1887b93529 [PATCH] knfsd: make sure nfsd doesn't hog a cpu forever
Being kernel-threads, nfsd servers don't get pre-empted (depending on
CONFIG).  If there is a steady stream of NFS requests that can be served
from cache, an nfsd thread may hold on to a cpu indefinitely, which isn't
very friendly.

So it is good to have a cond_resched in there (just before looking for a
new request to serve), to make sure we play nice.

fb286bb299 [NET]: Detect hardware rx checksum faults correctly
Here is the patch that introduces the generic skb_checksum_complete
which also checks for hardware RX checksum faults.  If that happens,
it'll call netdev_rx_csum_fault which currently prints out a stack
trace with the device name.  In future it can turn off RX checksum.

I've converted every spot under net/ that does RX checksum checks to
use skb_checksum_complete or __skb_checksum_complete with the
exceptions of:

* Those places where checksums are done bit by bit.  These will call
netdev_rx_csum_fault directly.

* The following have not been completely checked/converted:

ipmr
ip_vs
netfilter
dccp

This patch is based on patches and suggestions from Stephen Hemminger
and David S. Miller.

940e3318c3 [PATCH] SUNRPC: don't reencode when looping in call transmit.
If the call to xprt_transmit() fails due to socket buffer space
exhaustion, we do not need to re-encode the RPC message when we
loop back through call_transmit.

Re-encoding can actually end up triggering the WARN_ON() in
call_decode() if we re-encode something like a read() request and
auth->au_rslack has changed.
It can also cause us to increment the RPCSEC_GSS sequence number
beyond the limits of the allowed window.

49705b7743 [PATCH] sanitize lookup_hash prototype
->permission and ->lookup have a struct nameidata * argument these days to
pass down lookup intents.  Unfortunately some callers of lookup_hash don't
actually pass this one down.  For lookup_one_len() we don't have a struct
nameidata to pass down, but as this function is a library function only
used by filesystem code this is an acceptable limitation.  All other
callers should pass down the nameidata, so this patch changes the
lookup_hash interface to only take a struct nameidata argument and derives
the other two arguments to __lookup_hash from it.  All callers already have
the nameidata argument available so this is not a problem.

At the same time I'd like to deprecate the lookup_hash interface as there
are better exported interfaces for filesystem usage.  Before it can
actually be removed I need to fix up rpc_pipefs.

If an RPC socket is serving multiple programs, then the pg_authenticate of

24b2605bec RPCSEC_GSS: cleanup au_rslack calculation
Various xdr encode routines use au_rslack to guess where the reply argument
 will end up, so we can set up the xdr_buf to recieve data into the right place
 for zero copy.

 Currently we calculate the au_rslack estimate when we check the verifier.
 Normally this only depends on the verifier size.  In the integrity case we add
 a few bytes to allow for a length and sequence number.

 It's a bit simpler to calculate only the verifier size when we check the
 verifier, and delay the full calculation till we unwrap.

278c995c8a [PATCH] RPC,NFS: new rpc_pipefs patch
Currently rpc_mkdir/rpc_rmdir and rpc_mkpipe/mk_unlink have an API that's
 a little unfortunate.  They take a path relative to the rpc_pipefs root and
 thus need to perform a full lookup.  If you look at debugfs or usbfs they
 always store the dentry for directories they created and thus can pass in
 a dentry + single pathname component pair into their equivalents of the
 above functions.

 And in fact rpc_pipefs actually stores a dentry for all but one component so
 this change not only simplifies the core rpc_pipe code but also the callers.

 Unfortuntately this code path is only used by the NFS4 idmapper and
 AUTH_GSSAPI for which I don't have a test enviroment.  Could someone give
 it a spin?  It's the last bit needed before we can rework the
 lookup_hash API

12a804698b [PATCH] RPC: expose API for serializing access to RPC transports
The next several patches introduce an API that allows transports to
 choose whether the RPC client provides congestion control or whether
 the transport itself provides it.

 The first method we abstract is the one that serializes access to the
 RPC transport to prevent the bytes from different requests from mingling
 together.  This method provides proper request serialization and the
 opportunity to prevent new requests from being started because the
 transport is congested.

 The normal situation is for the transport to handle congestion control
 itself.  Although NFS over UDP was first, it has been recognized after
 years of experience that having the transport provide congestion control
 is much better than doing it in the RPC client.  Thus TCP, and probably
 every future transport implementation, will use the default method,
 xprt_lock_write, provided in xprt.c, which does not provide any kind
 of congestion control.  UDP can continue using the xprt.c-provided
 Van Jacobson congestion avoidance implementation.

 Test-plan:
 Use WAN simulation to cause sporadic bursty packet loss.  Look for significant
 regression in performance or client stability.

808012fbb2 [PATCH] RPC: skip over transport-specific heads automatically
Add a generic mechanism for skipping over transport-specific headers
 when constructing an RPC request.  This removes another "xprt->stream"
 dependency.

 Test-plan:
 Write-intensive workload on a single mount point (try both UDP and
 TCP).

262965f53d [PATCH] RPC: separate TCP and UDP socket write paths
Split the RPC client's main socket write path into a TCP version and a UDP
 version to eliminate another dependency on the "xprt->stream" variable.

 Compiler optimization removes unneeded code from xs_sendpages, as this
 function is now called with some constant arguments.

 We can now cleanly perform transport protocol-specific return code testing
 and error recovery in each path.

 Test-plan:
 Millions of fsx operations.  Performance characterization such as
 "sio" or "iozone".  Examine oprofile results for any changes before and
 after this patch is applied.

b0d93ad511 [PATCH] RPC: separate TCP and UDP transport connection logic
Create separate connection worker functions for managing UDP and TCP
 transport sockets.  This eliminates several dependencies on "xprt->stream".

 Test-plan:
 Destructive testing (unplugging the network temporarily).  Connectathon with
 v2, v3, and v4.

c7b2cae8a6 [PATCH] RPC: separate TCP and UDP write space callbacks
Split the socket write space callback function into a TCP version and UDP
 version, eliminating one dependence on the "xprt->stream" variable.

 Keep the common pieces of this path in xprt.c so other transports can use
 it too.

 Test-plan:
 Write-intensive workload on a single mount point.
