nfs: fix pnfs direct write memory leak

2014-11-21T17:23:12+00:00

commit 8c393f9a721c30a030049a680e1bf896669bb279 upstream. For pNFS direct writes, layout driver may dynamically allocate ds_cinfo.buckets. So we need to take care to free them when freeing dreq. Ideally this needs to be done inside layout driver where ds_cinfo.buckets are allocated. But buckets are attached to dreq and reused across LD IO iterations. So I feel it's OK to free them in the generic layer. Signed-off-by: Peng Tao Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

nfs: merge nfs_pgio_data into _header

2014-06-24T22:47:00+00:00

struct nfs_pgio_data only exists as a member of nfs_pgio_header, but is passed around everywhere, because there used to be multiple _data structs per _header. Many of these functions then use the _data to find a pointer to the _header. This patch cleans this up by merging the nfs_pgio_data structure into nfs_pgio_header and passing nfs_pgio_header around instead.

nfs: move nfs_pgio_data and remove nfs_rw_header

2014-06-24T22:46:59+00:00

nfs_rw_header was used to allocate an nfs_pgio_header along with an nfs_pgio_data, because a _header would need at least one _data. Now there is only ever one nfs_pgio_data for each nfs_pgio_header -- move it to nfs_pgio_header and get rid of nfs_rw_header.

Pull vfs updates from Al Viro: "This the bunch that sat in -next + lock_parent() fix. This is the minimal set; there's more pending stuff. In particular, I really hope to get acct.c fixes merged this cycle - we need that to deal sanely with delayed-mntput stuff.

pnfs: support multiple verfs per direct req

2014-05-29T15:11:48+00:00

Support direct requests that span multiple pnfs data servers by comparing nfs_pgio_header->verf to a cached verf in pnfs_commit_bucket. Continue to use dreq->verf if the MDS is used / non-pNFS. Signed-off-by: Weston Andros Adamson Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust

nfs: add support for multiple nfs reqs per page

2014-05-29T15:11:44+00:00

Add "page groups" - a circular list of nfs requests (struct nfs_page) that all reference the same page. This gives nfs read and write paths the ability to account for sub-page regions independently. This somewhat follows the design of struct buffer_head's sub-page accounting. Only "head" requests are ever added/removed from the inode list in the buffered write path. "head" and "sub" requests are treated the same through the read path and the rest of the write/commit path. Requests are given an extra reference across the life of the list. Page groups are never rejoined after being split. If the read/write request fails and the client falls back to another path (ie revert to MDS in PNFS case), the already split requests are pushed through the recoalescing code again, which may split them further and then coalesce them into properly sized requests on the wire. Fragmentation shouldn't be a problem with the current design, because we flush all requests in page group when a non-contiguous request is added, so the only time resplitting should occur is on a resend of a read or write. This patch lays the groundwork for sub-page splitting, but does not actually do any splitting. For now all page groups have one request as pg_test functions don't yet split pages. There are several related patches that are needed support multiple requests per page group. Signed-off-by: Weston Andros Adamson Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust
