Trond Myklebust d9156f9f36 NFS: Allow the nfs_pageio_descriptor to signal that a re-coalesce is needed
If an attempt to do pNFS fails, and we have to fall back to writing through
the MDS, then we may want to re-coalesce the requests that we already have
since the block size for the MDS read/writes may be different to that of
the DS read/writes.

Trond Myklebust 1751c3638f NFS: Cleanup of the nfs_pageio code in preparation for a pnfs bugfix
We need to ensure that the layouts are set up before we can decide to
coalesce requests. To do so, we want to further split up the struct
nfs_pageio_descriptor operations into an initialisation callback, a
coalescing test callback, and a 'do i/o' callback.

This patch cleans up the existing callback methods before adding the
'initialisation' callback.

Trond Myklebust 4d65c520fb NFS: Fix a hang in the writeback path
Now that the inode scalability patches have been merged, it is no longer
safe to call igrab() under the inode->i_lock.
Now that we no longer call nfs_clear_request() until the nfs_page is
being freed, we know that we are always holding a reference to the
nfs_open_context, which again holds a reference to the path, and so
the inode cannot be freed until the last nfs_page has been removed
from the radix tree and freed.

We can therefore skip the igrab()/iput() altogether.

Fred Isaman a861a1e1c3 NFSv4.1: add generic layer hooks for pnfs COMMIT
We create three major hooks for the pnfs code.

pnfs_mark_request_commit() is called during writeback_done from
nfs_mark_request_commit, which gives the driver an opportunity to
claim it wants control over commiting a particular req.

pnfs_choose_commit_list() is called from nfs_scan_list
to choose which list a given req should be added to, based on
where we intend to send it for COMMIT.  It is up to the driver
to have preallocated list headers for each destination it may need.

pnfs_commit_list() is how the driver actually takes control, it is
used instead of nfs_commit_list().

In order to pass information between the above functions, we create
a union in nfs_page to hold a lseg (which is possible because the req is
not on any list while in transition), and add some flags to indicate
if we need to use the pnfs code.

Trond Myklebust 2df485a774 nfs: remove extraneous and problematic calls to nfs_clear_request
When a nfs_page is freed, nfs_free_request is called which also calls
nfs_clear_request to clean out the lock and open contexts and free the
pagecache page.

However, a couple of places in the nfs code call nfs_clear_request
themselves. What happens here if the refcount on the request is still high?
We'll be releasing contexts and freeing pointers while the request is
possibly still in use.

Remove those bare calls to nfs_clear_context. That should only be done when
the request is being freed.

Note that when doing this, we need to watch out for tests of req->wb_page.
Previously, nfs_set_page_tag_locked() and nfs_clear_page_tag_locked()
would check the value of req->wb_page to figure out if the page is mapped
into the nfsi->nfs_page_tree. We now indicate the page is mapped using
the new bit PG_MAPPED in req->wb_flags .

Trond Myklebust e468bae97d NFS: Allow redirtying of a completed unstable write.
Currently, if an unstable write completes, we cannot redirty the page in
order to reflect a new change in the page data until after we've sent a
COMMIT request.

This patch allows a page rewrite to proceed without the unnecessary COMMIT
step, putting it immediately back onto the dirty page list, undoing the
VM unstable write accounting, and removing the NFS_PAGE_TAG_COMMIT tag from
the NFS radix tree.

Trond Myklebust 7fe7f8487a NFS: Avoid a deadlock situation on write
When processes are allowed to attempt to lock a non-contiguous range of nfs
write requests, it is possible for generic_writepages to 'wrap round' the
address space, and call writepage() on a request that is already locked by
the same process.

We avoid the deadlock by checking if the page index is contiguous with the
list of nfs write requests that is already held in our
nfs_pageio_descriptor prior to attempting to lock a new request.

Trond Myklebust c63c7b0513 NFS: Fix a race when doing NFS write coalescing
Currently we do write coalescing in a very inefficient manner: one pass in
generic_writepages() in order to lock the pages for writing, then one pass
in nfs_flush_mapping() and/or nfs_sync_mapping_wait() in order to gather
the locked pages for coalescing into RPC requests of size "wsize".

In fact, it turns out there is actually a deadlock possible here since we
only start I/O on the second pass. If the user signals the process while
we're in nfs_sync_mapping_wait(), for instance, then we may exit before
starting I/O on all the requests that have been queued up.

Trond Myklebust 5a6d41b32a NFS: Ensure PG_writeback is cleared when writeback fails
If the writebacks are cancelled via nfs_cancel_dirty_list, or due to the
memory allocation failing in nfs_flush_one/nfs_flush_multi, then we must
ensure that the PG_writeback flag is cleared.

Also ensure that we actually own the PG_writeback flag whenever we
schedule a new writeback by making nfs_set_page_writeback() return the
value of test_set_page_writeback().
The PG_writeback page flag ends up replacing the functionality of the
PG_FLUSHING nfs_page flag, so we rip that out too.
