      NFS: avoid deadlocks with loop-back mounted NFS filesystems. · 95905446
      由 NeilBrown 提交于 
      Support for loop-back mounted NFS filesystems is useful when NFS is
used to access shared storage in a high-availability cluster.

If the node running the NFS server fails, some other node can mount the
filesystem and start providing NFS service.  If that node already had
the filesystem NFS mounted, it will now have it loop-back mounted.

nfsd can suffer a deadlock when allocating memory and entering direct
reclaim.
While direct reclaim does not write to the NFS filesystem it can send
and wait for a COMMIT through nfs_release_page().

This patch modifies nfs_release_page() to wait a limited time for the
commit to complete - one second.  If the commit doesn't complete
in this time, nfs_release_page() will fail.  This means it might now
fail in some cases where it wouldn't before.  These cases are only
when 'gfp' includes '__GFP_WAIT'.

nfs_release_page() is only called by try_to_release_page(), and that
can only be called on an NFS page with required 'gfp' flags from
 - page_cache_pipe_buf_steal() in splice.c
 - shrink_page_list() in vmscan.c
 - invalidate_inode_pages2_range() in truncate.c

The first two handle failure quite safely.  The last is only called
after ->launder_page() has been called, and that will have waited
for the commit to finish already.

So aborting if the commit takes longer than 1 second is perfectly safe.

      NFS: don't use STABLE writes during writeback. · e87b4c7a
      由 NeilBrown 提交于 
      commit b31268ac
  FS: Use stable writes when not doing a bulk flush

was a bit heavy handed.
The particular problem that lead to this patch was that
small writes to an O_SYNC file we being written as UNSTABLE writes
followed by a commit.
This is appropriate for large writes (which require multiple NFS
requests) but for small writes (single NFS request), using
NFS_FILE_SYNC is more efficient.

So that patch causes the code to select between the two methods
depending on how many nfs requests get generated.

Unfortunately this ends up applying to non O_SYNC writes as well.
In particular if you memory-map a file and update random pages, then
when they are eventually written out by writeback they will go as
NFS_FILE_SYNC.  This is inefficient and slows down the application.

So: only set FLUSH_COND_STABLE when wbc->sync_mode is WB_SYNC_ALL.
With this patch:
 O_SYNC writes are NFS_FILE_SYNC for single requests, and NFS_UNSTABLE
    followed by COMMIT for multiple requests
 Writing immediately before close of fsync follow the same pattern.
 Non-O_SYNC writes without an fsync of close eventually get flushed
 out as UNSTABLE and a commit follows eventually as appropriate.

      sched: Remove proliferation of wait_on_bit() action functions · 74316201
      由 NeilBrown 提交于 
      The current "wait_on_bit" interface requires an 'action'
function to be provided which does the actual waiting.
There are over 20 such functions, many of them identical.
Most cases can be satisfied by one of just two functions, one
which uses io_schedule() and one which just uses schedule().

So:
 Rename wait_on_bit and        wait_on_bit_lock to
        wait_on_bit_action and wait_on_bit_lock_action
 to make it explicit that they need an action function.

 Introduce new wait_on_bit{,_lock} and wait_on_bit{,_lock}_io
 which are *not* given an action function but implicitly use
 a standard one.
 The decision to error-out if a signal is pending is now made
 based on the 'mode' argument rather than being encoded in the action
 function.

 All instances of the old wait_on_bit and wait_on_bit_lock which
 can use the new version have been changed accordingly and their
 action functions have been discarded.
 wait_on_bit{_lock} does not return any specific error code in the
 event of a signal so the caller must check for non-zero and
 interpolate their own error code as appropriate.

The wait_on_bit() call in __fscache_wait_on_invalidate() was
ambiguous as it specified TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE but used
fscache_wait_bit_interruptible as an action function.
David Howells confirms this should be uniformly
"uninterruptible"

The main remaining user of wait_on_bit{,_lock}_action is NFS
which needs to use a freezer-aware schedule() call.

A comment in fs/gfs2/glock.c notes that having multiple 'action'
functions is useful as they display differently in the 'wchan'
field of 'ps'. (and /proc/$PID/wchan).
As the new bit_wait{,_io} functions are tagged "__sched", they
will not show up at all, but something higher in the stack.  So
the distinction will still be visible, only with different
function names (gds2_glock_wait versus gfs2_glock_dq_wait in the
gfs2/glock.c case).

Since first version of this patch (against 3.15) two new action
functions appeared, on in NFS and one in CIFS.  CIFS also now
uses an action function that makes the same freezer aware
schedule call as NFS.
