e608e79f1b nfs41: call free slot from nfs4_restart_rpc
nfs41_sequence_free_slot can be called multiple times on SEQUENCE operation
errors.
No reason to inline nfs4_restart_rpc

Reported-by: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@netapp.com>

nfs_writeback_done and nfs_readpage_retry call nfs4_restart_rpc outside the
error handler, and the slot is not freed prior to restarting in the rpc_prepare
state during session reset.

Fix this by moving the call to nfs41_sequence_free_slot from the error
path of nfs41_sequence_done into nfs4_restart_rpc, and by removing the test
for NFS4CLNT_SESSION_SETUP.
Always free slot and goto the rpc prepare state on async errors.

44ed3556ba NFS4ERR_FILE_OPEN handling in Linux/NFS
NFS4ERR_FILE_OPEN is return by the server when an operation cannot be
performed because the file is currently open and local (to the server)
semantics prohibit the operation while the file is open.
A typical case is a RENAME operation on an MS-Windows platform, which
prevents rename while the file is open.

While it is possible that such a condition is transitory, it is also
very possible that the file will be held open for an extended period
of time thus preventing the operation.

The current behaviour of Linux/NFS is to retry the operation
indefinitely.  This is not appropriate - we do not expect a rename to
take an arbitrary amount of time to complete.

Rather, and error should be returned.  The most obvious error code
would be EBUSY, which is a legal at least for 'rename' and 'unlink',
and accurately captures the reason for the error.

This patch allows a few retries until about 2 seconds have elapsed,
then returns EBUSY.

caabea8a56 SUNRPC: Use soft connect semantics when performing RPC ping
Currently, if a remote RPC service is unreachable, an RPC ping will
hang until the underlying transport connect attempt times out.  A more
desirable behavior might be to have the ping fail immediately so upper
layers can recover appropriately.

In the case of an NFS mount, for instance, this would mean the
mount(2) system call could fail immediately if the server isn't
listening, rather than hanging uninterruptibly for more than 3
minutes.

Change rpc_ping() so that it fails immediately for connection-oriented
transports.  rpc_create() will then fail immediately for such
transports if an RPC ping was requested.

012da158f6 SUNRPC: Use soft connects for autobinding over TCP
Autobinding is handled by the rpciod process, not in user processes
that are generating regular RPC requests.  Thus autobinding is usually
not affected by signals targetting user processes, such as KILL or
timer expiration events.

In addition, an RPC request generated by a user process that has
RPC_TASK_SOFTCONN set and needs to perform an autobind will hang if
the remote rpcbind service is not available.

For rpcbind queries on connection-oriented transports, let's use the
new soft connect semantic to return control to the user's process
quickly, if the kernel's rpcbind client can't connect to the remote
rpcbind service.

Logic is introduced in call_bind_status() to handle connection errors
that occurred during an asynchronous rpcbind query.  The logic
abandons the rpcbind query if the RPC request has SOFTCONN set, and
retries after a few seconds in the normal case.

c526611dd6 SUNRPC: Use a cached RPC client and transport for rpcbind upcalls
The kernel's rpcbind client creates and deletes an rpc_clnt and its
underlying transport socket for every upcall to the local rpcbind
daemon.

When starting a typical NFS server on IPv4 and IPv6, the NFS service
itself does three upcalls (one per version) times two upcalls (one
per transport) times two upcalls (one per address family), making 12,
plus another one for the initial call to unregister previous NFS
services.  Starting the NLM service adds an additional 13 upcalls,
for similar reasons.

(Currently the NFS service doesn't start IPv6 listeners, but it will
soon enough).

Instead, let's create an rpc_clnt for rpcbind upcalls during the
first local rpcbind query, and cache it.  This saves the overhead of
creating and destroying an rpc_clnt and a socket for every upcall.

The new logic also prevents the kernel from attempting an RPCB_SET or
RPCB_UNSET if it knows from the start that the local portmapper does
not support rpcbind protocol version 4.  This will cut down on the
number of rpcbind upcalls in legacy environments.

09a21c4102 SUNRPC: Allow RPCs to fail quickly if the server is unreachable
The kernel sometimes makes RPC calls to services that aren't running.
Because the kernel's RPC client always assumes the hard retry semantic
when reconnecting a connection-oriented RPC transport, the underlying
reconnect logic takes a long while to time out, even though the remote
may have responded immediately with ECONNREFUSED.

In certain cases, like upcalls to our local rpcbind daemon, or for NFS
mount requests, we'd like the kernel to fail immediately if the remote
service isn't reachable.  This allows another transport to be tried
immediately, or the pending request can be abandoned quickly.

Introduce a per-request flag which controls how call_transmit_status()
behaves when request transmission fails because the server cannot be
reached.

We don't want soft connection semantics to apply to other errors.  The
default case of the switch statement in call_transmit_status() no
longer falls through; the fall through code is copied to the default
case, and a "break;" is added.

