This allows removing extents from the extent tree especially on truncate operations, and thus fixing reads from truncated and re-extended that previously returned stale data. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@primarydata.com>

Christoph Hellwig authored
Currently the block layout driver tracks extents in three separate data structures: - the two list of pnfs_block_extent structures returned by the server - the list of sectors that were in invalid state but have been written to - a list of pnfs_block_short_extent structures for LAYOUTCOMMIT All of these share the property that they are not only highly inefficient data structures, but also that operations on them are even more inefficient than nessecary. In addition there are various implementation defects like: - using an int to track sectors, causing corruption for large offsets - incorrect normalization of page or block granularity ranges - insufficient error handling - incorrect synchronization as extents can be modified while they are in use This patch replace all three data with a single unified rbtree structure tracking all extents, as well as their in-memory state, although we still need to instance for read-only and read-write extent due to the arcane client side COW feature in the block layouts spec. To fix the problem of extent possibly being modified while in use we make sure to return a copy of the extent for use in the write path - the extent can only be invalidated by a layout recall or return which has to wait until the I/O operations finished due to refcounts on the layout segment. The new extent tree work similar to the schemes used by block based filesystems like XFS or ext4.

If a layout driver keeps per-inode state outside of the layout segments it needs to be notified of any layout returns or recalls on an inode, and not just about the freeing of layout segments. Add a method to acomplish this, which will allow the block layout driver to handle the case of truncated and re-expanded files properly.

Like all block based filesystems, the pNFS block layout driver can't read or write at a byte granularity and thus has to perform read-modify-write cycles on writes smaller than this granularity. Add a flag so that the core NFS code always reads a whole page when starting a smaller write, so that we can do it in the place where the VFS expects it instead of doing in very deadlock prone way in the writeback handler. Note that in theory we could do less than page size reads here for disks that have a smaller sector size which are served by a server with a smaller pnfs block size. But so far that doesn't seem like a worthwhile optimization. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@primarydata.com>

Expedite layout recall processing by forcing a layout commit when we see busy segments.

The Linux VM subsystem can't support block sizes larger than page size for block based filesystems very well. While this can be hacked around to some extent for simple filesystems the read-modify-write cycles required for pnfs block invalid extents are extremly deadlock prone when operating on multiple pages. Reject this case early on instead of pretending to support it (badly). Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@primarydata.com>

Currently there is no XDR buffer space allocated for the per-layout driver layoutcommit payload, which leads to server buffer overflows in the blocklayout driver even under simple workloads. As we can't do per-layout sizes for XDR operations we'll have to splice a previously encoded list of pages into the XDR stream, similar to how we handle ACL buffers.

After we issued a layoutreturn operations the may free the layout stateid and will thus cause bad stateid error when the client uses it again. We currently try to avoid this case by chosing the open stateid if not lsegs are present for this inode. But various places can hold refererence on lsegs and thus cause the list not to be empty shortly after a layout return. Add an explicit flag to mark the current layout stateid invalid and force usage of the openstateid after we did a full file layoutreturn.

When layoutget returns an entirely new layout stateid it should not check the generation counter as the new stateid will start with a new counter entirely unrelated to old one. The current behavior causes constant layoutget failures against a block server which allocates a new stateid after an recall that removed all outstanding layouts.

When attempting to establish a local ephemeral endpoint for a TCP or UDP socket, do not explicitly call bind, instead let it happen implicilty when the socket is first used. The main motivating factor for this change is when TCP runs out of unique ephemeral ports (i.e. cannot find any ephemeral ports which are not a part of *any* TCP connection). In this situation if you explicitly call bind, then the call will fail with EADDRINUSE. However, if you allow the allocation of an ephemeral port to happen implicitly as part of connect (or other functions), then ephemeral ports can be reused, so long as the combination of (local_ip, local_port, remote_ip, remote_port) is unique for TCP sockets on the system. This doesn't matter for UDP sockets, but it seemed easiest to treat TCP and UDP sockets the same. This can allow mount.nfs(8) to continue to function successfully, even in the face of misbehaving applications which are creating a large number of TCP connections.

filelayout_retry_commit was recently split out from alloc_ds_commits, but was done in such a way that the bucket pointer always starts at index 0 no matter what the @idx argument is set to. The intention of the @idx argument is to retry commits starting at bucket @idx. This is called when alloc_ds_commits fails for a bucket.

Pull timer fixes from Thomas Gleixner: "Three fixlets from the timer departement: - Update the timekeeper before updating vsyscall and pvclock. This fixes the kvm-clock regression reported by Chris and Paolo. - Use the proper irq work interface from NMI. This fixes the regression reported by Catalin and Dave. - Clarify the compat_nanosleep error handling mechanism to avoid future confusion" * 'timers-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: timekeeping: Update timekeeper before updating vsyscall and pvclock compat: nanosleep: Clarify error handling nohz: Restore NMI safe local irq work for local nohz kick

Commit 0244756e ("ufs: sb mutex merge + mutex_destroy") introduces deadlocks in ufs_new_inode() and ufs_free_inode(). Most callers of that functions acqure the mutex by themselves and ufs_{new,free}_inode() do that via lock_ufs(), i.e we have an unavoidable double lock. The patch proposes to resolve the issue by making sure that ufs_{new,free}_inode() are not called with the mutex held. Found by Linux Driver Verification project (linuxtesting.org).

Pull xfs fixes from Dave Chinner: "The fixes all address recently discovered data corruption issues. The original Direct IO issue was discovered by Chris Mason @ Facebook on a production workload which mixed buffered reads with direct reads and writes IO to the same file. The fix for that exposed other issues with page invalidation (exposed by millions of fsx operations) failing due to dirty buffers beyond EOF. Finally, the collapse_range code could also cause problems due to racing writeback changing the extent map while it was being shifted around. The commits for that problem are simple mitigation fixes that prevent the problem from occuring. A more robust fix for 3.18 that addresses the underlying problem is currently being worked on by Brian. Summary of fixes: - a direct IO read/buffered read data corruption - the associated fallout from the DIO data corruption fix - collapse range bugs that are potential data corruption issues" * tag 'xfs-for-linus-3.17-rc3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dgc/linux-xfs: xfs: trim eofblocks before collapse range xfs: xfs_file_collapse_range is delalloc challenged xfs: don't log inode unless extent shift makes extent modifications xfs: use ranged writeback and invalidation for direct IO xfs: don't zero partial page cache pages during O_DIRECT writes xfs: don't zero partial page cache pages during O_DIRECT writes xfs: don't dirty buffers beyond EOF
