From: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> The following updates try to simplify some of the attribute caching, and further split out the attribute cache tracking. In particular, we want to make use of the fact that NFSv4.x doesn't always need to retrieve all the attributes to optimise the way we use the GETATTR call. v2: - A number of changes to try to clean up the cache invalidation flags. - Fix a bug that was turning off revalidation for most attributes in nfs_getattr(). - Fixes to allow us to reduce the set of attributes we request from the server when holding a delegation. In particular, try to reduce requests for OWNER and GROUP_OWNER, since those may result in expensive upcalls. Trond Myklebust (26): NFS: Deal correctly with attribute generation counter overflow NFS: Fix up inode cache tracing NFS: Mask out unsupported attributes in nfs_getattr() NFS: NFS_INO_REVAL_PAGECACHE should mark the change attribute invalid NFS: Fix up revalidation of space used NFS: Don't revalidate attributes that are not being asked for NFS: Fix up statx() results NFS: nfs_setattr_update_inode() should clear the suid/sgid bits NFS: Add a cache validity flag argument to nfs_revalidate_inode() NFS: Replace use of NFS_INO_REVAL_PAGECACHE when checking cache validity NFS: Don't set NFS_INO_REVAL_PAGECACHE in the inode cache validity NFSv4: Fix nfs4_bitmap_copy_adjust() NFS: Separate tracking of file nlinks cache validity from the mode/uid/gid NFS: Separate tracking of file mode cache validity from the uid/gid NFS: Fix up handling of outstanding layoutcommit in nfs_update_inode() NFS: Remove a line of code that has no effect in nfs_update_inode() NFS: Simplify cache consistency in nfs_check_inode_attributes() NFSv4: Fix value of decode_fsinfo_maxsz NFSv4: Don't modify the change attribute cached in the inode NFSv4: Add support for the NFSv4.2 "change_attr_type" attribute NFS: Use information about the change attribute to optimise updates NFS: Another inode revalidation improvement NFSv4: nfs4_inc/dec_nlink_locked should also invalidate ctime NFSv4: link must update the inode nlink.
