* NFS: Fix asynchronous read error handlingTrond Myklebust2006-12-061-71/+69
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We must always call ->read_done() before we truncate the page data, or decide to flag an error. The reasons are that in NFSv2, ->read_done() is where the eof flag gets set. in NFSv3/v4 ->read_done() handles EJUKEBOX-type errors, and v4 state recovery. However, we need to mark the pages as uptodate before we deal with short read errors, since we may need to modify the nfs_read_data arguments. We therefore split the current nfs_readpage_result() into two parts: nfs_readpage_result(), which calls ->read_done() etc, and nfs_readpage_retry(), which subsequently handles short reads. Note: Removing the code that retries in case of a short read also fixes a bug in nfs_direct_read_result(), which used to return a corrupted number of bytes.

* NFS Exclusive open not supported bugAndy Ryan2006-12-061-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | When trying to open a file with the O_EXCL flag over NFS on a server that does not support exclusive mode, the file does not open. The reason, rpc_call_sync returns a errno number, and not the nfs error number. I fixed it by changing the status check in nfs3proc.c. Either this is how it should be fixed, or rpc_call_sync should be fixed to return the NFS error.

* [PATCH] separate bdi congestion functions from queue congestion functionsAndrew Morton2006-10-201-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Separate out the concept of "queue congestion" from "backing-dev congestion". Congestion is a backing-dev concept, not a queue concept. The blk_* congestion functions are retained, as wrappers around the core backing-dev congestion functions. This proper layering is needed so that NFS can cleanly use the congestion functions, and so that CONFIG_BLOCK=n actually links.

* [PATCH] knfsd: be more selective in which sockets lockd listens onNeilBrown2006-10-021-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently lockd listens on UDP always, and TCP if CONFIG_NFSD_TCP is set. However as lockd performs services of the client as well, this is a problem. If CONFIG_NfSD_TCP is not set, and a tcp mount is used, the server will not be able to call back to lockd. So: - add an option to lockd_up saying which protocol is needed - Always open sockets for which an explicit port was given, otherwise only open a socket of the type required - Change nfsd to do one lockd_up per socket rather than one per thread. This - removes the dependancy on CONFIG_NFSD_TCP - means that lockd may open sockets other than at startup - means that lockd will *not* listen on UDP if the only mounts are TCP mount (and nfsd hasn't started). The latter is the only one that concerns me at all - I don't know if this might be a problem with some servers.

* [PATCH] Allow file systems to manually d_move() inside of ->rename()Mark Fasheh2006-09-242-7/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some file systems want to manually d_move() the dentries involved in a rename. We can do this by making use of the FS_ODD_RENAME flag if we just have nfs_rename() unconditionally do the d_move(). While there, we rename the flag to be more descriptive. OCFS2 uses this to protect that part of the rename operation with a cluster lock.
