o In vm_pager_bufferinit() create pbuf_zone and start accounting on how many
pbufs are we going to have set.
In various subsystems that are going to utilize pbufs create private zones
via call to pbuf_zsecond_create(). The latter calls uma_zsecond_create(),
and sets a limit on created zone. After startup preallocate pbufs according
to requirements of all pbuf zones.
Subsystems that used to have a private limit with old allocator now have
private pbuf zones: md(4), fusefs, NFS client, smbfs, VFS cluster, FFS,
swap, vnode pager.
The following subsystems use shared pbuf zone: cam(4), nvme(4), physio(9),
aio(4). They should have their private limits, but changing that is out of
scope of this commit.
o Fetch tunable value of kern.nswbuf from init_param2() and while here move
NSWBUF_MIN to opt_param.h and eliminate opt_swap.h, that was holding only

Default values aren't touched by this commit, but they probably should be
reviewed wrt to modern hardware.
This change removes a tight bottleneck from sendfile(2) operation, that
uses pbufs in vnode pager. Other pagers also would benefit from faster
allocation.

When a NFSv4.1 client mount using pNFS detects a failure trying to do a
Renew (actually just a Sequence operation), the code would simply try
again and again and again every 30sec.
This would tie up the "nfscl" thread, which should also be doing other
things like Renews on other DSs and the MDS.
This patch adds code which closes down the TCP connection and marks it
defunct when Renew detects an failure to communicate with the DS, so
further Renews will not be attempted until a new working TCP connection to
the DS is established.
It also makes the call to nfscl_cancelreqs() unconditional, since
nfscl_cancelreqs() checks the NFSCLDS_SAMECONN flag and does so while holding
the lock.
This fix only applies to the NFSv4.1 client whne using pNFS and without it
the only effect would have been an "nfscl" thread busy doing Renew attempts
on an unresponsive DS.

an I/O attempt on a DS to the server via LayoutReturn.
The current FreeBSD client can generate these errors for an operational
DS while doing a recovery of a mirror after a mirrored DS has been repaired.
I am not sure why these errors occur, but my best current guess is a race
between the Layout Recall issued by the kernel code run from pnfsdscopymr(8)
and a Read operation on the DS for the file bing copied.
The errrors are not fatal, since the client falls back on doing I/O through
the MDS, which can do the I/O successfully as a proxy. (The fact that the
MDS can do this indicates that the file does still exist on the functioning
DS.)
This patch only affects behaviour of the pNFS client and only when using

Without this patch, the NFSv4.1 pNFS client shared a single TCP connection

is no longer functioning correctly, but the storage used by another DS on
the same machine is still ok. For this case, it would be nice if a system
can fail one of the DSs without failing them all.
This patch changes the default behaviour to use separate TCP connections
for each DS even if they reside on the same machine.
I do not believe that this will be a problem for extant pNFS servers, but
a sysctl can be set to restore the old behaviour if this change causes a

