NFSv4.1: pnfs: filelayout: add driver's LAYOUTGET and GETDEVICEINFO infrastructure

2010-10-24T22:07:11Z

Implement the driver's io_ops->alloc_lseg and free_lseg functions, which integrate into the deviceid cache and calls out to nfs4_proc_getdeviceinfo when necessary.

NFS: client needs to maintain list of inodes with active layouts

2010-10-24T22:07:10Z

In particular, server reboot will invalidate all layouts. Note that in order to have an active layout, we must get a successful response from the server. To avoid adding that machinery, this patch just includes a stub that fakes up a successful return. Since the layout is never referenced for io, this is not a problem.

NFS: set layout driver

2010-10-24T22:07:10Z

Put in the infrastructure that uses information returned from the server at mount to select a layout driver module. In this patch, a stub is used that always returns "no driver found".

Revalidate caches on lock

2010-10-24T21:59:56Z

Instead of blindly zapping the caches, attempt to revalidate them if the server has indicated that it uses high resolution timestamps. NFSv4 should be able to always revalidate the cache since the protocol requires the update of the change attribute on modification of the data. In reality, there are servers (the Linux NFS server for example) that do not obey this requirement and use ctime as the basis for change attribute. Long term, the server needs to be fixed. At this time, and to be on the safe side, continue zapping caches if the server indicates that it does not have a high resolution timestamp.

NFS: Readdir plus in v4

2010-10-23T19:27:37Z

By requsting more attributes during a readdir, we can mimic the readdir plus operation that was in NFSv3. To test, I ran the command `ls -lU --color=none` on directories with various numbers of files. Without readdir plus, I see this: n files | 100 | 1,000 | 10,000 | 100,000 | 1,000,000 --------+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+---------- real | 0m00.153s | 0m00.589s | 0m05.601s | 0m56.691s | 9m59.128s user | 0m00.007s | 0m00.007s | 0m00.077s | 0m00.703s | 0m06.800s sys | 0m00.010s | 0m00.070s | 0m00.633s | 0m06.423s | 1m10.005s access | 3 | 1 | 1 | 4 | 31 getattr | 2 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 lookup | 104 | 1,003 | 10,003 | 100,003 | 1,000,003 readdir | 2 | 16 | 158 | 1,575 | 15,749 total | 111 | 1,021 | 10,163 | 101,583 | 1,015,784 With readdir plus enabled, I see this: n files | 100 | 1,000 | 10,000 | 100,000 | 1,000,000 --------+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+---------- real | 0m00.115s | 0m00.206s | 0m01.079s | 0m12.521s | 2m07.528s user | 0m00.003s | 0m00.003s | 0m00.040s | 0m00.290s | 0m03.296s sys | 0m00.007s | 0m00.020s | 0m00.120s | 0m01.357s | 0m17.556s access | 3 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 7 getattr | 2 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 lookup | 4 | 3 | 3 | 3 | 3 readdir | 6 | 62 | 630 | 6,300 | 62,993 total | 15 | 67 | 635 | 6,305 | 63,004 Readdir plus disabled has about a 16x increase in the number of rpc calls and is 4 - 5 times slower on large directories.

NFS: readdir with vmapped pages

2010-10-23T19:27:35Z

We can use vmapped pages to read more information from the network at once. This will reduce the number of calls needed to complete a readdir. Signed-off-by: Bryan Schumaker [trondmy: Added #include for linux/vmalloc.h> in fs/nfs/dir.c] Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust
