While the use of READDIRPLUS is significantly more efficient than
READDIR followed by many LOOKUP calls, it is still less efficient
than just READDIR if the attributes are not required.
This patch tracks when lookups are attempted on the directory,
and uses that information to selectively disable READDIRPLUS
on that directory.
The first 'readdir' call is always served using READDIRPLUS.
Subsequent calls only use READDIRPLUS if there was a successful
lookup or revalidation on a child in the mean time.
Credit for the original idea should go to Neil Brown. See:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-nfs/msg19996.html
However, the implementation in this patch differs from Neil's
in that it focuses on tracking lookups rather than calls to
stat().

No attributes are supposed to change during a COMMIT call, so there
is no need to request post-op attributes.

Get rid of the post-op GETATTR on the directory in order to reduce

The cost is that if we later need to stat() the directory, then we

Now that NFSv2 and NFSv3 have simulated change attributes,
instead of using all three of mtime, ctime and change attribute to
manage data cache consistency, we can simplify the code to just use
the change attribute.

If the inode is being initialised, there is no point in
setting flags such as NFS_INO_INVALID_ACCESS,
NFS_INO_INVALID_ACL or NFS_INO_INVALID_DATA since there are
no cached access calls, acls or data caches to invalidate.
Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
In order to retrieve cache consistency attributes before
anyone else has a chance to change the inode, we need to
put the GETATTR op _before_ the DELEGRETURN op.
We can then use that as part of a 'nfs_post_op_update_inode_force_wcc()'
call, to ensure that we update the attributes without clearing our
cached data.

It is COMMIT that is handled the most differently between

everything either path needs to know about the commit state.
We could use void to hide some of the layout driver stuff, but
Trond suggests pulling it out to ensure type checking, given the
huge changes being made, and the fact that it doesn't interfere
with other drivers.

Decouple nfs_pgio_header and nfs_write_data, and have (possibly
multiple) nfs_write_datas each take a refcount on nfs_pgio_header.
For the moment keeps nfs_write_header as a way to preallocate a single
nfs_write_data with the nfs_pgio_header. The code doesn't need this,
and would be prettier without, but given the amount of churn I am
already introducing I didn't want to play with tuning new mempools.
This also fixes bug in pnfs_ld_handle_write_error. In the case of
desc->pg_bsize < PAGE_CACHE_SIZE, the pages list was empty, causing
replay attempt to do nothing.

In order to avoid duplicating all the data in nfs_read_data whenever we
split it up into multiple RPC calls (either due to a short read result
or due to rsize < PAGE_SIZE), we split out the bits that are the same
per RPC call into a separate "header" structure.
The goal this patch moves towards is to have a single header
refcounted by several rpc_data structures. Thus, want to always refer
from rpc_data to the header, and not the other way. This patch comes
close to that ideal, but the directio code currently needs some
special casing, isolated in the nfs_direct_[read_write]hdr_release()
functions. This will be dealt with in a future patch.
