2006-01-06NFSv4: Ensure DELEGRETURN returns attributesTrond Myklebust
Upon return of a write delegation, the server will almost always bump the change attribute. Ensure that we pick up that change so that we don't invalidate our data cache unnecessarily. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2006-01-06NFSv4: Ensure change attribute returned by GETATTR callback conforms to specTrond Myklebust
According to RFC3530 we're supposed to cache the change attribute at the time the client receives a write delegation. If the inode is clean, a CB_GETATTR callback by the server to the client is supposed to return the cached change attribute. If, OTOH, the inode is dirty, the client should bump the cached change attribute by 1. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

2006-01-06NFS: Make stat() return updated mtimes after a write()Trond Myklebust
The SuS states that a call to write() will cause mtime to be updated on the file. In order to satisfy that requirement, we need to flush out any cached writes in nfs_getattr(). Speed things up slightly by not committing the writes. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

2006-01-06NFS: support large reads and writes on the wireChuck Lever
Most NFS server implementations allow up to 64KB reads and writes on the wire. The Solaris NFS server allows up to a megabyte, for instance. Now the Linux NFS client supports transfer sizes up to 1MB, too. This will help reduce protocol and context switch overhead on read/write intensive NFS workloads, and support larger atomic read and write operations on servers that support them. Test-plan: Connectathon and iozone on mount point with wsize=rsize>32768 over TCP. Tests with NFS over UDP to verify the maximum RPC payload size cap.

2006-01-06NFS: make "inode number mismatch" message more usefulChuck Lever
To help NFS users and server developers, make the "inode number mismatch" message display more useful information. Test-plan: None. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <cel@netapp.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2006-01-06NFS: get rid of useless kernel log messageChuck Lever
nfs_statfs() generates a log message when GETATTR returns an error. This is usually a useless message. Make it a dprintk. Test plan: None Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <cel@netapp.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2006-01-06NFS: simplify inlined bit ops in nfs_page.hChuck Lever
Minor cleanup: inlined bit ops in nfs_page.h can be simpler. Test plan: Write-intensive workload against a server that requires COMMITs. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <cel@netapp.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2006-01-06NFS: Fix error recovery code in fs/nfs/inode.c:__init_nfs()Chuck Lever
Red Hat found a problem in the error recovery logic in __init_nfs. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <cel@netapp.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2006-01-06NFS: use generic_write_checks() to sanity check direct writesChuck Lever
Replace ad hoc write parameter sanity checking in nfs_file_direct_write() with a call to generic_write_checks(). This should make the proper checks modulo the O_LARGEFILE flag, and should catch NFSv2-specific limitations by virtue of i_sb->s_maxbytes. Test plan: Posix compliance testing with both NFSv2 and NFSv3. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <cel@netapp.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2006-01-06NFSv4: Remove requirement for machine creds for the "setclientid" operationTrond Myklebust
Use a cred from the nfs4_client->cl_state_owners list. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2006-01-06NFSv4: Remove requirement for machine creds for the "renew" operationTrond Myklebust
In RFC3530, the RENEW operation is allowed to use either the same principal, RPC security flavour and (if RPCSEC_GSS), the same mechanism and service that was used for SETCLIENTID_CONFIRM OR Any principal, RPC security flavour and service combination that currently has an OPEN file on the server. Choose the latter since that doesn't require us to keep credentials for the same principal for the entire duration of the mount. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

2006-01-06NFSv4: Make open recovery track O_RDWR, O_RDONLY and O_WRONLY correctlyTrond Myklebust
When recovering from a delegation recall or a network partition, we need to replay open(O_RDWR), open(O_RDONLY) and open(O_WRONLY) separately. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2006-01-06NFSv4: Make nfs4_state track O_RDWR, O_RDONLY and O_WRONLY separatelyTrond Myklebust
A closer reading of RFC3530 reveals that OPEN_DOWNGRADE must always specify a access modes that have been the argument of a previous OPEN operation. IOW: doing OPEN(O_RDWR) and then OPEN_DOWNGRADE(O_WRONLY) is forbidden unless the user called OPEN(O_WRONLY) In order to fix that, we really need to track the three possible open states separately.

2006-01-06NFSv4: Convert open() into an asynchronous RPC callTrond Myklebust
OPEN is a stateful operation, so we must ensure that it always completes. In order to allow users to interrupt the operation, we need to make the RPC call asynchronous, and then wait on completion (or cancel). Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2006-01-06NFSv4: stateful NFSv4 RPC call interfaceTrond Myklebust
The NFSv4 model requires us to complete all RPC calls that might establish state on the server whether or not the user wants to interrupt it. We may also need to schedule new work (including new RPC calls) in order to cancel the new state. The asynchronous RPC model will allow us to ensure that RPC calls always complete, but in order to allow for "synchronous" RPC, we want to add the ability to wait for completion. The waits are, of course, interruptible. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

2006-01-06RPC: Clean up RPC task structureTrond Myklebust
Shrink the RPC task structure. Instead of storing separate pointers for task->tk_exit and task->tk_release, put them in a structure. Also pass the user data pointer as a parameter instead of passing it via task->tk_calldata. This enables us to nest callbacks. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

2006-01-06NFS: Work correctly with single-page ->writepage() callsTrond Myklebust
Ensure that we always initiate flushing of data before we exit a single-page ->writepage() call. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2006-01-06identify multipage ->writepages() callsAndrew Morton
NFS needs to be able to distinguish between single-page ->writepage() calls and multipage ->writepages() calls. For the single-page writepage calls NFS can kick off the I/O within the context of ->writepage(). For multipage ->writepages calls, nfs_writepage() will leave the I/O pending and nfs_writepages() will kick off the I/O when it all has been queued up within NFS.

2006-01-06kbuild: Use git in scripts/setlocalversionRene Scharfe
Currently scripts/setlocalversion is a Perl script that tries to figure out the current git commit ID of a repo without using git. It also imports Digest::MD5 without using it and generally is too big for the small task it does. :] And it always reports a git ID, even when the HEAD is tagged -- this is a bug. This patch replaces it with a Bourne Shell script that uses git commands to do the same. I can't come up with a scenario where someone would use a git repo and refuse to install git core at the same time, so I think it's reasonable to assume git is available. The new script also reports uncommitted changes by adding -git_dirty to the version string. Obviously you can't see from that _what_ has been changed from the last commit, so it's more of a reminder that you forgot to commit something. The script is easily extensible: simply add a check for Mercurial (or whatever) below the git check. Note: the script doesn't print a newline char anymore. That's only because it was easier to implement it that way, not a feature (or bug). 'make kernelrelease' doesn't care.

2006-01-06x86: remove bogus 'pci=usepirqmask' suggestion when no irq is definedLinus Torvalds
This was harmless, but for the case of a device that had no irq pre-defined we would incorrectly suggest that "usepirqmask" might make a difference. It never would, and the message was just confusing people. Reported in the dmesg of Etienne Lorrain. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2006-01-06[PATCH] Suspend support for libataJens Axboe
This patch adds suspend patch to libata, and ata_piix in particular. For most low level drivers, they should just need to add the 4 hooks to work. As I can only test ata_piix, I didn't enable it for more though. Suspend support is the single most important feature on a notebook, and most new notebooks have sata drives. It's quite embarrassing that we _still_ do not support this. Right now, it's perfectly possible to suspend the drive in mid-transfer.
