Since the patch "NFS: Allow multiple commit requests in flight per file" we can run multiple simultaneous commits on the same inode. This introduced a race over collecting pages to commit that made it possible to call nfs_init_commit() with an empty list - which causes crashes like the one below. The fix is to catch this race and avoid calling nfs_init_commit and initiate_commit when there is no work to do. Here is the crash: [600522.076832] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000040 [600522.078475] IP: [<ffffffffa0479e72>] nfs_init_commit+0x22/0x130 [nfs] [600522.078745] PGD 4272b1067 PUD 4272cb067 PMD 0 [600522.078972] Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP [600522.079204] Modules linked in: nfsv3 nfs_layout_flexfiles rpcsec_gss_krb5 nfsv4 dns_resolver nfs fscache dcdbas ip6t_rpfilter ip6t_REJECT nf_reject_ipv6 xt_conntrack ebtable_nat ebtable_broute bridge stp llc ebtable_filter ebtables ip6table_nat nf_conntrack_ipv6 nf_defrag_ipv6 nf_nat_ipv6 ip6table_mangle ip6table_security ip6table_raw ip6table_filter ip6_tables iptable_nat nf_conntrack_ipv4 nf_defrag_ipv4 nf_nat_ipv4 nf_nat nf_conntrack iptable_mangle iptable_security iptable_raw vmw_vsock_vmci_transport vsock bonding ipmi_devintf ipmi_msghandler coretemp crct10dif_pclmul crc32_pclmul ghash_clmulni_intel ppdev vmw_balloon parport_pc parport acpi_cpufreq vmw_vmci i2c_piix4 shpchp nfsd auth_rpcgss nfs_acl lockd grace sunrpc xfs libcrc32c vmwgfx drm_kms_helper ttm drm crc32c_intel serio_raw vmxnet3 [600522.081380] vmw_pvscsi ata_generic pata_acpi [600522.081809] CPU: 3 PID: 15667 Comm: /usr/bin/python Not tainted 4.1.9-100.pd.88.el7.x86_64 #1 [600522.082281] Hardware name: VMware, Inc.

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.

If we get back something like NFS4ERR_OLD_STATEID, that will be translated into -EAGAIN, and the do/while loop in send_layoutget will drive the call again. This is not quite what we want, I think. An error like that is a sign that something has changed. That something could have been a concurrent LAYOUTGET that would give us a usable lseg. Lift the retry logic into pnfs_update_layout instead. That allows us to redo the layout search, and may spare us from having to issue an RPC.

When we want to selectively do a LAYOUTRETURN, we need to specify a stateid that represents most recent layout acquisition that is to be returned. When we mark a layout stateid to be returned, we update the return sequence number in the layout header with that value, if it's newer than the existing one. Then, when we go to do a LAYOUTRETURN on layout header put, we overwrite the seqid in the stateid with the saved one, and then zero it out.

In a cluster failover scenario, it is desirable for the client to attempt to reconnect quickly, as an alternate NFS server is already waiting to take over for the down server. The client can't see that a server IP address has moved to a new server until the existing connection is gone. For fabrics and devices where it is meaningful, set a definite upper bound on the amount of time before it is determined that a connection is no longer valid. This allows the RPC client to detect connection loss in a timely matter, then perform a fresh resolution of the server GUID in case it has changed (cluster failover).

There needs to be a safe method of releasing registered memory resources when an RPC terminates. Safe can mean a number of things: + Doesn't have to sleep + Doesn't rely on having a QP in RTS ro_unmap_safe will be that safe method. It can be used in cases where synchronous memory invalidation can deadlock, or needs to have an active QP. The important case is fencing an RPC's memory regions after it is signaled (^C) and before it exits. If this is not done, there is a window where the server can write an RPC reply into memory that the client has released and re-used for some other purpose. Note that this is a full solution for FRWR, but FMR and physical still have some gaps where a particularly bad server can wreak some havoc on the client. These gaps are not made worse by this patch and are expected to be exceptionally rare and timing-based. They are noted in documenting comments.

