nfs: don't sleep with inode lock in lock_and_join_requests

2014-08-22T22:04:43+00:00

This handles the 'nonblock=false' case in nfs_lock_and_join_requests.
If the group is already locked and blocking is allowed, drop the inode lock
and wait for the group lock to be cleared before trying it all again.
This should fix warnings found in peterz's tree (sched/wait branch), where
might_sleep() checks are added to wait.[ch].

nfs: fix error handling in lock_and_join_requests

2014-08-22T22:04:43+00:00

This fixes handling of errors from nfs_page_group_lock in
nfs_lock_and_join_requests.  It now releases the inode lock and the
reference to the head request.

nfs: change nfs_page_group_lock argument

2014-08-22T22:04:42+00:00

Flip the meaning of the second argument from 'wait' to 'nonblock' to
match related functions. Update all five calls to reflect this change.

pnfs: find swapped pages on pnfs commit lists too

2014-08-03T21:05:25+00:00

nfs_page_find_head_request_locked looks through the regular nfs commit lists
when the page is swapped out, but doesn't look through the pnfs commit lists.

I'm not sure if anyone has hit any issues caused by this.

Return errors from wait_on_bit_lock from nfs_page_group_lock.

Add a bool argument @wait to nfs_page_group_lock. If true, loop over
wait_on_bit_lock until it returns cleanly. If false, return the error
from wait_on_bit_lock.

sched: Remove proliferation of wait_on_bit() action functions

2014-07-16T13:10:39+00:00

The current "wait_on_bit" interface requires an 'action'
function to be provided which does the actual waiting.
There are over 20 such functions, many of them identical.
Most cases can be satisfied by one of just two functions, one
which uses io_schedule() and one which just uses schedule().

So:
 Rename wait_on_bit and        wait_on_bit_lock to
        wait_on_bit_action and wait_on_bit_lock_action
 to make it explicit that they need an action function.

 Introduce new wait_on_bit{,_lock} and wait_on_bit{,_lock}_io
 which are *not* given an action function but implicitly use
 a standard one.
 The decision to error-out if a signal is pending is now made
 based on the 'mode' argument rather than being encoded in the action
 function.

 All instances of the old wait_on_bit and wait_on_bit_lock which
 can use the new version have been changed accordingly and their
 action functions have been discarded.
 wait_on_bit{_lock} does not return any specific error code in the
 event of a signal so the caller must check for non-zero and
 interpolate their own error code as appropriate.

The wait_on_bit() call in __fscache_wait_on_invalidate() was
ambiguous as it specified TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE but used
fscache_wait_bit_interruptible as an action function.
David Howells confirms this should be uniformly
"uninterruptible"

The main remaining user of wait_on_bit{,_lock}_action is NFS
which needs to use a freezer-aware schedule() call.

A comment in fs/gfs2/glock.c notes that having multiple 'action'
functions is useful as they display differently in the 'wchan'
field of 'ps'. (and /proc/$PID/wchan).
As the new bit_wait{,_io} functions are tagged "__sched", they
will not show up at all, but something higher in the stack.  So
the distinction will still be visible, only with different
function names (gds2_glock_wait versus gfs2_glock_dq_wait in the
gfs2/glock.c case).

Since first version of this patch (against 3.15) two new action
functions appeared, on in NFS and one in CIFS.  CIFS also now
uses an action function that makes the same freezer aware
schedule call as NFS.
