Commit 2c61be0a94 (NFS: Ensure that the WRITE
and COMMIT RPC calls are always uninterruptible) exposed a race on file
close. In order to ensure correct close-to-open behaviour, we want to wait
for all outstanding background commit operations to complete.
This patch adds an inode flag that indicates if a commit operation is under
way, and provides a mechanism to allow ->write_inode() to wait for its
completion if this is a data integrity flush.

Now that we have correct COMMIT semantics in writeback_single_inode, we can
reduce and simplify nfs_wb_all(). Also replace nfs_wb_nocommit() with a
call to filemap_write_and_wait(), which doesn't need to hold the
inode->i_mutex.
With that done, we can eliminate nfs_write_mapping() altogether.

We can't call nfs_readdata_release()/nfs_writedata_release() without
first initialising and referencing args.context. Doing so inside
nfs_direct_read_schedule_segment()/nfs_direct_write_schedule_segment()
causes an Oops.
We should rather be calling nfs_readdata_free()/nfs_writedata_free() in
those cases.
Looking at the O_DIRECT code, the "struct nfs_direct_req" is already
referencing the nfs_open_context for us. Since the readdata and writedata
structures carry a reference to that, we can simplify things by getting rid
of the extra nfs_open_context references, so that we can replace all
instances of nfs_readdata_release()/nfs_writedata_release().

The following patch is a combination of a patch by myself and Peter
Staubach.
Trond: If we allow other processes to dirty pages while a process is doing
a consistency sync to disk, we can end up never making progress.
Peter: Attached is a patch which addresses a continuing problem with
the NFS client generating out of order WRITE requests. While
this is compliant with all of the current protocol
specifications, there are servers in the market which can not
handle out of order WRITE requests very well. Also, this may
lead to sub-optimal block allocations in the underlying file
system on the server. This may cause the read throughputs to
be reduced when reading the file from the server.
Peter: There has been a lot of work recently done to address out of
order issues on a systemic level. However, the NFS client is
still susceptible to the problem. Out of order WRITE
requests can occur when pdflush is in the middle of writing
out pages while the process dirtying the pages calls
generic_file_buffered_write which calls
generic_perform_write which calls
balance_dirty_pages_rate_limited which ends up calling
writeback_inodes which ends up calling back into the NFS
client to writes out dirty pages for the same file that
pdflush happens to be working with.

Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
Hi.
I've been looking at a bugzilla which describes a problem where
a customer was advised to use either the "noac" or "actimeo=0"
mount options to solve a consistency problem that they were
seeing in the file attributes. It turned out that this solution
did not work reliably for them because sometimes, the local
attribute cache was believed to be valid and not timed out.
(With an attribute cache timeout of 0, the cache should always
appear to be timed out.)
In looking at this situation, it appears to me that the problem
is that the attribute cache timeout code has an off-by-one
error in it. It is assuming that the cache is valid in the
region, [read_cache_jiffies, read_cache_jiffies + attrtimeo]. The
cache should be considered valid only in the region,
[read_cache_jiffies, read_cache_jiffies + attrtimeo). With this
change, the options, "noac" and "actimeo=0", work as originally
expected.
This problem was previously addressed by special casing the
attrtimeo == 0 case. However, since the problem is only an off-
by-one error, the cleaner solution is address the off-by-one
error and thus, not require the special case.
Thanx...

It appears that 'jiffies' timestamps do not have high enough resolution for
nfs_inode_attrs_need_update(). One problem is that a GETATTR can be
launched within < 1 jiffy of the last operation that updated the attribute.
Another problem is that RPC calls can take < 1 jiffy to execute.
We can fix this by switching the variables to use a simple global counter
that gets incremented every time we start another GETATTR call.

The addition of nfs_page_mkwrite means that We should no longer need to

Ryusuke Konishi says:
The recent truncate_complete_page() clears the dirty flag from a page
before calling a_ops->invalidatepage(),
^^^^^^
static void
truncate_complete_page(struct address_space *mapping, struct page *page)
{
...
cancel_dirty_page(page, PAGE_CACHE_SIZE); <--- Inserted here at
kernel 2.6.20
if (PagePrivate(page))
do_invalidatepage(page, 0); ---> will call
a_ops->invalidatepage()
...
}
and this is disturbing nfs_wb_page_priority() from calling
nfs_writepage_locked() that is expected to handle the pending
request (=nfs_page) associated with the page.
int nfs_wb_page_priority(struct inode *inode, struct page *page, int how)
{
...
if (clear_page_dirty_for_io(page)) {
ret = nfs_writepage_locked(page, &wbc);
if (ret < 0)
goto out;
}
...
}
Since truncate_complete_page() will get rid of the page after
a_ops->invalidatepage() returns, the request (=nfs_page) associated
with the page becomes a garbage in nfs_inode->nfs_page_tree.
------------------------
Fix this by ensuring that nfs_wb_page_priority() recognises that it may
also need to clear out non-dirty pages that have an nfs_page associated

Respond to a moved error on NFS lookup by setting up the referral.
Note: We don't actually follow the referral during lookup/getattr, but
later when we detect fsid mismatch in inode revalidation (similar to the
processing done for cloning submounts). Referrals will have fake attributes
until they are actually followed or traversed.

