      afs: Actively poll fileservers to maintain NAT or firewall openings · f6cbb368
      David Howells authored
      When an AFS client accesses a file, it receives a limited-duration callback
      promise that the server will notify it if another client changes a file.
      This callback duration can be a few hours in length.
      
      If a client mounts a volume and then an application prevents it from being
      unmounted, say by chdir'ing into it, but then does nothing for some time,
      the rxrpc_peer record will expire and rxrpc-level keepalive will cease.
      
      If there is NAT or a firewall between the client and the server, the route
      back for the server may close after a comparatively short duration, meaning
      that attempts by the server to notify the client may then bounce.
      
      The client, however, may (so far as it knows) still have a valid unexpired
      promise and will then rely on its cached data and will not see changes made
      on the server by a third party until it incidentally rechecks the status or
      the promise needs renewal.
      
      To deal with this, the client needs to regularly probe the server.  This
      has two effects: firstly, it keeps a route open back for the server, and
      secondly, it causes the server to disgorge any notifications that got
      queued up because they couldn't be sent.
      
      Fix this by adding a mechanism to emit regular probes.
      
      Two levels of probing are made available: Under normal circumstances the
      'slow' queue will be used for a fileserver - this just probes the preferred
      address once every 5 mins or so; however, if server fails to respond to any
      probes, the server will shift to the 'fast' queue from which all its
      interfaces will be probed every 30s.  When it finally responds, the record
      will switch back to the slow queue.
      
      Further notes:
      
       (1) Probing is now no longer driven from the fileserver rotation
           algorithm.
      
       (2) Probes are dispatched to all interfaces on a fileserver when that an
           afs_server object is set up to record it.
      
       (3) The afs_server object is removed from the probe queues when we start
           to probe it.  afs_is_probing_server() returns true if it's not listed
           - ie. it's undergoing probing.
      
       (4) The afs_server object is added back on to the probe queue when the
           final outstanding probe completes, but the probed_at time is set when
           we're about to launch a probe so that it's not dependent on the probe
           duration.
      
       (5) The timer and the work item added for this must be handed a count on
           net->servers_outstanding, which they hand on or release.  This makes
           sure that network namespace cleanup waits for them.

      afs: Split the usage count on struct afs_server · 977e5f8e
      David Howells authored
      Split the usage count on the afs_server struct to have an active count that
      registers who's actually using it separately from the reference count on
      the object.
      
      This allows a future patch to dispatch polling probes without advancing the
      "unuse" time into the future each time we emit a probe, which would
      otherwise prevent unused server records from expiring.
      
      Included in this:
      
       (1) The latter part of afs_destroy_server() in which the RCU destruction
           of afs_server objects is invoked and the outstanding server count is
           decremented is split out into __afs_put_server().
      
       (2) afs_put_server() now calls __afs_put_server() rather then setting the
           management timer.
      
       (3) The calls begun by afs_fs_give_up_all_callbacks() and
           afs_fs_get_capabilities() can now take a ref on the server record, so
           afs_destroy_server() can just drop its ref and needn't wait for the
           completion of these calls.  They'll put the ref when they're done.
      
       (4) Because of (3), afs_fs_probe_done() no longer needs to wake up
           afs_destroy_server() with server->probe_outstanding.
      
       (5) afs_gc_servers can be simplified.  It only needs to check if
           server->active is 0 rather than playing games with the refcount.
      
       (6) afs_manage_servers() can propose a server for gc if usage == 0 rather
           than if ref == 1.  The gc is effected by (5).

      afs: Use the serverUnique field in the UVLDB record to reduce rpc ops · 81006805
      David Howells authored
      The U-version VLDB volume record retrieved by the VL.GetEntryByNameU rpc op
      carries a change counter (the serverUnique field) for each fileserver
      listed in the record as backing that volume.  This is incremented whenever
      the registration details for a fileserver change (such as its address
      list).  Note that the same value will be seen in all UVLDB records that
      refer to that fileserver.
      
      This should be checked before calling the VL server to re-query the address
      list for a fileserver.  If it's the same, there's no point doing the query.

      afs: Always include dir in bulk status fetch from afs_do_lookup() · 13fcc635
      David Howells authored
      When a lookup is done in an AFS directory, the filesystem will speculate
      and fetch up to 49 other statuses for files in the same directory and fetch
      those as well, turning them into inodes or updating inodes that already
      exist.
      
      However, occasionally, a callback break might go missing due to NAT timing
      out, but the afs filesystem doesn't then realise that the directory is not
      up to date.
      
      Alleviate this by using one of the status slots to check the directory in
      which the lookup is being done.

      vfs, afs, ext4: Make the inode hash table RCU searchable · 3f19b2ab
      David Howells authored
      Make the inode hash table RCU searchable so that searches that want to
      access or modify an inode without taking a ref on that inode can do so
      without taking the inode hash table lock.
      
      The main thing this requires is some RCU annotation on the list
      manipulation operations.  Inodes are already freed by RCU in most cases.
      
      Users of this interface must take care as the inode may be still under
      construction or may be being torn down around them.
      
      There are at least three instances where this can be of use:
      
       (1) Testing whether the inode number iunique() is going to return is
           currently unique (the iunique_lock is still held).
      
       (2) Ext4 date stamp updating.
      
       (3) AFS callback breaking.
