Miklos Szeredi 0ef97dcfce nfs: don't open in ->d_revalidate
NFSv4 can't do reliable opens in d_revalidate, since it cannot know whether a
mount needs to be followed or not.  It does check d_mountpoint() on the dentry,
which can result in a weird error if the VFS found that the mount does not in
fact need to be followed, e.g.:

  # mount --bind /mnt/nfs /mnt/nfs-clone
  # echo something > /mnt/nfs/tmp/bar
  # echo x > /tmp/file
  # mount --bind /tmp/file /mnt/nfs-clone/tmp/bar
  # cat  /mnt/nfs/tmp/bar
  cat: /mnt/nfs/tmp/bar: Not a directory

Which should, by any sane filesystem, result in "something" being printed.

So instead do the open in f_op->open() and in the unlikely case that the cached
dentry turned out to be invalid, drop the dentry and return EOPENSTALE to let
the VFS retry.

Trond Myklebust 14546c3375 NFS: Don't do a full flush to disk on close() if we hold a delegation
If we hold a delegation then we know that it should be safe to continue
to cache the data beyond the close(). However since the process that wrote
the data may die after close(), we may still want to send the data to
server before those RPCSEC_GSS credentials expire. We therefore compromise
by starting writeback to the server, but don't wait for completion.

Merge tag 'split-asm_system_h-for-linus-20120328' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-asm_system

Pull "Disintegrate and delete asm/system.h" from David Howells:
 "Here are a bunch of patches to disintegrate asm/system.h into a set of
  separate bits to relieve the problem of circular inclusion
  dependencies.

  I've built all the working defconfigs from all the arches that I can
  and made sure that they don't break.

  The reason for these patches is that I recently encountered a circular
  dependency problem that came about when I produced some patches to
  optimise get_order() by rewriting it to use ilog2().

  This uses bitops - and on the SH arch asm/bitops.h drags in
  asm-generic/get_order.h by a circuituous route involving asm/system.h.

  The main difficulty seems to be asm/system.h.  It holds a number of
  low level bits with no/few dependencies that are commonly used (eg.
  memory barriers) and a number of bits with more dependencies that
  aren't used in many places (eg.  switch_to()).

  These patches break asm/system.h up into the following core pieces:

    (1) asm/barrier.h

        Move memory barriers here.  This already done for MIPS and Alpha.

    (2) asm/switch_to.h

        Move switch_to() and related stuff here.

    (3) asm/exec.h

        Move arch_align_stack() here.  Other process execution related bits
        could perhaps go here from asm/processor.h.

    (4) asm/cmpxchg.h

        Move xchg() and cmpxchg() here as they're full word atomic ops and
        frequently used by atomic_xchg() and atomic_cmpxchg().

    (5) asm/bug.h

        Move die() and related bits.

    (6) asm/auxvec.h

        Move AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH here.

  Other arch headers are created as needed on a per-arch basis."

Fixed up some conflicts from other header file cleanups and moving code
around that has happened in the meantime, so David's testing is somewhat
weakened by that.  We'll find out anything that got broken and fix it..

Subject: [PATCH] NFS - fix recent breakage to NFS error handling.

commit 02c24a8218 made a small and
presumably unintended change to write error handling in NFS.

Previously an error from filemap_write_and_wait_range would only be of
interest if nfs_file_fsync did not return an error.  After this commit,
an error from filemap_write_and_wait_range would mean that (the rest of)
nfs_file_fsync would not even be called.

This means that:
 1/ you are more likely to see EIO than e.g. EDQUOT or ENOSPC.
 2/ NFS_CONTEXT_ERROR_WRITE remains set for longer so more writes are
    synchronous.

This patch restores previous behaviour.

Jeff Layton 1788ea6e3b nfs: when attempting to open a directory, fall back on normal lookup (try #5)
commit d953126 changed how nfs_atomic_lookup handles an -EISDIR return
from an OPEN call. Prior to that patch, that caused the client to fall
back to doing a normal lookup. When that patch went in, the code began
returning that error to userspace. The d_revalidate codepath however
never had the corresponding change, so it was still possible to end up
with a NULL ctx->state pointer after that.

That patch caused a regression. When we attempt to open a directory that
does not have a cached dentry, that open now errors out with EISDIR. If
you attempt the same open with a cached dentry, it will succeed.

Fix this by reverting the change in nfs_atomic_lookup and allowing
attempts to open directories to fall back to a normal lookup

Also, add a NFSv4-specific f_ops->open routine that just returns
-ENOTDIR. This should never be called if things are working properly,
but if it ever is, then the dprintk may help in debugging.

To facilitate this, a new file_operations field is also added to the
nfs_rpc_ops struct.

