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. Signed-off-by:

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. Signed-off-by:

Have frwr's ro_unmap_sync recognize an invalidated rkey that appears as part of a Receive completion. Local invalidation can be skipped for that rkey. Use an out-of-band signaling mechanism to indicate to the server that the client is prepared to receive RDMA Send With Invalidate. Signed-off-by:

Send an RDMA-CM private message on connect, and look for one during a connection-established event. Both sides can communicate their various implementation limits. Implementations that don't support this sideband protocol ignore it. Once the client knows the server's inline threshold maxima, it can adjust the use of Reply chunks, and eliminate most use of Position Zero Read chunks. Moderately-sized I/O can be done using a pure inline RDMA Send instead of RDMA operations that require memory registration. Signed-off-by:

Introduce data structure used by both client and server to exchange implementation details during RDMA/CM connection establishment. This is an experimental out-of-band exchange between Linux RPC-over-RDMA Version One implementations, replacing the deprecated CCP (see RFC 5666bis). The purpose of this extension is to enable prototyping of features that might be introduced in a subsequent version of RPC-over-RDMA. Suggested by Christoph Hellwig and Devesh Sharma. Signed-off-by:

Currently, each regbuf is allocated and DMA mapped at the same time. This is done during transport creation. When a device driver is unloaded, every DMA-mapped buffer in use by a transport has to be unmapped, and then remapped to the new device if the driver is loaded again. Remapping will have to be done _after_ the connect worker has set up the new device. But there's an ordering problem: call_allocate, which invokes xprt_rdma_allocate which calls rpcrdma_alloc_regbuf to allocate Send buffers, happens _before_ the connect worker can run to set up the new device. Instead, at transport creation, allocate each buffer, but leave it unmapped. Once the RPC carries these buffers into ->send_request, by which time a transport connection should have been established, check to see that the RPC's buffers have been DMA mapped. If not, map them there. When device driver unplug support is added, it will simply unmap all the transport's regbufs, but it doesn't have to deallocate the underlying memory. Signed-off-by:

The use of DMA_BIDIRECTIONAL is discouraged by DMA-API.txt. Fortunately, xprtrdma now knows which direction I/O is going as soon as it allocates each regbuf. The RPC Call and Reply buffers are no longer the same regbuf. They can each be labeled correctly now. The RPC Reply buffer is never part of either a Send or Receive WR, but it can be part of Reply chunk, which is mapped and registered via ->ro_map . So it is not DMA mapped when it is allocated (DMA_NONE), to avoid a double- mapping. Since Receive buffers are no longer DMA_BIDIRECTIONAL and their contents are never modified by the host CPU, DMA-API-HOWTO.txt suggests that a DMA sync before posting each buffer should be unnecessary. (See my_card_interrupt_handler). Signed-off-by:

Commit 94931746 ("xprtrdma: Limit number of RDMA segments in RPC-over-RDMA headers") capped the number of chunks that may appear in RPC-over-RDMA headers. The maximum header size can be estimated and fixed to avoid allocating buffer space that is never used. Signed-off-by:

RPC-over-RDMA needs to separate its RPC call and reply buffers. o When an RPC Call is sent, rq_snd_buf is DMA mapped for an RDMA Send operation using DMA_TO_DEVICE o If the client expects a large RPC reply, it DMA maps rq_rcv_buf as part of a Reply chunk using DMA_FROM_DEVICE The two mappings are for data movement in opposite directions. DMA-API.txt suggests that if these mappings share a DMA cacheline, bad things can happen. This could occur in the final bytes of rq_snd_buf and the first bytes of rq_rcv_buf if the two buffers happen to share a DMA cacheline. On x86_64 the cacheline size is typically 8 bytes, and RPC call messages are usually much smaller than the send buffer, so this hasn't been a noticeable problem. But the DMA cacheline size can be larger on other platforms. Also, often rq_rcv_buf starts most of the way into a page, thus an additional RDMA segment is needed to map and register the end of that buffer. Try to avoid that scenario to reduce the cost of registering and invalidating Reply chunks. Instead of carrying a single regbuf that covers both rq_snd_buf and rq_rcv_buf, each struct rpcrdma_req now carries one regbuf for rq_snd_buf and one regbuf for rq_rcv_buf. Some incidental changes worth noting: - To clear out some spaghetti, refactor xprt_rdma_allocate. - The value stored in rg_size is the same as the value stored in the iov.length field, so eliminate rg_size Signed-off-by:

Currently there's a hidden and indirect mechanism for finding the rpcrdma_req that goes with an rpc_rqst. It depends on getting from the rq_buffer pointer in struct rpc_rqst to the struct rpcrdma_regbuf that controls that buffer, and then to the struct rpcrdma_req it goes with. This was done back in the day to avoid the need to add a per-rqst pointer or to alter the buf_free API when support for RPC-over-RDMA was introduced. I'm about to change the way regbuf's work to support larger inline thresholds. Now is a good time to replace this indirect mechanism with something that is more straightforward. I guess this should be considered a clean up. Signed-off-by:

For xprtrdma, the RPC Call and Reply buffers are involved in real I/O operations. To start with, the DMA direction of the I/O for a Call is opposite that of a Reply. In the current arrangement, the Reply buffer address is on a four-byte alignment just past the call buffer. Would be friendlier on some platforms if that was at a DMA cache alignment instead. Because the current arrangement allocates a single memory region which contains both buffers, the RPC Reply buffer often contains a page boundary in it when the Call buffer is large enough (which is frequent). It would be a little nicer for setting up DMA operations (and possible registration of the Reply buffer) if the two buffers were separated, well-aligned, and contained as few page boundaries as possible. Now, I could just pad out the single memory region used for the pair of buffers. But frequently that would mean a lot of unused space to ensure the Reply buffer did not have a page boundary. Add a separate pointer to rpc_rqst that points right to the RPC Reply buffer. This makes no difference to xprtsock, but it will help xprtrdma in subsequent patches. Signed-off-by:

xprtrdma needs to allocate the Call and Reply buffers separately. TBH, the reliance on using a single buffer for the pair of XDR buffers is transport implementation-specific. Instead of passing just the rq_buffer into the buf_free method, pass the task structure and let buf_free take care of freeing both XDR buffers at once. There's a micro-optimization here. In the common case, both xprt_release and the transport's buf_free method were checking if rq_buffer was NULL. Now the check is done only once per RPC. Signed-off-by:

xprtrdma needs to allocate the Call and Reply buffers separately. TBH, the reliance on using a single buffer for the pair of XDR buffers is transport implementation-specific. Transports that want to allocate separate Call and Reply buffers will ignore the "size" argument anyway. Don't bother passing it. The buf_alloc method can't return two pointers. Instead, make the method's return value an error code, and set the rq_buffer pointer in the method itself. This gives call_allocate an opportunity to terminate an RPC instead of looping forever when a permanent problem occurs. If a request is just bogus, or the transport is in a state where it can't allocate resources for any request, there needs to be a way to kill the RPC right there and not loop. This immediately fixes a rare problem in the backchannel send path, which loops if the server happens to send a CB request whose call+reply size is larger than a page (which it shouldn't do yet). One more issue: looks like xprt_inject_disconnect was incorrectly placed in the failure path in call_allocate. It needs to be in the success path, as it is for other call-sites. Signed-off-by:

Current NFSv4.1/pNFS client assumes that MDS supports only one layout type. While it's true for most existing servers, nevertheless, this can be change in the near future. For now, this patch just plumbs in the ability to track a list of layouts in the fsinfo structure. The existing behavior of the client is preserved, by having it just select the first entry in the list. Signed-off-by:
