      [PATCH] 2.5.25 Clean up RPC receive code [part 2] · 4b1191c8
      Trond Myklebust authored
        After getting rid of rpc_lock_task() from net/sunrpc/xprt.c (see the
      previous patch), we can now remove it from the generic RPC queue
      handling code.

      [PATCH] 2.5.25 Clean up RPC receive code · 1eedbd78
      Trond Myklebust authored
        Divorces task xid<->request slot mapping from the internals of the
      rpc_waitqueue xprt->pending. Instead xprt_lookup_rqst() is made to
      search a dedicated list (xprt->recv) on which the request slot is
      placed immediately after being allocated to a task. The new queue is
      protected using the spinlock xprt->sock_lock rather than the generic
      RPC task lock.
      
        Both udp_data_ready() and tcp_data_ready() (well tcp_read_request()
      actually) now need to protect against the request being removed from
      the xprt->recv list while they copy the RPC reply data from the skb.
      On the other hand, they no longer need to worry about the task
      disappearing from xprt->pending. This means that rpc_lock_task() hack
      can be replaced by the spinlock xprt->sock_lock.

      [PATCH] Fix NFS attribute caching bug · 45bde054
      Trond Myklebust authored
        Fixes an obvious bug in __nfs_refresh_inode(): after updating the
      attribute cache, if we discover that the data cache is invalid don't
      call nfs_zap_caches() as that will also reinvalidate the attribute
      cache.
        This bug plays havoc with the new lookup/revalidation code in 2.4.19
      since it forces a lot of unnecessary extra GETATTR RPC calls.

      [PATCH] sg driver against lk 2.5.25 · 4b11b184
      Douglas Gilbert authored
      This patch is against lk 2.5.25 . It
        - fixes copy_from/to_user() [William Stinson from dj tree]
        - disables kiobuf use, so it will compile without kiobufs
      
      The latter change is so Andrew Morton can remove kiobufs
      as suggested in his "direct-to-BIO for O_DIRECT" thread.
