Reference counting in pnfs: | ||
========================== | ||
|
||
The are several inter-related caches. We have layouts which can | ||
reference multiple devices, each of which can reference multiple data servers. | ||
Each data server can be referenced by multiple devices. Each device | ||
can be referenced by multiple layouts. To keep all of this straight, | ||
we need to reference count. | ||
|
||
|
||
struct pnfs_layout_hdr | ||
---------------------- | ||
The on-the-wire command LAYOUTGET corresponds to struct | ||
pnfs_layout_segment, usually referred to by the variable name lseg. | ||
Each nfs_inode may hold a pointer to a cache of of these layout | ||
segments in nfsi->layout, of type struct pnfs_layout_hdr. | ||
|
||
We reference the header for the inode pointing to it, across each | ||
outstanding RPC call that references it (LAYOUTGET, LAYOUTRETURN, | ||
LAYOUTCOMMIT), and for each lseg held within. | ||
|
||
Each header is also (when non-empty) put on a list associated with | ||
struct nfs_client (cl_layouts). Being put on this list does not bump | ||
the reference count, as the layout is kept around by the lseg that | ||
keeps it in the list. | ||
|
||
deviceid_cache | ||
-------------- | ||
lsegs reference device ids, which are resolved per nfs_client and | ||
layout driver type. The device ids are held in a RCU cache (struct | ||
nfs4_deviceid_cache). The cache itself is referenced across each | ||
mount. The entries (struct nfs4_deviceid) themselves are held across | ||
the lifetime of each lseg referencing them. | ||
|
||
RCU is used because the deviceid is basically a write once, read many | ||
data structure. The hlist size of 32 buckets needs better | ||
justification, but seems reasonable given that we can have multiple | ||
deviceid's per filesystem, and multiple filesystems per nfs_client. | ||
|
||
The hash code is copied from the nfsd code base. A discussion of | ||
hashing and variations of this algorithm can be found at: | ||
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.c/browse_thread/thread/9522965e2b8d3809 | ||
|
||
data server cache | ||
----------------- | ||
file driver devices refer to data servers, which are kept in a module | ||
level cache. Its reference is held over the lifetime of the deviceid | ||
pointing to it. |
