      NFS: direct: use complete() instead of complete_all() · 024de8f1
      Daniel Wagner authored
      There is only one waiter for the completion, therefore there
      is no need to use complete_all(). Let's make that clear by
      using complete() instead of complete_all().
      
      nfs_file_direct_write() or nfs_file_direct_read() allocated a request
      object via nfs_direct_req_alloc(), which initializes the
      completion. The request object then is freed later in the exit path.
      Between the initialization and the release either
      nfs_direct_write_schedule_iovec() resp
      nfs_direct_read_schedule_iovec() are called which will asynchronously
      process the request. The calling function waits via nfs_direct_wait()
      till the async work has been done. Thus there is only one waiter on
      the completion.
      
      nfs_direct_pgio_init() and nfs_direct_read_completion() are passed via
      function pointers to nfs pageio. The first function does a ref
      counting (get_dreq() and put_dreq()) which ensures that
      nfs_direct_read_completion() and nfs_direct_read_schedule_iovec() only
      call the completion path once.
      
      The usage pattern of the completion is:
      
      waiter context                          waker context

                                                  complete()
      
      nfs_file_direct_read()
        dreq = nfs_direct_req_all()
          init_completion()
        nfs_direct_read_schedule_iovec()
        nfs_direct_wait()
          wait_for_completion_killable()

      sunrpc: fix write space race causing stalls · d48f9ce7
      David Vrabel authored
      Write space becoming available may race with putting the task to sleep
      in xprt_wait_for_buffer_space().  The existing mechanism to avoid the
      race does not work.
      
      This (edited) partial trace illustrates the problem:
      
         [1] rpc_task_run_action: task:43546@5 ... action=call_transmit
         [2] xs_write_space <-xs_tcp_write_space
         [3] xprt_write_space <-xs_write_space
         [4] rpc_task_sleep: task:43546@5 ...
         [5] xs_write_space <-xs_tcp_write_space
      
      [1] Task 43546 runs but is out of write space.
      
      [2] Space becomes available, xs_write_space() clears the
          SOCKWQ_ASYNC_NOSPACE bit.
      
      [3] xprt_write_space() attemts to wake xprt->snd_task (== 43546), but
          this has not yet been queued and the wake up is lost.
      
      [4] xs_nospace() is called which calls xprt_wait_for_buffer_space()
          which queues task 43546.
      
      [5] The call to sk->sk_write_space() at the end of xs_nospace() (which
          is supposed to handle the above race) does not call
          xprt_write_space() as the SOCKWQ_ASYNC_NOSPACE bit is clear and
          thus the task is not woken.
      
      Fix the race by resetting the SOCKWQ_ASYNC_NOSPACE bit in xs_nospace()
      so the second call to sk->sk_write_space() calls xprt_write_space().

      pnfs: add a new mechanism to select a layout driver according to an ordered list · ca440c38
      Jeff Layton authored
      Currently, the layout driver selection code always chooses the first one
      from the list. That's not really ideal however, as the server can send
      the list of layout types in any order that it likes. It's up to the
      client to select the best one for its needs.
      
      This patch adds an ordered list of preferred driver types and has the
      selection code sort the list of available layout drivers according to it.
      Any unrecognized layout type is sorted to the end of the list.
      
      For now, the order of preference is hardcoded, but it should be possible
      to make this configurable in the future.

      xprtrdma: Support larger inline thresholds · 44829d02
      Chuck Lever authored
      The Version One default inline threshold is still 1KB. But allow
      testing with thresholds up to 64KB.
      
      This maximum is somewhat arbitrary. There's no fundamental
      architectural limit I'm aware of, but it's good to keep the size of
      Receive buffers reasonable. Now that Send can use a s/g list, a
      Send buffer is only as large as each RPC requires. Receive buffers
      are always the size of the inline threshold, however.

      xprtrdma: Use gathered Send for large inline messages · 655fec69
      Chuck Lever authored
      An RPC Call message that is sent inline but that has a data payload
      (ie, one or more items in rq_snd_buf's page list) must be "pulled
      up:"
      
      - call_allocate has to reserve enough RPC Call buffer space to
      accommodate the data payload
      
      - call_transmit has to memcopy the rq_snd_buf's page list and tail
      into its head iovec before it is sent
      
      As the inline threshold is increased beyond its current 1KB default,
      however, this means data payloads of more than a few KB are copied
      by the host CPU. For example, if the inline threshold is increased
      just to 4KB, then NFS WRITE requests up to 4KB would involve a
      memcpy of the NFS WRITE's payload data into the RPC Call buffer.
      This is an undesirable amount of participation by the host CPU.
      
      The inline threshold may be much larger than 4KB in the future,
      after negotiation with a peer server.
      
      Instead of copying the components of rq_snd_buf into its head iovec,
      construct a gather list of these components, and send them all in
      place. The same approach is already used in the Linux server's
      RPC-over-RDMA reply path.
      
      This mechanism also eliminates the need for rpcrdma_tail_pullup,
      which is used to manage the XDR pad and trailing inline content when
      a Read list is present.
      
      This requires that the pages in rq_snd_buf's page list be DMA-mapped
      during marshaling, and unmapped when a data-bearing RPC is
      completed. This is slightly less efficient for very small I/O
      payloads, but significantly more efficient as data payload size and
      inline threshold increase past a kilobyte.
