      xprtrdma: Fix receive buffer accounting · 05c97466
      Chuck Lever authored
      An RPC can terminate before its reply arrives, if a credential
      problem or a soft timeout occurs. After this happens, xprtrdma
      reports it is out of Receive buffers.
      
      A Receive buffer is posted before each RPC is sent, and returned to
      the buffer pool when a reply is received. If no reply is received
      for an RPC, that Receive buffer remains posted. But xprtrdma tries
      to post another when the next RPC is sent.
      
      If this happens a few dozen times, there are no receive buffers left
      to be posted at send time. I don't see a way for a transport
      connection to recover at that point, and it will spit warnings and
      unnecessarily delay RPCs on occasion for its remaining lifetime.
      
      Commit 1e465fd4 ("xprtrdma: Replace send and receive arrays")
      removed a little bit of logic to detect this case and not provide
      a Receive buffer so no more buffers are posted, and then transport
      operation continues correctly. We didn't understand what that logic
      did, and it wasn't commented, so it was removed as part of the
      overhaul to support backchannel requests.
      
      Restore it, but be wary of the need to keep extra Receives posted
      to deal with backchannel requests.

      xprtrdma: Revert 3d4cf35b ("xprtrdma: Reply buffer exhaustion...") · 78d506e1
      Chuck Lever authored
      Receive buffer exhaustion, if it were to actually occur, would be
      catastrophic. However, when there are no reply buffers to post, that
      means all of them have already been posted and are waiting for
      incoming replies. By design, there can never be more RPCs in flight
      than there are available receive buffers.
      
      A receive buffer can be left posted after an RPC exits without a
      received reply; say, due to a credential problem or a soft timeout.
      This does not result in fewer posted receive buffers than there are
      pending RPCs, and there is already logic in xprtrdma to deal
      appropriately with this case.
      
      It also looks like the "+ 2" that was removed was accidentally
      accommodating the number of extra receive buffers needed for
      receiving backchannel requests. That will need to be addressed by
      another patch.

      pNFS: Don't forget the layout stateid if there are outstanding LAYOUTGETs · 334a8f37
      Trond Myklebust authored
      If there are outstanding LAYOUTGET rpc calls, then we want to ensure that
      we keep the layout stateid around so we that don't inadvertently pick up
      an old/misordered sequence id.
      The race is as follows:
      
      Client				Server
      ======				======
      LAYOUTGET(seqid)
      LAYOUTGET(seqid)
      				return LAYOUTGET(seqid+1)
      				return LAYOUTGET(seqid+2)
      process LAYOUTGET(seqid+2)
      	forget layout
      process LAYOUTGET(seqid+1)
      
      If it forgets the layout stateid before processing seqid+1, then
      the client will not check the layout->plh_barrier, and so will set
      the stateid with seqid+1.
