203b42f731 workqueue: make deferrable delayed_work initializer names consistent
Initalizers for deferrable delayed_work are confused.

* __DEFERRED_WORK_INITIALIZER()
* DECLARE_DEFERRED_WORK()
* INIT_DELAYED_WORK_DEFERRABLE()

Rename them to

* __DEFERRABLE_WORK_INITIALIZER()
* DECLARE_DEFERRABLE_WORK()
* INIT_DEFERRABLE_WORK()

This patch doesn't cause any functional changes.

200724a707 SUNRPC/cache: fix reporting of expired cache entries in 'content' file.
Entries that are in a sunrpc cache but are not valid should be reported
with a leading '#' so they look like a comment.
Commit  d202cce896 (sunrpc: never return expired entries in sunrpc_cache_lookup)
broke this for expired entries.

This particularly applies to entries that have been replaced by newer entries.
sunrpc_cache_update sets the expiry of the replaced entry to '0', but it
remains in the cache until the next 'cache_clean'.
The result is that if you

  echo 0 2000000000 1 0 > /proc/net/rpc/auth.unix.gid/channel

several times, then

  cat /proc/net/rpc/auth.unix.gid/content

It will display multiple entries for the one uid, which is at least confusing:

  #uid cnt: gids...
  0 1: 0
  0 1: 0
  0 1: 0

With this patch, expired entries are marked as comments so you get

  #uid cnt: gids...
  0 1: 0
  # 0 1: 0
  # 0 1: 0

These expired entries will never be seen by cache_check() as they are always
*after* a non-expired entry with the same key - so the extra check is only
needed in c_show()

fdef7aa5d4 svcrpc: ensure cache_check caller sees updated entry
Supposes cache_check runs simultaneously with an update on a different
CPU:

	cache_check			task doing update
	^^^^^^^^^^^			^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

	1. test for CACHE_VALID		1'. set entry->data
	   & !CACHE_NEGATIVE

	2. use entry->data		2'. set CACHE_VALID

If the two memory writes performed in step 1' and 2' appear misordered
with respect to the reads in step 1 and 2, then the caller could get
stale data at step 2 even though it saw CACHE_VALID set on the cache
entry.

Add memory barriers to prevent this.

6bab93f87e svcrpc: take lock on turning entry NEGATIVE in cache_check
We attempt to turn a cache entry negative in place.  But that entry may
already have been filled in by some other task since we last checked
whether it was valid, so we could be modifying an already-valid entry.
If nothing else there's a likely leak in such a case when the entry is
eventually put() and contents are not freed because it has
CACHE_NEGATIVE set.

So, take the cache_lock just as sunrpc_cache_update() does.

d76d1815f3 svcrpc: avoid double reply caused by deferral race
Commit d29068c431 "sunrpc: Simplify cache_defer_req and related
functions." asserted that cache_check() could determine success or
failure of cache_defer_req() by checking the CACHE_PENDING bit.

This isn't quite right.

We need to know whether cache_defer_req() created a deferred request,
in which case sending an rpc reply has become the responsibility of the
deferred request, and it is important that we not send our own reply,
resulting in two different replies to the same request.

And the CACHE_PENDING bit doesn't tell us that; we could have
succesfully created a deferred request at the same time as another
thread cleared the CACHE_PENDING bit.

So, partially revert that commit, to ensure that cache_check() returns
-EAGAIN if and only if a deferred request has been created.

6038f373a3 llseek: automatically add .llseek fop
All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make
nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a
.llseek pointer.

The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek
and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that
the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains
the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek.

New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek
and call nonseekable_open at open time.  Existing drivers can be converted
to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code
relies on calling seek on the device file.

The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains
comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was
chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will
be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not
seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle.

Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get
the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window.

Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic
patch that does all this.

e33534d54f sunrpc/cache: centralise handling of size limit on deferred list.
We limit the number of 'defer' requests to DFR_MAX.

The imposition of this limit is spread about a bit - sometime we don't
add new things to the list, sometimes we remove old things.

Also it is currently applied to requests which we are 'waiting' for
rather than 'deferring'.  This doesn't seem ideal as 'waiting'
requests are naturally limited by the number of threads.

So gather the DFR_MAX handling code to one place and only apply it to
requests that are actually being deferred.

This means that not all 'cache_deferred_req' structures go on the
'cache_defer_list, so we need to be careful when adding and removing
things.

d29068c431 sunrpc: Simplify cache_defer_req and related functions.
The return value from cache_defer_req is somewhat confusing.
Various different error codes are returned, but the single caller is
only interested in success or failure.

