SUNRPC: allow disabling idle timeout

2013-04-26T15:41:26+00:00

In the gss-proxy case we don't want to have to reconnect at random--we
want to connect only on gss-proxy startup when we can steal gss-proxy's
context to do the connect in the right namespace.

So, provide a flag that allows the rpc_create caller to turn off the
idle timeout.

SUNRPC: Allow rpc_create() to request that TCP slots be unlimited

2013-04-14T16:26:03+00:00

This is mainly for use by NFSv4.1, where the session negotiation
ultimately wants to decide how many RPC slots we can fill.

SUNRPC: Fix a livelock problem in the xprt->backlog queue

2013-04-14T16:26:02+00:00

This patch ensures that we throttle new RPC requests if there are
requests already waiting in the xprt->backlog queue. The reason for
doing this is to fix livelock issues that can occur when an existing
(high priority) task is waiting in the backlog queue, gets woken up
by xprt_free_slot(), but a new task then steals the slot.

SUNRPC: Pass a pointer to struct rpc_xprt to the connect callback

2013-02-01T15:13:47+00:00

Avoid another RCU dereference by passing the pointer to struct rpc_xprt
from the caller.

SUNRPC: Get rid of the redundant xprt->shutdown bit field

2012-09-28T20:03:05+00:00

It is only set after everyone has dereferenced the transport,
and serves no useful purpose: setting it is racy, so all the
socket code, etc still needs to be able to cope with the cases
where they miss reading it.

SUNRPC: Fix a UDP transport regression

2012-09-07T15:43:49+00:00

Commit 43cedbf0e8dfb9c5610eb7985d5f21263e313802 (SUNRPC: Ensure that
we grab the XPRT_LOCK before calling xprt_alloc_slot) is causing
hangs in the case of NFS over UDP mounts.

Since neither the UDP or the RDMA transport mechanism use dynamic slot
allocation, we can skip grabbing the socket lock for those transports.
Add a new rpc_xprt_op to allow switching between the TCP and UDP/RDMA
case.

Note that the NFSv4.1 back channel assigns the slot directly
through rpc_run_bc_task, so we can ignore that case.

nfs: enable swap on NFS

2012-08-01T01:42:48+00:00

Implement the new swapfile a_ops for NFS and hook up ->direct_IO.  This
will set the NFS socket to SOCK_MEMALLOC and run socket reconnect under
PF_MEMALLOC as well as reset SOCK_MEMALLOC before engaging the protocol
->connect() method.

PF_MEMALLOC should allow the allocation of struct socket and related
objects and the early (re)setting of SOCK_MEMALLOC should allow us to
receive the packets required for the TCP connection buildup.

SUNRPC: Move clnt->cl_server into struct rpc_xprt

2012-03-02T20:36:41+00:00

When the cl_xprt field is updated, the cl_server field will also have
to change.  Since the contents of cl_server follow the remote endpoint
of cl_xprt, just move that field to the rpc_xprt.

SUNRPC: add sending,pending queue and max slot to xprt stats

2012-02-16T19:55:27+00:00

With static RPC slots, the xprt backlog queue stats were useful in showing
when the transport (TCP) was starved by lack of RPC slots. The new dynamic
RPC slot code, commit d9ba131d8f58c0d2ff5029e7002ab43f913b36f9, always
provides an RPC slot and so only uses the xprt backlog queue when the
tcp_max_slot_table_entries value has been hit or when an allocation error
occurs. All requests are now placed on the xprt sending or pending queue which
need to be monitored for debugging.

The max_slot stat shows the maximum number of dynamic RPC slots reached which is
useful when debugging performance issues.

Add the new fields at the end of the mountstats xprt stanza so that mountstats
outputs the previous correct values and ignores the new fields. Bump
NFS_IOSTATS_VERS.
