* SUNRPC: Close a race in __rpc_wait_for_completion_task()Trond Myklebust2011-03-101-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Although they run as rpciod background tasks, under normal operation (i.e. no SIGKILL), functions like nfs_sillyrename(), nfs4_proc_unlck() and nfs4_do_close() want to be fully synchronous. This means that when we exit, we want all references to the rpc_task to be gone, and we want any dentry references etc. held by that task to be released. For this reason these functions call __rpc_wait_for_completion_task(), followed by rpc_put_task() in the expectation that the latter will be releasing the last reference to the rpc_task, and thus ensuring that the callback_ops->rpc_release() has been called synchronously. This patch fixes a race which exists due to the fact that rpciod calls rpc_complete_task() (in order to wake up the callers of __rpc_wait_for_completion_task()) and then subsequently calls rpc_put_task() without ensuring that these two steps are done atomically. In order to avoid adding new spin locks, the patch uses the existing waitqueue spin lock to order the rpc_task reference count releases between the waiting process and rpciod. The common case where nobody is waiting for completion is optimised for by checking if the RPC_TASK_ASYNC flag is cleared and/or if the rpc_task reference count is 1: in those cases we drop trying to grab the spin lock, and immediately free up the rpc_task. Those few processes that need to put the rpc_task from inside an asynchronous context and that do not care about ordering are given a new helper: rpc_put_task_async().

| | | | | | | | | | The information required to find the nfs_client cooresponding to the incoming back channel request is contained in the NFS layer.

| * svcrpc: simpler request droppingJ. Bruce Fields2011-01-041-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently we use -EAGAIN returns to determine when to drop a deferred request. On its own, that is error-prone, as it makes us treat -EAGAIN returns from other functions specially to prevent inadvertent dropping. So, use a flag on the request instead. Returning an error on request deferral is still required, to prevent further processing, but we no longer need worry that an error return on its own could result in a drop. Signed-off-by: J.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The xpt_pool field is only used for reporting BUGs. And it isn't used correctly. In particular, when it is cleared in svc_xprt_received before XPT_BUSY is cleared, there is no guarantee that either the compiler or the CPU might not re-order to two assignments, just setting xpt_pool to NULL after XPT_BUSY is cleared. If a different cpu were running svc_xprt_enqueue at this moment, it might see XPT_BUSY clear and then xpt_pool non-NULL, and so BUG. This could be fixed by calling smp_mb__before_clear_bit() before the clear_bit. However as xpt_pool isn't really used, it seems safest to simply remove xpt_pool. Another alternate would be to change the clear_bit to clear_bit_unlock, and the test_and_set_bit to test_and_set_bit_lock. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: J.

| * | NFS refactor nfs_find_client and reference client across callback processingAndy Adamson2011-01-061-0/+13

Refactor nfs_find_client to use minorversion specific means to locate the correct nfs_client structure. In the NFS layer, V4.0 clients are found using the callback_ident field in the CB_COMPOUND header. V4.1 clients are found using the sessionID in the CB_SEQUENCE operation which is also compared against the sessionID associated with the back channel thread after a successful CREATE_SESSION. Each of these methods finds the one an only nfs_client associated with the incoming callback request - so nfs_find_client_next is not needed. In the RPC layer, the pg_authenticate call needs to find the nfs_client. For the v4.0 callback service, the callback identifier has not been decoded so a search by address, version, and minorversion is used. The sessionid for the sessions based callback service has (usually) not been set for the pg_authenticate on a CB_NULL call which can be sent prior to the return of a CREATE_SESSION call, so the sessionid associated with the back channel thread is not used to find the client in pg_authenticate for CB_NULL calls. Pass the referenced nfs_client to each CB_COMPOUND operation being proceesed via the new cb_process_state structure. The reference is held across cb_compound processing. Use the new cb_process_state struct to move the NFS4ERR_RETRY_UNCACHED_REP processing from process_op into nfs4_callback_sequence where it belongs.

In many cases only a very sort wait is needed before the cache gets valid data. So, providing the underlying transport permits it by setting ->thread_wait, arrange to wait briefly for an upcall to be completed (as reflected in the clearing of CACHE_PENDING). If the short wait was not long enough and CACHE_PENDING is still set, fall back on the old approach. The 'thread_wait' value is set to 5 seconds when there are spare threads, and 1 second when there are no spare threads. These values are probably much higher than needed, but will ensure some forward progress. Note that as we only request an update for a non-valid item, and as non-valid items are updated in place it is extremely unlikely that cache_check will return -ETIMEDOUT. Normally cache_defer_req will sleep for a short while and then find that the item is_valid. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@redhat.com>

| * | sunrpc: extract some common sunrpc_cache code from nfsdNeilBrown2010-09-071-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Rather can duplicating this idiom twice, put it in an inline function. This reduces the usage of 'expiry_time' out side the sunrpc/cache.c code and thus the impact of a change that is about to be made to that field.