Kudos to Neil Brown for spotting the problem:
"in nfs_sync_inode, there is effectively the sequence:
nfs_wait_on_requests
nfs_flush_inode
nfs_commit_inode
This seems a bit racy to me as if the only requests are on the
->commit list, and nfs_commit_inode is called separately after
nfs_wait_on_requests completes, and before nfs_commit_inode start
(say: by nfs_write_inode) then none of these function will return
>0, yet there will be some pending request that aren't waited for."
The solution is to search for requests to wait upon, search for dirty
requests, and search for uncommitted requests while holding the
nfsi->req_lock
The patch also cleans up nfs_sync_inode(), getting rid of the redundant
FLUSH_WAIT flag. It turns out that we were always setting it.

Currently NFS O_DIRECT writes use FILE_SYNC so that a COMMIT is not
necessary. This simplifies the internal logic, but this could be a
difficult workload for some servers.
Instead, let's send UNSTABLE writes, and after they all complete, send a
COMMIT for the dirty range. After the COMMIT returns successfully, then do
the wake_up or fire off aio_complete().
Test plan:
Async direct I/O tests against Solaris (or any server that requires
committed unstable writes). Reboot server during test.

Duplicate infrastructure from direct read path that will allow write
path to generate multiple write requests concurrently. This will
enable us to add support for aio in this path.
Temporarily we will lose the ability to do UNSTABLE writes followed by
a COMMIT in the direct write path. However, all applications I am
aware of that use NFS O_DIRECT currently write in relatively small
chunks, so this should not be inconvenient in any way.

Same callback hierarchy inversion as for the NFS write calls. This patch is

This patch inverts the callback hierarchy for NFS write calls.
Instead of having the NFSv2/v3/v4-specific code set up the RPC callback
ops, we allow the original caller to do so. This allows for more
flexibility w.r.t. how to set up and tear down the nfs_write_data
structure while still allowing the NFSv3/v4 code to perform error
handling.
The greater flexibility is needed by the asynchronous O_DIRECT code, which
wants to be able to hold on to the original nfs_write_data structures after
the WRITE RPC call has completed in order to be able to replay them if the
COMMIT call determines that the server has rebooted.

Most NFS server implementations allow up to 64KB reads and writes on the
wire. The Solaris NFS server allows up to a megabyte, for instance.
Now the Linux NFS client supports transfer sizes up to 1MB, too. This will
help reduce protocol and context switch overhead on read/write intensive NFS
workloads, and support larger atomic read and write operations on servers
that support them.

Setattr is currently violating the NFSv4 rules for OPEN_DOWNGRADE in that

Since we almost always call nfs_end_data_update() after we called
nfs_refresh_inode(), we now end up marking the inode metadata
as needing revalidation immediately after having updated it.

that need it.

Down the road we want to eliminate the use of the global kernel lock entirely
from the NFS client. To do this, we need to protect the fields in the
nfs_inode structure adequately. Start by serializing updates to the
"cache_validity" field.
Note this change addresses an SMP hang found by njw@osdl.org, where processes
deadlock because nfs_end_data_update and nfs_revalidate_mapping update the
"cache_validity" field without proper serialization.

Introduce atomic bitops to manipulate the bits in the nfs_inode structure's
"flags" field.
Using bitops means we can use a generic wait_on_bit call instead of an ad hoc
locking scheme in fs/nfs/inode.c, so we can remove the "nfs_i_wait" field from
nfs_inode at the same time.
The other new flags field will continue to use bitmask and logic AND and OR.
This permits several flags to be set at the same time efficiently. The
following patch adds a spin lock to protect these flags, and this spin lock
will later cover other fields in the nfs_inode structure, amortizing the cost
of using this type of serialization.

When the client performs an exclusive create and opens the file for writing,
a Netapp filer will first create the file using the mode 01777. It does this
since an NFSv3/v4 exclusive create cannot immediately set the mode bits.
The 01777 mode then gets put into the inode->i_mode. After the file creation
is successful, we then do a setattr to change the mode to the correct value
(as per the NFS spec).
The problem is that nfs_refresh_inode() no longer updates inode->i_mode, so
the latter retains the 01777 mode. A bit later, the VFS notices this, and calls
remove_suid(). This of course now resets the file mode to inode->i_mode & 0777.
Hey presto, the file mode on the server is now magically changed to 0777. Duh...

Attach acls to inodes in the icache to avoid unnecessary GETACL RPC
round-trips. As long as the client doesn't retrieve any acls itself, only the
default acls of exiting directories and the default and access acls of new

always caching the access and default acl of all files.

NFSv3 has no concept of a umask on the server side: The client applies
the umask locally, and sends the effective permissions to the server.
This behavior is wrong when files are created in a directory that has a
default ACL. In this case, the umask is supposed to be ignored, and
only the default ACL determines the file's effective permissions.
Usually its the server's task to conditionally apply the umask. But
since the server knows nothing about the umask, we have to do it on the
client side. This patch tries to fetch the parent directory's default
ACL before creating a new file, computes the appropriate create mode to
send to the server, and finally sets the new file's access and default
acl appropriately.
