Merge branch 'for-3.20' of git://linux-nfs.org/~bfields/linux

Pull nfsd updates from Bruce Fields:
"The main change is the pNFS block server support from Christoph, which
allows an NFS client connected to shared disk to do block IO to the
shared disk in place of NFS reads and writes. This also requires xfs
patches, which should arrive soon through the xfs tree, barring
unexpected problems. Support for other filesystems is also possible
if there's interest.

Thanks also to Chuck Lever for continuing work to get NFS/RDMA into
shape"

nfsd: pNFS block layout driver

Add a small shim between core nfsd and filesystems to translate the
somewhat cumbersome pNFS data structures and semantics to something
more palatable for Linux filesystems.

Thanks to Rick McNeal for the old prototype pNFS blocklayout server
code, which gave a lot of inspiration to this version even if no
code is left from it.

nfsd: implement pNFS layout recalls

Add support to issue layout recalls to clients. For now we only support
full-file recalls to get a simple and stable implementation. This allows
to embedd a nfsd4_callback structure in the layout_state and thus avoid
any memory allocations under spinlocks during a recall. For normal
use cases that do not intent to share a single file between multiple
clients this implementation is fully sufficient.

To ensure layouts are recalled on local filesystem access each layout
state registers a new FL_LAYOUT lease with the kernel file locking code,
which filesystems that support pNFS exports that require recalls need
to break on conflicting access patterns.

The XDR code is based on the old pNFS server implementation by
Andy Adamson, Benny Halevy, Boaz Harrosh, Dean Hildebrand, Fred Isaman,
Marc Eshel, Mike Sager and Ricardo Labiaga.

La

nfsd: implement pNFS operations

Add support for the GETDEVICEINFO, LAYOUTGET, LAYOUTCOMMIT and
LAYOUTRETURN NFSv4.1 operations, as well as backing code to manage
outstanding layouts and devices.

Layout management is very straight forward, with a nfs4_layout_stateid
structure that extends nfs4_stid to manage layout stateids as the
top-level structure. It is linked into the nfs4_file and nfs4_client
structures like the other stateids, and contains a linked list of
layouts that hang of the stateid. The actual layout operations are
implemented in layout drivers that are not part of this commit, but
will be added later.

The worst part of this commit is the management of the pNFS device IDs,
which suffers from a specification that is not sanely implementable due
to the fact that the device-IDs are global and not bound to an export,
and have a small enough size so that we can't store the fsid portion of
a file handle, and must never be reused. As we still do need perform all
export authentication and validation checks on a device ID passed to
GETDEVICEINFO we are caught between a rock and a hard place. To work
around this issue we add a new hash that maps from a 64-bit integer to a
fsid so that we can look up the export to authenticate against it,
a 32-bit integer as a generation that we can bump when changing the device,
and a currently unused 32-bit integer that could be used in the future
to handle more than a single device per export. Entries in this hash
table are never deleted as we can't reuse the ids anyway, and would have
a severe lifetime problem anyway as Linux export structures are temporary
structures that can go away under load.

Parts of the XDR data, structures and marshaling/unmarshaling code, as
well as many concepts are derived from the old pNFS server implementation
from Andy Adamson, Benny Halevy, Dean Hildebrand, Marc Eshel, Fred Isaman,
Mike Sager, Ricardo Labiaga and many others.
