* 9p: Add fscache support to 9pAbhishek Kulkarni2009-09-231-21/+175
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds a persistent, read-only caching facility for 9p clients using the FS-Cache caching backend. When the fscache facility is enabled, each inode is associated with a corresponding vcookie which is an index into the FS-Cache indexing tree. The FS-Cache indexing tree is indexed at 3 levels: - session object associated with each mount. - inode/vcookie - actual data (pages) A cache tag is chosen randomly for each session. These tags can be read off /sys/fs/9p/caches and can be passed as a mount-time parameter to re-attach to the specified caching session.

* 9p: remove unnecessary v9fses->options which duplicates the mount stringAbhishek Kulkarni2009-08-171-16/+5
| | | | | | | | | | The mount options string is saved in sb->s_options. This patch removes the redundant duplicating of the mount options. Also, since we are not displaying anything special in show options, we replace v9fs_show_options with generic_show_options for now.

* fs/9p: change simple_strtol to simple_strtoulJulia Lawall2008-12-191-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since v9ses->uid is unsigned, it would seem better to use simple_strtoul that simple_strtol. A simplified version of the semantic patch that makes this change is as follows: (http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/) // <smpl> @r2@ long e; position p; @@ e = simple_strtol@p(...) @@ position p != r2.p; type T; T e; @@ e = - simple_strtol@p + simple_strtoul (...) // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Acked-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>
* 9p: move readn meta-function from client to fs layerEric Van Hensbergen2008-10-171-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are a couple of methods in the client code which aren't actually wire operations. To keep things organized cleaner, these operations are being moved to the fs layer. This patch moves the readn meta-function (which executes multiple wire reads until a buffer is full) to the fs layer. Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>
* 9p: consolidate transport structureEric Van Hensbergen2008-10-171-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Right now there is a transport module structure which provides per-transport type functions and data and a transport structure which contains per-instance public data as well as function pointers to instance specific functions. This patch moves public transport visible instance data to the client structure (which in some cases had duplicate data) and consolidates the functions into the transport module structure.

* vfs: Use const for kernel parser tableSteven Whitehouse2008-10-131-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a much better version of a previous patch to make the parser tables constant. Rather than changing the typedef, we put the "const" in all the various places where its required, allowing the __initconst exception for nfsroot which was the cause of the previous trouble. This was posted for review some time ago and I believe its been in -mm since then.

* 9p: fix error path during early mountEric Van Hensbergen2008-05-141-6/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | There was some cleanup issues during early mount which would trigger a kernel bug for certain types of failure. This patch reorganizes the cleanup to get rid of the bad behavior. This also merges the 9pnet and 9pnet_fd modules for the purpose of configuration and initialization. Keeping the fd transport separate from the core 9pnet code seemed like a good idea at the time, but in practice has caused more harm and confusion than good.

* add match_strlcpy() us it to make v9fs make uname and remotename parsing ↵Markus Armbruster2008-05-141-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | more robust match_strcpy() is a somewhat creepy function: the caller needs to make sure that the destination buffer is big enough, and when he screws up or forgets, match_strcpy() happily overruns the buffer. There's exactly one customer: v9fs_parse_options(). I believe it currently can't overflow its buffer, but that's not exactly obvious. The source string is a substing of the mount options. The kernel silently truncates those to PAGE_SIZE bytes, including the terminating zero. See compat_sys_mount() and do_mount(). The destination buffer is obtained from __getname(), which allocates from name_cachep, which is initialized by vfs_caches_init() for size PATH_MAX. We're safe as long as PATH_MAX <= PAGE_SIZE. PATH_MAX is 4096. As far as I know, the smallest PAGE_SIZE is also 4096. Here's a patch that makes the code a bit more obviously correct. It doesn't depend on PATH_MAX <= PAGE_SIZE.

* 9p: use copy of the options value instead of originalLatchesar Ionkov2007-11-061-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | v9fs_parse_options function uses strsep which modifies the value of the v9ses->options field. That modified value is later passed to the function that creates the transport potentially making the transport creation function to fail. This patch creates a copy of v9ses->option field that v9fs_parse_options function uses instead of the original value.

* 9p: attach-per-userLatchesar Ionkov2007-10-171-15/+52
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The 9P2000 protocol requires the authentication and permission checks to be done in the file server. For that reason every user that accesses the file server tree has to authenticate and attach to the server separately. Multiple users can share the same connection to the server. Currently v9fs does a single attach and executes all I/O operations as a single user. This makes using v9fs in multiuser environment unsafe as it depends on the client doing the permission checking. This patch improves the 9P2000 support by allowing every user to attach separately. The patch defines three modes of access (new mount option 'access'): - attach-per-user (access=user) (default mode for 9P2000.u) If a user tries to access a file served by v9fs for the first time, v9fs sends an attach command to the server (Tattach) specifying the user. If the attach succeeds, the user can access the v9fs tree. As there is no uname->uid (string->integer) mapping yet, this mode works only with the 9P2000.u dialect. - allow only one user to access the tree (access=<uid>) Only the user with uid can access the v9fs tree. Other users that attempt to access it will get EPERM error. - do all operations as a single user (access=any) (default for 9P2000) V9fs does a single attach and all operations are done as a single user. If this mode is selected, the v9fs behavior is identical with the current one. Signed-off-by: Latchesar Ionkov <lucho@ionkov.net> Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | This patchset moves non-filesystem interfaces of v9fs from fs/9p to net/9p. It moves the transport, packet marshalling and connection layers to net/9p leaving only the VFS related files in fs/9p.

* 9p: implement optional loose read cacheEric Van Hensbergen2007-02-181-1/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While cacheing is generally frowned upon in the 9p world, it has its place -- particularly in situations where the remote file system is exclusive and/or read-only. The vacfs views of venti content addressable store are a real-world instance of such a situation. To facilitate higher performance for these workloads (and eventually use the fscache patches), we have enabled a "loose" cache mode which does not attempt to maintain any form of consistency on the page-cache or dcache. This results in over two orders of magnitude performance improvement for cacheable block reads in the Bonnie benchmark. The more aggressive use of the dcache also seems to improve metadata operational performance. Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>

* [PATCH] 9p: fix name consistency problemsEric Van Hensbergen2006-03-251-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There were a number of conflicting naming schemes used in the v9fs project. The directory was fs/9p, but MAINTAINERS and Documentation referred to v9fs. The module name itself was 9p2000, and the file system type was 9P. This patch attempts to clean that up, changing all references to 9p in order to match the directory name. We'll also start using 9p instead of v9fs as our patch prefix. There is also a minor consistency cleanup in the options changing the name option to uname in order to more closely match the Plan 9 options.

* [PATCH] v9fs: simplify fid mappingEric Van Hensbergen2006-03-021-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | v9fs has been plagued by an over-complicated approach trying to map Linux dentry semantics to Plan 9 fid semantics. Our previous approach called for aggressive flushing of the dcache resulting in several problems (including wierd cwd behavior when running /bin/pwd). This patch dramatically simplifies our handling of this fid management. Fids will not be clunked as promptly, but the new approach is more functionally correct. We now clunk un-open fids only when their dentry ref_count reaches 0 (and d_delete is called). Another simplification is we no longer seek to match fids to the process-id or uid of the action initiator. The uid-matching will need to be revisited when we fix the security model.
