There is no point in looping if we're out of memory. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

Again, we can deadlock if the memory reclaim triggers a writeback that requires a rpcsec_gss credential lookup. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

We do not want to have the state recovery thread kick off and wait for a memory reclaim, since that may deadlock when the writebacks end up waiting for the state recovery thread to complete. The safe thing is therefore to use GFP_NOFS in all open, close, delegation return, lock, etc. operations that may be called by the state recovery thread.

It is a BUG for anybody to call this function without setting args->bc_xprt. Trying to return an error value is just wrong, since the user cannot fix this: it is a programming error, not a user error. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

Currently RPC performance metrics that tabulate elapsed time use jiffies time values. This is problematic on systems that use slow jiffies (for instance 100HZ systems built for paravirtualized environments). It is also a problem for computing precise latency statistics for advanced network transports, such as InfiniBand, that can have round-trip latencies significanly faster than a single clock tick. For the RPC client, adopt the high resolution time stamp mechanism already used by the network layer and blktrace: ktime. We use ktime format time stamps for all internal computations, and convert to milliseconds for presentation. As a result, we need only addition operations in the performance critical paths; multiply/divide is required only for presentation. We could report RTT metrics in microseconds. In fact the mountstats format is versioned to accomodate exactly this kind of interface improvement. For now, however, we'll stay with millisecond precision for presentation to maintain backwards compatibility with the handful of currently deployed user space tools. At a later point, we'll move to an API such as BDI_STATS where a finer timestamp precision can be reported.

To report ktime statistics to user space in milliseconds, a new helper is required. When considering how to do this conversion, I didn't immediately see why the extra step of converting ktime to a timeval was needed. To make that more clear, introduce a couple of large comments.

Compute an RPC request's RTT once, and use that value both for reporting RPC metrics, and for adjusting the RTT context used by the RPC client's RTT estimator algorithm. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

I'm about to change task->tk_start from a jiffies value to a ktime_t value in order to make RPC RTT reporting more precise. Recently (commit dc96aef9) nfs4_renew_done() started to reference task->tk_start so that a jiffies value no longer had to be passed from nfs4_proc_async_renew(). This allowed the calldata to point to an nfs_client instead. Changing task->tk_start to a ktime_t value makes it effectively useless for renew timestamps, so we need to restore the pre-dc96aef9 logic that provided a jiffies "start" timestamp to nfs4_renew_done(). Both an nfs_client pointer and a timestamp need to be passed to nfs4_renew_done(), so create a new nfs_renewdata structure that contains both, resembling what is already done for delegreturn, lock, and unlock.

Seen with -Wextra: /home/cel/linux/fs/nfs/fscache.c: In function ‘__nfs_readpages_from_fscache’: /home/cel/linux/fs/nfs/fscache.c:479: warning: comparison between signed and unsigned integer expressions The comparison implicitly converts "int" to "unsigned", making it safe. But there's no need for the implicit type conversions here, and the dfprintk() already uses a "%u" formatter for "npages." Better to reduce confusion.
