[PATCH 0/29] NFSv4.1 Server DRC rewrite Version 2

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Version 2 of the NFSv4.1 DRC rewrite.

V1 -> V2 Differences:

1) Separate structure for the single slot clientid cache because it does not
need several of the fields that the sessions multiple slot cache needs, and
has a different static cache buffer size.

2) Move from a dynamic to a static buffer allocation for the sessions DRC
because we can't promise the client to be able to cache a response and then
run out of memory and not be able to cache a response.
Switch from a 1024 byte to a 512 byte buffer.

3) Removed struct nfsd4_cache_entry, replaced by new nfsd4_slot fields.

4) Global DRC memory limit tracking.


This is a rewrite of the NFSv4.1 DRC, switching from a page based cache to
a buffer based cache. The logic for the single slot clientid cache has been
separated from the session slot logic to handle the CREATE_SESSION call
preceeded by a SEQUENCE and all the replay combinations therein.

The session DRC now caches encoded operations with the exception of the
SEQUENCE operation which for a replay is encoded with the current slot and
session values.  A review of message sizes indicates that a 512 byte buffer
for the operations is adequate.

Not addressed is the necessary pre-operation processing estimate of the encoded
per operation result to check against the negotiated fore channel maximum
response size cached.

I've tested NFSv4.1 mounts using Connectathon and the new pynfs 4.1 tests,
where I added two new Clientid cache replay tests [to be submitted]to
st_create_session.py.

I've tested NFSv4.0 mounts using Connectathon and the pynfs v4.0 tests.

As always, comments and suggestions welcome.