Andi Kleen ef3d0fd27e vfs: do (nearly) lockless generic_file_llseek
The i_mutex lock use of generic _file_llseek hurts.  Independent processes
accessing the same file synchronize over a single lock, even though
they have no need for synchronization at all.

Under high utilization this can cause llseek to scale very poorly on larger
systems.

This patch does some rethinking of the llseek locking model:

First the 64bit f_pos is not necessarily atomic without locks
on 32bit systems. This can already cause races with read() today.
This was discussed on linux-kernel in the past and deemed acceptable.
The patch does not change that.

Let's look at the different seek variants:

SEEK_SET: Doesn't really need any locking.
If there's a race one writer wins, the other loses.

For 32bit the non atomic update races against read()
stay the same. Without a lock they can also happen
against write() now.  The read() race was deemed
acceptable in past discussions, and I think if it's
ok for read it's ok for write too.

=> Don't need a lock.

SEEK_END: This behaves like SEEK_SET plus it reads
the maximum size too. Reading the maximum size would have the
32bit atomic problem. But luckily we already have a way to read
the maximum size without locking (i_size_read), so we
can just use that instead.

Without i_mutex there is no synchronization with write() anymore,
however since the write() update is atomic on 64bit it just behaves
like another racy SEEK_SET.  On non atomic 32bit it's the same
as SEEK_SET.

=> Don't need a lock, but need to use i_size_read()

SEEK_CUR: This has a read-modify-write race window
on the same file. One could argue that any application
doing unsynchronized seeks on the same file is already broken.
But for the sake of not adding a regression here I'm
using the file->f_lock to synchronize this. Using this
lock is much better than the inode mutex because it doesn't
synchronize between processes.

=> So still need a lock, but can use a f_lock.

This patch implements this new scheme in generic_file_llseek.
I dropped generic_file_llseek_unlocked and changed all callers.

Josef Bacik 02c24a8218 fs: push i_mutex and filemap_write_and_wait down into ->fsync() handlers
Btrfs needs to be able to control how filemap_write_and_wait_range() is called
in fsync to make it less of a painful operation, so push down taking i_mutex and
the calling of filemap_write_and_wait() down into the ->fsync() handlers.  Some
file systems can drop taking the i_mutex altogether it seems, like ext3 and
ocfs2.  For correctness sake I just pushed everything down in all cases to make
sure that we keep the current behavior the same for everybody, and then each
individual fs maintainer can make up their mind about what to do from there.

This converts everybody to handle SEEK_HOLE/SEEK_DATA properly.  In some cases
we just return -EINVAL, in others we do the normal generic thing, and in others
we're simply making sure that the properly due-dilligence is done.  For example
in NFS/CIFS we need to make sure the file size is update properly for the
SEEK_HOLE and SEEK_DATA case, but since it calls the generic llseek stuff itself
that is all we have to do.  Thanks,

function by itself, however, its usage in NFS changed by the commit
9d6a8c5c21 (locks: give posix_test_lock

locking code received F_UNLCK instead of the user-specified lock type.
To fix the problem, fl->fl_type needs to be saved before the
posix_test_lock() call and restored if no local conflicts were reported.

Ricardo Labiaga 6b96724e50 Revalidate caches on lock
Instead of blindly zapping the caches, attempt to revalidate them if
the server has indicated that it uses high resolution timestamps.

NFSv4 should be able to always revalidate the cache since the
protocol requires the update of the change attribute on modification of
the data.  In reality, there are servers (the Linux NFS server
for example) that do not obey this requirement and use ctime as the
basis for change attribute.  Long term, the server needs to be fixed.

Suresh Jayaraman 5eebde2322 nfs: introduce mount option '-olocal_lock' to make locks local
NFS clients since 2.6.12 support flock locks by emulating fcntl byte-range
locks. Due to this, some windows applications which seem to use both flock
(share mode lock mapped as flock by Samba) and fcntl locks sequentially on
the same file, can't lock as they falsely assume the file is already locked.
The problem was reported on a setup with windows clients accessing excel files
on a Samba exported share which is originally a NFS mount from a NetApp filer.

Older NFS clients (< 2.6.12) did not see this problem as flock locks were
considered local. To support legacy flock behavior, this patch adds a mount
option "-olocal_lock=" which can take the following values:

   'none'  		- Neither flock locks nor POSIX locks are local
   'flock' 		- flock locks are local
   'posix' 		- fcntl/POSIX locks are local
   'all'		- Both flock locks and POSIX locks are local

Testing:

   - This patch was tested by using -olocal_lock option with different values
     and the NLM calls were noted from the network packet captured.