the old encodings for the lower 16 and 32 bits and only using the
higher 32 bits for unusually large major and minor numbers. This
change breaks compatibility with the previous encoding (which was only
used in -current).
Fix truncation to (essentially) 16-bit dev_t in newnfs v3.
Any encoding of device numbers gives an ABI, so it can't be changed
without translations for compatibility. Extra bits give the much
larger complication that the translations need to compress into fewer
bits. Fortunately, more than 32 bits are rarely needed, so
compression is rarely needed except for 16-bit linux dev_t where it
was always needed but never done.
The previous encoding moved the major number into the top 32 bits.
Almost no translation code handled this, so the major number was blindly
truncated away in most 32-bit encodings. E.g., for ffs, mknod(8) with
major = 1 and minor = 2 gave dev_t = 0x10000002; ffs cannot represent
this and blindly truncated it to 2. But if this mknod was run on any
released version of FreeBSD, it gives dev_t = 0x102. ffs can represent
this, but in the previous encoding it was not decoded, giving major = 0,
minor = 0x102.
The presence of bugs was most obvious for exporting dev_t's from an
old system to -current, since bugs in newnfs augment them. I fixed
oldnfs to support 32-bit dev_t in 1996 (r16634), but this regressed
to 16-bit dev_t in newnfs, first to the old 16-bit encoding and then
further in -current. E.g., old ad0 with major = 234, minor = 0x10002
had the correct (major, minor) number on the wire, but newnfs truncated
this to (234, 2) and then the previous encoding shifted the major
number into oblivion as seen by ffs or old applications.
I first tried to fix this by translating on every ABI/API boundary, but
there are too many boundaries and too many sloppy translations by blind
truncation. So use the old encoding for the low 32 bits so that sloppy
translations work no worse than before provided the high 32 bits are
not set. Add some error checking for when bits are lost. Keep not
doing any error checking for translations for almost everything in
compat/linux.
compat/freebsd32/freebsd32_misc.c:
Optionally check for losing bits after possibly-truncating assignments as
before.
compat/linux/linux_stats.c:
Depend on the representation being compatible with Linux's (or just with
itself for local use) and spell some of the translations as assignments in
a macro that hides the details.
fs/nfsclient/nfs_clcomsubs.c:
Essentially the same fix as in 1996, except there is now no possible
truncation in makedev() itself. Also fix nearby style bugs.
kern/vfs_syscalls.c:
As for freebsd32. Also update the sysctl description to include file
numbers, and change it to describe device ids as device numbers.
sys/types.h:
Use inline functions (wrapped by macros) since the expressions are now
a bit too complicated for plain macros. Describe the encoding and
some of the reasons for it. 16-bit compatibility didn't leave many
reasonable choices for the 32-bit encoding, and 32-bit compatibility
doesn't leave many reasonable choices for the 64-bit encoding. My
choice is to put the 8 new minor bits in the low 8 bits of the top 32
bits. This minimizes discontiguities.

This code merge adds a pNFS service to the NFSv4.1 server. Although it is
a large commit it should not affect behaviour for a non-pNFS NFS server.
Some documentation on how this works can be found at:
http://people.freebsd.org/~rmacklem/pnfs-planb-setup.txt
and will hopefully be turned into a proper document soon.
This is a merge of the kernel code. Userland and man page changes will
come soon, once the dust settles on this merge.
It has passed a "make universe", so I hope it will not cause build problems.
It also adds NFSv4.1 server support for the "current stateid".
Here is a brief overview of the pNFS service:
A pNFS service separates the Read/Write oeprations from all the other NFSv4.1
Metadata operations. It is hoped that this separation allows a pNFS service
to be configured that exceeds the limits of a single NFS server for either
storage capacity and/or I/O bandwidth.
It is possible to configure mirroring within the data servers (DSs) so that
the data storage file for an MDS file will be mirrored on two or more of
the DSs.
When this is used, failure of a DS will not stop the pNFS service and a
failed DS can be recovered once repaired while the pNFS service continues
to operate. Although two way mirroring would be the norm, it is possible
to set a mirroring level of up to four or the number of DSs, whichever is
less.
The Metadata server will always be a single point of failure,
just as a single NFS server is.
A Plan B pNFS service consists of a single MetaData Server (MDS) and K
Data Servers (DS), all of which are recent FreeBSD systems.
Clients will mount the MDS as they would a single NFS server.
When files are created, the MDS creates a file tree identical to what a
single NFS server creates, except that all the regular (VREG) files will
be empty. As such, if you look at the exported tree on the MDS directly
on the MDS server (not via an NFS mount), the files will all be of size 0.
Each of these files will also have two extended attributes in the system
attribute name space:
pnfsd.dsfile - This extended attrbute stores the information that
the MDS needs to find the data storage file(s) on DS(s) for this file.
pnfsd.dsattr - This extended attribute stores the Size, AccessTime, ModifyTime
and Change attributes for the file, so that the MDS doesn't need to
acquire the attributes from the DS for every Getattr operation.
For each regular (VREG) file, the MDS creates a data storage file on one
(or more if mirroring is enabled) of the DSs in one of the "dsNN"
subdirectories. The name of this file is the file handle
of the file on the MDS in hexadecimal so that the name is unique.
The DSs use subdirectories named "ds0" to "dsN" so that no one directory
gets too large. The value of "N" is set via the sysctl vfs.nfsd.dsdirsize
on the MDS, with the default being 20.
For production servers that will store a lot of files, this value should
probably be much larger.
It can be increased when the "nfsd" daemon is not running on the MDS,
once the "dsK" directories are created.
For pNFS aware NFSv4.1 clients, the FreeBSD server will return two pieces
of information to the client that allows it to do I/O directly to the DS.
DeviceInfo - This is relatively static information that defines what a DS
is. The critical bits of information returned by the FreeBSD
server is the IP address of the DS and, for the Flexible
File layout, that NFSv4.1 is to be used and that it is
"tightly coupled".
There is a "deviceid" which identifies the DeviceInfo.
Layout - This is per file and can be recalled by the server when it
is no longer valid. For the FreeBSD server, there is support
for two types of layout, call File and Flexible File layout.
Both allow the client to do I/O on the DS via NFSv4.1 I/O
operations. The Flexible File layout is a more recent variant
that allows specification of mirrors, where the client is
expected to do writes to all mirrors to maintain them in a
consistent state. The Flexible File layout also allows the
client to report I/O errors for a DS back to the MDS.
The Flexible File layout supports two variants referred to as
"tightly coupled" vs "loosely coupled". The FreeBSD server always
uses the "tightly coupled" variant where the client uses the
same credentials to do I/O on the DS as it would on the MDS.
For the "loosely coupled" variant, the layout specifies a
synthetic user/group that the client uses to do I/O on the DS.
The FreeBSD server does not do striping and always returns
layouts for the entire file. The critical information in a layout
is Read vs Read/Writea and DeviceID(s) that identify which
DS(s) the data is stored on.
At this time, the MDS generates File Layout layouts to NFSv4.1 clients
that know how to do pNFS for the non-mirrored DS case unless the sysctl
vfs.nfsd.default_flexfile is set non-zero, in which case Flexible File
layouts are generated.
The mirrored DS configuration always generates Flexible File layouts.
For NFS clients that do not support NFSv4.1 pNFS, all I/O operations
are done against the MDS which acts as a proxy for the appropriate DS(s).
When the MDS receives an I/O RPC, it will do the RPC on the DS as a proxy.
If the DS is on the same machine, the MDS/DS will do the RPC on the DS as
a proxy and so on, until the machine runs out of some resource, such as
session slots or mbufs.
As such, DSs must be separate systems from the MDS.

