f38b20c645 [PATCH] knfsd: nfsd4: refactor exp_pseudoroot
We could be using more common code in exp_pseudoroot().  This will also
simplify some changes we need to make later.

bc5fea4299 [PATCH] knfsd: register all RPC programs with portmapper by default
The NFSACL patches introduced support for multiple RPC services listening on
the same transport.  However, only the first of these services was registered
with portmapper.  This was perfectly fine for nfsacl, as you traditionally do
not want these to show up in a portmapper listing.

The patch below changes the default behavior to always register all services
listening on a given transport, but retains the old behavior for nfsacl
services.

460f5cac1e [PATCH] knfsd: export nsm_local_state to user space via sysctl
Every NLM call includes the client's NSM state.  Currently, the Linux client
always reports 0 - which seems not to cause any problems, but is not what the
protocol says.

This patch exposes the kernel's internal variable to user space via a sysctl,
which can be set at system boot time by statd.

39be4502cb [PATCH] knfsd: match GRANTED_RES replies using cookies
When we send a GRANTED_MSG call, we current copy the NLM cookie provided in
the original LOCK call - because in 1996, some broken clients seemed to rely
on this bug.  However, this means the cookies are not unique, so that when the
client's GRANTED_RES message comes back, we cannot simply match it based on
the cookie, but have to use the client's IP address in addition.  Which breaks
when you have a multi-homed NFS client.

The X/Open spec explicitly mentions that clients should not expect the same
cookie; so one may hope that any clients that were broken in 1996 have either
been fixed or rendered obsolete.

abd1f50094 [PATCH] knfsd: lockd: optionally use hostnames for identifying peers
This patch adds the nsm_use_hostnames sysctl and module param.  If set, lockd
will use the client's name (as given in the NLM arguments) to find the NSM
handle.  This makes recovery work when the NFS peer is multi-homed, and the
reboot notification arrives from a different IP than the original lock calls.

350fce8dbf [PATCH] knfsd: simplify nlmsvc_invalidate_all
As a result of previous patches, the loop in nlmsvc_invalidate_all just sets
h_expires for all client/hosts to 0 (though does it in a very complicated
way).

This was possibly meant to trigger early garbage collection but half the time
'0' is in the future and so it infact delays garbage collection.

Pre-aging the 'hosts' is not really needed at this point anyway so we throw
out the loop and nlm_find_client which is no longer needed.

5c8dd29ca7 [PATCH] knfsd: lockd: Make nlm_host_rebooted use the nsm_handle
This patch makes the SM_NOTIFY handling understand and use the nsm_handle.

To make it a bit clear what is happening:

    nlmclent_prepare_reclaim and nlmclnt_finish_reclaim
    get open-coded into 'reclaimer'

The result is tidied up.

Then some of that functionality is moved out into nlm_host_rebooted (which
calls nlmclnt_recovery which starts a thread which runs reclaimer).

Also host_rebooted now finds an nsm_handle rather than a host, then then
iterates over all hosts and deals with each host that shares that nsm_handle.

8dead0dbd4 [PATCH] knfsd: lockd: introduce nsm_handle
This patch introduces the nsm_handle, which is shared by all nlm_host objects
referring to the same client.

With this patch applied, all nlm_hosts from the same address will share the
same nsm_handle.  A future patch will add sharing by name.

Note: this patch changes h_name so that it is no longer guaranteed to be an IP
address of the host.  When the host represents an NFS server, h_name will be
the name passed in the mount call.  When the host represents a client, h_name
will be the name presented in the lock request received from the client.  A
h_name is only used for printing informational messages, this change should
not be significant.

fce1456a19 [PATCH] knfsd: make nfsd readahead params cache SMP-friendly
Make the nfsd read-ahead params cache more SMP-friendly by changing the single
global list and lock into a fixed 16-bucket hashtable with per-bucket locks.
This reduces spinlock contention in nfsd_read() on read-heavy workloads on
multiprocessor servers.

Testing was on a 4 CPU 4 NIC Altix using 4 IRIX clients each doing 1K
streaming reads at full line rate.  The server had 128 nfsd threads, which
sizes the RA cache at 256 entries, of which only a handful were used.  Flat
profiling shows nfsd_read(), including the inlined nfsd_get_raparms(), taking
10.4% of each CPU.  This patch drops the contribution from nfsd() to 1.71% for
each CPU.

The limit over UDP remains at 32K.  Also, make some of the apparently
arbitrary sizing constants clearer.

The biggest change here involves replacing NFSSVC_MAXBLKSIZE by a function of
the rqstp.  This allows it to be different for different protocols (udp/tcp)
and also allows it to depend on the servers declared sv_bufsiz.

