Trond Myklebust a3c3cac5d3 SUNRPC: Prevent an rpc_task wakeup race
The lockless RPC_IS_QUEUED() test in __rpc_execute means that we need to
be careful about ordering the calls to rpc_test_and_set_running(task) and
rpc_clear_queued(task). If we get the order wrong, then we may end up
testing the RPC_TASK_RUNNING flag after __rpc_execute() has looped
and changed the state of the rpc_task.

Trond Myklebust 1166fde6a9 SUNRPC: Add barriers to ensure read ordering in rpc_wake_up_task_queue_locked
We need to be careful when testing task->tk_waitqueue in
rpc_wake_up_task_queue_locked, because it can be changed while we
are holding the queue->lock.
By adding appropriate memory barriers, we can ensure that it is safe to
test task->tk_waitqueue for equality if the RPC_TASK_QUEUED bit is set.

Trond Myklebust edd2e36fe8 SUNRPC: When changing the queue priority, ensure that we change the owner
This fixes a livelock in the xprt->sending queue where we end up never
making progress on lower priority tasks because sleep_on_priority()
keeps adding new tasks with the same owner to the head of the queue,
and priority bumps mean that we keep resetting the queue->owner to
whatever task is at the head of the queue.

Regression introduced by commit c05eecf636
(SUNRPC: Don't allow low priority tasks to pre-empt higher priority ones).

Trond Myklebust 87ed50036b SUNRPC: Ensure we release the socket write lock if the rpc_task exits early
If the rpc_task exits while holding the socket write lock before it has
allocated an rpc slot, then the usual mechanism for releasing the write
lock in xprt_release() is defeated.

The problem occurs if the call to xprt_lock_write() initially fails, so
that the rpc_task is put on the xprt->sending wait queue. If the task
exits after being assigned the lock by __xprt_lock_write_func, but
before it has retried the call to xprt_lock_and_alloc_slot(), then
it calls xprt_release() while holding the write lock, but will
immediately exit due to the test for task->tk_rqstp != NULL.

This patch ensures that we free the rpc_task after the cleanup callbacks

Trond Myklebust c05eecf636 SUNRPC: Don't allow low priority tasks to pre-empt higher priority ones
Currently, the priority queues attempt to be 'fair' to lower priority
tasks by scheduling them after a certain number of higher priority tasks
have run. The problem is that both the transport send queue and
the NFSv4.1 session slot queue have strong ordering requirements.

This patch therefore removes the fairness code in favour of strong
ordering of task priorities.

Mel Gorman a564b8f039 nfs: enable swap on NFS
Implement the new swapfile a_ops for NFS and hook up ->direct_IO.  This
will set the NFS socket to SOCK_MEMALLOC and run socket reconnect under
PF_MEMALLOC as well as reset SOCK_MEMALLOC before engaging the protocol
->connect() method.

PF_MEMALLOC should allow the allocation of struct socket and related
objects and the early (re)setting of SOCK_MEMALLOC should allow us to
receive the packets required for the TCP connection buildup.

rpciod is trying to allocate memory for a new socket to talk to the
server. The VM ends up calling ->releasepage to get more memory, and it
tries to do a blocking commit. That commit can't succeed however without
a connected socket, so we deadlock.

Fix this by setting PF_FSTRANS on the workqueue task prior to doing the
socket allocation, and having nfs_release_page check for that flag when
deciding whether to do a commit call. Also, set PF_FSTRANS
unconditionally in rpc_async_schedule since that function can also do
allocations sometimes.

Trond Myklebust 540a0f7584 SUNRPC: We must not use list_for_each_entry_safe() in rpc_wake_up()
The problem is that for the case of priority queues, we
have to assume that __rpc_remove_wait_queue_priority will move new
elements from the tk_wait.links lists into the queue->tasks[] list.
We therefore cannot use list_for_each_entry_safe() on queue->tasks[],
since that will skip these new tasks that __rpc_remove_wait_queue_priority
is adding.

Without this fix, rpc_wake_up and rpc_wake_up_status will both fail
to wake up all functions on priority wait queues, which can result
in some nasty hangs.

Fred Isaman eabf5baaaa RPC: clarify rpc_run_task error handling
rpc_run_task can only fail if it is not passed in a preallocated task.
However, that is not at all clear with the current code.  So
remove several impossible to occur failure checks.

Trond Myklebust bf294b41ce SUNRPC: Close a race in __rpc_wait_for_completion_task()
Although they run as rpciod background tasks, under normal operation
(i.e. no SIGKILL), functions like nfs_sillyrename(), nfs4_proc_unlck()
and nfs4_do_close() want to be fully synchronous. This means that when we
exit, we want all references to the rpc_task to be gone, and we want
any dentry references etc. held by that task to be released.

For this reason these functions call __rpc_wait_for_completion_task(),
followed by rpc_put_task() in the expectation that the latter will be
releasing the last reference to the rpc_task, and thus ensuring that the
callback_ops->rpc_release() has been called synchronously.

This patch fixes a race which exists due to the fact that
rpciod calls rpc_complete_task() (in order to wake up the callers of
__rpc_wait_for_completion_task()) and then subsequently calls
rpc_put_task() without ensuring that these two steps are done atomically.

In order to avoid adding new spin locks, the patch uses the existing
waitqueue spin lock to order the rpc_task reference count releases between
the waiting process and rpciod.
The common case where nobody is waiting for completion is optimised for by
checking if the RPC_TASK_ASYNC flag is cleared and/or if the rpc_task
reference count is 1: in those cases we drop trying to grab the spin lock,
and immediately free up the rpc_task.

Those few processes that need to put the rpc_task from inside an
asynchronous context and that do not care about ordering are given a new
helper: rpc_put_task_async().

Chuck Lever ff8399709e SUNRPC: Replace jiffies-based metrics with ktime-based metrics
Currently RPC performance metrics that tabulate elapsed time use
jiffies time values.  This is problematic on systems that use slow
jiffies (for instance 100HZ systems built for paravirtualized
environments).  It is also a problem for computing precise latency
statistics for advanced network transports, such as InfiniBand,
that can have round-trip latencies significanly faster than a single
clock tick.

For the RPC client, adopt the high resolution time stamp mechanism
already used by the network layer and blktrace: ktime.

We use ktime format time stamps for all internal computations, and
convert to milliseconds for presentation.  As a result, we need only
addition operations in the performance critical paths; multiply/divide
is required only for presentation.

We could report RTT metrics in microseconds.  In fact the mountstats
format is versioned to accomodate exactly this kind of interface
improvement.

For now, however, we'll stay with millisecond precision for
presentation to maintain backwards compatibility with the handful of
currently deployed user space tools.  At a later point, we'll move to
an API such as BDI_STATS where a finer timestamp precision can be
reported.

Trond Myklebust eb9b55ab4d SUNRPC: Tighten up the task locking rules in __rpc_execute()
We should probably not be testing any flags after we've cleared the
RPC_TASK_RUNNING flag, since rpc_make_runnable() is then free to assign the
rpc_task to another workqueue, which may then destroy it.

We can fix any races with rpc_make_runnable() by ensuring that we only
clear the RPC_TASK_RUNNING flag while holding the rpc_wait_queue->lock that
the task is supposed to be sleeping on (and then checking whether or not
the task really is sleeping).