In fact it can measure this success or failure itself by checking
CACHE_PENDING, which makes the point of the code more explicit.

So change cache_defer_req to return 'void' and test CACHE_PENDING
after it completes, to see if the request was actually deferred or
not.

Similarly setup_deferral and cache_wait_req don't need a return value,
so make them void and remove some code.

The call to cache_revisit_request (to guard against a race) is only
needed for the second call to setup_deferral, so move it out of
setup_deferral to after that second call.  With the first call the
race is handled differently (by explicitly calling
'wait_for_completion').

277f68dbba sunrpc: fix race in new cache_wait code.
If we set up to wait for a cache item to be filled in, and then find
that it is no longer pending, it could be that some other thread is
in 'cache_revisit_request' and has moved our request to its 'pending' list.
So when our setup_deferral calls cache_revisit_request it will find nothing to
put on the pending list, and do nothing.

We then return from cache_wait_req, thus leaving the 'sleeper'
on-stack structure open to being corrupted by subsequent stack usage.

However that 'sleeper' could still be on the 'pending' list that the
other thread is looking at and so any corruption could cause it to behave badly.

To avoid this race we simply take the same path as if the
'wait_for_completion_interruptible_timeout' was interrupted and if the
sleeper is no longer on the list (which it won't be) we wait on the
completion - which will ensure that any other cache_revisit_request
will have let go of the sleeper.

want to fail the upcall immediately.  Otherwise client requests will be
dropped unnecessarily on reboot.

Also document these conditions.

f16b6e8d83 sunrpc/cache: allow threads to block while waiting for cache update.
The current practice of waiting for cache updates by queueing the
whole request to be retried has (at least) two problems.

1/ With NFSv4, requests can be quite complex and re-trying a whole
  request when a later part fails should only be a last-resort, not a
  normal practice.

2/ Large requests, and in particular any 'write' request, will not be
  queued by the current code and doing so would be undesirable.

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.

8eab945c56 sunrpc: make the cache cleaner workqueue deferrable
This patch makes the cache_cleaner workqueue deferrable, to prevent
unnecessary system wake-ups, which is very important for embedded
battery-powered devices.

do_cache_clean() is called every 30 seconds at the moment, and often
makes the system wake up from its power-save sleep state. With this
change, when the workqueue uses a deferrable timer, the
do_cache_clean() invocation will be delayed and combined with the
closest "real" wake-up. This improves the power consumption situation.

Note, I tried to create a DECLARE_DELAYED_WORK_DEFERRABLE() helper
macro, similar to DECLARE_DELAYED_WORK(), but failed because of the
way the timer wheel core stores the deferrable flag (it is the
LSBit in the time->base pointer). My attempt to define a static
variable with this bit set ended up with the "initializer element is
not constant" error.

Thus, I have to use run-time initialization, so I created a new
cache_initialize() function which is called once when sunrpc is
being initialized.

d202cce896 sunrpc: never return expired entries in sunrpc_cache_lookup
If sunrpc_cache_lookup finds an expired entry, remove it from
the cache and return a freshly created non-VALID entry instead.
This ensures that we only ever get a usable entry, or an
entry that will become usable once an update arrives.
i.e. we will never need to repeat the lookup.

This allows us to remove the 'is_expired' test from cache_check
(i.e. from cache_is_valid).  cache_check should never get an expired
entry as 'lookup' will never return one.  If it does happen - due to
inconvenient timing - then just accept it as still valid, it won't be
very much past it's use-by date.

3af4974eb2 sunrpc: don't keep expired entries in the auth caches.
currently expired entries remain in the auth caches as long
as there is a reference.
This was needed long ago when the auth_domain cache used the same
cache infrastructure.  But since that (being a very different sort
of cache) was separated, this test is no longer needed.

So remove the test on refcnt and tidy up the surrounding code.

This allows the cache_dequeue call (which needed to be there to
drop a potentially awkward reference) can be moved outside of the
spinlock which is a better place for it.

The extra call to cache_revisit_request in cache_fresh_unlocked is not
needed, as should have been fairly clear at the time of
   commit 4013edea9a

If there are requests to be revisited, then we can be sure that
CACHE_PENDING is set, so the second call is sufficient.

So remove the first call.
Then remove the 'new' parameter,
then remove the return value for cache_fresh_locked which is only used
to provide the value for 'new'.

As "cache_defer_req" does not sound like a predicate, having it return
a boolean value can be confusing.  It is more consistent to return
0 for success and negative for error.

Exactly what error code to return is not important as we don't
differentiate between reasons why the request wasn't deferred,
we only care about whether it was deferred or not.
