SUNRPC: Make svc_addr's argument a constant

2008-09-29T22:13:38+00:00

Clean up: Add extra type safety and squelch a few compiler complaints in upcoming patches. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields

SUNRPC: Support IPv6 when registering kernel RPC services

2008-09-29T22:13:38+00:00

In order to advertise NFS-related services on IPv6 interfaces via rpcbind, the kernel RPC server implementation must use rpcb_v4_register() instead of rpcb_register(). A new kernel build option allows distributions to use the legacy v2 call until they integrate an appropriate user-space rpcbind daemon that can support IPv6 RPC services. I tried adding some automatic logic to fall back if registering with a v4 protocol request failed, but there are too many corner cases. So I just made it a compile-time switch that distributions can throw when they've replaced portmapper with rpcbind. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields

SUNRPC: Add address family field to svc_serv data structure

2008-09-29T21:56:56+00:00

Introduce and initialize an address family field in the svc_serv structure. This field will determine what family to use for the service's listener sockets and what families are advertised via the local rpcbind daemon. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields

sunrpc: remove sv_kill_signal field from svc_serv struct

2008-06-23T17:02:49+00:00

Since we no longer make any distinction between shutdown signals with nfsd, then it becomes easier to just standardize on a particular signal to use to bring it down (SIGINT, in this case). Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields

knfsd: convert knfsd to kthread API

2008-06-23T17:02:49+00:00

This patch is rather large, but I couldn't figure out a way to break it up that would remain bisectable. It does several things: - change svc_thread_fn typedef to better match what kthread_create expects - change svc_pool_map_set_cpumask to be more kthread friendly. Make it take a task arg and and get rid of the "oldmask" - have svc_set_num_threads call kthread_create directly - eliminate __svc_create_thread Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton Signed-off-by: J.

SUNRPC: remove svc_create_thread()

2008-04-23T20:13:42+00:00

Now that the nfs4 callback thread uses the kthread API, there are no more users of svc_create_thread(). Remove it. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields

nfsd: clean up svc_reserve_auth()

2008-02-10T23:11:16+00:00

This is a void function attempting to return the return value from another void function, which seems harmless but extremely weird, and apparently makes some compilers complain. While we're there, clean up a little (e.g. the switch statement had a minor style problem and seemed overkill as long as there's only one case). Thanks to Trond for noticing this. Signed-off-by: J.

SUNRPC: spin svc_rqst initialization to its own function

2008-02-01T21:42:15+00:00

Move the initialzation in __svc_create_thread that happens prior to thread creation to a new function. Export the function to allow services to have better control over the svc_rqst structs. Also rearrange the rqstp initialization to prevent NULL pointer dereferences in svc_exit_thread in case allocations fail. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton Reviewed-by: NeilBrown Signed-off-by: J.

svc: Add transport hdr size for defer/revisit

2008-02-01T21:42:13+00:00

Some transports have a header in front of the RPC header. The current defer/revisit processing considers only the iov_len and arg_len to determine how much to back up when saving the original request to revisit. Add a field to the rqstp structure to save the size of the transport header so svc_defer can correctly compute the start of a request.

svc: Removing remaining references to rq_sock in rqstp
