Impact: fix circular locking
Steven reports a circular locking from alloc_cpumask_var doing
a wakeup. We get rid of this using the tried-and-true technique
of using a per-cpu cpumask_var_t rather than doing an alloc
every time.
Simpler and more robust than a rare, implicit allocation within
an atomic codepath.

When you compile kernel on Sparc64 with heap memory checking and type
"cat /proc/iomem", you get a crash, because pointers in struct
resource are uninitialized.
Most code fills struct resource with zeros, so I assume that it is
responsibility of the caller of request_resource to initialized it,
not the responsibility of request_resource functuion.
After 2.6.29 is out, there could be a check for uninitialized fields
added to request_resource to avoid crashes like this.

smsc911x_phy_adjust_link is called periodically by the phy layer (as
it's run in polling mode), and it only updates the hardware when it sees
a change in duplex or carrier. This patch clears the last known values
every time the interface is brought up, instead of only when the module
is loaded.
Without this patch the adjust_link function never updates the hardware
after an ifconfig down; ifconfig up. On a full duplex link this causes
the tx error counter to increment, even though packets are correctly
transmitted, as the default MAC_CR register setting is for half duplex.
The tx errors are "no carrier" errors, which should be ignored in
full-duplex mode. When MAC_CR is set to "full duplex" mode they are
correctly ignored by the hardware.
Note that even with this patch the tx error counter can increment if
packets are transmitted between "ifconfig up" and the first phy poll
interval. An improved solution would use the phy interrupt with phylib,
but I haven't managed to make this work 100% robustly yet.

There is an inconsistency seen in the behaviour of nfs compared to other local
filesystems on linux when changing owner or group of a directory. If the
directory has SUID/SGID flags set, on changing owner or group on the directory,
the flags are stripped off on nfs. These flags are maintained on other
filesystems such as ext3.
To reproduce on a nfs share or local filesystem, run the following commands
mkdir test; chmod +s+g test; chown user1 test; ls -ld test
On the nfs share, the flags are stripped and the output seen is
drwxr-xr-x 2 user1 root 4096 Feb 23 2009 test
On other local filesystems(ex: ext3), the flags are not stripped and the output
seen is
drwsr-sr-x 2 user1 root 4096 Feb 23 13:57 test
chown_common() called from sys_chown() will only strip the flags if the inode is
not a directory.
static int chown_common(struct dentry * dentry, uid_t user, gid_t group)
{
..
if (!S_ISDIR(inode->i_mode))
newattrs.ia_valid |=
ATTR_KILL_SUID | ATTR_KILL_SGID | ATTR_KILL_PRIV;
..
}
See: http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/7990989775/xsh/chown.html
"If the path argument refers to a regular file, the set-user-ID (S_ISUID) and
set-group-ID (S_ISGID) bits of the file mode are cleared upon successful return
from chown(), unless the call is made by a process with appropriate privileges,
in which case it is implementation-dependent whether these bits are altered. If
chown() is successfully invoked on a file that is not a regular file, these
bits may be cleared. These bits are defined in <sys/stat.h>."
The behaviour as it stands does not appear to violate POSIX. However the
actions performed are inconsistent when comparing ext3 and nfs.

Allow the NFSv4 server to make use of TCP autotuning behaviour, which
was previously disabled by setting the sk_userlocks variable.
Set the receive buffers to be big enough to receive the whole RPC
request, and set this for the listening socket, not the accept socket.
Remove the code that readjusts the receive/send buffer sizes for the
accepted socket. Previously this code was used to influence the TCP
window management behaviour, which is no longer needed when autotuning
is enabled.
This can improve IO bandwidth on networks with high bandwidth-delay
products, where a large tcp window is required. It also simplifies
performance tuning, since getting adequate tcp buffers previously
required increasing the number of nfsd threads.

