* pnfs: rework LAYOUTGET retry handlingJeff Layton2016-05-171-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are several problems in the way a stateid is selected for a LAYOUTGET operation: We pick a stateid to use in the RPC prepare op, but that makes it difficult to serialize LAYOUTGETs that use the open stateid. That serialization is done in pnfs_update_layout, which occurs well before the rpc_prepare operation. Between those two events, the i_lock is dropped and reacquired. pnfs_update_layout can find that the list has lsegs in it and not do any serialization, but then later pnfs_choose_layoutget_stateid ends up choosing the open stateid. This patch changes the client to select the stateid to use in the LAYOUTGET earlier, when we're searching for a usable layout segment. This way we can do it all while holding the i_lock the first time, and ensure that we serialize any LAYOUTGET call that uses a non-layout stateid. This also means a rework of how LAYOUTGET replies are handled, as we must now get the latest stateid if we want to retransmit in response to a retryable error. Most of those errors boil down to the fact that the layout state has changed in some fashion. Thus, what we really want to do is to re-search for a layout when it fails with a retryable error, so that we can avoid reissuing the RPC at all if possible. While the LAYOUTGET RPC is async, the initiating thread always waits for it to complete, so it's effectively synchronous anyway. Currently, when we need to retry a LAYOUTGET because of an error, we drive that retry via the rpc state machine. This means that once the call has been submitted, it runs until it completes. So, we must move the error handling for this RPC out of the rpc_call_done operation and into the caller. In order to handle errors like NFS4ERR_DELAY properly, we must also pass a pointer to the sliding timeout, which is now moved to the stack in pnfs_update_layout. The complicating errors are -NFS4ERR_RECALLCONFLICT and -NFS4ERR_LAYOUTTRYLATER, as those involve a timeout after which we give up and return NULL back to the caller. So, there is some special handling for those errors to ensure that the layers driving the retries can handle that appropriately.

* aio: remove retry-based AIOZach Brown2013-05-071-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This removes the retry-based AIO infrastructure now that nothing in tree is using it. We want to remove retry-based AIO because it is fundemantally unsafe. It retries IO submission from a kernel thread that has only assumed the mm of the submitting task. All other task_struct references in the IO submission path will see the kernel thread, not the submitting task. This design flaw means that nothing of any meaningful complexity can use retry-based AIO. This removes all the code and data associated with the retry machinery. The most significant benefit of this is the removal of the locking around the unused run list in the submission path.

* vfs: retry last component if opening stale dentryMiklos Szeredi2012-06-011-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | NFS optimizes away d_revalidates for last component of open. This means that open itself can find the dentry stale. This patch allows the filesystem to return EOPENSTALE and the VFS will retry the lookup on just the last component if possible. If the lookup was done using RCU mode, including the last component, then this is not possible since the parent dentry is lost. In this case fall back to non-RCU lookup. Currently this is not used since NFS will always leave RCU mode. Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
* drivercore: Add driver probe deferral mechanismGrant Likely2012-03-081-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Allow drivers to report at probe time that they cannot get all the resources required by the device, and should be retried at a later time. This should completely solve the problem of getting devices initialized in the right order. Right now this is mostly handled by mucking about with initcall ordering which is a complete hack, and doesn't even remotely handle the case where device drivers are in modules. This approach completely sidesteps the issues by allowing driver registration to occur in any order, and any driver can request to be retried after a few more other drivers get probed. v4: - Integrate Manjunath's addition of a separate workqueue - Change -EAGAIN to -EPROBE_DEFER for drivers to trigger deferral - Update comment blocks to reflect how the code really works v3: - Hold off workqueue scheduling until late_initcall so that the bulk of driver probes are complete before we start retrying deferred devices. - Tested with simple use cases. Still needs more testing though. Using it to get rid of the gpio early_initcall madness, or to replace the ASoC internal probe deferral code would be ideal. v2: - added locking so it should no longer be utterly broken in that regard - remove device from deferred list at device_del time. - Still completely untested with any real use case, but has been boot tested.

* Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds2005-04-161-0/+29
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
