The svc_tcp_accept function calls svc_sock_enqueue after setting the
SK_CONN bit. This doesn't actually do anything because the SK_BUSY bit
is still set. The call is unnecessary anyway because the generic code in
svc_recv calls svc_sock_received after calling the accept function.

Previously, the accept logic looked into the socket state to determine
whether to call accept or recv when data-ready was indicated on an endpoint.
Since some transports don't use sockets, this logic now uses a flag
bit (SK_LISTENER) to identify listening endpoints. A transport function
(xpo_accept) allows each transport to define its own accept processing.
A transport's initialization logic is reponsible for setting the
SK_LISTENER bit. I didn't see any way to do this in transport independent
logic since the passive side of a UDP connection doesn't listen and
always recv's.
In the svc_recv function, if the SK_LISTENER bit is set, the transport
xpo_accept function is called to handle accept processing.
Note that all functions are defined even if they don't make sense
for a given transport. For example, accept doesn't mean anything for
UDP. The function is defined anyway and bug checks if called. The
UDP transport should never set the SK_LISTENER bit.

In order to avoid blocking a service thread, the receive side checks

We currently use a special structure (struct skb_timeval) and plain
'struct timeval' to store packet timestamps in sk_buffs and struct
sock.
This has some drawbacks :
- Fixed resolution of micro second.
- Waste of space on 64bit platforms where sizeof(struct timeval)=16
I suggest using ktime_t that is a nice abstraction of high resolution
time services, currently capable of nanosecond resolution.
As sizeof(ktime_t) is 8 bytes, using ktime_t in 'struct sock' permits
a 8 byte shrink of this structure on 64bit architectures. Some other
structures also benefit from this size reduction (struct ipq in
ipv4/ip_fragment.c, struct frag_queue in ipv6/reassembly.c, ...)
Once this ktime infrastructure adopted, we can more easily provide
nanosecond resolution on top of it. (ioctl SIOCGSTAMPNS and/or
SO_TIMESTAMPNS/SCM_TIMESTAMPNS)
Note : this patch includes a bug correction in
compat_sock_get_timestamp() where a "err = 0;" was missing (so this

If the socket is busy - i.e. if a request has arrived that has not yet been

The sunrpc server code needs to know the source and destination address for

So, rip that out and use recv_msg instead. This is a much cleaner interface,

Introduces svc_close_socket which sets SK_CLOSE then either leave
the close up to a thread, or calls svc_delete_socket if it can
get SK_BUSY.
Adds a bias to sk_busy which is removed when SK_DEAD is set,
This avoid races around shutting down the socket.

A recent patch fixed a problem which would occur when the refcount on an
auth_domain reached zero. This problem has not been reported in practice
despite existing in two major kernel releases because the refcount can
never reach zero.
This patch fixes the problems that stop the refcount reaching zero.
1/ We were adding to the refcount when inserting in the hash table,
but only removing from the hashtable when the refcount reached zero.
Obviously it never would. So don't count the implied reference of
being in the hash table.
2/ There are two paths on which a socket can be destroyed. One called
svcauth_unix_info_release(). The other didn't. So when the other was
taken, we can lose a reference to an ip_map which in-turn holds a
reference to an auth_domain
So unify the exit paths into svc_sock_put. This highlights the fact
that svc_delete_socket has slightly odd semantics - it does not drop
a reference but probably should. Fixing this need a bit more
thought and testing.

This patch is suitable for just about any 2.6 kernel. It should go in
2.6.19 and 2.6.18.2 and possible even the .17 and .16 stable series.
This is a long standing bug that seems to have only recently become
apparent, presumably due to increasing use of NFS over TCP - many
distros seem to be making it the default.
The SK_CONN bit gets set when a listening socket may be ready
for an accept, just as SK_DATA is set when data may be available.
It is entirely possible for svc_tcp_accept to be called with neither
of these set. It doesn't happen often but there is a small race in
svc_sock_enqueue as SK_CONN and SK_DATA are tested outside the
spin_lock. They could be cleared immediately after the test and
before the lock is gained.
This normally shouldn't be a problem. The sockets are non-blocking so
trying to read() or accept() when ther is nothing to do is not a problem.
However: svc_tcp_recvfrom makes the decision "Should I accept() or
should I read()" based on whether SK_CONN is set or not. This usually
works but is not safe. The decision should be based on whether it is
a TCP_LISTEN socket or a TCP_CONNECTED socket.

There is some confusion about the meaning of 'bufsz' for a sunrpc server.
In some cases it is the largest message that can be sent or received. In
other cases it is the largest 'payload' that can be included in a NFS
message.
In either case, it is not possible for both the request and the reply to be
this large. One of the request or reply may only be one page long, which
fits nicely with NFS.
So we remove 'bufsz' and replace it with two numbers: 'max_payload' and
'max_mesg'. Max_payload is the size that the server requests. It is used
by the server to check the max size allowed on a particular connection:
depending on the protocol a lower limit might be used.
max_mesg is the largest single message that can be sent or received. It is
calculated as the max_payload, rounded up to a multiple of PAGE_SIZE, and
with PAGE_SIZE added to overhead. Only one of the request and reply may be
this size. The other must be at most one page.

Speed up high call-rate workloads by caching the struct ip_map for the peer on
the connected struct svc_sock instead of looking it up in the ip_map cache
hashtable on every call. This helps workloads using AUTH_SYS authentication
over TCP.
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.
Profiling showed strcmp(), called from ip_map_match(), was taking 4.8% of each
CPU, and ip_map_lookup() was taking 2.9%. This patch drops both contribution
into the profile noise.
Note that the above result overstates this value of this patch for most
workloads. The synthetic clients are all using separate IP addresses, so
there are 64 entries in the ip_map cache hash. Because the kernel measured
contained the bug fixed in commit
commit 1f1e030bf7
and was running on 64bit little-endian machine, probably all of those 64
entries were on a single chain, thus increasing the cost of ip_map_lookup().
With a modern kernel you would need more clients to see the same amount of
performance improvement. This patch has helped to scale knfsd to handle a
deployment with 2000 NFS clients.

.. by allocating the array of 'kvec' in 'struct svc_rqst'.
As we plan to increase RPCSVC_MAXPAGES from 8 upto 256, we can no longer
allocate an array of this size on the stack. So we allocate it in 'struct
svc_rqst'.
However svc_rqst contains (indirectly) an array of the same type and size
(actually several, but they are in a union). So rather than waste space, we
move those arrays out of the separately allocated union and into svc_rqst to
share with the kvec moved out of svc_tcp_recvfrom (various arrays are used at
different times, so there is no conflict).
