nfs-for-3.5-1
cc0a9843 · ·NFS client updates for Linux 3.5 New features include: - Rewrite the O_DIRECT code so that it can share the same coalescing and pNFS functionality as the page cache code. - Allow the server to provide hints as to when we should use pNFS, and when it is more efficient to read and write through the metadata server. - NFS cache consistency updates: - Use the ctime to emulate a change attribute for NFSv2/v3 so that all NFS versions can share the same cache management code. - New cache management code will only look at the change attribute and size attribute when deciding whether or not our cached data is still valid or not. - Don't request NFSv4 post-op attributes on writes in cases such as O_DIRECT, where we don't care about data cache consistency, or when we have a write delegation, and know that our cache is still consistent. - Don't request NFSv4 post-op attributes on operations such as COMMIT, where there are no expected metadata updates. - Don't request NFSv4 directory post-op attributes in cases where the operations themselves already return change attribute updates: i.e. operations such as OPEN, CREATE, REMOVE, LINK and RENAME. - Speed up 'ls' and friends by using READDIR rather than READDIRPLUS if we detect no attempts to lookup filenames. - Improve the code sharing between NFSv2/v3 and v4 mounts - NFSv4.1 state management efficiency improvements - More patches in preparation for NFSv4/v4.1 migration functionality. -
