NFSD: Clean up legacy NFS SYMLINK argument XDR decoders

2018-04-03T19:08:16+00:00

Move common code in NFSD's legacy SYMLINK decoders into a helper. The immediate benefits include: - one fewer data copies on transports that support DDP - consistent error checking across all versions - reduction of code duplication - support for both legal forms of SYMLINK requests on RDMA transports for all versions of NFS (in particular, NFSv2, for completeness) In the long term, this helper is an appropriate spot to perform a per-transport call-out to fill the pathname argument using, say, RDMA Reads. Filling the pathname in the proc function also means that eventually the incoming filehandle can be interpreted so that filesystem- specific memory can be allocated as a sink for the pathname argument, rather than using anonymous pages.

NFSD: Clean up legacy NFS WRITE argument XDR decoders

2018-04-03T19:08:16+00:00

Move common code in NFSD's legacy NFS WRITE decoders into a helper. The immediate benefit is reduction of code duplication and some nice micro-optimizations (see below). In the long term, this helper can perform a per-transport call-out to fill the rq_vec (say, using RDMA Reads). The legacy WRITE decoders and procs are changed to work like NFSv4, which constructs the rq_vec just before it is about to call vfs_writev. Why? Calling a transport call-out from the proc instead of the XDR decoder means that the incoming FH can be resolved to a particular filesystem and file. This would allow pages from the backing file to be presented to the transport to be filled, rather than presenting anonymous pages and copying or flipping them into the file's page cache later. I also prefer using the pages in rq_arg.pages, instead of pulling the data pages directly out of the rqstp::rq_pages array. This is currently the way the NFSv3 write decoder works, but the other two do not seem to take this approach. Fixing this removes the only reference to rq_pages found in NFSD, eliminating an NFSD assumption about how transports use the pages in rq_pages. Lastly, avoid setting up the first element of rq_vec as a zero- length buffer. This happens with an RDMA transport when a normal Read chunk is present because the data payload is in rq_arg's page list (none of it is in the head buffer).

svc: Report xprt dequeue latency

2018-04-03T19:08:13+00:00

Record the time between when a rqstp is enqueued on a transport and when it is dequeued. This includes how long the rqstp waits on the queue and how long it takes the kernel scheduler to wake a nfsd thread to service it. The svc_xprt_dequeue trace point is altered to include the number of microseconds between xprt_enqueue and xprt_dequeue. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields

SUNRPC: Improve ordering of transport processing

Since it can take a while before a specific thread gets scheduled, it is better to just implement a first come first served queue mechanism. That way, if a thread is already scheduled and is idle, it can pick up the work to do from the queue. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

2017-11-02T10:10:55+00:00

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches. Reviewed-by: Kate Stewart Reviewed-by: Philippe Ombredanne Reviewed-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

sunrpc: Allocate up to RPCSVC_MAXPAGES per svc_rqst

2017-07-12T19:54:55+00:00

svcrdma needs 259 pages allocated to receive 1MB NFSv4.0 WRITE requests: - 1 page for the transport header and head iovec - 256 pages for the data payload - 1 page for the trailing GETATTR request (since NFSD XDR decoding does not look for a tail iovec, the GETATTR is stuck at the end of the rqstp->rq_arg.pages list) - 1 page for building the reply xdr_buf But RPCSVC_MAXPAGES is already 259 (on x86_64). The problem is that svc_alloc_arg never allocates that many pages. To address this: 1. The final element of rq_pages always points to NULL. To accommodate up to 259 pages in rq_pages, add an extra element to rq_pages for the array termination sentinel. 2. Adjust the calculation of "pages" to match how RPCSVC_MAXPAGES is calculated, so it can go up to 259. Bruce noted that the calculation assumes sv_max_mesg is a multiple of PAGE_SIZE, which might not always be true. I didn't change this assumption. 3. Change the loop boundaries to allow 259 pages to be allocated. Additional clean-up: WARN_ON_ONCE adds an extra conditional branch, which is basically never taken. And there's no need to dump the stack here because svc_alloc_arg has only one caller. Keeping that NULL "array termination sentinel"; there doesn't appear to be any code that depends on it, only code in nfsd_splice_actor() which needs the 259th element to be initialized to *something*. So it's possible we could just keep the array at 259 elements and drop that final NULL, but we're being conservative for now. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields
