SUNRPC: fix build-warning due to format missmatch

2015-03-13T13:05:20+00:00

fix build-warning introduced by commit: f0eede10fd4 ("SUNRPC: use jiffies_to_msecs for converting jiffies") which did not fixup the format properly (my bad). Signed-off-by: Nicholas Mc Guire Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust

SUNRPC: use jiffies_to_msecs for converting jiffies

2015-03-12T15:53:55+00:00

Use jiffies_to_msecs for converting jiffies as it handles all of the corner cases reliably and also helps readability. Signed-off-by: Nicholas Mc Guire Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust

SUNRPC: Allow waiting on memory allocation

2015-01-24T23:46:50+00:00

We should be safe now, as long as we don't do GFP_IO or higher allocations Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust

SUNRPC: Adjust rpciod workqueue parameters

2015-01-24T23:46:49+00:00

Increase the concurrency level for rpciod threads to allow for allocations etc that happen in the RPCSEC_GSS layer. Also note that the NFSv4 byte range locks may now need to allocate memory from inside rpciod. Add the WQ_HIGHPRI flag to improve latency guarantees while we're at it. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust

sunrpc: eliminate RPC_TRACEPOINTS

2014-11-24T22:33:12+00:00

It's always set to the same value as CONFIG_TRACEPOINTS, so we can just use that instead. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust

sunrpc: eliminate RPC_DEBUG

It's always set to whatever CONFIG_SUNRPC_DEBUG is, so just use that. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust

NFS/SUNRPC: Remove other deadlock-avoidance mechanisms in nfs_release_page()

2014-09-25T12:25:47+00:00

Now that nfs_release_page() doesn't block indefinitely, other deadlock avoidance mechanisms aren't needed. - it doesn't hurt for kswapd to block occasionally. If it doesn't want to block it would clear __GFP_WAIT. The current_is_kswapd() was only added to avoid deadlocks and we have a new approach for that. - memory allocation in the SUNRPC layer can very rarely try to ->releasepage() a page it is trying to handle. The deadlock is removed as nfs_release_page() doesn't block indefinitely. So we don't need to set PF_FSTRANS for sunrpc network operations any more.

sched: Allow wait_on_bit_action() functions to support a timeout

2014-07-16T13:10:41+00:00

It is currently not possible for various wait_on_bit functions to implement a timeout. While the "action" function that is called to do the waiting could certainly use schedule_timeout(), there is no way to carry forward the remaining timeout after a false wake-up. As false-wakeups a clearly possible at least due to possible hash collisions in bit_waitqueue(), this is a real problem. The 'action' function is currently passed a pointer to the word containing the bit being waited on. No current action functions use this pointer. So changing it to something else will be a little noisy but will have no immediate effect. This patch changes the 'action' function to take a pointer to the "struct wait_bit_key", which contains a pointer to the word containing the bit so nothing is really lost. It also adds a 'private' field to "struct wait_bit_key", which is initialized to zero. An action function can now implement a timeout with something like static int timed_out_waiter(struct wait_bit_key *key) { unsigned long waited; if (key->private == 0) { key->private = jiffies; if (key->private == 0) key->private -= 1; } waited = jiffies - key->private; if (waited > 10 * HZ) return -EAGAIN; schedule_timeout(waited - 10 * HZ); return 0; } If any other need for context in a waiter were found it would be easy to use ->private for some other purpose, or even extend "struct wait_bit_key". My particular need is to support timeouts in nfs_release_page() to avoid deadlocks with loopback mounted NFS. While wait_on_bit_timeout() would be a cleaner interface, it will not meet my need. I need the timeout to be sensitive to the state of the connection with the server, which could change. So I need to use an 'action' interface.

net, sunrpc: suppress allocation warning in rpc_malloc()

2014-05-29T15:11:51+00:00

rpc_malloc() allocates with GFP_NOWAIT without making any attempt at reclaim so it easily fails when low on memory. This ends up spamming the kernel log: SLAB: Unable to allocate memory on node 0 (gfp=0x4000) cache: kmalloc-8192, object size: 8192, order: 1 node 0: slabs: 207/207, objs: 207/207, free: 0 rekonq: page allocation failure: order:1, mode:0x204000 CPU: 2 PID: 14321 Comm: rekonq Tainted: G O 3.15.0-rc3-12.gfc9498b-desktop+ #6 Hardware name: System manufacturer System Product Name/M4A785TD-V EVO, BIOS 2105 07/23/2010 0000000000000000 ffff880010ff17d0 ffffffff815e693c 0000000000204000 ffff880010ff1858 ffffffff81137bd2 0000000000000000 0000001000000000 ffff88011ffebc38 0000000000000001 0000000000204000 ffff88011ffea000 Call Trace: [] dump_stack+0x4d/0x6f [] warn_alloc_failed+0xd2/0x140 [] __alloc_pages_nodemask+0x7e9/0xa30 [] kmem_getpages+0x58/0x140 [] fallback_alloc+0x1d6/0x210 [] ____cache_alloc_node+0x123/0x150 [] __kmalloc+0x203/0x490 [] rpc_malloc+0x32/0xa0 [sunrpc] [] call_allocate+0xb9/0x170 [sunrpc] [] __rpc_execute+0x88/0x460 [sunrpc] [] rpc_execute+0x59/0xc0 [sunrpc] [] rpc_run_task+0x6b/0x90 [sunrpc] [] nfs4_call_sync_sequence+0x51/0x80 [nfsv4] [] _nfs4_do_setattr+0x1ed/0x280 [nfsv4] [] nfs4_do_setattr+0x72/0x180 [nfsv4] [] nfs4_proc_setattr+0xbc/0x140 [nfsv4] [] nfs_setattr+0xd8/0x240 [nfs] [] notify_change+0x231/0x380 [] chmod_common+0xfc/0x120 [] SyS_chmod+0x40/0x90 [] system_call_fastpath+0x1a/0x1f ...