Avoid overloading the CPU scheduler with enormous load averages
when handling high call-rate NFS loads. When the knfsd bottom half
is made aware of an incoming call by the socket layer, it tries to
choose an nfsd thread and wake it up. As long as there are idle
threads, one will be woken up.
If there are lot of nfsd threads (a sensible configuration when
the server is disk-bound or is running an HSM), there will be many
more nfsd threads than CPUs to run them. Under a high call-rate
low service-time workload, the result is that almost every nfsd is
runnable, but only a handful are actually able to run. This situation
causes two significant problems:
1. The CPU scheduler takes over 10% of each CPU, which is robbing
the nfsd threads of valuable CPU time.
2. At a high enough load, the nfsd threads starve userspace threads
of CPU time, to the point where daemons like portmap and rpc.mountd
do not schedule for tens of seconds at a time. Clients attempting
to mount an NFS filesystem timeout at the very first step (opening
a TCP connection to portmap) because portmap cannot wake up from
select() and call accept() in time.
Disclaimer: these effects were observed on a SLES9 kernel, modern
kernels' schedulers may behave more gracefully.
The solution is simple: keep in each svc_pool a counter of the number
of threads which have been woken but have not yet run, and do not wake
any more if that count reaches an arbitrary small threshold.
Testing was on a 4 CPU 4 NIC Altix using 4 IRIX clients, each with 16
synthetic client threads simulating an rsync (i.e. recursive directory
listing) workload reading from an i386 RH9 install image (161480
regular files in 10841 directories) on the server. That tree is small
enough to fill in the server's RAM so no disk traffic was involved.
This setup gives a sustained call rate in excess of 60000 calls/sec
before being CPU-bound on the server. The server was running 128 nfsds.
Profiling showed schedule() taking 6.7% of every CPU, and __wake_up()
taking 5.2%. This patch drops those contributions to 3.0% and 2.2%.
Load average was over 120 before the patch, and 20.9 after.
This patch is a forward-ported version of knfsd-avoid-nfsd-overload

Stop gathering the data that feeds the 'th' line in /proc/net/rpc/nfsd
because the questionable data provided is not worth the scalability
impact of calculating it. Instead, always report zeroes. The current
approach suffers from three major issues:
1. update_thread_usage() increments buckets by call service
time or call arrival time...in jiffies. On lightly loaded
machines, call service times are usually < 1 jiffy; on
heavily loaded machines call arrival times will be << 1 jiffy.
So a large portion of the updates to the buckets are rounded
down to zero, and the histogram is undercounting.
2. As seen previously on the nfs mailing list, the format in which
the histogram is presented is cryptic, difficult to explain,
and difficult to use.
3. Updating the histogram requires taking a global spinlock and
dirtying the global variables nfsd_last_call, nfsd_busy, and
nfsdstats *twice* on every RPC call, which is a significant
scaling limitation.
Testing on a 4 CPU 4 NIC Altix using 4 IRIX clients each doing
1K streaming reads at full line rate, shows the stats update code
(inlined into nfsd()) takes about 1.7% of each CPU. This patch drops
the contribution from nfsd() into the profile noise.
This patch is a forward-ported version of knfsd-remove-nfsd-threadstats
which has been shipping in the SGI "Enhanced NFS" product since 2006.
In that time, exactly one customer has noticed that the threadstats
were missing. It has been previously posted:

If a filesystem being written to via NFS returns a short write count
(as opposed to an error) to nfsd, nfsd treats that as a success for
the entire write, rather than the short count that actually succeeded.
For example, given a 8192 byte write, if the underlying filesystem
only writes 4096 bytes, nfsd will ack back to the nfs client that all
8192 bytes were written. The nfs client does have retry logic for
short writes, but this is never called as the client is told the
complete write succeeded.
There are probably other ways it could happen, but in my case it
happened with a fuse (filesystem in userspace) filesystem which can
rather easily have a partial write.
Here is a patch to properly return the short write count to the
client.
