[PATCH 00/20] NFSD support for multiple RPC/RDMA chunks

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

 



This series implements support for multiple RPC/RDMA chunks per RPC
transaction. This is one of the few remaining generalities that the
Linux NFS/RDMA server implementation lacks.

There is currently one known NFS/RDMA client implementation that can
send multiple chunks per RPC, and that is Solaris. Multiple chunks
are rare enough that the Linux NFS/RDMA implementation has been
successful without this support for many years.

Along with multiple chunk support, this series adds the following
benefits:

- More robust input sanitization of RPC/RDMA headers
- An internal representation of chunks that is agnostic to their
  wire format

The cost is a little additional complexity and some extra memory
allocations when handling non-empty chunk lists. Most of these
allocations can be optimized away if we find they are a problem.
