      NFS: Cache state owners after files are closed · 0aaaf5c4
      Chuck Lever 提交于
      Servers have a finite amount of memory to store NFSv4 open and lock
      owners.  Moreover, servers may have a difficult time determining when
      they can reap their state owner table, thanks to gray areas in the
      NFSv4 protocol specification.  Thus clients should be careful to reuse
      state owners when possible.
      
      Currently Linux is not too careful.  When a user has closed all her
      files on one mount point, the state owner's reference count goes to
      zero, and it is released.  The next OPEN allocates a new one.  A
      workload that serially opens and closes files can run through a large
      number of open owners this way.
      
      When a state owner's reference count goes to zero, slap it onto a free
      list for that nfs_server, with an expiry time.  Garbage collect before
      looking for a state owner.  This makes state owners for active users
      available for re-use.
      
      Now that there can be unused state owners remaining at umount time,
      purge the state owner free list when a server is destroyed.  Also be
      sure not to reclaim unused state owners during state recovery.
      
      This change has benefits for the client as well.  For some workloads,
      this approach drops the number of OPEN_CONFIRM calls from the same as
      the number of OPEN calls, down to just one.  This reduces wire traffic
      and thus open(2) latency.  Before this patch, untarring a kernel
      source tarball shows the OPEN_CONFIRM call counter steadily increasing
      through the test.  With the patch, the OPEN_CONFIRM count remains at 1
      throughout the entire untar.
      
      As long as the expiry time is kept short, I don't think garbage
      collection should be terribly expensive, although it does bounce the
      clp->cl_lock around a bit.
      
      [ At some point we should rationalize the use of the nfs_server
      ->destroy method. ]

      NFSv4: fix delegated locking · 0df5dd4a
      Trond Myklebust 提交于
      Arnaud Giersch reports that NFSv4 locking is broken when we hold a
      delegation since commit 8e469ebd (NFSv4:
      Don't allow posix locking against servers that don't support it).
      
      According to Arnaud, the lock succeeds the first time he opens the file
      (since we cannot do a delegated open) but then fails after we start using
      delegated opens.
      
      The following patch fixes it by ensuring that locking behaviour is
      governed by a per-filesystem capability flag that is initially set, but
      gets cleared if the server ever returns an OPEN without the
      NFS4_OPEN_RESULT_LOCKTYPE_POSIX flag being set.

      percpu: add __percpu sparse annotations to fs · 003cb608
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Add __percpu sparse annotations to fs.
      
      These annotations are to make sparse consider percpu variables to be
      in a different address space and warn if accessed without going
      through percpu accessors.  This patch doesn't affect normal builds.
