[PATCH 0/5] 2.6.21-rc7 NFS writes: fix a series of issues

[PATCH 0/5] 2.6.21-rc7 NFS writes: fix a series of issues

[Trond Myklebust]

I've split the issues introduced by the 2.6.21-rcX write code up into 4
subproblems.

The first patch is just a cleanup in order to ease review.

Patch number 2 ensures that we never release the PG_writeback flag until
_after_ we've either discarded the unstable request altogether, or put it
on the nfs_inode's commit or dirty lists.

Patch number 3 fixes the 'desynchronized value of nfs_i.ncommit' error. It
uses the PG_NEED_COMMIT flag as an indicator for whether or not the request
may be redirtied.

Patch number 4 protects the NFS '.set_page_dirty' address_space operation
against races with nfs_inode_add_request.

Finally, patch number 5 fixes an issue with the RPC code that is supposed
ensure that NFSv4 disconnects before resending a request. The current code
will disconnect for every request it resends (and has a bunch of false
positive cases), instead of just ensuring that it disconnects once every
time a timeout or a garbage reply occurs.

My thanks to the various patient victim^Wpeople who helped with extensive
testing.

Cheers
  Trond

[PATCH 2/5] NFS: Don't clear PG_writeback until after we've processed unstable writes

[Trond Myklebust]

From: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

Ensure that we don't release the PG_writeback lock until after the page has
either been redirtied, or queued on the nfs_inode 'commit' list.

[PATCH 3/5] NFS: Fix the 'desynchronized value of nfs_i.ncommit' error

[Trond Myklebust]

From: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

Redirtying a request that is already marked for commit will screw up the
accounting for NR_UNSTABLE_NFS as well as nfs_i.ncommit.
Ensure that all requests on the commit queue are labelled with the
PG_NEED_COMMIT flag, and avoid moving them onto the dirty list inside
nfs_page_mark_flush().

Also inline nfs_mark_request_dirty() into nfs_page_mark_flush() for
atomicity reasons. Avoid dropping the spinlock until we're done marking the
request in the radix tree and have added it to the ->dirty list.

[PATCH 5/5] RPC: Fix the TCP resend semantics for NFSv4

[Trond Myklebust]

From: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

Fix a regression due to the patch "NFS: disconnect before retrying NFSv4
requests over TCP"

The assumption made in xprt_transmit() that the condition
	"req->rq_bytes_sent == 0 and request is on the receive list"
should imply that we're dealing with a retransmission is false.
Firstly, it may simply happen that the socket send queue was full
at the time the request was initially sent through xprt_transmit().
Secondly, doing this for each request that was retransmitted implies
that we disconnect and reconnect for _every_ request that happened to
be retransmitted irrespective of whether or not a disconnection has
already occurred.

Fix is to move this logic into the call_status request timeout handler.