The transport's connection re-establishment timeout is also ignored for
such requests.  We want the request to fail immediately, so the
reconnect delay is skipped.  Additionally, we don't want a connect
failure here to further increase the reconnect timeout value, since
this request will not be retried.

206a134b4d SUNRPC: Check explicitly for tk_status == 0 in call_transmit_status()
The success case, where task->tk_status == 0, is by far the most
frequent case in call_transmit_status().

The default: arm of the switch statement in call_transmit_status()
handles the 0 case.  default: was moved close to the top of the switch
statement in call_transmit_status() under the theory that the compiler
places object code for the earliest arms of a switch statement first,
making the CPU do less work.

The default: arm of a switch statement, however, is executed only
after all the other cases have been checked.  Even if the compiler
rearranges the object code, the default: arm is the "last resort",
meaning all of the other cases have been explicitly exhausted.  That
makes the current arrangement about as inefficient as it gets for the
common case.

To fix this, add an explicit check for zero before the switch
statement.  That forces the compiler to do the zero check first, no
matter what optimizations it might try to do to the switch statement.

dd47f96c07 NFS: Revert default r/wsize behavior
When the "rsize=" or "wsize=" mount options are not specified,
text-based mounts have slightly different behavior than legacy binary
mounts.  Text-based mounts use the smaller of the server's maximum
and the client's maximum, but binary mounts use the smaller of the
server's _preferred_ size and the client's maximum.

This difference is actually pretty subtle.  Most servers advertise
the same value as their maximum and their preferred transfer size, so
the end result is the same in most cases.

The reason for this difference is that for text-based mounts, if
r/wsize are not specified, they are set to the largest value supported
by the client.  For legacy mounts, the values are set to zero if these
options are not specified.

nfs_server_set_fsinfo() can negotiate the transfer size defaults
correctly in any case.  There's no need to specify any particular
value as default in the text-based option parsing logic.

Note that nfs4 doesn't use nfs_server_set_fsinfo(), but the mount.nfs4
command does set rsize and wsize to 0 if the user didn't specify these
options.  So, make the same change for text-based NFSv4 mounts.

Thanks to James Pearson <james-p@moving-picture.com> for reporting and
diagnosing the problem.

ee671b016f NFS: convert proto= option to use netids rather than a protoname
Solaris uses netids as values for the proto= option, so that when
someone specifies "tcp6" they get traffic over TCP + IPv6. Until
recently, this has never really been an issue for Linux since it didn't
support NFS over IPv6. The netid and the protocol name were generally
always the same (modulo any strange configuration in /etc/netconfig).

The solaris manpage documents their proto= option as:

    proto= _netid_ | rdma

This patch is intended to bring Linux closer to how the Solaris proto=
option works, by declaring a static netid mapping in the kernel and
converting the proto= and mountproto= options to follow it and display
the proper values in /proc/mounts.

Much of this functionality will need to be provided by a userspace
mount.nfs patch. Chuck Lever has a patch to change mount.nfs in
the same way. In principle, we could do *all* of this in userspace but
that would mean that the options in /proc/mounts may not match the
options used by userspace.

The alternative to the static mapping here is to add a mechanism to
upcall to userspace for netid's. I'm not opposed to that option, but
it'll probably mean more overhead (and quite a bit more code). Rather
than shoot for that at first, I figured it was probably better to
start simply.

Comments welcome.

049e2d13b8 Input: i8042 - add Dell Vostro 1320, 1520 and 1720 to the reset list
These laptops often leave i8042 in a wierd state resulting in non-
operational touchpad and keyboard.

f066a4f6df param: don't complain about unused module parameters.
Jon confirms that recent modprobe will look in /proc/cmdline, so these
cmdline options can still be used.

35dead4235 modules: don't export section names of empty sections via sysfs
On the parisc architecture we face for each and every loaded kernel module
this kernel "badness warning":
  sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/module/ac97_bus/sections/.text'
  Badness at fs/sysfs/dir.c:487

Reason for that is, that on parisc all kernel modules do have multiple
.text sections due to the usage of the -ffunction-sections compiler flag
which is needed to reach all jump targets on this platform.

An objdump on such a kernel module gives:
Sections:
Idx Name          Size      VMA       LMA       File off  Algn
  0 .note.gnu.build-id 00000024  00000000  00000000  00000034  2**2
                  CONTENTS, ALLOC, LOAD, READONLY, DATA
  1 .text         00000000  00000000  00000000  00000058  2**0
                  CONTENTS, ALLOC, LOAD, READONLY, CODE
  2 .text.ac97_bus_match 0000001c  00000000  00000000  00000058  2**2
                  CONTENTS, ALLOC, LOAD, READONLY, CODE
  3 .text         00000000  00000000  00000000  000000d4  2**0
                  CONTENTS, ALLOC, LOAD, READONLY, CODE
...
Since the .text sections are empty (size of 0 bytes) and won't be
loaded by the kernel module loader anyway, I don't see a reason
why such sections need to be listed under
/sys/module/<module_name>/sections/<section_name> either.

The attached patch does solve this issue by not exporting section
names which are empty.

This fixes bugzilla http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14703
