bfd241600a [PATCH] knfsd: make rpc threads pools numa aware
Actually implement multiple pools.  On NUMA machines, allocate a svc_pool per
NUMA node; on SMP a svc_pool per CPU; otherwise a single global pool.  Enqueue
sockets on the svc_pool corresponding to the CPU on which the socket bh is run
(i.e.  the NIC interrupt CPU).  Threads have their cpu mask set to limit them
to the CPUs in the svc_pool that owns them.

This is the patch that allows an Altix to scale NFS traffic linearly
beyond 4 CPUs and 4 NICs.

Incorporates changes and feedback from Neil Brown, Trond Myklebust, and
Christoph Hellwig.

a74554429e [PATCH] knfsd: add svc_set_num_threads
Currently knfsd keeps its own list of all nfsd threads in nfssvc.c; add a new
way of managing the list of all threads in a svc_serv.  Add
svc_create_pooled() to allow creation of a svc_serv whose threads are managed
by the sunrpc code.  Add svc_set_num_threads() to manage the number of threads
in a service, either per-pool or globally across the service.

3262c816a3 [PATCH] knfsd: split svc_serv into pools
Split out the list of idle threads and pending sockets from svc_serv into a
new svc_pool structure, and allocate a fixed number (in this patch, 1) of
pools per svc_serv.  The new structure contains a lock which takes over
several of the duties of svc_serv->sv_lock, which is now relegated to
protecting only sv_tempsocks, sv_permsocks, and sv_tmpcnt in svc_serv.

The point is to move the hottest fields out of svc_serv and into svc_pool,
allowing a following patch to arrange for a svc_pool per NUMA node or per CPU.
 This is a major step towards making the NFS server NUMA-friendly.

36bdfc8bae [PATCH] knfsd: move tempsock aging to a timer
Following are 11 patches from Greg Banks which combine to make knfsd more
Numa-aware.  They reduce hitting on 'global' data structures, and create some
data-structures that can be node-local.

knfsd threads are bound to a particular node, and the thread to handle a new
request is chosen from the threads that are attach to the node that received
the interrupt.

The distribution of threads across nodes can be controlled by a new file in
the 'nfsd' filesystem, though the default approach of an even spread is
probably fine for most sites.

Some (old) numbers that show the efficacy of these patches: N == number of
NICs == number of CPUs == nmber of clients.  Number of NUMA nodes == N/2

N	Throughput, MiB/s	CPU usage, % (max=N*100)
	Before	After		Before	After
	---	------	----		-----	-----
	4	312	435		350	228
	6	500	656		501	418
	8	562	804		690	589

This patch:

Move the aging of RPC/TCP connection sockets from the main svc_recv() loop to
a timer which uses a mark-and-sweep algorithm every 6 minutes.  This reduces
the amount of work that needs to be done in the main RPC loop and the length
of time we need to hold the (effectively global) svc_serv->sv_lock.

b41b66d63c [PATCH] knfsd: allow sockets to be passed to nfsd via 'portlist'
Userspace should create and bind a socket (but not connectted) and write the
'fd' to portlist.  This will cause the nfs server to listen on that socket.

To close a socket, the name of the socket - as read from 'portlist' can be
written to 'portlist' with a preceding '-'.

'portlist' chosen rather than 'ports', to avoid unnecessary confusion with
non-mainline patches which created 'ports' with different semantics.

ff9aa5e56d SUNRPC: Eliminate xprt_create_proto and rpc_create_client
The two function call API for creating a new RPC client is now obsolete.
Remove it.

Also, remove an unnecessary check to see whether the caller is capable of
using privileged network services.  The kernel RPC client always uses a
privileged ephemeral port by default; callers are responsible for checking
the authority of users to make use of any RPC service, or for specifying
that a nonprivileged port is acceptable.

Test plan:
Repeated runs of Connectathon locking suite.  Check network trace to ensure
correctness of NLM requests and replies.

6f54e2d0d3 [PATCH] knfsd: svcrpc: WARN() instead of returning an error from svc_take_page
Every caller of svc_take_page ignores its return value and assumes it
succeeded.  So just WARN() instead of returning an ignored error.  This would
have saved some time debugging a recent nfsd4 problem.

If there are still failure cases here, then the result is probably that we
overwrite an earlier part of the reply while xdr-encoding.

While the corrupted reply is a nasty bug, it would be worse to panic here and
create the possibility of a remote DOS; hence WARN() instead of BUG().

99ac48f54a [PATCH] mark f_ops const in the inode
Mark the f_ops members of inodes as const, as well as fix the
ripple-through this causes by places that copy this f_ops and then "do
stuff" with it.

ebd0cb1af3 [PATCH] knfsd: Unexport cache_fresh and fix a small race
Cache_fresh is now only used in cache.c, so unexport it.

Part of cache_fresh (setting CACHE_VALID) should really be done under the
lock, while part (calling cache_revisit_request etc) must be done outside the
lock.  So we split it up appropriately.
