significantly. Upon investigation this was caused by name cache
misses for lookups of "..". For name cache entries for non-".."
directories, the cache entry serves double duty. It maps both the
named directory plus ".." for the parent of the directory. As such,
two ctime values (one for each of the directory and its parent) need
to be saved in the name cache entry.
This patch adds an entry for ctime of the parent directory to the
name cache. It also adds an additional uma zone for large entries
with this time value, in order to minimize memory wastage.
As well, it fixes a couple of cases where the mtime of the parent
directory was being saved instead of ctime for positive name cache
entries. With this patch, Lookup RPC counts return to values similar
to pre-r230394 kernels.

that it is a read-ahead or write-behind. This patch fixes this.

clearer and safer with the patch, so I am going to leave it in.
Without this patch, it was possible that a NFSv4 VOP_SETATTR() could have

the process doing the VOP_SETATTR() did not have the file open, but
some other process running as a different uid had the file open for writing

harmful because not only i/o started from corresponding thread becomes
synchronous, but all i/o is synchronous on the filesystem which is

Instead of removing MNTK_ASYNC from mnt_kern_flag, provide a local
thread flag to disable async i/o for current thread only. Use the
opportunity to move DOINGASYNC() macro into sys/vnode.h and

NFS clients was reported to freebsd-fs@ under the subject "NFS
corruption in recent HEAD" on Nov. 26, 2011. This problem occurred when
a TCP mounted root fs was changed to using UDP. I believe that this
problem was caused by the change in mnt_stat.f_iosize that occurred
because rsize was decreased to the maximum supported by UDP. This
patch fixes the problem by using v_bufobj.bo_bsize instead of f_iosize,
since the latter is set to f_iosize when the vnode is allocated, but
does not change for a given vnode when f_iosize changes.

entries on one client when a directory was renamed on another client. The
root cause for the stale entry being trusted is that each per-vnode nfsnode
structure has a single 'n_ctime' timestamp used to validate positive name
cache entries. However, if there are multiple entries for a single vnode,
they all share a single timestamp. To fix this, extend the name cache
to allow filesystems to optionally store a timestamp value in each name
cache entry. The NFS clients now fetch the timestamp associated with
each name cache entry and use that to validate cache hits instead of the
timestamps previously stored in the nfsnode. Another part of the fix is
that the NFS clients now use timestamps from the post-op attributes of
RPCs when adding name cache entries rather than pulling the timestamps out
of the file's attribute cache. The latter is subject to races with other
lookups updating the attribute cache concurrently. Some more details:
- Add a variant of nfsm_postop_attr() to the old NFS client that can return
a vattr structure with a copy of the post-op attributes.
- Handle lookups of "." as a special case in the NFS clients since the name
cache does not store name cache entries for ".", so we cannot get a
useful timestamp. It didn't really make much sense to recheck the
attributes on the the directory to validate the namecache hit for "."
anyway.
- ABI compat shims for the name cache routines are present in this commit
so that it is safe to MFC.

jhb@ spotted that nfscl_getstateid() might modify credentials when
called from nfsrpc_read() for the case where p != NULL, whereas
nfsrpc_read() only did a crdup() to get new credentials for p == NULL.
This bug was introduced by r195510, since pre-r195510 nfscl_getstateid()

nfsrpc_read()/nfsrpc_write() so that they do crdup() for the p != NULL case.

the client to do a ReleaseLockOwner operation when the process that

server to release any storage related to the lock_owner4 string
before the associated open is closed. Without this change, it
is possible to exhaust a server's storage when a long running
process opens a file and then many child processes do locking
on the file, because the open doesn't get closed. A similar patch

Some cases require special handling, such as mmap(2), which must preserve

narrowing the rights in the existing max_protection field used for similar
