If a data server is unavailable, go through MDS.
Mark the deviceid containing the data server as a negative cache entry.
Do not try to connect to any data server on a deviceid marked as a negative
cache entry. Mark any layout that tries to use the marked deviceid as failed.
Inodes with a layout marked as fails will not use the layout for I/O, and will
not perform any more layoutgets.
Inodes without a layout will still do layoutget, but the layout will get
marked immediately.

The pnfs code was using throughout the lock order i_lock, cl_lock.
This conflicts with the nfs delegation code. Rework the pnfs code
to avoid taking both locks simultaneously.
Currently the code takes the double lock to add/remove the layout to a
nfs_client list, while atomically checking that the list of lsegs is
empty. To avoid this, we rely on existing serializations. When a
layout is initialized with lseg count equal zero, LAYOUTGET's
openstateid serialization is in effect, making it safe to assume it
stays zero unless we change it. And once a layout's lseg count drops
to zero, it is set as DESTROYED and so will stay at zero.

The code could violate the following from RFC5661, section 12.5.3:
"Once a client has no more layouts on a file, the layout stateid is no
longer valid and MUST NOT be used."
This can occur when a layout already has a lseg, starts another
non-everlapping LAYOUTGET, and a CB_LAYOUTRECALL for the existing lseg
is processed before we hit pnfs_layout_process().
Solve by setting, each time the client has no more lsegs for a file, a
flag which blocks further use of the layout and triggers its removal.
This also fixes a second bug which occurs in the same instance as
above. If we actually use pnfs_layout_process, we add the new lseg to
the layout, but the layout has been removed from the nfs_client list
by the intervening CB_LAYOUTRECALL and will not be added back. Thus
the newly acquired lseg will not be properly returned in the event of
a subsequent CB_LAYOUTRECALL.

There have been a number of recent reports that NFSROOT is no longer
working with default mount options, but fails only with certain NICs.
Brian Downing <bdowning@lavos.net> bisected to commit 56463e50 "NFS:
Use super.c for NFSROOT mount option parsing". Among other things,
this commit changes the default mount options for NFSROOT to use TCP
instead of UDP as the underlying transport.
TCP seems less able to deal with NICs that are slow to initialize.
The system logs that have accompanied reports of problems all show
that NFSROOT attempts to establish a TCP connection before the NIC is
fully initialized, and thus the TCP connection attempt fails.
When a TCP connection attempt fails during a mount operation, the
NFS stack needs to fail the operation. Usually user space knows how
and when to retry it. The network layer does not report a distinct
error code for this particular failure mode. Thus, there isn't a
clean way for the RPC client to see that it needs to retry in this
case, but not in others.
Because NFSROOT is used in some environments where it is not possible
to update the kernel command line to specify "udp", the proper thing
to do is change NFSROOT to use UDP by default, as it did before commit
56463e50.
To make it easier to see how to change default mount options for
NFSROOT and to distinguish default settings from mandatory settings,
I've adjusted a couple of areas to document the specifics.
root_nfs_cat() is also modified to deal with commas properly when
concatenating strings containing mount option lists. This keeps
root_nfs_cat() call sites simpler, now that we may be concatenating
multiple mount option strings.

nfs4_schedule_state_recovery() should only be used when we need to force
the state manager to check the lease. If we just want to start the
state manager in order to handle a state recovery situation, we should be
using nfs4_schedule_state_manager().
This patch fixes the abuses of nfs4_schedule_state_recovery() by replacing
its use with a set of helper functions that do the right thing.

The log lock is currently used to protect the AIL lists and
the movements of buffers into and out of them. The lists
are self contained and no log specific items outside the
lists are accessed when starting or emptying the AIL lists.
Hence the operation of the AIL does not require the protection
of the log lock so split them out into a new AIL specific lock
to reduce the amount of traffic on the log lock. This will
also reduce the amount of serialisation that occurs when
the gfs2_logd pushes on the AIL to move it forward.
This reduces the impact of log pushing on sequential write
throughput.

