* [SCSI] block: make blk_rq_map_user take a NULL user-space buffer for WRITEFUJITA Tomonori2009-01-021-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The commit 818827669d85b84241696ffef2de485db46b0b5e (block: make blk_rq_map_user take a NULL user-space buffer) extended blk_rq_map_user to accept a NULL user-space buffer with a READ command. It was necessary to convert sg to use the block layer mapping API. This patch extends blk_rq_map_user again for a WRITE command. It is necessary to convert st and osst drivers to use the block layer apping API.

* [SCSI] block: fix the partial mappings with struct rq_map_dataFUJITA Tomonori2009-01-021-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes bio_copy_user_iov to properly handle the partial mappings with struct rq_map_data (which only sg uses for now but st and osst will shortly). It adds the offset member to struct rq_map_data and changes blk_rq_map_user to update it so that bio_copy_user_iov can add an appropriate page frame via bio_add_pc_page().

| * nfsd/create race fixes, infrastructureAl Viro2009-01-011-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | new helpers - insert_inode_locked() and insert_inode_locked4(). Hash new inode, making sure that there's no such inode in icache already. If there is and it does not end up unhashed (as would happen if we have nfsd trying to resolve a bogus fhandle), fail. Otherwise insert our inode into hash and succeed. In either case have i_state set to new+locked; cleanup ends up being simpler with such calling conventions. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove the hopelessly misguided ->dir_notify(). The only instance (cifs) has been broken by design from the very beginning; the objects it creates are never destroyed, keep references to struct file they can outlive, nothing that could possibly evict them exists on close(2) path *and* no locking whatsoever is done to prevent races with close(), should the previous, er, deficiencies someday be dealt with.

| * shrink struct dentryNick Piggin2009-01-011-7/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | struct dentry is one of the most critical structures in the kernel. So it's sad to see it going neglected. With CONFIG_PROFILING turned on (which is probably the common case at least for distros and kernel developers), sizeof(struct dcache) == 208 here (64-bit). This gives 19 objects per slab. I packed d_mounted into a hole, and took another 4 bytes off the inline name length to take the padding out from the end of the structure. This shinks it to 200 bytes. I could have gone the other way and increased the length to 40, but I'm aiming for a magic number, read on... I then got rid of the d_cookie pointer. This shrinks it to 192 bytes. Rant: why was this ever a good idea? The cookie system should increase its hash size or use a tree or something if lookups are a problem. Also the "fast dcookie lookups" in oprofile should be moved into the dcookie code -- how can oprofile possibly care about the dcookie_mutex? It gets dropped after get_dcookie() returns so it can't be providing any sort of protection. At 192 bytes, 21 objects fit into a 4K page, saving about 3MB on my system with ~140 000 entries allocated. 192 is also a multiple of 64, so we get nice cacheline alignment on 64 and 32 byte line systems -- any given dentry will now require 3 cachelines to touch all fields wheras previously it would require 4. I know the inline name size was chosen quite carefully, however with the reduction in cacheline footprint, it should actually be just about as fast to do a name lookup for a 36 character name as it was before the patch (and faster for other sizes). The memory footprint savings for names which are <= 32 or > 36 bytes long should more than make up for the memory cost for 33-36 byte names. Performance is a feature...

This means that we need initialise a struct inode from a context outside alloc_inode() as it is no longer used by XFS. After inode allocation and initialisation, we need to add the inode to the superblock list, the in-use list, hash it and do some accounting. This all needs to be done with the inode_lock held and there are already several places in fs/inode.c that do this list manipulation.

To simplify upgrades, as well as testing and debugging, it will help if we can upgrade gssd (to a version which understands the new upcall) without having to choose at boot (or module-load) time whether we want the new or the old upcall. We will do this by providing two different pipes: one named, as currently, after the mechanism (normally "krb5"), and supporting the old upcall. One named "gssd" and supporting the new upcall version. We allow gssd to indicate which version it supports by its choice of which pipe to open. As we have no interest in supporting *simultaneous* use of both versions, we'll forbid opening both pipes at the same time. So, add a new pipe_open callback to the rpc_pipefs api, which the gss code can use to track which pipes have been open, and to refuse opens of incompatible pipes. We only need this to be called on the first open of a given pipe. Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@citi.umich.edu> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

