This is a revision of my series for cleaning up server thread management. Currently lockd, nfsd, and nfs-callback all manage threads slightly differently. This series unifies them. Changes since first series include: - minor bug fixes - kernel-doc comments for new functions - split first patch into 3, and make the bugfix a separate patch - fix management of pool_maps so lockd can usse svc_set_num_threads safely - switch nfs-callback to not request a 'pooled' service. NeilBrown --- NeilBrown (19): SUNRPC/NFSD: clean up get/put functions. NFSD: handle error better in write_ports_addfd() SUNRPC: stop using ->sv_nrthreads as a refcount nfsd: make nfsd_stats.th_cnt atomic_t SUNRPC: use sv_lock to protect updates to sv_nrthreads. NFSD: narrow nfsd_mutex protection in nfsd thread NFSD: Make it possible to use svc_set_num_threads_sync SUNRPC: discard svo_setup and rename svc_set_num_threads_sync() NFSD: simplify locking for network notifier. lockd: introduce nlmsvc_serv lockd: simplify management of network status notifiers lockd: move lockd_start_svc() call into lockd_create_svc() lockd: move svc_exit_thread() into the thread lockd: introduce lockd_put() lockd: rename lockd_create_svc() to lockd_get() SUNRPC: move the pool_map definitions (back) into svc.c SUNRPC: always treat sv_nrpools==1 as "not pooled" lockd: use svc_set_num_threads() for thread start and stop NFS: switch the callback service back to non-pooled. fs/lockd/svc.c | 194 ++++++++++++------------------------- fs/nfs/callback.c | 12 +-- fs/nfsd/netns.h | 13 +-- fs/nfsd/nfsctl.c | 24 ++--- fs/nfsd/nfssvc.c | 139 +++++++++++++------------- fs/nfsd/stats.c | 2 +- fs/nfsd/stats.h | 4 +- include/linux/sunrpc/svc.h | 58 ++++------- net/sunrpc/svc.c | 166 ++++++++++++++----------------- 9 files changed, 248 insertions(+), 364 deletions(-) -- Signature
