2015-12-28pNFS/flexfiles: Support server-supplied layoutstats sampling periodTrond Myklebust
Some servers want to be able to control the frequency with which clients report layoutstats, for instance, in order to monitor QoS for a particular file or set of file. In order to support this, the flexfiles layout allows the server to pass this info as a hint in the layout payload. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@primarydata.com>
2015-11-02pNFS/flexfiles: Add support for FF_FLAGS_NO_IO_THRU_MDSTrond Myklebust
For loosely coupled pNFS/flexfiles systems, there is often no advantage at all in going through the MDS for I/O, since the MDS is subject to the same limitations as all other clients when talking to DSes. If a DS is unresponsive, I/O through the MDS will fail. For such systems, the only scalable solution is to have the pNFS clients retry doing pNFS, and so the protocol now provides a flag that allows the pNFS server to signal this. If LAYOUTGET returns FF_FLAGS_NO_IO_THRU_MDS, then we should assume that the MDS wants the client to retry using these devices, even if they were previously marked as being unavailable. To do so, we add a helper, ff_layout_mark_devices_valid() that will be called from layoutget. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@primarydata.com>
2015-08-25NFSv4.1/flexfile: Ensure uniqueness of mirrors across layout segmentsTrond Myklebust
Keep the full list of mirrors in the struct nfs4_ff_layout_mirror so that they can be shared among the layout segments that use them. Also ensure that we send out only one copy of the layoutstats per mirror. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@primarydata.com>

When we start sharing mirrors between several lsegs, we won't be able to keep it. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@primarydata.com>
2015-08-25NFSv4.1/flexfiles: Add refcounting to struct nfs4_ff_layout_mirrorTrond Myklebust
We do want to share mirrors between layout segments, so add a refcount to enable that. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@primarydata.com>
2015-06-26pNFS/flexfiles: Turn off layoutcommit for servers that don't need itTrond Myklebust
This patch ensures that we record the value of 'ffl_flags' from the layout, and then checks for the presence of the FF_FLAGS_NO_LAYOUTCOMMIT flag before deciding whether or not to call pnfs_set_layoutcommit(). The effect is that servers now can decide whether or not they want the client to call layoutcommit before returning a writeable layout.