     'none'  - NLM calls were seen during both flock() and fcntl(), flock lock
   	       was granted, fcntl was denied
     'flock' - no NLM calls for flock(), NLM call was seen for fcntl(),
   	       granted
     'posix' - NLM call was seen for flock() - granted, no NLM call for fcntl()
     'all'   - no NLM calls were seen during both flock() and fcntl()

   - No bugs were seen during NFSv4 locking/unlocking in general and NFSv4
     reboot recovery.

The do_vfs_lock function on fs/nfs/file.c is only called if NLM is
not being used, via the -onolock mount option. Therefore it cannot
really be "out of sync with lock manager" when the local locking
function called returns an error, as there will be no corresponding
call to the NLM. For details, simply check the if/else on do_setlk

Tejun Heo 5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

The number of bytes requested for reads is actually not that useful,

the actual number of bytes read.

Christoph Hellwig 6b2f3d1f76 vfs: Implement proper O_SYNC semantics
While Linux provided an O_SYNC flag basically since day 1, it took until
Linux 2.4.0-test12pre2 to actually get it implemented for filesystems,
since that day we had generic_osync_around with only minor changes and the
great "For now, when the user asks for O_SYNC, we'll actually give
O_DSYNC" comment.  This patch intends to actually give us real O_SYNC
semantics in addition to the O_DSYNC semantics.  After Jan's O_SYNC
patches which are required before this patch it's actually surprisingly
simple, we just need to figure out when to set the datasync flag to
vfs_fsync_range and when not.

This patch renames the existing O_SYNC flag to O_DSYNC while keeping it's
numerical value to keep binary compatibility, and adds a new real O_SYNC
flag.  To guarantee backwards compatiblity it is defined as expanding to
both the O_DSYNC and the new additional binary flag (__O_SYNC) to make
sure we are backwards-compatible when compiled against the new headers.

This also means that all places that don't care about the differences can
just check O_DSYNC and get the right behaviour for O_SYNC, too - only
places that actuall care need to check __O_SYNC in addition.  Drivers and
network filesystems have been updated in a fail safe way to always do the
full sync magic if O_DSYNC is set.  The few places setting O_SYNC for
lower layers are kept that way for now to stay failsafe.

We enforce that O_DSYNC is set when __O_SYNC is set early in the open path
to make sure we always get these sane options.

Note that parisc really screwed up their headers as they already define a
O_DSYNC that has always been a no-op.  We try to repair it by using it for
the new O_DSYNC and redefinining O_SYNC to send both the traditional
O_SYNC numerical value _and_ the O_DSYNC one.

Peter Staubach 38c73044f5 NFS: read-modify-write page updating
Hi.

I have a proposal for possibly resolving this issue.

I believe that this situation occurs due to the way that the
Linux NFS client handles writes which modify partial pages.

The Linux NFS client handles partial page modifications by
allocating a page from the page cache, copying the data from
the user level into the page, and then keeping track of the
offset and length of the modified portions of the page.  The
page is not marked as up to date because there are portions
of the page which do not contain valid file contents.

When a read call comes in for a portion of the page, the
contents of the page must be read in the from the server.
However, since the page may already contain some modified
data, that modified data must be written to the server
before the file contents can be read back in the from server.
And, since the writing and reading can not be done atomically,
the data must be written and committed to stable storage on
the server for safety purposes.  This means either a
FILE_SYNC WRITE or a UNSTABLE WRITE followed by a COMMIT.
This has been discussed at length previously.

This algorithm could be described as modify-write-read.  It
is most efficient when the application only updates pages
and does not read them.

My proposed solution is to add a heuristic to decide whether
to do this modify-write-read algorithm or switch to a read-
modify-write algorithm when initially allocating the page
in the write system call path.  The heuristic uses the modes
that the file was opened with, the offset in the page to
read from, and the size of the region to read.

If the file was opened for reading in addition to writing
and the page would not be filled completely with data from
the user level, then read in the old contents of the page
and mark it as Uptodate before copying in the new data.  If
the page would be completely filled with data from the user
level, then there would be no reason to read in the old
contents because they would just be copied over.

This would optimize for applications which randomly access
and update portions of files.  The linkage editor for the
C compiler is an example of such a thing.

I tested the attached patch by using rpmbuild to build the
current Fedora rawhide kernel.  The kernel without the
patch generated about 269,500 WRITE requests.  The modified
kernel containing the patch generated about 261,000 WRITE
requests.  Thus, about 8,500 fewer WRITE requests were
generated.  I suspect that many of these additional
WRITE requests were probably FILE_SYNC requests to WRITE
a single page, but I didn't test this theory.

The difference between this patch and the previous one was
to remove the unneeded PageDirty() test.  I then retested to
ensure that the resulting system continued to behave as
desired.

	Thanx...
