Trond Myklebust 9c6376ebdd pNFS: Prevent the layout header refcount going to zero in pnfs_roc()
Ensure that we hold a reference to the layout header when processing
the pNFS return-on-close so that the refcount value does not inadvertently
go to zero.

Scott Mayhew ba4a76f703 nfs/pnfs: fix nfs_direct_req ref leak when i/o falls back to the mds
Currently when falling back to doing I/O through the MDS (via
pnfs_{read|write}_through_mds), the client frees the nfs_pgio_header
without releasing the reference taken on the dreq
via pnfs_generic_pg_{read|write}pages -> nfs_pgheader_init ->
nfs_direct_pgio_init.  It then takes another reference on the dreq via
nfs_generic_pg_pgios -> nfs_pgheader_init -> nfs_direct_pgio_init and
as a result the requester will become stuck in inode_dio_wait.  Once
that happens, other processes accessing the inode will become stuck as
well.

Ensure that pnfs_read_through_mds() and pnfs_write_through_mds() clean
up correctly by calling hdr->completion_ops->completion() instead of
calling hdr->release() directly.

This can be reproduced (sometimes) by performing "storage failover
takeover" commands on NetApp filer while doing direct I/O from a client.

This can also be reproduced using SystemTap to simulate a failure while
doing direct I/O from a client (from Dave Wysochanski
<dwysocha@redhat.com>):

stap -v -g -e 'probe module("nfs_layout_nfsv41_files").function("nfs4_fl_prepare_ds").return { $return=NULL; exit(); }'

Benjamin Coddington b3dce6a2f0 pnfs/blocklayout: handle transient devices
PNFS block/SCSI layouts should gracefully handle cases where block devices
are not available when a layout is retrieved, or the block devices are
removed while the client holds a layout.

While setting up a layout segment, keep a record of an unavailable or
un-parsable block device in cache with a flag so that subsequent layouts do
not spam the server with GETDEVINFO.  We can reuse the current
NFS_DEVICEID_UNAVAILABLE handling with one variation: instead of reusing
the device, we will discard it and send a fresh GETDEVINFO after the
timeout, since the lookup and validation of the device occurs within the
GETDEVINFO response handling.

A lookup of a layout segment that references an unavailable device will
return a segment with the NFS_LSEG_UNAVAILABLE flag set.  This will allow
the pgio layer to mark the layout with the appropriate fail bit, which
forces subsequent IO to the MDS, and prevents spamming the server with
LAYOUTGET, LAYOUTRETURN.

Finally, when IO to a block device fails, look up the block device(s)
referenced by the pgio header, and mark them as unavailable.

Elena Reshetova 2b28a7bee4 fs, nfs: convert pnfs_layout_hdr.plh_refcount from atomic_t to refcount_t
atomic_t variables are currently used to implement reference
counters with the following properties:
 - counter is initialized to 1 using atomic_set()
 - a resource is freed upon counter reaching zero
 - once counter reaches zero, its further
   increments aren't allowed
 - counter schema uses basic atomic operations
   (set, inc, inc_not_zero, dec_and_test, etc.)

Such atomic variables should be converted to a newly provided
refcount_t type and API that prevents accidental counter overflows
and underflows. This is important since overflows and underflows
can lead to use-after-free situation and be exploitable.

The variable pnfs_layout_hdr.plh_refcount is used as pure reference counter.
Convert it to refcount_t and fix up the operations.

Benjamin Coddington 08cb5b0f05 pnfs: Fix the check for requests in range of layout segment
It's possible and acceptable for NFS to attempt to add requests beyond the
range of the current pgio->pg_lseg, a case which should be caught and
limited by the pg_test operation.  However, the current handling of this
case replaces pgio->pg_lseg with a new layout segment (after a WARN) within
that pg_test operation.  That will cause all the previously added requests
to be submitted with this new layout segment, which may not be valid for
those requests.

Fix this problem by only returning zero for the number of bytes to coalesce
from pg_test for this case which allows any previously added requests to
complete on the current layout segment.  The check for requests starting
out of range of the layout segment moves to pg_init, so that the
replacement of pgio->pg_lseg will be done when the next request is added.

Trond Myklebust 61f454e30c pNFS: Fix a deadlock when coalescing writes and returning the layout
Consider the following deadlock:

Process P1	Process P2		Process P3
==========	==========		==========
					lock_page(page)

		lseg = pnfs_update_layout(inode)

lo = NFS_I(inode)->layout
pnfs_error_mark_layout_for_return(lo)

		lock_page(page)

					lseg = pnfs_update_layout(inode)

In this scenario,
- P1 has declared the layout to be in error, but P2 holds a reference to
  a layout segment on that inode, so the layoutreturn is deferred.
- P2 is waiting for a page lock held by P3.
- P3 is asking for a new layout segment, but is blocked waiting
  for the layoutreturn.

The fix is to ensure that pnfs_error_mark_layout_for_return() does
not set the NFS_LAYOUT_RETURN flag, which blocks P3. Instead, we allow
the latter to call LAYOUTGET so that it can make progress and unblock
P2.

Jeff Layton ca440c383a pnfs: add a new mechanism to select a layout driver according to an ordered list
Currently, the layout driver selection code always chooses the first one
from the list. That's not really ideal however, as the server can send

This patch adds an ordered list of preferred driver types and has the
selection code sort the list of available layout drivers according to it.
Any unrecognized layout type is sorted to the end of the list.

For now, the order of preference is hardcoded, but it should be possible

Trond Myklebust 334a8f3711 pNFS: Don't forget the layout stateid if there are outstanding LAYOUTGETs
If there are outstanding LAYOUTGET rpc calls, then we want to ensure that
we keep the layout stateid around so we that don't inadvertently pick up
an old/misordered sequence id.
The race is as follows:

Client				Server
======				======
LAYOUTGET(seqid)
LAYOUTGET(seqid)
				return LAYOUTGET(seqid+1)
				return LAYOUTGET(seqid+2)
process LAYOUTGET(seqid+2)
	forget layout
process LAYOUTGET(seqid+1)

If it forgets the layout stateid before processing seqid+1, then
the client will not check the layout->plh_barrier, and so will set
the stateid with seqid+1.

If the layout was marked as invalid, we want to ensure to initialise
the layout header fields correctly.
