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.

SUNRPC: Change the default limit to the number of TCP slots

2012-02-06T23:47:35+00:00

Since the scheme of limiting the number of TCP slots to whatever will
fit in the current TCP window seems to be working well (Andy reports
getting within 20% of the 'iperf' send performance on a 10GigE link)
we should just let that be the default mode of operation.

Users may still set their own limits using the tcp_max_slot_table_entries
parameter if they need to.

SUNRPC: Ensure that we grab the XPRT_LOCK before calling xprt_alloc_slot

2011-07-17T20:01:03+00:00

This throttles the allocation of new slots when the socket is busy
reconnecting and/or is out of buffer space.

SUNRPC: sunrpc should not explicitly depend on NFS config options

2011-07-15T13:12:23+00:00

Change explicit references to CONFIG_NFS_V4_1 to implicit ones
Get rid of the unnecessary defines in backchannel_rqst.c and
bc_svc.c: the Makefile takes care of those dependency.

SUNRPC: Support for RPC over AF_LOCAL transports

2011-05-27T21:42:47+00:00

TI-RPC introduces the capability of performing RPC over AF_LOCAL
sockets.  It uses this mainly for registering and unregistering
local RPC services securely with the local rpcbind, but we could
also conceivably use it as a generic upcall mechanism.

This patch provides a client-side only implementation for the moment.
We might also consider a server-side implementation to provide
AF_LOCAL access to NLM (for statd downcalls, and such like).

Autobinding is not supported on kernel AF_LOCAL transports at this
time.  Kernel ULPs must specify the pathname of the remote endpoint
when an AF_LOCAL transport is created.  rpcbind supports registering
services available via AF_LOCAL, so the kernel could handle it with
some adjustment to ->rpcbind and ->set_port.  But we don't need this
feature for doing upcalls via well-known named sockets.

This has not been tested with ULPs that move a substantial amount of
data.  Thus, I can't attest to how robust the write_space and
congestion management logic is.
