nfsd defines a type 'encode_dent_fn' which is much like 'filldir_t' except that the first pointer is 'struct readdir_cd *' rather than 'void *'. It then casts encode_dent_fn points to 'filldir_t' as needed. This hides any other type mismatches between the two such as the fact that the 'ino' arg recently changed from ino_t to u64. So: get rid of 'encode_dent_fn', get rid of the cast of the function type, change the first arg of various functions from 'struct readdir_cd *' to 'void *', and live with the fact that we have a little less type checking on the calling of these functions now. Less internal (to nfsd) checking offset by more external checking, which is more important. Thanks to Gabriel Paubert <paubert@iram.es> for discovering this and providing an initial patch.

NFS V3 (and V4) support exclusive create by passing a 'cookie' which can get stored with the file. If the file exists but has exactly the right cookie stored, then we assume this is a retransmit and the exclusive create was successful. The cookie is 64bits and is traditionally stored in the mtime and atime fields. This causes a problem with Solaris7 as negative mtime or atime confuse it. So we moved two bits into the mode word instead. But inherited ACLs sometimes overwrite the mode word on create, so this is a problem. So we give up and just store 62 of the 64 bits and assume that is close enough.

NFSd assumes that largest number of pages that will be needed for a request+response is 2+N where N pages is the size of the largest permitted read/write request. The '2' are 1 for the non-data part of the request, and 1 for the non-data part of the reply. However, when a read request is not page-aligned, and we choose to use ->sendfile to send it directly from the page cache, we may need N+1 pages to hold the whole reply. This can overflow and array and cause an Oops. This patch increases size of the array for holding pages by one and makes sure that entry is NULL when it is not in use.

To avoid tying up server threads when nfsd makes an upcall (to mountd, to get export options, to idmapd, for nfsv4 name<->id mapping, etc.), we temporarily "drop" the request and save enough information so that we can revisit it later. Certain failures during the deferral process can cause us to really drop the request and never revisit it. This is often less than ideal, and is unacceptable in the NFSv4 case--rfc 3530 forbids the server from dropping a request without also closing the connection. As a first step, we modify the deferral code to return -ETIMEDOUT (which is translated to nfserr_jukebox in the v3 and v4 cases, and remains a drop in the v2 case). Signed-off-by: NJ.

Commit 6264d69d modified the nfsd_create() error handling in such a way that nfsd_create will usually return nfserr_perm even when succesful, if the export has the async export option. This introduced a regression that could cause mkdir() to always return a permissions error, even though the directory in question was actually succesfully created. Signed-off-by: NJ.

In the case where an open creates the file, we shouldn't be rechecking permissions to open the file; the open succeeds regardless of what the new file's mode bits say.

Make the nfsd read-ahead params cache more SMP-friendly by changing the single global list and lock into a fixed 16-bucket hashtable with per-bucket locks. This reduces spinlock contention in nfsd_read() on read-heavy workloads on multiprocessor servers. Testing was on a 4 CPU 4 NIC Altix using 4 IRIX clients each doing 1K streaming reads at full line rate. The server had 128 nfsd threads, which sizes the RA cache at 256 entries, of which only a handful were used. Flat profiling shows nfsd_read(), including the inlined nfsd_get_raparms(), taking 10.4% of each CPU. This patch drops the contribution from nfsd() to 1.71% for each CPU.

We are planning to increase RPCSVC_MAXPAGES from about 8 to about 256. This means we need to be a bit careful about arrays of size RPCSVC_MAXPAGES. struct svc_rqst contains two such arrays. However the there are never more that RPCSVC_MAXPAGES pages in the two arrays together, so only one array is needed. The two arrays are for the pages holding the request, and the pages holding the reply. Instead of two arrays, we can simply keep an index into where the first reply page is. This patch also removes a number of small inline functions that probably server to obscure what is going on rather than clarify it, and opencode the needed functionality. Also remove the 'rq_restailpage' variable as it is *always* 0. i.e. if the response 'xdr' structure has a non-empty tail it is always in the same pages as the head. check counters are initilised and incr properly check for consistant usage of ++ etc maybe extra some inlines for common approach general review Signed-off-by: NNeil Brown <neilb@suse.de> Cc: Magnus Maatta <novell@kiruna.se> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

Give the statfs superblock operation a dentry pointer rather than a superblock pointer. This complements the get_sb() patch. That reduced the significance of sb->s_root, allowing NFS to place a fake root there. However, NFS does require a dentry to use as a target for the statfs operation. This permits the root in the vfsmount to be used instead. linux/mount.h has been added where necessary to make allyesconfig build successfully.

We should be using the length from the second vfs_getxattr, in case it changed. (Note: there's still a small race here; we could end up returning -ENOMEM if the length increased between the first and second call. I don't know whether it's worth spending a lot of effort to fix that.) This makes XFS ACLs usable on NFS exports, which they currently aren't, since XFS appears to be returning a too-large value for vfs_getxattr() when it's passed a NULL buffer. So there's probably an XFS bug here too, though since getxattr with a NULL buffer is usually used to decide how much memory to allocate, it may be a fairly harmless bug in most cases.

A typical nfsd call trace is nfsd -> svc_process -> nfsd_dispatch -> nfsd3_proc_write -> nfsd_write ->nfsd_vfs_write -> vfs_writev These add up to over 300 bytes on the stack. Looking at each of these, I see that nfsd_write (which includes nfsd_vfs_write) contributes 0x8c to stack usage itself!! It turns out this is because it puts a 'struct iattr' on the stack so it can kill suid if needed. The following patch saves about 50 bytes off the stack in this call path.

This patch cleans up most of the offences, which involves moving the call to vfs_getattr out of the xdr encoding routines (where it is too late to report an error) into the main NFS procedure handling routines.

inotify is intended to correct the deficiencies of dnotify, particularly its inability to scale and its terrible user interface: * dnotify requires the opening of one fd per each directory that you intend to watch. This quickly results in too many open files and pins removable media, preventing unmount. * dnotify is directory-based. You only learn about changes to directories. Sure, a change to a file in a directory affects the directory, but you are then forced to keep a cache of stat structures. * dnotify's interface to user-space is awful. Signals? inotify provides a more usable, simple, powerful solution to file change notification: * inotify's interface is a system call that returns a fd, not SIGIO. You get a single fd, which is select()-able. * inotify has an event that says "the filesystem that the item you were watching is on was unmounted." * inotify can watch directories or files. Inotify is currently used by Beagle (a desktop search infrastructure), Gamin (a FAM replacement), and other projects. See Documentation/filesystems/inotify.txt.

We need to fsync the recovery directory after writing to it, but we weren't doing this correctly. (For example, we weren't taking the i_sem when calling ->fsync().) Just reuse the existing nfsd fsync code instead. Signed-off-by: NJ.

This adds functions for encoding and decoding POSIX ACLs for the NFSACL protocol extension, and the GETACL and SETACL RPCs. The implementation is compatible with NFSACL in Solaris.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
