NFSD: add support for NFSv4 write delegation
The NFSv4 server currently supports read delegation using VFS lease
which is implemented using file_lock.
This patch series add write delegation support for NFSv4 server by:
. remove the check for F_WRLCK in generic_add_lease to allow
file_lock to be used for write delegation.
. grant write delegation for OPEN with NFS4_SHARE_ACCESS_WRITE
if there is no conflict with other OPENs.
Write delegation conflict with another OPEN, REMOVE, RENAME and SETATTR
are handled the same as read delegation using notify_change, try_break_deleg.
Changes since v1:
[PATCH 3/4] NFSD: add supports for CB_GETATTR callback
- remove WARN_ON_ONCE from encode_bitmap4
- replace decode_bitmap4 with xdr_stream_decode_uint32_array
- replace xdr_inline_decode and xdr_decode_hyper in decode_cb_getattr
with xdr_stream_decode_u64. Also remove the un-needed likely().
- modify signature of encode_cb_getattr4args to take pointer to
nfs4_cb_fattr
- replace decode_attr_length with xdr_stream_decode_u32
- rename decode_cb_getattr to decode_cb_fattr4
- fold the initialization of cb_cinfo and cb_fsize into decode_cb_fattr4
- rename ncf_cb_cinfo to ncf_cb_change to avoid confusion of cindo usage
in fs/nfsd/nfs4xdr.c
- correct NFS4_dec_cb_getattr_sz and update size description
[PATCH 4/4] NFSD: handle GETATTR conflict with write delegation
- change nfs4_handle_wrdeleg_conflict returns __be32 to fix test robot
- change ncf_cb_cinfo to ncf_cb_change to avoid confusion of cindo usage
in fs/nfsd/nfs4xdr.c
Changes since v2:
[PATCH 2/4] NFSD: enable support for write delegation
- rename 'deleg' to 'dl_type' in nfs4_set_delegation
- remove 'wdeleg' in nfs4_open_delegation
- drop [PATCH 3/4] NFSD: add supports for CB_GETATTR callback
and [PATCH 4/4] NFSD: handle GETATTR conflict with write delegation
for futher clarification of the benefits of using CB_GETATTR
for handling GETATTR from the 2nd client

Pretty straightforward. Not as useful (IMO) without CB_GETATTR, since
even a stray 'ls -l' in the parent directory will cause the delegation
to be recalled, but it's a reasonable first step.

Oh I forgot to leave to code to recall the write delegation in when
there is GETATTR. Will fix in v4.
Yes, let just run with this simple code for awhile to make sure nothing
break then we can add the CB_GETATTR later it it's needed.