rpcrdma_marshal_req() makes a simplifying assumption: that NFS operations with large Call messages have small Reply messages, and vice versa. Therefore with RPC-over-RDMA, only one chunk type is ever needed for each Call/Reply pair, because one direction needs chunks, the other direction will always fit inline. In fact, this assumption is asserted in the code: if (rtype != rpcrdma_noch && wtype != rpcrdma_noch) { dprintk("RPC: %s: cannot marshal multiple chunk lists\n", __func__); return -EIO; } But RPCGSS_SEC breaks this assumption. Because krb5i and krb5p perform data transformation on RPC messages before they are transmitted, direct data placement techniques cannot be used, thus RPC messages must be sent via a Long call in both directions. All such calls are sent with a Position Zero Read chunk, and all such replies are handled with a Reply chunk. Thus the client must provide every Call/Reply pair with both a Read list and a Reply chunk. Without any special security in effect, NFSv4 WRITEs may now also use the Read list and provide a Reply chunk. The marshal_req logic was preventing that, meaning an NFSv4 WRITE with a large payload that included a GETATTR result larger than the inline threshold would fail. The code that encodes each chunk list is now completely contained in its own function. There is some code duplication, but the trade-off is that the overall logic should be more clear. Note that all three chunk lists now share the rl_segments array. Some additional per-req accounting is necessary to track this usage. For the same reasons that the above simplifying assumption has held true for so long, I don't expect more array elements are needed at this time.

Avoid the latency and interrupt overhead of registering a Write chunk when handling NFS READ requests of a few hundred bytes or less. This change does not interoperate with Linux NFS/RDMA servers that do not have commit 9d11b51c ('svcrdma: Fix send_reply() scatter/gather set-up'). Commit 9d11b51c was introduced in v4.3, and is included in 4.2.y, 4.1.y, and 3.18.y. Oracle bug 22925946 has been filed to request that the above fix be included in the Oracle Linux UEK4 NFS/RDMA server. Red Hat bugzillas 1327280 and 1327554 have been filed to request that RHEL NFS/RDMA server backports include the above fix. Workaround: Replace the "proto=rdma,port=20049" mount options with "proto=tcp" until commit 9d11b51c is applied to your NFS server.

When deciding whether to send a Call inline, rpcrdma_marshal_req doesn't take into account header bytes consumed by chunk lists. This results in Call messages on the wire that are sometimes larger than the inline threshold. Likewise, when a Write list or Reply chunk is in play, the server's reply has to emit an RDMA Send that includes a larger-than-minimal RPC-over-RDMA header. The actual size of a Call message cannot be estimated until after the chunk lists have been registered. Thus the size of each RPC-over-RDMA header can be estimated only after chunks are registered; but the decision to register chunks is based on the size of that header. Chicken, meet egg. The best a client can do is estimate header size based on the largest header that might occur, and then ensure that inline content is always smaller than that.

Send buffer space is shared between the RPC-over-RDMA header and an RPC message. A large RPC-over-RDMA header means less space is available for the associated RPC message, which then has to be moved via an RDMA Read or Write. As more segments are added to the chunk lists, the header increases in size. Typical modern hardware needs only a few segments to convey the maximum payload size, but some devices and registration modes may need a lot of segments to convey data payload. Sometimes so many are needed that the remaining space in the Send buffer is not enough for the RPC message. Sending such a message usually fails. To ensure a transport can always make forward progress, cap the number of RDMA segments that are allowed in chunk lists. This prevents less-capable devices and memory registrations from consuming a large portion of the Send buffer by reducing the maximum data payload that can be conveyed with such devices. For now I choose an arbitrary maximum of 8 RDMA segments. This allows a maximum size RPC-over-RDMA header to fit nicely in the current 1024 byte inline threshold with over 700 bytes remaining for an inline RPC message. The current maximum data payload of NFS READ or WRITE requests is one megabyte. To convey that payload on a client with 4KB pages, each chunk segment would need to handle 32 or more data pages. This is well within the capabilities of FMR. For physical registration, the maximum payload size on platforms with 4KB pages is reduced to 32KB. For FRWR, a device's maximum page list depth would need to be at least 34 to support the maximum 1MB payload. A device with a smaller maximum page list depth means the maximum data payload is reduced when using that device.

Currently the sysctls that allow setting the inline threshold allow any value to be set. Small values only make the transport run slower. The default 1KB setting is as low as is reasonable. And the logic that decides how to divide a Send buffer between RPC-over-RDMA header and RPC message assumes (but does not check) that the lower bound is not crazy (say, 57 bytes). Send and receive buffers share a page with some control information. Values larger than about 3KB can't be supported, currently.
