc_rqst'. As we plan to increase RPCSVC_MAXPAGES from 8 upto 256, we can no longer allocate an array of this size on the stack. So we allocate it in 'struct svc_rqst'. However svc_rqst contains (indirectly) an array of the same type and size (actually several, but they are in a union). So rather than waste space, we move those arrays out of the separately allocated union and into svc_rqst to share with the kvec moved out of svc_tcp_recvfrom (various arrays are used at different times, so there is no conflict).

2006-10-04[PATCH] knfsd: Replace two page lists in struct svc_rqst with oneNeilBrown
We are planning to increase RPCSVC_MAXPAGES from about 8 to about 256. This means we need to be a bit careful about arrays of size RPCSVC_MAXPAGES. struct svc_rqst contains two such arrays. However the there are never more that RPCSVC_MAXPAGES pages in the two arrays together, so only one array is needed. The two arrays are for the pages holding the request, and the pages holding the reply. Instead of two arrays, we can simply keep an index into where the first reply page is. This patch also removes a number of small inline functions that probably server to obscure what is going on rather than clarify it, and opencode the needed functionality. Also remove the 'rq_restailpage' variable as it is *always* 0. i.e. if the response 'xdr' structure has a non-empty tail it is always in the same pages as the head. check counters are initilised and incr properly check for consistant usage of ++ etc maybe extra some inlines for common approach general review Signed-off-by: Neil Brown <neilb@suse.de> Cc: Magnus Maatta <novell@kiruna.se> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2006-10-04[PATCH] knfsd: call lockd_down when closing a socket via a write to ↵NeilBrown
nfsd/portlist The refcount that nfsd holds on lockd is based on the number of open sockets. So when we close a socket, we should decrement the ref (with lockd_down). Currently when a socket is closed via writing to the portlist file, that doesn't happen. So: make sure we get an error return if the socket that was requested does is not found, and call lockd_down if it was. Cc: "J.

2006-10-02[PATCH] knfsd: make rpc threads pools numa awareGreg Banks
Actually implement multiple pools. On NUMA machines, allocate a svc_pool per NUMA node; on SMP a svc_pool per CPU; otherwise a single global pool. Enqueue sockets on the svc_pool corresponding to the CPU on which the socket bh is run (i.e. the NIC interrupt CPU). Threads have their cpu mask set to limit them to the CPUs in the svc_pool that owns them. This is the patch that allows an Altix to scale NFS traffic linearly beyond 4 CPUs and 4 NICs.

2006-10-02[PATCH] knfsd: split svc_serv into poolsGreg Banks
Split out the list of idle threads and pending sockets from svc_serv into a new svc_pool structure, and allocate a fixed number (in this patch, 1) of pools per svc_serv. The new structure contains a lock which takes over several of the duties of svc_serv->sv_lock, which is now relegated to protecting only sv_tempsocks, sv_permsocks, and sv_tmpcnt in svc_serv. The point is to move the hottest fields out of svc_serv and into svc_pool, allowing a following patch to arrange for a svc_pool per NUMA node or per CPU. This is a major step towards making the NFS server NUMA-friendly.

2006-10-02[PATCH] knfsd: move tempsock aging to a timerGreg Banks
Following are 11 patches from Greg Banks which combine to make knfsd more Numa-aware. They reduce hitting on 'global' data structures, and create some data-structures that can be node-local. knfsd threads are bound to a particular node, and the thread to handle a new request is chosen from the threads that are attach to the node that received the interrupt. The distribution of threads across nodes can be controlled by a new file in the 'nfsd' filesystem, though the default approach of an even spread is probably fine for most sites. Some (old) numbers that show the efficacy of these patches: N == number of NICs == number of CPUs == nmber of clients. Number of NUMA nodes == N/2 N Throughput, MiB/s CPU usage, % (max=N*100) Before After Before After --- ------ ---- ----- ----- 4 312 435 350 228 6 500 656 501 418 8 562 804 690 589 This patch: Move the aging of RPC/TCP connection sockets from the main svc_recv() loop to a timer which uses a mark-and-sweep algorithm every 6 minutes. This reduces the amount of work that needs to be done in the main RPC loop and the length of time we need to hold the (effectively global) svc_serv->sv_lock.

This is not mandatory : a driver can still use a read/write structure if it needs to (and eventually a __read_mostly) I made a global stubstitute to change all existing occurences to make them const.