There were a couple of cases in newnfs_request() that it assumed that it
was an NFSv4.1 mount with a session. This should always be the case when
a Sequence operation is in the reply or the server replies NFSERR_BADSESSION.
However, if a server was broken and sent an erroneous reply, these safety
belt checks should avoid trouble.
The one check required a small tweak to nfsmnt_mdssession() so that it
returns NULL when there is no session instead of the offset of the field
in the structure (0x8 for i386).

On the one hand, FIFOs should respect other variables not supported by

These values are fs-specific and must come from a fs-specific method.
On the other hand, filesystems that support FIFOs are required to
support _PC_PIPE_BUF on directory vnodes that can contain FIFOs.
Given this latter requirement, once the fs-specific VOP_PATHCONF
method supports _PC_PIPE_BUF for directories, it is also suitable for
FIFOs permitting a single VOP_PATHCONF method to be used for both
FIFOs and non-FIFOs.
To that end, retire all of the FIFO-specific pathconf methods from

This patch adds support for the Flexible File Layout to the pNFS client.
Although the patch is rather large, it should only affect NFS mounts
using the "pnfs" option against pNFS servers that do not support File
Layout.
There are still a couple of things missing from the Flexible File Layout
client implementation:
- The code does not yet do a LayoutReturn with I/O error stats when
I/O error(s) occur when attempting to do I/O on a DS.
This will be fixed in a future commit, since it is important for the
MDS to know that I/O on a DS is failing.
- The current code does writes and commits to mirror DSs serially.
Making them happen concurrently will be done in a future commit,
after discussion on freebsd-current@ on the best way to do this.
- The code does not handle NFSv4.0 DSs. Since there is no extant pNFS
server that implements NFSv4.0 DSs and NFSv4.1 DSs makes more sense
now, I don't intend to implement this until there is a need for it.
There is support for NFSv4.1 and NFSv3 DSs.
