This enhances NFS (buffered) read performance quite - a bit. Thanks to Steven Johnson <sjohnson@sakuraindustries.com> for helping - with this. - - Updated README (performance section). - - Added simple performance test: nfsTest.c - -Changes since RTEMS-NFS 1.3_pre2: - RPCIOD: - - fix a problem with NFS server clusters (reply comes from an IP address - different from the destination of the request) by relaxing paranoia checks. - -Changes since RTEMS-NFS 1.2: - NFS: - - replaced inet_aton -> inet_pton - - replaced unsigned32 -> uint32_t - - added _KERNEL definition for 4.7 compilation - - silenced compiler warnings (4.7) - - added -Wno-unused-variable in 'proto' -- rpcgen produces a lot of them. - - new locking scheme. The 'in-use' counters cannot be protected by a mutex - because files might be closed when a thread is deleted from a dispatch-disabled - section where mutexes must not be locked. The counters are now protected by - disabling interrupts. - The only critical race-condition I can see ATM is while the NFS is being - unmounted and the mount point is crossed by another thread. It should be the - generic FS code's responsibility to handle that (but AFAIK, it doesn't) -- - it's out of our scope... - - ftruncate didn't work. The functionality is achieved by nfs_sattr() - setting the file size to 0. However, nfs_sattr() always tried to set - all attributes (re-applying the current values to fields we didn't - want to change) which failed (EPERM) if we were not the owner. - Now, we restrict modifications to the requested fields (in case of - ftruncate this is *only* the size), adhering to rfc1094 (which states - that unused fields shall be set to -1). - - lseek(SEEK_END) didn't work. The underlying RTEMS filesystem code - uses an internal file 'size' field to compute the offset whence SEEK_END. - Instead of painfully maintaining 'size' across all system calls, we - just tweak the offset for SEEK_END and leave 'size' unused. - - fix: O_APPEND wasn't honoured. Note that there is no NFS 'append' call - - the client simply uses the currently available idea of the file size - to set the write offset. This obviously is subject to race conditions - if multiple clients are writing the same file. - dirutils: - - replaced read/write calls by stdio; In case of copying to stdout, I - experienced occasional crashes when write(fileno(stdout),...) -- according - to the standard, mixing low-level i/o with stdio might produce undefined - results; there we go... - -Changes since RTEMS-NFS 1.1: - NFS: - - unlink() didnt work. The underlying RTEMS filesystem code evaluates - a '..' path on a non-directory node to find out the file's parent - directory. Workaround to this semantically inelegant RTEMS feature - was implemented. - -Changes since RTEMS-NFS 1.0.beta3: - NFS: - - fixed possible string overrun in nfsMount - - nfs_read_dir() must reset the 'eofreached' flag if it skipped - dirents present in the xdr but not fitting into the user buffer. - - nfsMountsShow() released the wrong lock! - RPCIO: - - cannot delete locked binary semaphore (authlock) -- must unlock - first (authlock was never deleted and hence effectively leaked) - - added ASSERT paranoia around mutex primitives - - Relaxed paranoia check / ASSERTion failure: - paranoia_free() is called more than once on an ext_buf - it must - undo calls to paranoia_refcnt() - hence the 0 == --refcnt check - is too strict. - - Added a DEBUG flag to introduce random packet losses for testing - retransmission. - xdr_mbuf: - - make sure we do a signed comparison - -Changes since rtemsNFS-1.0.beta2: - - moved 'tar' command to the 'config' area; use - predefined 'make-tar' in individual Makefiles - - use INSTALL_CHANGE for headers, not INSTALL_VARIANT (probably doesn't - matter, though) - - use LD not LD_FOR_TARGET (to get absolute path) - - fixed assertion failure print format - - print requestor id if send_event fails - had just experienced this :-( - - hint about fprintf using FP registers is probably PPC specific - - provided implementation for xdrmbuf_getlong_aligned(). i386-rtems - seems to use it. |
