Dear Bruce,
Could it be that commit c54f24e3 (nfsd: fix performance-limiting session
calculation) causes a regression on big memory machines (1 TB)?

Booting a 80 threads, 1 TB server with Linux 4.19.56 and Linux 5.2-rc7
causes connections problems for the clients. The problems do not happen
on servers with just 96 GB memory for example. Bisecting points to the
two commits below (and I can only continue tomorrow).
c54f24e338ed2a35218f117a4a1afb5f9e2b4e64 (nfsd: fix performance-limiting
session calculation)
8127d82705998568b52ac724e28e00941538083d (NFS: Don't recoalesce on error
in nfs_pageio_complete_mirror())
If you have things I could do to verify this besides reverting it
tomorrow, please tell. It’d be great if it could be fixed before Linux
5.2 is released.
Kind regards,
Paul

Reverting the suspected commit c54f24e3 indeed fixes the regression.
Please tell me how to continue. Should the commit be reverted or can
a fix be made shortly?
On a running system, `rpcdebug -m nfsd -s all` and
`rpcdebug -m rpc -s all` do not give a lot of information, as the
interesting values are set during module initialization.
Kind regards,
Paul

Since commit 10a68cdf10 (nfsd: fix performance-limiting session
calculation) (Linux 5.1-rc1 and 4.19.31), shares from NFS servers with
1 TB of memory cannot be mounted anymore. The mount just hangs on the
client.
The gist of commit 10a68cdf10 is the change below.
-avail = clamp_t(int, avail, slotsize, avail/3);
+avail = clamp_t(int, avail, slotsize, total_avail/3);
Here are the macros.
#define min_t(type, x, y) __careful_cmp((type)(x), (type)(y), <)
#define clamp_t(type, val, lo, hi) min_t(type, max_t(type, val, lo), hi)
`total_avail` is 8,434,659,328 on the 1 TB machine. `clamp_t()` casts
the values to `int`, which for 32-bit integers can only hold values
−2,147,483,648 (−2^31) through 2,147,483,647 (2^31 − 1).
`avail` (in the function signature) is just 65536, so that no overflow
was happening. Before the commit the assignment would result in 21845,
and `num = 4`.
When using `total_avail`, it is causing the assignment to be
18446744072226137429 (printed as %lu), and `num` is then 4164608182.
My next guess is, that `nfsd_drc_mem_used` is then exceeded, and the
server thinks there is no memory available any more for this client.
Updating the arguments of `clamp_t()` and `min_t()` to `unsigned long`
fixes the issue.
Now, `avail = 65536` (before commit 10a68cdf10 `avail = 21845`), but
`num = 4` remains the same.

1. No, idea if `min_t()` arguments also need updating.
2. Instead of `unsigned long`, should `size_t` be used?

Good catch! And thanks for the detailed explanation. Applying for 5.2
and stable.

Thanks. Please note, that in the last part are some guesses, and I am not
well versed in the terminology. So please feel free to reword the commit
messages.
Kind regards,
Paul

I haven't checked all the arithmetic, but it sounds pretty plausible to
me, and clearly that type was wrong.
