44b11874ff NFS: Separate metadata and page cache revalidation mechanisms
Separate out the function of revalidating the inode metadata, and
revalidating the mapping. The former may be called by lookup(),
and only really needs to check that permissions, ctime, etc haven't changed
whereas the latter needs only done when we want to read data from the page
cache, and may need to sync and then invalidate the mapping.

4b6a9316fa [PATCH] cpuset memory spread: slab cache filesystems
Mark file system inode and similar slab caches subject to SLAB_MEM_SPREAD
memory spreading.

If a slab cache is marked SLAB_MEM_SPREAD, then anytime that a task that's
in a cpuset with the 'memory_spread_slab' option enabled goes to allocate
from such a slab cache, the allocations are spread evenly over all the
memory nodes (task->mems_allowed) allowed to that task, instead of favoring
allocation on the node local to the current cpu.

The following inode and similar caches are marked SLAB_MEM_SPREAD:

    file                               cache

    net/sunrpc/rpc_pipe.c              rpc_inode_cache

The choice of which slab caches to so mark was quite simple.  I marked
those already marked SLAB_RECLAIM_ACCOUNT, except for fs/xfs, dentry_cache,
inode_cache, and buffer_head, which were marked in a previous patch.  Even
though SLAB_RECLAIM_ACCOUNT is for a different purpose, it marks the same
potentially large file system i/o related slab caches as we need for memory
spreading.

Given that the rule now becomes "wherever you would have used a
SLAB_RECLAIM_ACCOUNT slab cache flag before (usually the inode cache), use
the SLAB_MEM_SPREAD flag too", this should be easy enough to maintain.
Future file system writers will just copy one of the existing file system
slab cache setups and tend to get it right without thinking.

9b04c997b1 [PATCH] vfs: MS_VERBOSE should be MS_SILENT
The meaning of MS_VERBOSE is backwards; if the bit is set, it really means,
"don't be verbose".  This is confusing and counter-intuitive.

In addition, there is also no way to set the MS_VERBOSE flag in the
mount(8) program in util-linux, but interesting, it does define options
which would do the right thing if MS_SILENT were defined, which
unfortunately we do not:

#ifdef MS_SILENT
  { "quiet",    0, 0, MS_SILENT    },   /* be quiet  */
  { "loud",     0, 1, MS_SILENT    },   /* print out messages. */
#endif

So the obvious fix is to deprecate the use of MS_VERBOSE and replace it
with MS_SILENT.

c42de9dd67 NFS: Fix a race in nfs_sync_inode()
Kudos to Neil Brown for spotting the problem:

"in nfs_sync_inode, there is effectively the sequence:

   nfs_wait_on_requests
   nfs_flush_inode
   nfs_commit_inode

 This seems a bit racy to me as if the only requests are on the
 ->commit list, and nfs_commit_inode is called separately after
 nfs_wait_on_requests completes, and before nfs_commit_inode start
 (say: by nfs_write_inode) then none of these function will return
 >0, yet there will be some pending request that aren't waited for."

The solution is to search for requests to wait upon, search for dirty
requests, and search for uncommitted requests while holding the
nfsi->req_lock

The patch also cleans up nfs_sync_inode(), getting rid of the redundant
FLUSH_WAIT flag. It turns out that we were always setting it.

fc33a7bb9c [PATCH] per-mountpoint noatime/nodiratime
Turn noatime and nodiratime into per-mount instead of per-sb flags.

After all the preparations this is a rather trivial patch.  The mount code
needs to treat the two options as per-mount instead of per-superblock, and
touch_atime needs to be changed to check the new MNT_ flags in addition to
the MS_ flags that are kept for filesystems that are always
noatime/nodiratime but not user settable anymore.  Besides that core code
only nfs needed an update because it's leaving atime updates to the server
and thus sets the S_NOATIME flag on every inode, but needs to know whether
it's a real noatime mount for an getattr optimization.

While we're at it I've killed the IS_NOATIME/IS_NODIRATIME macros that were
only used by touch_atime.

28fd129827 [PATCH] Fix and add EXPORT_SYMBOL(filemap_write_and_wait)
This patch add EXPORT_SYMBOL(filemap_write_and_wait) and use it.

