frwr_op_unmap_sync() is now invoked in a workqueue context, the same
as __frwr_queue_recovery(). There's no need to defer MR reset if
posting LOCAL_INV MRs fails.
This means that even when ib_post_send() fails (which should occur
very rarely) the invalidation and DMA unmapping steps are still done
in the correct order.

Move the the I/O direction field from rpcrdma_mr_seg into the
rpcrdma_frmr.
This makes it possible to DMA-unmap the frwr long after an RPC has
exited and its rpcrdma_mr_seg array has been released and re-used.
This might occur if an RPC times out while waiting for a new

rpcrdma_marshal_req() makes a simplifying assumption: that NFS
operations with large Call messages have small Reply messages, and
vice versa. Therefore with RPC-over-RDMA, only one chunk type is
ever needed for each Call/Reply pair, because one direction needs
chunks, the other direction will always fit inline.
In fact, this assumption is asserted in the code:
if (rtype != rpcrdma_noch && wtype != rpcrdma_noch) {
dprintk("RPC: %s: cannot marshal multiple chunk lists\n",
__func__);
return -EIO;
}
But RPCGSS_SEC breaks this assumption. Because krb5i and krb5p
perform data transformation on RPC messages before they are
transmitted, direct data placement techniques cannot be used, thus
RPC messages must be sent via a Long call in both directions.
All such calls are sent with a Position Zero Read chunk, and all
such replies are handled with a Reply chunk. Thus the client must
provide every Call/Reply pair with both a Read list and a Reply
chunk.
Without any special security in effect, NFSv4 WRITEs may now also
use the Read list and provide a Reply chunk. The marshal_req
logic was preventing that, meaning an NFSv4 WRITE with a large
payload that included a GETATTR result larger than the inline
threshold would fail.
The code that encodes each chunk list is now completely contained in
its own function. There is some code duplication, but the trade-off
is that the overall logic should be more clear.
Note that all three chunk lists now share the rl_segments array.
Some additional per-req accounting is necessary to track this
usage. For the same reasons that the above simplifying assumption
has held true for so long, I don't expect more array elements are
needed at this time.

When deciding whether to send a Call inline, rpcrdma_marshal_req
doesn't take into account header bytes consumed by chunk lists.
This results in Call messages on the wire that are sometimes larger
than the inline threshold.
Likewise, when a Write list or Reply chunk is in play, the server's
reply has to emit an RDMA Send that includes a larger-than-minimal
RPC-over-RDMA header.
The actual size of a Call message cannot be estimated until after
the chunk lists have been registered. Thus the size of each
RPC-over-RDMA header can be estimated only after chunks are
registered; but the decision to register chunks is based on the size
of that header. Chicken, meet egg.
The best a client can do is estimate header size based on the
largest header that might occur, and then ensure that inline content
is always smaller than that.

Send buffer space is shared between the RPC-over-RDMA header and
an RPC message. A large RPC-over-RDMA header means less space is
available for the associated RPC message, which then has to be
moved via an RDMA Read or Write.
As more segments are added to the chunk lists, the header increases
in size. Typical modern hardware needs only a few segments to
convey the maximum payload size, but some devices and registration
modes may need a lot of segments to convey data payload. Sometimes
so many are needed that the remaining space in the Send buffer is
not enough for the RPC message. Sending such a message usually
fails.
To ensure a transport can always make forward progress, cap the
number of RDMA segments that are allowed in chunk lists. This
prevents less-capable devices and memory registrations from
consuming a large portion of the Send buffer by reducing the
maximum data payload that can be conveyed with such devices.
For now I choose an arbitrary maximum of 8 RDMA segments. This
allows a maximum size RPC-over-RDMA header to fit nicely in the
current 1024 byte inline threshold with over 700 bytes remaining
for an inline RPC message.
The current maximum data payload of NFS READ or WRITE requests is
one megabyte. To convey that payload on a client with 4KB pages,
each chunk segment would need to handle 32 or more data pages. This
is well within the capabilities of FMR. For physical registration,
the maximum payload size on platforms with 4KB pages is reduced to
32KB.
For FRWR, a device's maximum page list depth would need to be at
least 34 to support the maximum 1MB payload. A device with a smaller
maximum page list depth means the maximum data payload is reduced
when using that device.