Note that we don't actually increase sv_bufsz for nfs yet.  That comes next.

3cc03b164c [PATCH] knfsd: Avoid excess stack usage in svc_tcp_recvfrom
..  by allocating the array of 'kvec' in 'struct svc_rqst'.

As we plan to increase RPCSVC_MAXPAGES from 8 upto 256, we can no longer
allocate an array of this size on the stack.  So we allocate it in 'struct
svc_rqst'.

However svc_rqst contains (indirectly) an array of the same type and size
(actually several, but they are in a union).  So rather than waste space, we
move those arrays out of the separately allocated union and into svc_rqst to
share with the kvec moved out of svc_tcp_recvfrom (various arrays are used at
different times, so there is no conflict).

4452435948 [PATCH] knfsd: Replace two page lists in struct svc_rqst with one
We are planning to increase RPCSVC_MAXPAGES from about 8 to about 256.  This
means we need to be a bit careful about arrays of size RPCSVC_MAXPAGES.

struct svc_rqst contains two such arrays.  However the there are never more
that RPCSVC_MAXPAGES pages in the two arrays together, so only one array is
needed.

The two arrays are for the pages holding the request, and the pages holding
the reply.  Instead of two arrays, we can simply keep an index into where the
first reply page is.

This patch also removes a number of small inline functions that probably
server to obscure what is going on rather than clarify it, and opencode the
needed functionality.

Also remove the 'rq_restailpage' variable as it is *always* 0.  i.e.  if the
response 'xdr' structure has a non-empty tail it is always in the same pages
as the head.

 check counters are initilised and incr properly
 check for consistant usage of ++ etc
 maybe extra some inlines for common approach

The refcount that nfsd holds on lockd is based on the number of open sockets.
So when we close a socket, we should decrement the ref (with lockd_down).

Currently when a socket is closed via writing to the portlist file, that

So: make sure we get an error return if the socket that was requested does is
not found, and call lockd_down if it was.

noticed that an error code assignment was only needed if an error had
actually occured.

afefdbb28a [PATCH] VFS: Make filldir_t and struct kstat deal in 64-bit inode numbers
These patches make the kernel pass 64-bit inode numbers internally when
communicating to userspace, even on a 32-bit system.  They are required
because some filesystems have intrinsic 64-bit inode numbers: NFS3+ and XFS
for example.  The 64-bit inode numbers are then propagated to userspace
automatically where the arch supports it.

Problems have been seen with userspace (eg: ld.so) using the 64-bit inode
number returned by stat64() or getdents64() to differentiate files, and
failing because the 64-bit inode number space was compressed to 32-bits, and
so overlaps occur.

This patch:

Make filldir_t take a 64-bit inode number and struct kstat carry a 64-bit
inode number so that 64-bit inode numbers can be passed back to userspace.

The stat functions then returns the full 64-bit inode number where
available and where possible.  If it is not possible to represent the inode
number supplied by the filesystem in the field provided by userspace, then
error EOVERFLOW will be issued.

Similarly, the getdents/readdir functions now pass the full 64-bit inode
number to userspace where possible, returning EOVERFLOW instead when a
directory entry is encountered that can't be properly represented.

Note that this means that some inodes will not be stat'able on a 32-bit
system with old libraries where they were before - but it does mean that
there will be no ambiguity over what a 32-bit inode number refers to.

Note similarly that directory scans may be cut short with an error on a
32-bit system with old libraries where the scan would work before for the
same reasons.

It is judged unlikely that this situation will occur because modern glibc
uses 64-bit capable versions of stat and getdents class functions
exclusively, and that older systems are unlikely to encounter
unrepresentable inode numbers anyway.

3f2e05e90e [PATCH] BLOCK: Revert patch to hack around undeclared sigset_t in linux/compat.h
Revert Andrew Morton's patch to temporarily hack around the lack of a
declaration of sigset_t in linux/compat.h to make the block-disablement
patches build on IA64.  This got accidentally pushed to Linus and should
be fixed in a different manner.

Also make linux/compat.h #include asm/signal.h to gain a definition of
sigset_t so that it can externally declare sigset_from_compat().

This has been compile-tested for i386, x86_64, ia64, mips, mips64, frv, ppc and
ppc64 and run-tested on frv.

1a657f78dc [PATCH] introduce get_task_pid() to fix unsafe get_pid()
proc_pid_make_inode:

	ei->pid = get_pid(task_pid(task));

I think this is not safe.  get_pid() can be preempted after checking "pid
!= NULL".  Then the task exits, does detach_pid(), and RCU frees the pid.