I've been looking at a bugzilla which describes a problem where a customer was advised to use either the "noac" or "actimeo=0" mount options to solve a consistency problem that they were seeing in the file attributes. It turned out that this solution did not work reliably for them because sometimes, the local attribute cache was believed to be valid and not timed out. (With an attribute cache timeout of 0, the cache should always appear to be timed out.) In looking at this situation, it appears to me that the problem is that the attribute cache timeout code has an off-by-one error in it. It is assuming that the cache is valid in the region, [read_cache_jiffies, read_cache_jiffies + attrtimeo]. The cache should be considered valid only in the region, [read_cache_jiffies, read_cache_jiffies + attrtimeo). With this change, the options, "noac" and "actimeo=0", work as originally expected. This problem was previously addressed by special casing the attrtimeo == 0 case. However, since the problem is only an off- by-one error, the cleaner solution is address the off-by-one error and thus, not require the special case.

An NFS client connects to NFS servers via a privileged source port and a fixed standard destination port (2049). The client sends raw uid and gid numbers to identify users making NFS requests, and the server assumes an appropriate authority on the client has vetted these values because the source port is privileged. On Linux, by default in-kernel RPC services use a privileged port in the range between 650 and 1023 to avoid using source ports of well- known IP services. Using such a small range limits the number of NFS mount points and the number of unique NFS servers to which a client can connect concurrently. An NFS client can use unprivileged source ports to expand the range of source port numbers, allowing more concurrent server connections and more NFS mount points. Servers must explicitly allow NFS connections from unprivileged ports for this to work. In the past, bumping the value of the sunrpc.max_resvport sysctl on the client would permit the NFS client to use unprivileged ports. Bumping this setting also changes the maximum port number used by other in-kernel RPC services, some of which still required a port number less than 1023. This is exacerbated by the way source port numbers are chosen by the Linux RPC client, which starts at the top of the range and works downwards. It means that bumping the maximum means all RPC services requesting a source port will likely get an unprivileged port instead of a privileged one. Changing this setting effects all NFS mount points on a client. A sysadmin could not selectively choose which mount points would use non-privileged ports and which could not. Lastly, this mechanism of expanding the limit on the number of NFS mount points was entirely undocumented. To address the need for the NFS client to use a large range of source ports without interfering with the activity of other in-kernel RPC services, we introduce a new NFS mount option. This option explicitly tells only the NFS client to use a non-privileged source port when communicating with the NFS server for one specific mount point. This new mount option is called "resvport," like the similar NFS mount option on FreeBSD and Mac OS X. A sister patch for nfs-utils will be submitted that documents this new option in nfs(5). The default setting for this new mount option requires the NFS client to use a privileged port, as before. Explicitly specifying the "noresvport" mount option allows the NFS client to use an unprivileged source port for this mount point when connecting to the NFS server port. This mount option is supported only for text-based NFS mounts. [ Sidebar: it is widely known that security mechanisms based on the use of privileged source ports are ineffective. However, the NFS client can combine the use of unprivileged ports with the use of secure authentication mechanisms, such as Kerberos. This allows a large number of connections and mount points while ensuring a useful level of security. Eventually we may change the default setting for this option depending on the security flavor used for the mount. For example, if the mount is using only AUTH_SYS, then the default setting will be "resvport;" if the mount is using a strong security flavor such as krb5, the default setting will be "noresvport." ] Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> [Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com: Fixed a bug whereby nfs4_init_client() was being called with incorrect arguments.] Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

There should be no need to keep any extra locks in the XDR callbacks. The NFS client XDR code only writes into private objects, whereas all reads of shared objects are confined to fields that do not change, such as filehandles... Ditto for lockd, the NFSv2/v3 client mount code, and rpcbind. The nfsd XDR code may require the BKL, but since it does a synchronous RPC call from a thread that already holds the lock, that issue is moot.

The upper 4 layers are fc_lport, fc_disc, fc_rport and fc_fcp. A LLD that uses libfc could choose to either use libfc's block, or using the transport template defined in libfc.h, override one or more blocks with its own implementation. The EM (Exchange Manager) manages exhcanges/sequences for all commands- ELS, CT and FCP. The framing library frames ELS and CT commands. The fc_lport block manages the library's representation of the host's FC enabled ports. The fc_disc block manages discovery of targets as well as handling changes that occur in the FC fabric (via. RSCN events). The fc_rport block manages the library's representation of other entities in the FC fabric. Currently the library uses this block for targets, its peer when in point-to-point mode and the directory server, but can be extended for other entities if needed. The fc_fcp block interacts with the scsi-ml and handles all I/O.