Currently the sysctls that allow setting the inline threshold allow
any value to be set.
Small values only make the transport run slower. The default 1KB
setting is as low as is reasonable. And the logic that decides how
to divide a Send buffer between RPC-over-RDMA header and RPC message
assumes (but does not check) that the lower bound is not crazy (say,
57 bytes).
Send and receive buffers share a page with some control information.
Values larger than about 3KB can't be supported, currently.

PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.
This promise never materialized. And unlikely will.
We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to
PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether
PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case,
especially on the border between fs and mm.
Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much
breakage to be doable.
Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are
not.
The changes are pretty straight-forward:
- <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;
- <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;
- PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN};
- page_cache_get() -> get_page();
- page_cache_release() -> put_page();
This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using
script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files.
I've called spatch for them manually.
The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to
PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later.
There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll
fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also
will be addressed with the separate patch.

Calling ib_poll_cq() to sort through WCs during a completion is a
common pattern amongst RDMA consumers. Since commit 14d3a3b249
("IB: add a proper completion queue abstraction"), WC sorting can
be handled by the IB core.
By converting to this new API, xprtrdma is made a better neighbor to
other RDMA consumers, as it allows the core to schedule the delivery
of completions more fairly amongst all active consumers.
Because each ib_cqe carries a pointer to a completion method, the
core can now post its own operations on a consumer's QP, and handle
the completions itself, without changes to the consumer.
Send completions were previously handled entirely in the completion
upcall handler (ie, deferring to a process context is unneeded).
Thus IB_POLL_SOFTIRQ is a direct replacement for the current
xprtrdma send code path.

Commit fe97b47cd6 ("xprtrdma: Use workqueue to process RPC/RDMA
replies") replaced the reply tasklet with a workqueue that allows
RPC replies to be processed in parallel. Thus the credit values in
RPC-over-RDMA replies can be applied in a different order than in
which the server sent them.
To fix this, revert commit eba8ff660b ("xprtrdma: Move credit
update to RPC reply handler"). Reverting is done by hand to
accommodate code changes that have occurred since then.

A single memory allocation is used for the pair of buffers wherein
the RPC client builds an RPC call message and decodes its matching
reply. These buffers are sized based on the maximum possible size
of the RPC call and reply messages for the operation in progress.
This means that as the call buffer increases in size, the start of
the reply buffer is pushed farther into the memory allocation.
RPC requests are growing in size. It used to be that both the call
and reply buffers fit inside a single page.
But these days, thanks to NFSv4 (and especially security labels in
NFSv4.2) the maximum call and reply sizes are large. NFSv4.0 OPEN,
for example, now requires a 6KB allocation for a pair of call and
reply buffers, and NFSv4 LOOKUP is not far behind.
As the maximum size of a call increases, the reply buffer is pushed
far enough into the buffer's memory allocation that a page boundary
can appear in the middle of it.
When the maximum possible reply size is larger than the client's
RDMA receive buffers (currently 1KB), the client has to register a
Reply chunk for the server to RDMA Write the reply into.
The logic in rpcrdma_convert_iovs() assumes that xdr_buf head and
tail buffers would always be contained on a single page. It supplies
just one segment for the head and one for the tail.
FMR, for example, registers up to a page boundary (only a portion of
the reply buffer in the OPEN case above). But without additional
segments, it doesn't register the rest of the buffer.
When the server tries to write the OPEN reply, the RDMA Write fails
with a remote access error since the client registered only part of
the Reply chunk.
rpcrdma_convert_iovs() must split the XDR buffer into multiple
segments, each of which are guaranteed not to contain a page
boundary. That way fmr_op_map is given the proper number of segments
to register the whole reply buffer.

RFC 5666 Section 4.2 states:
> When the peer detects an RPC-over-RDMA header version that it does
> not support (currently this document defines only version 1), it
> replies with an error code of ERR_VERS, and provides the low and
> high inclusive version numbers it does, in fact, support.
And:
> When other decoding errors are detected in the header or chunks,
> either an RPC decode error MAY be returned or the RPC/RDMA error
> code ERR_CHUNK MUST be returned.
The Linux NFS server does throw ERR_VERS when a client sends it
a request whose rdma_version is not "one." But it does not return
ERR_CHUNK when a header decoding error occurs. It just drops the
request.
To improve protocol extensibility, it should reject invalid values
in the rdma_proc field instead of treating them all like RDMA_MSG.
Otherwise clients can't detect when the server doesn't support
new rdma_proc values.

