/* * linux/fs/nfs/direct.c * * Copyright (C) 2003 by Chuck Lever * * High-performance uncached I/O for the Linux NFS client * * There are important applications whose performance or correctness * depends on uncached access to file data. Database clusters * (multiple copies of the same instance running on separate hosts) * implement their own cache coherency protocol that subsumes file * system cache protocols. Applications that process datasets * considerably larger than the client's memory do not always benefit * from a local cache. A streaming video server, for instance, has no * need to cache the contents of a file. * * When an application requests uncached I/O, all read and write requests * are made directly to the server; data stored or fetched via these * requests is not cached in the Linux page cache. The client does not * correct unaligned requests from applications. All requested bytes are * held on permanent storage before a direct write system call returns to * an application. * * Solaris implements an uncached I/O facility called directio() that * is used for backups and sequential I/O to very large files. Solaris * also supports uncaching whole NFS partitions with "-o forcedirectio," * an undocumented mount option. * * Designed by Jeff Kimmel, Chuck Lever, and Trond Myklebust, with * help from Andrew Morton. * * 18 Dec 2001 Initial implementation for 2.4 --cel * 08 Jul 2002 Version for 2.4.19, with bug fixes --trondmy * 08 Jun 2003 Port to 2.5 APIs --cel * 31 Mar 2004 Handle direct I/O without VFS support --cel * 15 Sep 2004 Parallel async reads --cel * 04 May 2005 support O_DIRECT with aio --cel * */ #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include "internal.h" #include "iostat.h" #define NFSDBG_FACILITY NFSDBG_VFS static struct kmem_cache *nfs_direct_cachep; /* * This represents a set of asynchronous requests that we're waiting on */ struct nfs_direct_req { struct kref kref; /* release manager */ /* I/O parameters */ struct nfs_open_context *ctx; /* file open context info */ struct kiocb * iocb; /* controlling i/o request */ struct inode * inode; /* target file of i/o */ /* completion state */ atomic_t io_count; /* i/os we're waiting for */ spinlock_t lock; /* protect completion state */ ssize_t count, /* bytes actually processed */ error; /* any reported error */ struct completion completion; /* wait for i/o completion */ /* commit state */ struct list_head rewrite_list; /* saved nfs_write_data structs */ struct nfs_write_data * commit_data; /* special write_data for commits */ int flags; #define NFS_ODIRECT_DO_COMMIT (1) /* an unstable reply was received */ #define NFS_ODIRECT_RESCHED_WRITES (2) /* write verification failed */ struct nfs_writeverf verf; /* unstable write verifier */ }; static void nfs_direct_write_complete(struct nfs_direct_req *dreq, struct inode *inode); static const struct rpc_call_ops nfs_write_direct_ops; static inline void get_dreq(struct nfs_direct_req *dreq) { atomic_inc(&dreq->io_count); } static inline int put_dreq(struct nfs_direct_req *dreq) { return atomic_dec_and_test(&dreq->io_count); } /** * nfs_direct_IO - NFS address space operation for direct I/O * @rw: direction (read or write) * @iocb: target I/O control block * @iov: array of vectors that define I/O buffer * @pos: offset in file to begin the operation * @nr_segs: size of iovec array * * The presence of this routine in the address space ops vector means * the NFS client supports direct I/O.
