From: Olga Kornievskaia <kolga@xxxxxxxxxx> This patch series adds client-side support for doing NFSv4.2 "inter" copy offload between different NFS servers. In case of the "inter" SSC copy files reside on different servers and thus under different superblocks and require that VFS removes the restriction that src and dst files must be on the same superblock. NFS's copy_file_range() determines if the copy is "intra" or "inter" and for "inter" it sends the COPY_NOTIFY to the source server. Then, it would send of an asynchronous COPY to the destination server. If an application cancels an in-flight COPY, OFFLOAD_CANCEL is sent to both of the servers. This patch series also include necessary client-side additions that are performed by the destination server. The server needs an NFS open that represents a source file without doing an actual open. Two function nfs42_ssc_open/nfs42_ssc_close() are introduced to accomplish it that make use of the VFS's alloc_file_pseudo() to represent an open. Also this particular open is marked (NFS_SVC_SSC_COPY_STATE) so that if the destination server ever to receive stateid errors on this stateid, it knows not to initiate state recovery (in case when source server reboots). The recovery must be done by the client and a new copy must be initiated. Therefore, in this case the recovery needs to fail with EIO. v2: -- VFS changes are to remove VFS check for same copy_file_range functions before calling it. Instead add the appropriate checks to the existing implementors of the copy_file_range. -- Changed the check for the "intra" vs "inter" based on the serverowner instead of the IPs and merged it with the 1st caller patch -- Addressed Anna's comments to ifdef the nfs42_copy_notify in nfs42.h to make for proper compiling -- Removed a leftover dprintk from the nfs42_ssc_open Olga Kornievskaia (13): VFS permit cross device vfs_copy_file_range CIFS: add cross-device check for copy_file_range OverlayFS: add cross-device check for copy_file_range NFS: add cross file system check for copy_file_range VFS: Don't copy beyond the end of the file NFS NFSD defining nl4_servers structure needed by both NFS add COPY_NOTIFY operation NFS add ca_source_server<> to COPY NFS also send OFFLOAD_CANCEL to source server NFS inter ssc open NFS skip recovery of copy open on dest server NFS for "inter" copy treat ESTALE as ENOTSUPP NFS COPY handle ERR_OFFLOAD_DENIED Documentation/filesystems/porting | 7 ++ Documentation/filesystems/vfs.txt | 6 +- fs/cifs/cifsfs.c | 2 + fs/nfs/nfs42.h | 15 ++- fs/nfs/nfs42proc.c | 129 ++++++++++++++++++++++--- fs/nfs/nfs42xdr.c | 193 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++- fs/nfs/nfs4_fs.h | 10 ++ fs/nfs/nfs4client.c | 2 +- fs/nfs/nfs4file.c | 122 +++++++++++++++++++++++- fs/nfs/nfs4proc.c | 6 +- fs/nfs/nfs4state.c | 14 +++ fs/nfs/nfs4xdr.c | 1 + fs/overlayfs/file.c | 3 + fs/read_write.c | 12 +-- include/linux/nfs4.h | 25 +++++ include/linux/nfs_fs_sb.h | 1 + include/linux/nfs_xdr.h | 17 ++++ 17 files changed, 539 insertions(+), 26 deletions(-) -- 1.8.3.1
