NFS/NFSD/SUNRPC: replace generic creds with 'struct cred'.

2018-12-19T18:52:46Z

SUNRPC has two sorts of credentials, both of which appear as "struct rpc_cred". There are "generic credentials" which are supplied by clients such as NFS and passed in 'struct rpc_message' to indicate which user should be used to authorize the request, and there are low-level credentials such as AUTH_NULL, AUTH_UNIX, AUTH_GSS which describe the credential to be sent over the wires. This patch replaces all the generic credentials by 'struct cred' pointers - the credential structure used throughout Linux. For machine credentials, there is a special 'struct cred *' pointer which is statically allocated and recognized where needed as having a special meaning. A look-up of a low-level cred will map this to a machine credential. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown Acked-by: J. Bruce Fields Signed-off-by: Anna Schumaker

page cache: Convert hole search to XArray

2018-10-21T14:46:33Z

The page cache offers the ability to search for a miss in the previous or next N locations. Rather than teach the XArray about the page cache's definition of a miss, use xas_prev() and xas_next() to search the page array. This should be more efficient as it does not have to start the lookup from the top for each index. Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox

NFS: Mark expected switch fall-throughs

In preparation to enabling -Wimplicit-fallthrough, mark switch cases where we are expecting to fall through. Warning level 2 was used: -Wimplicit-fallthrough=2 Signed-off-by: Gustavo A. R. Silva Signed-off-by: Anna Schumaker

pnfs/blocklayout: Ensure disk address in block device map

2018-01-25T21:42:35Z

It's possible that the device map is smaller than the offset into the device for the I/O we're adding. Add a check for it and bail out, otherwise we risk botching the bio calculations that follow. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Coddington Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust

pnfs/blocklayout: handle transient devices

2018-01-15T04:06:29Z

PNFS block/SCSI layouts should gracefully handle cases where block devices are not available when a layout is retrieved, or the block devices are removed while the client holds a layout. While setting up a layout segment, keep a record of an unavailable or un-parsable block device in cache with a flag so that subsequent layouts do not spam the server with GETDEVINFO. We can reuse the current NFS_DEVICEID_UNAVAILABLE handling with one variation: instead of reusing the device, we will discard it and send a fresh GETDEVINFO after the timeout, since the lookup and validation of the device occurs within the GETDEVINFO response handling. A lookup of a layout segment that references an unavailable device will return a segment with the NFS_LSEG_UNAVAILABLE flag set. This will allow the pgio layer to mark the layout with the appropriate fail bit, which forces subsequent IO to the MDS, and prevents spamming the server with LAYOUTGET, LAYOUTRETURN. Finally, when IO to a block device fails, look up the block device(s) referenced by the pgio header, and mark them as unavailable. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Coddington Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust

pnfs/blocklayout: set PNFS_LAYOUTRETURN_ON_ERROR

2018-01-15T04:06:29Z

If there's an error doing I/O to block device, and the client resends the I/O to the MDS, the MDS must recall the layout from the client before processing the I/O. Let's preempt that exchange by returning the layout before falling back to the MDS when there's an error. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Coddington Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust

pnfs/blocklayout: Add module alias for LAYOUT4_SCSI

The blocklayout module contains the client support for both block and SCSI layouts. Add a module alias for the SCSI layout type so that the module will be loaded for SCSI layouts. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Coddington Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust

block: replace bi_bdev with a gendisk pointer and partitions index

2017-08-23T18:49:55Z

This way we don't need a block_device structure to submit I/O. The block_device has different life time rules from the gendisk and request_queue and is usually only available when the block device node is open. Other callers need to explicitly create one (e.g. the lightnvm passthrough code, or the new nvme multipathing code). For the actual I/O path all that we need is the gendisk, which exists once per block device. But given that the block layer also does partition remapping we additionally need a partition index, which is used for said remapping in generic_make_request. Note that all the block drivers generally want request_queue or sometimes the gendisk, so this removes a layer of indirection all over the stack.

block: switch bios to blk_status_t

2017-06-09T15:27:32Z

Replace bi_error with a new bi_status to allow for a clear conversion. Note that device mapper overloaded bi_error with a private value, which we'll have to keep arround at least for now and thus propagate to a proper blk_status_t value. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

lib/vsprintf.c: remove %Z support

2017-02-28T02:43:47Z

Now that %z is standartised in C99 there is no reason to support %Z. Unlike %L it doesn't even make format strings smaller. Use BUILD_BUG_ON in a couple ATM drivers. In case anyone didn't notice lib/vsprintf.o is about half of SLUB which is in my opinion is quite an achievement. Hopefully this patch inspires someone else to trim vsprintf.c more.
