* [PATCH] knfsd: change nlm_file to use a hlistOlaf Kirch2006-10-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This changes struct nlm_file and the nlm_files hash table to use a hlist instead of the home-grown lists. This allows us to remove f_hash which was only used to find the right hash chain to delete an entry from. It also increases the size of the nlm_files hash table from 32 to 128.

* [PATCH] knfsd: lockd: Make nlm_host_rebooted use the nsm_handleOlaf Kirch2006-10-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch makes the SM_NOTIFY handling understand and use the nsm_handle. To make it a bit clear what is happening: nlmclent_prepare_reclaim and nlmclnt_finish_reclaim get open-coded into 'reclaimer' The result is tidied up. Then some of that functionality is moved out into nlm_host_rebooted (which calls nlmclnt_recovery which starts a thread which runs reclaimer). Also host_rebooted now finds an nsm_handle rather than a host, then then iterates over all hosts and deals with each host that shares that nsm_handle.

* [PATCH] knfsd: lockd: introduce nsm_handleOlaf Kirch2006-10-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch introduces the nsm_handle, which is shared by all nlm_host objects referring to the same client. With this patch applied, all nlm_hosts from the same address will share the same nsm_handle. A future patch will add sharing by name. Note: this patch changes h_name so that it is no longer guaranteed to be an IP address of the host. When the host represents an NFS server, h_name will be the name passed in the mount call. When the host represents a client, h_name will be the name presented in the lock request received from the client. A h_name is only used for printing informational messages, this change should not be significant.

* [PATCH] knfsd: make nfsd readahead params cache SMP-friendlyGreg Banks2006-10-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Make the nfsd read-ahead params cache more SMP-friendly by changing the single global list and lock into a fixed 16-bucket hashtable with per-bucket locks. This reduces spinlock contention in nfsd_read() on read-heavy workloads on multiprocessor servers. Testing was on a 4 CPU 4 NIC Altix using 4 IRIX clients each doing 1K streaming reads at full line rate. The server had 128 nfsd threads, which sizes the RA cache at 256 entries, of which only a handful were used. Flat profiling shows nfsd_read(), including the inlined nfsd_get_raparms(), taking 10.4% of each CPU. This patch drops the contribution from nfsd() to 1.71% for each CPU.

* [PATCH] knfsd: Prepare knfsd for support of rsize/wsize of up to 1MB, over TCPGreg Banks2006-10-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The limit over UDP remains at 32K. Also, make some of the apparently arbitrary sizing constants clearer. The biggest change here involves replacing NFSSVC_MAXBLKSIZE by a function of the rqstp. This allows it to be different for different protocols (udp/tcp) and also allows it to depend on the servers declared sv_bufsiz. Note that we don't actually increase sv_bufsz for nfs yet.

* [PATCH] knfsd: Avoid excess stack usage in svc_tcp_recvfromNeilBrown2006-10-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | .. 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).

* [PATCH] knfsd: Replace two page lists in struct svc_rqst with oneNeilBrown2006-10-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* [PATCH] VFS: Make filldir_t and struct kstat deal in 64-bit inode numbersDavid Howells2006-10-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | These patches make the kernel pass 64-bit inode numbers internally when communicating to userspace, even on a 32-bit system. They are required because some filesystems have intrinsic 64-bit inode numbers: NFS3+ and XFS for example. The 64-bit inode numbers are then propagated to userspace automatically where the arch supports it. Problems have been seen with userspace (eg: ld.so) using the 64-bit inode number returned by stat64() or getdents64() to differentiate files, and failing because the 64-bit inode number space was compressed to 32-bits, and so overlaps occur. This patch: Make filldir_t take a 64-bit inode number and struct kstat carry a 64-bit inode number so that 64-bit inode numbers can be passed back to userspace. The stat functions then returns the full 64-bit inode number where available and where possible. If it is not possible to represent the inode number supplied by the filesystem in the field provided by userspace, then error EOVERFLOW will be issued. Similarly, the getdents/readdir functions now pass the full 64-bit inode number to userspace where possible, returning EOVERFLOW instead when a directory entry is encountered that can't be properly represented. Note that this means that some inodes will not be stat'able on a 32-bit system with old libraries where they were before - but it does mean that there will be no ambiguity over what a 32-bit inode number refers to. Note similarly that directory scans may be cut short with an error on a 32-bit system with old libraries where the scan would work before for the same reasons. It is judged unlikely that this situation will occur because modern glibc uses 64-bit capable versions of stat and getdents class functions exclusively, and that older systems are unlikely to encounter unrepresentable inode numbers anyway.

* | [PATCH] proc: Merge proc_tid_attr and proc_tgid_attrEric W. Biederman2006-10-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The implementation is exactly the same and there is currently nothing to distinguish proc_tid_attr, and proc_tgid_attr. So it is pointless to have two separate implementations. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

* | [PATCH] proc: Remove the hard coded inode numbersEric W. Biederman2006-10-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The hard coded inode numbers in proc currently limit its maintainability, its flexibility, and what can be done with the rest of system. /proc limits pid-max to 32768 on 32 bit systems it limits fd-max to 32768 on all systems, and placing the pid in the inode number really gets in the way of implementing subdirectories of per process information. Ever since people started adding to the middle of the file type enumeration we haven't been maintaing the historical inode numbers, all we have really succeeded in doing is keeping the pid in the proc inode number. The pid is already available in the directory name so no information is lost removing it from the inode number. So if something in user space cares if we remove the inode number from the /proc inode it is almost certainly broken. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

* | [PATCH] proc: Factor out an instantiate method from every lookup methodEric W. Biederman2006-10-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To remove the hard coded proc inode numbers it is necessary to be able to create the proc inodes during readdir. The instantiate methods are the subset of lookup that is needed to accomplish that. This first step just splits the lookup methods into 2 functions. Signed-off-by: Eric W.
