NFS_RPC_SWAPFLAGS is only used for READ requests.
It sets RPC_TASK_SWAPPER which gives some memory-allocation priority to
requests. This is not needed for swap READ - though it is for writes
where it is set via a different mechanism.
RPC_TASK_ROOTCREDS causes the 'machine' credential to be used.
This is not needed as the root credential is saved when the swap file is
opened, and this is used for all IO.
So NFS_RPC_SWAPFLAGS isn't needed, and as it is the only user of
RPC_TASK_ROOTCREDS, that isn't needed either.
Remove both.

Avoid clearing the entire readdir page cache if we're just doing forced
readdirplus for the 'ls -l' heuristic.
Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@hammerspace.com>
Instead of using a linear index to address the pages, use the cookie of
the first entry, since that is what we use to match the page anyway.
This allows us to avoid re-reading the entire cache on a seekdir() type
of operation. The latter is very common when re-exporting NFS, and is a
major performance drain.
The change does affect our duplicate cookie detection, since we can no
longer rely on the page index as a linear offset for detecting whether
we looped backwards. However since we no longer do a linear search
through all the pages on each call to nfs_readdir(), this is less of a
concern than it was previously.
The other downside is that invalidate_mapping_pages() no longer can use
the page index to avoid clearing pages that have been read. A subsequent
patch will restore the functionality this provides to the 'ls -l'
heuristic.

If attribute caching is turned off, then use of readdirplus is not going

Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@hammerspace.com>
The heuristic for readdirplus is designed to try to detect 'ls -l' and
similar patterns. It does so by looking for cache hit/miss patterns in
both the attribute cache and in the dcache of the files in a given
directory, and then sets a flag for the readdirplus code to interpret.
The problem with this approach is that a single attribute or dcache miss
can cause the NFS code to force a refresh of the attributes for the
entire set of files contained in the directory.
To be able to make a more nuanced decision, let's sample the number of
hits and misses in the set of open directory descriptors. That allows us
to set thresholds at which we start preferring READDIRPLUS over regular
READDIR, or at which we start to force a re-read of the remaining
readdir cache using READDIRPLUS.

Ensure that if the cookie verifier changes when we use the zero-valued
cookie, then we invalidate any cached pages.
Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@hammerspace.com>
The current NFS readdir code will always try to maximise the amount of
readahead it performs on the assumption that we can cache anything that
isn't immediately read by the process.
There are several cases where this assumption breaks down, including
when the 'ls -l' heuristic kicks in to try to force use of readdirplus
as a batch replacement for lookup/getattr.
This patch therefore tries to tone down the amount of readahead we
perform, and adjust it to try to match the amount of data being
requested by user space.

If the page cache entry that was last read gets invalidated for some
reason, then make sure we can re-create it on the next call to readdir.
This, combined with the cache page validation, allows us to reuse the
cached value of page-index on successive calls to nfs_readdir.
Credit is due to Benjamin Coddington for showing that the concept works,
and that it allows for improved cache sharing between processes even in
the case where pages are lost due to LRU or active invalidation.

The reference counting issue happens in two error paths in the
function _nfs42_proc_copy_notify(). In both error paths, the function
simply returns the error code and forgets to balance the refcount of
object `ctx`, bumped by get_nfs_open_context() earlier, which may
cause refcount leaks.

returns in both error paths.
