2009-03-10SUNRPC: Tighten up the task locking rules in __rpc_execute()Trond Myklebust
We should probably not be testing any flags after we've cleared the RPC_TASK_RUNNING flag, since rpc_make_runnable() is then free to assign the rpc_task to another workqueue, which may then destroy it. We can fix any races with rpc_make_runnable() by ensuring that we only clear the RPC_TASK_RUNNING flag while holding the rpc_wait_queue->lock that the task is supposed to be sleeping on (and then checking whether or not the task really is sleeping).

2008-07-15SUNRPC: Remove the BKL from the callback functionsTrond Myklebust
Push it into those callback functions that actually need it. Note that all the NFS operations use their own locking, so don't need the BKL. Ditto for the rpcbind client. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

2008-03-14SUNRPC: Fix RPCAUTH_LOOKUP_ROOTCREDSTrond Myklebust
The current RPCAUTH_LOOKUP_ROOTCREDS flag only works for AUTH_SYS authentication, and then only as a special case in the code. This patch removes the auth_sys special casing, and replaces it with generic code. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

2008-02-28SUNRPC: Add a timer function to wait queues.Trond Myklebust
This is designed to replace the timeout timer in the individual rpc_tasks. By putting the timer function in the wait queue, we will eventually be able to reduce the total number of timers in use by the RPC subsystem. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

2008-02-25SUNRPC: Run rpc timeout functions as callbacks instead of in softirqsTrond Myklebust
An audit of the current RPC timeout functions shows that they don't really ever need to run in the softirq context. As long as the softirq is able to signal that the wakeup is due to a timeout (which it can do by setting task->tk_status to -ETIMEDOUT) then the callback functions can just run as standard task->tk_callback functions (in the rpciod/process context). The only possible border-line case would be xprt_timer() for the case of UDP, when the callback is used to reduce the size of the transport congestion window. In testing, however, the effect of moving that update to a callback would appear to be minor. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2008-02-25SUNRPC: Convert users of rpc_wake_up_task to use rpc_wake_up_queued_taskTrond Myklebust
Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2008-02-25SUNRPC: Add a new helper rpc_wake_up_queued_task()Trond Myklebust
In all cases where we currently use rpc_wake_up_task(), we almost always know on which waitqueue the rpc_task is actually sleeping. This will allows us to simplify the queue locking in a future patch. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2008-02-25SUNRPC: Clean up rpc_run_timer()Trond Myklebust
All RPC timeout callback functions are expected to wake the task up. We can enforce this by moving the wakeup back into rpc_run_timer. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2008-02-25SUNRPC: Allow the rpc_release() callback to be run on another workqueueTrond Myklebust
A lot of the work done by the rpc_release() callback is inappropriate for rpciod as it will often involve things like starting a new rpc call in order to clean up state after an interrupted NFSv4 open() call, or calls to mntput(), etc. This patch allows the caller of rpc_run_task() to specify that the rpc_release callback should run on a different workqueue than the default rpciod_workqueue.

2007-10-19Use helpers to obtain task pid in printksPavel Emelyanov
The task_struct->pid member is going to be deprecated, so start using the helpers (task_pid_nr/task_pid_vnr/task_pid_nr_ns) in the kernel. The first thing to start with is the pid, printed to dmesg - in this case we may safely use task_pid_nr(). Besides, printks produce more (much more) than a half of all the explicit pid usage.

2007-08-07SUNRPC: Fix a race in rpciod_down()Trond Myklebust
The commit 4ada539ed77c7a2bbcb75cafbbd7bd8d2b9bef7b lead to the unpleasant possibility of an asynchronous rpc_task being required to call rpciod_down() when it is complete. This again means that the rpciod workqueue may get to call destroy_workqueue on itself -> hang... Change rpciod_up/rpciod_down to just get/put the module, and then create/destroy the workqueues on module load/unload. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2007-07-20mm: Remove slab destructors from kmem_cache_create().Paul Mundt
Slab destructors were no longer supported after Christoph's c59def9f222d44bb7e2f0a559f2906191a0862d7 change. They've been BUGs for both slab and slub, and slob never supported them either. This rips out support for the dtor pointer from kmem_cache_create() completely and fixes up every single callsite in the kernel (there were about 224, not including the slab allocator definitions themselves, or the documentation references).

2007-04-30SUNRPC: Eliminate side effects from rpc_mallocChuck Lever
Currently rpc_malloc sets req->rq_buffer internally. Make this a more generic interface: return a pointer to the new buffer (or NULL) and make the caller set req->rq_buffer and req->rq_bufsize. This looks much more like kmalloc and eliminates the side effects. To fix a potential deadlock, this patch also replaces GFP_NOFS with GFP_NOWAIT in rpc_malloc. This prevents async RPCs from sleeping outside the RPC's task scheduler while allocating their buffer.
