J. Bruce Fields 24b2605bec RPCSEC_GSS: cleanup au_rslack calculation
Various xdr encode routines use au_rslack to guess where the reply argument
 will end up, so we can set up the xdr_buf to recieve data into the right place
 for zero copy.

 Currently we calculate the au_rslack estimate when we check the verifier.
 Normally this only depends on the verifier size.  In the integrity case we add
 a few bytes to allow for a length and sequence number.

 It's a bit simpler to calculate only the verifier size when we check the
 verifier, and delay the full calculation till we unwrap.

Christoph Hellwig 278c995c8a [PATCH] RPC,NFS: new rpc_pipefs patch
Currently rpc_mkdir/rpc_rmdir and rpc_mkpipe/mk_unlink have an API that's
 a little unfortunate.  They take a path relative to the rpc_pipefs root and
 thus need to perform a full lookup.  If you look at debugfs or usbfs they
 always store the dentry for directories they created and thus can pass in
 a dentry + single pathname component pair into their equivalents of the
 above functions.

 And in fact rpc_pipefs actually stores a dentry for all but one component so
 this change not only simplifies the core rpc_pipe code but also the callers.

 Unfortuntately this code path is only used by the NFS4 idmapper and
 AUTH_GSSAPI for which I don't have a test enviroment.  Could someone give
 it a spin?  It's the last bit needed before we can rework the
 lookup_hash API

Implement a best practice: if the remote end drops our connection, try to
 reconnect using the same port number.  This is important because the NFS
 server's Duplicate Reply Cache often hashes on the source port number.
 If the client reuses the port number when it reconnects, the server's DRC
 will be more effective.

Chuck Lever 12a804698b [PATCH] RPC: expose API for serializing access to RPC transports
The next several patches introduce an API that allows transports to
 choose whether the RPC client provides congestion control or whether
 the transport itself provides it.

 The first method we abstract is the one that serializes access to the
 RPC transport to prevent the bytes from different requests from mingling
 together.  This method provides proper request serialization and the
 opportunity to prevent new requests from being started because the
 transport is congested.

 The normal situation is for the transport to handle congestion control
 itself.  Although NFS over UDP was first, it has been recognized after
 years of experience that having the transport provide congestion control
 is much better than doing it in the RPC client.  Thus TCP, and probably
 every future transport implementation, will use the default method,
 xprt_lock_write, provided in xprt.c, which does not provide any kind
 of congestion control.  UDP can continue using the xprt.c-provided
 Van Jacobson congestion avoidance implementation.

 Test-plan:
 Use WAN simulation to cause sporadic bursty packet loss.  Look for significant
 regression in performance or client stability.

Introduce block header comments and a function naming convention to the

 that is separate from RPCDBG_XPRT.  Eliminate xprt_default_timeout().

 Provide block comments for exposed interfaces in xprt.c, and eliminate
 the useless obvious comments.

 Convert printk's to dprintk's.

Chuck Lever da35187801 [PATCH] RPC: proper soft timeout behavior for rpcbind
Implement a best practice:  for soft mounts, an rpcbind timeout should
 cause an RPC request to fail.

 This also provides an FSM hook for retrying an rpcbind with a different
 rpcbind protocol version.  We'll use this later to try multiple rpcbind
 protocol versions when binding.  To enable this, expose the RPC error
 code returned during a portmap request to the FSM so it can make some
 decision about how to report, retry, or fail the request.

 Test-plan:
 Hundreds of passes with connectathon NFSv3 locking suite, on the client
 and server.

Bruce Allan f35279d3f7 [PATCH] sunrpc: cache_register can use wrong module reference
When registering an RPC cache, cache_register() always sets the owner as the
sunrpc module.  However, there are RPC caches owned by other modules.  With
the incorrect owner setting, the real owning module can be removed potentially
with an open reference to the cache from userspace.

For example, if one were to stop the nfs server and unmount the nfsd
filesystem, the nfsd module could be removed eventhough rpc.idmapd had
references to the idtoname and nametoid caches (i.e.
/proc/net/rpc/nfs4.<cachename>/channel is still open).  This resulted in a
system panic on one of our machines when attempting to restart the nfs
services after reloading the nfsd module.

The following patch adds a 'struct module *owner' field in struct
cache_detail.  The owner is further assigned to the struct proc_dir_entry
in cache_register() so that the module cannot be unloaded while user-space
daemons have an open reference on the associated file under /proc.

there's no longer any need for callers of that function to check for NULL.

Christoph Lameter 3e1d1d28d9 [PATCH] Cleanup patch for process freezing
1. Establish a simple API for process freezing defined in linux/include/sched.h:

   frozen(process)		Check for frozen process
   freezing(process)		Check if a process is being frozen
   freeze(process)		Tell a process to freeze (go to refrigerator)
   thaw_process(process)	Restart process
   frozen_process(process)	Process is frozen now

2. Remove all references to PF_FREEZE and PF_FROZEN from all
   kernel sources except sched.h

3. Fix numerous locations where try_to_freeze is manually done by a driver

4. Remove the argument that is no longer necessary from two function calls.

5. Some whitespace cleanup

6. Clear potential race in refrigerator (provides an open window of PF_FREEZE
   cleared before setting PF_FROZEN, recalc_sigpending does not check
   PF_FROZEN).

This patch does not address the problem of freeze_processes() violating the rule
that a task may only modify its own flags by setting PF_FREEZE. This is not clean
in an SMP environment. freeze(process) is therefore not SMP safe!

Pavel Pisa 4dc3b16ba1 [PATCH] DocBook: changes and extensions to the kernel documentation
I have recompiled Linux kernel 2.6.11.5 documentation for me and our
university students again.  The documentation could be extended for more
sources which are equipped by structured comments for recent 2.6 kernels.  I
have tried to proceed with that task.  I have done that more times from 2.6.0
time and it gets boring to do same changes again and again.  Linux kernel
compiles after changes for i386 and ARM targets.  I have added references to
some more files into kernel-api book, I have added some section names as well.
 So please, check that changes do not break something and that categories are
not too much skewed.

I have changed kernel-doc to accept "fastcall" and "asmlinkage" words reserved
by kernel convention.  Most of the other changes are modifications in the
comments to make kernel-doc happy, accept some parameters description and do
not bail out on errors.  Changed <pid> to @pid in the description, moved some
#ifdef before comments to correct function to comments bindings, etc.

You can see result of the modified documentation build at
  http://cmp.felk.cvut.cz/~pisa/linux/lkdb-2.6.11.tar.gz

Some more sources are ready to be included into kernel-doc generated
documentation.  Sources has been added into kernel-api for now.  Some more
section names added and probably some more chaos introduced as result of quick
cleanup work.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
