* NFSD: Prevent a buffer overflow in svc_xprt_names()Chuck Lever2009-04-281-17/+39
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The svc_xprt_names() function can overflow its buffer if it's so near the end of the passed in buffer that the "name too long" string still doesn't fit. Of course, it could never tell if it was near the end of the passed in buffer, since its only caller passes in zero as the buffer length. Let's make this API a little safer. Change svc_xprt_names() so it *always* checks for a buffer overflow, and change its only caller to pass in the correct buffer length. If svc_xprt_names() does overflow its buffer, it now fails with an ENAMETOOLONG errno, instead of trying to write a message at the end of the buffer. I don't like this much, but I can't figure out a clean way that's always safe to return some of the names, *and* an indication that the buffer was not long enough. The displayed error when doing a 'cat /proc/fs/nfsd/portlist' is "File name too long". Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@citi.umich.edu>
* SUNRPC: Fix error return value of svc_addr_len()Chuck Lever2009-04-281-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The svc_addr_len() helper function returns -EAFNOSUPPORT if it doesn't recognize the address family of the passed-in socket address. However, the return type of this function is size_t, which means -EAFNOSUPPORT is turned into a very large positive value in this case. The check in svc_udp_recvfrom() to see if the return value is less than zero therefore won't work at all. Additionally, handle_connect_req() passes this value directly to memset(). This could cause memset() to clobber a large chunk of memory if svc_addr_len() has returned an error. Currently the address family of these addresses, however, is known to be supported long before handle_connect_req() is called, so this isn't a real risk. Change the error return value of svc_addr_len() to zero, which fits in the range of size_t, and is safer to pass to memset() directly.

* FRV: Fix the section attribute on UP DECLARE_PER_CPU()David Howells2009-04-221-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In non-SMP mode, the variable section attribute specified by DECLARE_PER_CPU() does not agree with that specified by DEFINE_PER_CPU(). This means that architectures that have a small data section references relative to a base register may throw up linkage errors due to too great a displacement between where the base register points and the per-CPU variable. On FRV, the .h declaration says that the variable is in the .sdata section, but the .c definition says it's actually in the .data section. The linker throws up the following errors: kernel/built-in.o: In function `release_task': kernel/exit.c:78: relocation truncated to fit: R_FRV_GPREL12 against symbol `per_cpu__process_counts' defined in .data section in kernel/built-in.o kernel/exit.c:78: relocation truncated to fit: R_FRV_GPREL12 against symbol `per_cpu__process_counts' defined in .data section in kernel/built-in.o To fix this, DECLARE_PER_CPU() should simply apply the same section attribute as does DEFINE_PER_CPU(). However, this is made slightly more complex by virtue of the fact that there are several variants on DEFINE, so these need to be matched by variants on DECLARE.

This patch also removes a unnecessary refcount bump that pretended to avoid a possible race condition with event delivery and expectation timers (as said, not needed since we hold a reference to the object since until we finish the expectation setup).

Another issue is that ipv4 connection tracking does reassembling of incomming fragmented packets. If such a reassembled packet is supposed to go via a xfrm ipv6 tunnel it will be droped, even if the original sender did proper fragmentation. According to RFC 2473 (section 7) tunnel ipv6 packets resulting from the encapsulation of an original packet are considered as locally generated packets. If such a packet passed the checks in xfrm{4,6}_tunnel_check_size() fragmentation is allowed according to RFC 2473 (section 7.1/7.2).

Set the receive buffers to be big enough to receive the whole RPC request, and set this for the listening socket, not the accept socket. Remove the code that readjusts the receive/send buffer sizes for the accepted socket. Previously this code was used to influence the TCP window management behaviour, which is no longer needed when autotuning is enabled. This can improve IO bandwidth on networks with high bandwidth-delay products, where a large tcp window is required. It also simplifies performance tuning, since getting adequate tcp buffers previously required increasing the number of nfsd threads.

| * | knfsd: avoid overloading the CPU scheduler with enormous load averagesGreg Banks2009-03-181-7/+18

When the knfsd bottom half is made aware of an incoming call by the socket layer, it tries to choose an nfsd thread and wake it up. As long as there are idle threads, one will be woken up. If there are lot of nfsd threads (a sensible configuration when the server is disk-bound or is running an HSM), there will be many more nfsd threads than CPUs to run them. Under a high call-rate low service-time workload, the result is that almost every nfsd is runnable, but only a handful are actually able to run. This situation causes two significant problems: 1. The CPU scheduler takes over 10% of each CPU, which is robbing the nfsd threads of valuable CPU time. 2. At a high enough load, the nfsd threads starve userspace threads of CPU time, to the point where daemons like portmap and rpc.mountd do not schedule for tens of seconds at a time. Clients attempting to mount an NFS filesystem timeout at the very first step (opening a TCP connection to portmap) because portmap cannot wake up from select() and call accept() in time. Disclaimer: these effects were observed on a SLES9 kernel, modern kernels' schedulers may behave more gracefully. The solution is simple: keep in each svc_pool a counter of the number of threads which have been woken but have not yet run, and do not wake any more if that count reaches an arbitrary small threshold. Testing was on a 4 CPU 4 NIC Altix using 4 IRIX clients, each with 16 synthetic client threads simulating an rsync (i.e. recursive directory listing) workload reading from an i386 RH9 install image (161480 regular files in 10841 directories) on the server. That tree is small enough to fill in the server's RAM so no disk traffic was involved. This setup gives a sustained call rate in excess of 60000 calls/sec before being CPU-bound on the server. The server was running 128 nfsds. Profiling showed schedule() taking 6.7% of every CPU, and __wake_up() taking 5.2%. This patch drops those contributions to 3.0% and 2.2%. Load average was over 120 before the patch, and 20.9 after. This patch is a forward-ported version of knfsd-avoid-nfsd-overload which has been shipping in the SGI "Enhanced NFS" product since 2006.

Multiple counters experience a positive miscount when skb's pcount gets lowered without the necessary adjustments (depending on skb's sacked bits which exactly), at worst a packets_out miscount can crash at RTO if the write queue is empty! Triggering this requires mss change, so bidir tcp or mtu probe or like.

This is easy and quick on all 64bit archs, and can also be done on x86/32 with set_64bit() (uses cmpxchg8b). However other 32b archs don't have this. I actually changed this to the current state in preparation for mainline because the old way (using a spinlock on 32b) resulted in unsightly #ifdefs in the code.
