b22602a673 SUNRPC: Ensure all transports set rq_xtime consistently
The RPC client uses the rq_xtime field in each RPC request to determine the
round-trip time of the request.  Currently, the rq_xtime field is
initialized by each transport just before it starts enqueing a request to
be sent.  However, transports do not handle initializing this value
consistently; sometimes they don't initialize it at all.

To make the measurement of request round-trip time consistent for all
RPC client transport capabilities, pull rq_xtime initialization into the
RPC client's generic transport logic.  Now all transports will get a
standardized RTT measure automatically, from:

  xprt_transmit()

to

  xprt_complete_rqst()

This makes round-trip time calculation more accurate for the TCP transport.
The socket ->sendmsg() method can return "-EAGAIN" if the socket's output
buffer is full, so the TCP transport's ->send_request() method may call
the ->sendmsg() method repeatedly until it gets all of the request's bytes
queued in the socket's buffer.

Currently, the TCP transport sets the rq_xtime field every time through
that loop so the final value is the timestamp just before the *last* call
to the underlying socket's ->sendmsg() method.  After this patch, the
rq_xtime field contains a timestamp that reflects the time just before the
*first* call to ->sendmsg().

This is consequential under heavy workloads because large requests often
take multiple ->sendmsg() calls to get all the bytes of a request queued.
The TCP transport causes the request to sleep until the remote end of the
socket has received enough bytes to clear space in the socket's local
output buffer.  This delay can be quite significant.

The method introduced by this patch is a more accurate measure of RTT
for stream transports, since the server can cause enough back pressure
to delay (ie increase the latency of) requests from the client.

Additionally, this patch corrects the behavior of the RDMA transport, which
entirely neglected to initialize the rq_xtime field.  RPC performance
metrics for RDMA transports now display correct RPC request round trip
times.

7c1d71cf56 SUNRPC: Don't disconnect more than once if retransmitting NFSv4 requests
NFSv4 requires us to ensure that we break the TCP connection before we're
allowed to retransmit a request. However in the case where we're
retransmitting several requests that have been sent on the same
connection, we need to ensure that we don't interfere with the attempt to
reconnect and/or break the connection again once it has been established.

We therefore introduce a 'connection' cookie that is bumped every time a
connection is broken. This allows requests to track if they need to force a
disconnection.

1e799b673c SUNRPC: Fix read ordering problems with req->rq_private_buf.len
We want to ensure that req->rq_private_buf.len is updated before
req->rq_received, so that call_decode() doesn't use an old value for
req->rq_rcv_buf.len.

In 'call_decode()' itself, instead of using task->tk_status (which is set
using req->rq_received) must use the actual value of
req->rq_private_buf.len when deciding whether or not the received RPC reply
is too short.

Finally ensure that we set req->rq_rcv_buf.len to zero when retrying a
request. A typo meant that we were resetting req->rq_private_buf.len in
call_decode(), and then clobbering that value with the old rq_rcv_buf.len
again in xprt_transmit().

b6ddf64ffe SUNRPC: Fix up xprt_write_space()
The rest of the networking layer uses SOCK_ASYNC_NOSPACE to signal whether
or not we have someone waiting for buffer memory. Convert the SUNRPC layer
to use the same idiom.
Remove the unlikely()s in xs_udp_write_space and xs_tcp_write_space. In
fact, the most common case will be that there is nobody waiting for buffer
space.

SOCK_NOSPACE is there to tell the TCP layer whether or not the cwnd was
limited by the application window. Ensure that we follow the same idiom as
the rest of the networking layer here too.

Finally, ensure that we clear SOCK_ASYNC_NOSPACE once we wake up, so that
write_space() doesn't keep waking things up on xprt->pending.

5d00837b90 SUNRPC: Run rpc timeout functions as callbacks instead of in softirqs
An audit of the current RPC timeout functions shows that they don't really
ever need to run in the softirq context. As long as the softirq is
able to signal that the wakeup is due to a timeout (which it can do by
setting task->tk_status to -ETIMEDOUT) then the callback functions can just
run as standard task->tk_callback functions (in the rpciod/process
context).

The only possible border-line case would be xprt_timer() for the case of
UDP, when the callback is used to reduce the size of the transport
congestion window. In testing, however, the effect of moving that update
to a callback would appear to be minor.

c1384c9c4c SUNRPC: fix hang due to eventd deadlock...
Brian Behlendorf writes:

The root cause of the NFS hang we were observing appears to be a rare
deadlock between the kernel provided usermodehelper API and the linux NFS
client.  The deadlock can arise because both of these services use the
generic linux work queues.  The usermodehelper API run the specified user
application in the context of the work queue.  And NFS submits both cleanup
and reconnect work to the generic work queue for handling.  Normally this
is fine but a deadlock can result in the following situation.

  - NFS client is in a disconnected state
  - [events/0] runs a usermodehelper app with an NFS dependent operation,
    this triggers an NFS reconnect.
  - NFS reconnect happens to be submitted to [events/0] work queue.
  - Deadlock, the [events/0] work queue will never process the
    reconnect because it is blocked on the previous NFS dependent
    operation which will not complete.`

The solution is simply to run reconnect requests on rpciod.

2bea90d43a SUNRPC: RPC buffer size estimates are too large
The RPC buffer size estimation logic in net/sunrpc/clnt.c always
significantly overestimates the requirements for the buffer size.
A little instrumentation demonstrated that in fact rpc_malloc was never
allocating the buffer from the mempool, but almost always called kmalloc.

