2012-10-08NFS41: send real write size in layoutgetPeng Tao
For buffer write, block layout client scan inode mapping to find next hole and use offset-to-hole as layoutget length. Object layout client uses offset-to-isize as layoutget length. For direct write, both block layout and object layout use dreq->bytes_left. Signed-off-by: Peng Tao <tao.peng@emc.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2012-08-02pnfs-obj: Better IO pattern in case of unaligned offsetBoaz Harrosh
Depending on layout and ARCH, ORE has some limits on max IO sizes which is communicated on (what else) ore_layout->max_io_length, which is always stripe aligned. This was considered as the pg_test boundary for splitting and starting a new IO. But in the case of a long IO where the start offset is not aligned what would happen is that both end of IO[N] and start of IO[N+1] would be unaligned, causing each IO boundary parity unit to be calculated and written twice. So what we do in this patch is split the very start of an unaligned IO, up to a stripe boundary, and then next IO's can continue fully aligned til the end. We might be sacrificing the case where the full unaligned IO would fit within a single max_io_length, but the sacrifice is well worth the elimination of double calculation and parity units IO. Actually the sacrificing is marginal and is almost unmeasurable. TODO: If we know the total expected linear segment that will be received, at pg_init, we could use that information in many places: 1. blocks-layout get_layout write segment size 2. Better mds-threshold 3. In above situation for a better clean split I will do this in future submission.

2012-07-20pnfs-obj: Fix __r4w_get_page when offset is beyond i_sizeBoaz Harrosh
It is very common for the end of the file to be unaligned on stripe size. But since we know it's beyond file's end then the XOR should be preformed with all zeros. Old code used to just read zeros out of the OSD devices, which is a great waist. But what scares me more about this situation is that, we now have pages attached to the file's mapping that are beyond i_size. I don't like the kind of bugs this calls for. Fix both birds, by returning a global zero_page, if offset is beyond i_size. TODO: Change the API to ->__r4w_get_page() so a NULL can be returned without being considered as error, since XOR API treats NULL entries as zero_pages. [Bug since 3.2.

2012-04-27NFS: create common nfs_pgio_header for both read and writeFred Isaman
In order to avoid duplicating all the data in nfs_read_data whenever we split it up into multiple RPC calls (either due to a short read result or due to rsize < PAGE_SIZE), we split out the bits that are the same per RPC call into a separate "header" structure. The goal this patch moves towards is to have a single header refcounted by several rpc_data structures. Thus, want to always refer from rpc_data to the header, and not the other way. This patch comes close to that ideal, but the directio code currently needs some special casing, isolated in the nfs_direct_[read_write]hdr_release() functions. This will be dealt with in a future patch. Signed-off-by: Fred Isaman <iisaman@netapp.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

2012-03-21pnfs-obj: autologin: Add support for protocol autologinSachin Bhamare
The pnfs-objects protocol mandates that we autologin into devices not present in the system, according to information specified in the get_device_info returned from the server. The Protocol specifies two login hints. 1. An IP address:port combination 2. A string URI which is constructed as a URL with a protocol prefix followed by :// and a string as address. For each protocol prefix the string-address format might be different. We only support the second option. The first option is just redundant to the second one. NOTE: The Kernel part of autologin does not parse the URI string. It just channels it to a user-mode script. So any new login protocols should only update the user-mode script which is a part of the nfs-utils package, but the Kernel need not change. We implement the autologin by using the call_usermodehelper() API. (Thanks to Steve Dickson <steved@redhat.com> for pointing it out) So there is no running daemon needed, and/or special setup. We Add the osd_login_prog Kernel module parameters which defaults to: /sbin/osd_login Kernel try's to upcall the program specified in osd_login_prog. If the file is not found or the execution fails Kernel will disable any farther upcalls, by zeroing out osd_login_prog, Until Admin re-enables it by setting the osd_login_prog parameter to a proper program.

Since then any use of "variable length arrays" has become blasphemous. Even in perfectly good, beautiful, perfectly safe code like the one below where the variable length arrays are only used as a sizeof() parameter, for type-safe dynamic structure allocations. GCC is not executing any stack allocation code. I have produced a small file which defines two functions main1(unsigned numdevs) and main2(unsigned numdevs). main1 uses code as before with call to malloc and main2 uses code as of after this patch. I compiled it as: gcc -O2 -S see_asm.c and here is what I get: <see_asm.s> main1: .LFB7: .cfi_startproc mov %edi, %edi leaq 4(%rdi,%rdi), %rdi salq $3, %rdi jmp malloc .cfi_endproc .LFE7: .size main1, .-main1 .p2align 4,,15 .globl main2 .type main2, @function main2: .LFB8: .cfi_startproc mov %edi, %edi addq $2, %rdi salq $4, %rdi jmp malloc .cfi_endproc .LFE8: .size main2, .-main2 .section .text.startup,"ax",@progbits .p2align 4,,15 </see_asm.s> *Exact* same code !!!

2012-01-06pnfs-obj: Must return layout on IO errorBoaz Harrosh
As mandated by the standard. In case of an IO error, a pNFS objects layout driver must return it's layout. This is because all device errors are reported to the server as part of the layout return buffer. This is implemented the same way PNFS_LAYOUTRET_ON_SETATTR is done, through a bit flag on the pnfs_layoutdriver_type->flags member. The flag is set by the layout driver that wants a layout_return preformed at pnfs_ld_{write,read}_done in case of an error. (Though I have not defined a wrapper like pnfs_ld_layoutret_on_setattr because this code is never called outside of pnfs.c and pnfs IO paths) Without this patch 3.[0-2] Kernels leak memory and have an annoying WARN_ON after every IO error utilizing the pnfs-obj driver.

2011-11-03pnfs-obj: Get rid of objlayout_{alloc,free}_io_stateBoaz Harrosh
This is part of moving objio_osd to use the ORE. objlayout_io_state had two functions: 1. It was used in the error reporting mechanism at layout_return. This function is kept intact. (Later patch will rename objlayout_io_state => objlayout_io_res) 2. Carrier of rw io members into the objio_read/write_paglist API. This is removed in this patch. The {r,w}data received from NFS are passed directly to the objio_{read,write}_paglist API. The io_engine is now allocating it's own IO state as part of the read/write. The minimal functionality that was part of the generic allocation is passed to the io_engine. So part of this patch is rename of: ios->ol_state.foo => ios->foo At objlayout_{read,write}_done an objlayout_io_state is passed that denotes the result of the IO. (Hence the later name change). If the IO is successful objlayout calls an objio_free_result() API immediately (Which for objio_osd causes the release of the io_state). If the IO ended in an error it is hanged onto until reported in layout_return and is released later through the objio_free_result() API.

(Which can currently happen only when all IO is going to a single device .e.g group_width==1) then the IO is submitted short and we report back only the amount of bytes we actually wrote/read and all is fine. BUT ... There was a bug that the current length counter was advanced before the fail to add the extra page, and we come to a situation that the CDB length was one-page longer then the actual bio size, which is of course rejected by the osd-target.
