[PATCH v1 00/13] server-side support for "inter" SSC copy

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

 



This patch series adds support for NFSv4.2 copy offload feature
allowing copy between two different NFS servers.

This feature is enabled by the kernel module parameter --
inter_copy_offload_enable -- and by default is disabled. There is
also a kernel compile configuration of NFSD_V4_2_INTER_SSC that
adds dependency on the NFS client side functions called from the
server.

These patches work on top of 4 existing async intra copy offload
patches. For the "inter" SSC, the implementation only supports
asynchronous inter copy.

On the source server, upon receiving a COPY_NOTIFY, it generate a
unique stateid that's kept in the global list. Upon receiving a READ
with a stateid, the code checks the normal list of open stateid and
now additionally, it'll check the copy state list as well before
deciding to either fail with BAD_STATEID or find one that matches.
The stored stateid is only valid to be used for the first time
with a choosen lease period (90s currently). When the source server
received an OFFLOAD_CANCEL, it will remove the stateid from the
global list. Otherwise, the copy stateid is removed upon the removal
of its "parent" stateid (open/lock/delegation stateid).

On the destination server, upon receiving a COPY request, the server
establishes the necessary clientid/session with the source server.
It calls into the NFS client code to establish the necessary
open stateid, filehandle, file description (without doing an NFS open).
Then the server calls into the copy_file_range() to preform the copy
where the source file will issue NFS READs and then do local file
system writes (this depends on the VFS ability to do cross device
copy_file_range().

Client-side patches are included for the ease of testing.