When constructing an error reply, svc_rdma_xdr_encode_error()
needs to view the client's request message so it can get the
failing request's XID.
svc_rdma_xdr_decode_req() is supposed to return a pointer to the
client's request header. But if it fails to decode the client's
message (and thus an error reply is needed) it does not return the
pointer. The server then sends a bogus XID in the error reply.
Instead, unconditionally generate the pointer to the client's header
in svc_rdma_recvfrom(), and pass that pointer to both functions.

Fix several issues with svc_rdma_send_error():
- Post a receive buffer to replace the one that was consumed by
the incoming request
- Posting a send should use DMA_TO_DEVICE, not DMA_FROM_DEVICE
- No need to put_page _and_ free pages in svc_rdma_put_context
- Make sure the sge is set up completely in case the error
path goes through svc_rdma_unmap_dma()
- Replace the use of ENOSYS, which has a reserved meaning
Related fixes in svc_rdma_recvfrom():
- Don't leak the ctxt associated with the incoming request
- Don't close the connection after sending an error reply
- Let svc_rdma_send_error() figure out the right header error code
As a last clean up, move svc_rdma_send_error() to svc_rdma_sendto.c
with other similar functions. There is some common logic in these
functions that could someday be combined to reduce code duplication.

The maximum size of a backchannel message on RPC-over-RDMA depends
on the connection's inline threshold. Today that threshold is
typically 1024 bytes, making the maximum message size 996 bytes.
The Linux server's CREATE_SESSION operation checks that the size
of callback Calls can be as large as 1044 bytes, to accommodate
RPCSEC_GSS. Thus CREATE_SESSION fails if a client advertises the
true message size maximum of 996 bytes.
But the server's backchannel currently does not support RPCSEC_GSS.
The actual maximum size it needs is much smaller. It is safe to
reduce the limit to enable NFSv4.1 on RDMA backchannel operation.

The NFS server's XDR encoders adds an XDR pad for content in the
xdr_buf page list at the beginning of the xdr_buf's tail buffer.
On RDMA transports, Write chunks are sent separately and without an
XDR pad.
If a Write chunk is being sent, strip off the pad in the tail buffer
so that inline content following the Write chunk remains XDR-aligned
when it is sent to the client.

When the Linux NFS server writes an odd-length data item into a
Write chunk, it finishes with XDR pad bytes. If the data item is
smaller than the Write chunk, the pad bytes are written at the end
of the data item, but still inside the chunk (ie, in the
application's buffer). Since this is direct data placement, that
exposes the pad bytes.
XDR pad bytes are inserted in order to preserve the XDR alignment
of the next XDR data item in an XDR stream. But Write chunks do not
appear in the payload XDR stream, and only one data item is allowed
in each chunk. Thus XDR padding is not needed in a Write chunk.
With NFSv4, the Linux NFS server places the results of any
operations that follow an NFSv4 READ or READLINK in the xdr_buf's
tail. Those results also should never be sent as a part of a Write
chunk. The current logic in send_write_chunks() appears to assume
that the xdr_buf's tail contains only pad bytes (ie, NFSv3).
The server should write only the contents of the xdr_buf's page list
in a Write chunk. If there's more than an XDR pad in the tail, that
needs to go inline or in the Reply chunk.

The client provides the location of Write chunks into which the
server writes bulk payload. The client provides these when the
Upper Layer Protocol wants direct data placement and the Binding
allows it. (For NFS, this is READ and READLINK operations).
The client also provides the location of a Reply chunk into which
the server writes the non-bulk part of an RPC reply. The client
provides this chunk whenever it believes the reply can be larger
than its receive buffers.
The server then uses the presence of these chunks to determine how
it will form its reply message.
svc_rdma_sendto() was looking for Write and Reply chunks multiple
times for every reply message. It would be more efficient to do it
just once.