In write_empty_blocks(), if a page didn't have buffer_heads attached, GFS2

Change the default UBIFS behavior WRT data CRC checking. Currently,
UBIFS checks data CRC when reading, which slows it down quite a bit,
and this is the default option. However, it looks like in average
user does not need this feature and would prefer faster read speed
over extra reliability. And this seems to be de-facto standard that
file-systems do not check data CRC every time they read from the
media.
Thus, make UBIFS default behavior so that it does not check data
CRC. This corresponds to the no_chk_data_crc mount option. Those users
who need extra protection can always enable it using the chk_data_crc
option.
Please, read more information about this feature here:

I've been adding in more artificial delays in the NFSv4 commit and close
codepaths to uncover races. The kernel I'm testing has the patch to
close the race in __rpc_wait_for_completion_task that's in Trond's
cthon2011 branch. The reproducer I've been using does this in a loop:
mkdir("DIR");
fd = open("DIR/FILE", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_EXCL, 0644);
write(fd, "abcdefg", 7);
close(fd);
unlink("DIR/FILE");
rmdir("DIR");
The above reproducer shouldn't result in any silly-renaming. However,
when I add a "msleep(100)" just after the nfs_commit_clear_lock call in
nfs_commit_release, I can almost always force one to occur. If I can
force it to occur with that, then it can happen without that delay
given the right timing.
nfs_commit_inode waits for the NFS_INO_COMMIT bit to clear when called
with FLUSH_SYNC set. nfs_commit_rpcsetup on the other hand does not wait
for the task to complete before putting its reference to it, so the last
reference get put in rpc_release task and gets queued to a workqueue.
In this situation, the last open context reference may be put by the
COMMIT release instead of the close() syscall. The close() syscall
returns too quickly and the unlink runs while the d_count is still
high since the COMMIT release hasn't put its dentry reference yet.
Fix this by having rpc_commit_rpcsetup wait for the RPC call to complete
before putting the task reference when FLUSH_SYNC is set. With this, the
last reference is put by the process that's initiating the FLUSH_SYNC
commit and the race is closed.

Although they run as rpciod background tasks, under normal operation
(i.e. no SIGKILL), functions like nfs_sillyrename(), nfs4_proc_unlck()
and nfs4_do_close() want to be fully synchronous. This means that when we
exit, we want all references to the rpc_task to be gone, and we want
any dentry references etc. held by that task to be released.
For this reason these functions call __rpc_wait_for_completion_task(),
followed by rpc_put_task() in the expectation that the latter will be
releasing the last reference to the rpc_task, and thus ensuring that the
callback_ops->rpc_release() has been called synchronously.
This patch fixes a race which exists due to the fact that
rpciod calls rpc_complete_task() (in order to wake up the callers of
__rpc_wait_for_completion_task()) and then subsequently calls
rpc_put_task() without ensuring that these two steps are done atomically.
In order to avoid adding new spin locks, the patch uses the existing
waitqueue spin lock to order the rpc_task reference count releases between
the waiting process and rpciod.
The common case where nobody is waiting for completion is optimised for by
checking if the RPC_TASK_ASYNC flag is cleared and/or if the rpc_task
reference count is 1: in those cases we drop trying to grab the spin lock,
and immediately free up the rpc_task.
Those few processes that need to put the rpc_task from inside an
asynchronous context and that do not care about ordering are given a new
helper: rpc_put_task_async().

Change how callbacks are recorded for locks. Previously, information
about multiple callbacks was combined into a couple of variables that
indicated what the end result should be. In some situations, we
could not tell from this combined state what the exact sequence of
callbacks were, and would end up either delivering the callbacks in
the wrong order, or suppress redundant callbacks incorrectly. This
new approach records all the data for each callback, leaving no
uncertainty about what needs to be delivered.

Without this patch, inodes are not promptly freed on last close of an
unlinked file by an nfs client:
client$ mount -tnfs4 server:/export/ /mnt/
client$ tail -f /mnt/FOO
...
server$ df -i /export
server$ rm /export/FOO
(^C the tail -f)
server$ df -i /export
server$ echo 2 >/proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
server$ df -i /export
the df's will show that the inode is not freed on the filesystem until
the last step, when it could have been freed after killing the client's
tail -f. On-disk data won't be deallocated either, leading to possible
spurious ENOSPC.
This occurs because when the client does the close, it arrives in a
compound with a putfh and a close, processed like:
- putfh: look up the filehandle. The only alias found for the
inode will be DCACHE_UNHASHED alias referenced by the filp
this, so it creates a new DCACHE_DISCONECTED dentry and
returns that instead.
- close: closes the existing filp, which is destroyed
immediately by dput() since it's DCACHE_UNHASHED.
- end of the compound: release the reference
to the current filehandle, and dput() the new
DCACHE_DISCONECTED dentry, which gets put on the
unused list instead of being destroyed immediately.
Nick Piggin suggested fixing this by allowing d_obtain_alias to return
the unhashed dentry that is referenced by the filp, instead of making it
create a new dentry.
Leave __d_find_alias() alone to avoid changing behavior of other
callers.
Also nfsd doesn't need all the checks of __d_find_alias(); any dentry,
hashed or unhashed, disconnected or not, should work.