See mm/filemap.c:

And changes the filemap_write_and_wait() and filemap_write_and_wait_range().

Current filemap_write_and_wait() doesn't wait if filemap_fdatawrite()
returns error.  However, even if filemap_fdatawrite() returned an
error, it may have submitted the partially data pages to the device.
(e.g. in the case of -ENOSPC)

<quotation>
Andrew Morton writes,

If filemap_fdatawrite() returns an error, this might be due to some
I/O problem: dead disk, unplugged cable, etc.  Given the generally
crappy quality of the kernel's handling of such exceptions, there's a
good chance that the filemap_fdatawait() will get stuck in D state
forever.
</quotation>

So, this patch doesn't wait if filemap_fdatawrite() returns the -EIO.

Trond, could you please review the nfs part?  Especially I'm not sure,
nfs must use the "filemap_fdatawrite(inode->i_mapping) == 0", or not.

40859d7ee6 NFS: support large reads and writes on the wire
Most NFS server implementations allow up to 64KB reads and writes on the

 Now the Linux NFS client supports transfer sizes up to 1MB, too.  This will
 help reduce protocol and context switch overhead on read/write intensive NFS
 workloads, and support larger atomic read and write operations on servers
 that support them.

dc20f80390 NFS: get rid of useless kernel log message
nfs_statfs() generates a log message when GETATTR returns an error.  This
 is usually a useless message.  Make it a dprintk.

24aa1fe677 NFS: Fix a few further cache consistency regressions
Steve Dickson writes:
 Doing the following:
 1. On server:
 $ mkdir ~/t
 $ echo Hello > ~/t/tmp

 2. On client, wait for a string to appear in this file:
 $ until grep -q foo t/tmp ; do echo -n . ; sleep 1 ; done

 3. On server, create a *new* file with the same name containing that
 string:
 $ mv ~/t/tmp ~/t/tmp.old; echo foo > ~/t/tmp

 will show how the client will never (and I mean never ;-) ) see
 the updated file.

 The problem is that we do not update nfsi->cache_change_attribute when the
 file changes on the server (we only update it when our client makes the
 changes). This again means that functions like nfs_check_verifier() will
 fail to register when the parent directory has changed and should trigger
 a dentry lookup revalidation.

223db122bf NFS: Fix cache consistency regression
Make sure cache_change_attribute is initialized to jiffies
 so when the mtime changes on directory, the directory
 will be refreshed.

b37b03b705 NFS: Fix a spinlock recursion inside nfs_update_inode()
In cases where the server has gone insane, nfs_update_inode() may end
 up calling nfs_invalidate_inode(), which again calls stuff that takes
 the inode->i_lock that we're already holding.

 In addition, given the sort of things we have in NFS these days that
 need to be cleaned up on inode release, I'm not sure we should ever
 be calling make_bad_inode().

 Fix up spinlock recursion, and limit nfs_invalidate_inode() to clearing
 the caches, and marking the inode as being stale.

 Thanks to Steve Dickson <SteveD@redhat.com> for spotting this.

d530838bfa NFSv4: Fix problem with OPEN_DOWNGRADE
RFC 3530 states that for OPEN_DOWNGRADE "The share_access and share_deny
 bits specified must be exactly equal to the union of the share_access and
 share_deny bits specified for some subset of the OPENs in effect for
 current openowner on the current file.

 Setattr is currently violating the NFSv4 rules for OPEN_DOWNGRADE in that
 it may cause a downgrade from OPEN4_SHARE_ACCESS_BOTH to
 OPEN4_SHARE_ACCESS_WRITE despite the fact that there exists no open file
 with O_WRONLY access mode.

 Fix the problem by replacing nfs4_find_state() with a modified version of
 nfs_find_open_context().

decf491f30 NFS: Don't let nfs_end_data_update() clobber attribute update information
Since we almost always call nfs_end_data_update() after we called
 nfs_refresh_inode(), we now end up marking the inode metadata
 as needing revalidation immediately after having updated it.

 This patch rearranges things so that we mark the inode as needing
 revalidation _before_ we call nfs_refresh_inode() on those operations
 that need it.