To compute the size of the RPC buffer more precisely, split p_bufsiz into
two fields; one for the argument size, and one for the result size.

Then, compute the sum of the exact call and reply header sizes, and split
the RPC buffer precisely between the two.  That should keep almost all RPC
buffers within the 2KiB buffer mempool limit.

And, we can finally be rid of RPC_SLACK_SPACE!

241c39b9ac RPC: Fix the TCP resend semantics for NFSv4
Fix a regression due to the patch "NFS: disconnect before retrying NFSv4
requests over TCP"

The assumption made in xprt_transmit() that the condition
	"req->rq_bytes_sent == 0 and request is on the receive list"
should imply that we're dealing with a retransmission is false.
Firstly, it may simply happen that the socket send queue was full
at the time the request was initially sent through xprt_transmit().
Secondly, doing this for each request that was retransmitted implies
that we disconnect and reconnect for _every_ request that happened to
be retransmitted irrespective of whether or not a disconnection has
already occurred.

Fix is to move this logic into the call_status request timeout handler.

43d78ef2ba NFS: disconnect before retrying NFSv4 requests over TCP
RFC3530 section 3.1.1 states an NFSv4 client MUST NOT send a request
twice on the same connection unless it is the NULL procedure.  Section
3.1.1 suggests that the client should disconnect and reconnect if it
wants to retry a request.

Implement this by adding an rpc_clnt flag that an ULP can use to
specify that the underlying transport should be disconnected on a
major timeout.  The NFSv4 client asserts this new flag, and requests
no retries after a minor retransmit timeout.

Note that disconnecting on a retransmit is in general not safe to do
if the RPC client does not reuse the TCP port number when reconnecting.

65f27f3844 WorkStruct: Pass the work_struct pointer instead of context data
Pass the work_struct pointer to the work function rather than context data.
The work function can use container_of() to work out the data.

For the cases where the container of the work_struct may go away the moment the
pending bit is cleared, it is made possible to defer the release of the
structure by deferring the clearing of the pending bit.

To make this work, an extra flag is introduced into the management side of the
work_struct.  This governs auto-release of the structure upon execution.

Ordinarily, the work queue executor would release the work_struct for further
scheduling or deallocation by clearing the pending bit prior to jumping to the
work function.  This means that, unless the driver makes some guarantee itself
that the work_struct won't go away, the work function may not access anything
else in the work_struct or its container lest they be deallocated..  This is a
problem if the auxiliary data is taken away (as done by the last patch).

However, if the pending bit is *not* cleared before jumping to the work
function, then the work function *may* access the work_struct and its container
with no problems.  But then the work function must itself release the
work_struct by calling work_release().

In most cases, automatic release is fine, so this is the default.  Special
initiators exist for the non-auto-release case (ending in _NAR).

da45828e28 SUNRPC: Clean up soft task error handling
- Ensure that the task aborts the RPC call only when it has actually timed out.
 - Ensure that req->rq_majortimeo is initialised correctly.

ff9aa5e56d SUNRPC: Eliminate xprt_create_proto and rpc_create_client
The two function call API for creating a new RPC client is now obsolete.
Remove it.

Also, remove an unnecessary check to see whether the caller is capable of
using privileged network services.  The kernel RPC client always uses a
privileged ephemeral port by default; callers are responsible for checking
the authority of users to make use of any RPC service, or for specifying
that a nonprivileged port is acceptable.

Test plan:
Repeated runs of Connectathon locking suite.  Check network trace to ensure
correctness of NLM requests and replies.

c2866763b4 SUNRPC: use sockaddr + size when creating remote transport endpoints
Prepare for more generic transport endpoint handling needed by transports
that might use different forms of addressing, such as IPv6.

Introduce a single function call to replace the two-call
xprt_create_proto/rpc_create_client API.  Define a new rpc_create_args
structure that allows callers to pass in remote endpoint addresses of
varying length.

Test-plan:
Compile kernel with CONFIG_NFS enabled.

c4efcb1d3e SUNRPC: Use "sockaddr_storage" for storing RPC client's remote peer address
IPv6 addresses are big (128 bytes).  Now that no RPC client consumers treat
the addr field in rpc_xprt structs as an opaque, and access it only via the
API calls, we can safely widen the field in the rpc_xprt struct to
accomodate larger addresses.

Test plan:
Compile kernel with CONFIG_NFS enabled.

4a68179d38 SUNRPC: Make RPC portmapper use per-transport storage
Move connection and bind state that was maintained in the rpc_clnt
structure to the rpc_xprt structure.  This will allow the creation of
a clean API for plugging in different types of bind mechanisms.

This brings improvements such as the elimination of a single spin lock to
control serialization for all in-kernel RPC binding.  A set of per-xprt
bitops is used to serialize tasks during RPC binding, just like it now
works for making RPC transport connections.

Test-plan:
Destructive testing (unplugging the network temporarily).  Connectathon
with UDP and TCP.  NFSv2/3 and NFSv4 mounting should be carefully checked.
Probably need to rig a server where certain services aren't running, or
that returns an error for some typical operation.

ec739ef03d SUNRPC: Create a helper to tell whether a transport is bound
Hide the contents and format of xprt->addr by eliminating direct uses
of the xprt->addr.sin_port field.  This change is required to support
alternate RPC host address formats (eg IPv6).

e0ab53deaa RPC: Ensure that we disconnect TCP socket when client requests error out
If we're part way through transmitting a TCP request, and the client
errors, then we need to disconnect and reconnect the TCP socket in order to
avoid confusing the server.
