2005-11-15[PATCH] knfsd: make sure nfsd doesn't hog a cpu foreverNeilBrown
Being kernel-threads, nfsd servers don't get pre-empted (depending on CONFIG). If there is a steady stream of NFS requests that can be served from cache, an nfsd thread may hold on to a cpu indefinitely, which isn't very friendly. So it is good to have a cond_resched in there (just before looking for a new request to serve), to make sure we play nice.

2005-11-10[NET]: Detect hardware rx checksum faults correctlyHerbert Xu
Here is the patch that introduces the generic skb_checksum_complete which also checks for hardware RX checksum faults. If that happens, it'll call netdev_rx_csum_fault which currently prints out a stack trace with the device name. In future it can turn off RX checksum. I've converted every spot under net/ that does RX checksum checks to use skb_checksum_complete or __skb_checksum_complete with the exceptions of: * Those places where checksums are done bit by bit. These will call netdev_rx_csum_fault directly. * The following have not been completely checked/converted: ipmr ip_vs netfilter dccp This patch is based on patches and suggestions from Stephen Hemminger and David S. Miller. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2005-11-09[PATCH] SUNRPC: don't reencode when looping in call transmit.Trond Myklebust
If the call to xprt_transmit() fails due to socket buffer space exhaustion, we do not need to re-encode the RPC message when we loop back through call_transmit. Re-encoding can actually end up triggering the WARN_ON() in call_decode() if we re-encode something like a read() request and auth->au_rslack has changed. It can also cause us to increment the RPCSEC_GSS sequence number beyond the limits of the allowed window.

2005-11-09[PATCH] sanitize lookup_hash prototypeChristoph Hellwig
->permission and ->lookup have a struct nameidata * argument these days to pass down lookup intents. Unfortunately some callers of lookup_hash don't actually pass this one down. For lookup_one_len() we don't have a struct nameidata to pass down, but as this function is a library function only used by filesystem code this is an acceptable limitation. All other callers should pass down the nameidata, so this patch changes the lookup_hash interface to only take a struct nameidata argument and derives the other two arguments to __lookup_hash from it. All callers already have the nameidata argument available so this is not a problem. At the same time I'd like to deprecate the lookup_hash interface as there are better exported interfaces for filesystem usage. Before it can actually be removed I need to fix up rpc_pipefs.

Various xdr encode routines use au_rslack to guess where the reply argument will end up, so we can set up the xdr_buf to recieve data into the right place for zero copy. Currently we calculate the au_rslack estimate when we check the verifier. Normally this only depends on the verifier size.

2005-09-23[PATCH] RPC,NFS: new rpc_pipefs patchChristoph Hellwig
Currently rpc_mkdir/rpc_rmdir and rpc_mkpipe/mk_unlink have an API that's a little unfortunate. They take a path relative to the rpc_pipefs root and thus need to perform a full lookup. If you look at debugfs or usbfs they always store the dentry for directories they created and thus can pass in a dentry + single pathname component pair into their equivalents of the above functions. And in fact rpc_pipefs actually stores a dentry for all but one component so this change not only simplifies the core rpc_pipe code but also the callers. Unfortuntately this code path is only used by the NFS4 idmapper and AUTH_GSSAPI for which I don't have a test enviroment. Could someone give it a spin?

Implement a best practice: if the remote end drops our connection, try to reconnect using the same port number. This is important because the NFS server's Duplicate Reply Cache often hashes on the source port number. If the client reuses the port number when it reconnects, the server's DRC will be more effective. Based on suggestions by Mike Eisler, Olaf Kirch, and Alexey Kuznetsky.

The next method we abstract is the one that releases a transport, allowing another task to have access to the transport.

2005-09-23[PATCH] RPC: expose API for serializing access to RPC transportsChuck Lever
The next several patches introduce an API that allows transports to choose whether the RPC client provides congestion control or whether the transport itself provides it. The first method we abstract is the one that serializes access to the RPC transport to prevent the bytes from different requests from mingling together. This method provides proper request serialization and the opportunity to prevent new requests from being started because the transport is congested. The normal situation is for the transport to handle congestion control itself. Although NFS over UDP was first, it has been recognized after years of experience that having the transport provide congestion control is much better than doing it in the RPC client. Thus TCP, and probably every future transport implementation, will use the default method, xprt_lock_write, provided in xprt.c, which does not provide any kind of congestion control. UDP can continue using the xprt.c-provided Van Jacobson congestion avoidance implementation. Test-plan: Use WAN simulation to cause sporadic bursty packet loss.
