The write_pageio_init method is just a very convoluted way to grab the
right nfs_pageio_ops vector.  The vector to chose is not a choice of

done inside nfs_pageio_init_write based on the presence of a layout

to MDS I/O on a pNFS-capable volume.

Jeff Layton d529ef83c3 NFS: fix the handling of NFS_INO_INVALID_DATA flag in nfs_revalidate_mapping
There is a possible race in how the nfs_invalidate_mapping function is
handled.  Currently, we go and invalidate the pages in the file and then
clear NFS_INO_INVALID_DATA.

The problem is that it's possible for a stale page to creep into the
mapping after the page was invalidated (i.e., via readahead). If another
writer comes along and sets the flag after that happens but before
invalidate_inode_pages2 returns then we could clear the flag
without the cache having been properly invalidated.

So, we must clear the flag first and then invalidate the pages. Doing
this however, opens another race:

It's possible to have two concurrent read() calls that end up in
nfs_revalidate_mapping at the same time. The first one clears the
NFS_INO_INVALID_DATA flag and then goes to call nfs_invalidate_mapping.

Just before calling that though, the other task races in, checks the
flag and finds it cleared. At that point, it trusts that the mapping is
good and gets the lock on the page, allowing the read() to be satisfied
from the cache even though the data is no longer valid.

These effects are easily manifested by running diotest3 from the LTP
test suite on NFS. That program does a series of DIO writes and buffered
reads. The operations are serialized and page-aligned but the existing
code fails the test since it occasionally allows a read to come out of
the cache incorrectly. While mixing direct and buffered I/O isn't
recommended, I believe it's possible to hit this in other ways that just
use buffered I/O, though that situation is much harder to reproduce.

The problem is that the checking/clearing of that flag and the
invalidation of the mapping really need to be atomic. Fix this by
serializing concurrent invalidations with a bitlock.

At the same time, we also need to allow other places that check
NFS_INO_INVALID_DATA to check whether we might be in the middle of
invalidating the file, so fix up a couple of places that do that
to look for the new NFS_INO_INVALIDATING flag.

Doing this requires us to be careful not to set the bitlock
unnecessarily, so this code only does that if it believes it will
be doing an invalidation.

Scott Mayhew 263b4509ec nfs: always make sure page is up-to-date before extending a write to cover the entire page
We should always make sure the cached page is up-to-date when we're
determining whether we can extend a write to cover the full page -- even
if we've received a write delegation from the server.

Commit c7559663 added logic to skip this check if we have a write
delegation, which can lead to data corruption such as the following
scenario if client B receives a write delegation from the NFS server:

Client A:
    # echo 123456789 > /mnt/file

Client B:
    # echo abcdefghi >> /mnt/file
    # cat /mnt/file
    0�D0�abcdefghi

Just because we hold a write delegation doesn't mean that we've read in
the entire page contents.

NeilBrown ef1820f9be NFSv4: Don't try to recover NFSv4 locks when they are lost.
When an NFSv4 client loses contact with the server it can lose any
locks that it holds.

Currently when it reconnects to the server it simply tries to reclaim
those locks.  This might succeed even though some other client has
held and released a lock in the mean time.  So the first client might
think the file is unchanged, but it isn't.  This isn't good.

If, when recovery happens, the locks cannot be claimed because some
other client still holds the lock, then we get a message in the kernel
logs, but the client can still write.  So two clients can both think
they have a lock and can both write at the same time.  This is equally
not good.

There was a patch a while ago
  http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.nfs/41917

which tried to address some of this, but it didn't seem to go
anywhere.  That patch would also send a signal to the process.  That
might be useful but for now this patch just causes writes to fail.

For NFSv4 (unlike v2/v3) there is a strong link between the lock and
the write request so we can fairly easily fail any IO of the lock is
gone.  While some applications might not expect this, it is still
safer than allowing the write to succeed.

Because this is a fairly big change in behaviour a module parameter,
"recover_locks", is introduced which defaults to true (the current
behaviour) but can be set to "false" to tell the client not to try to
recover things that were lost.

Andy Adamson dc24826bfc NFS avoid expired credential keys for buffered writes
We must avoid buffering a WRITE that is using a credential key (e.g. a GSS
context key) that is about to expire or has expired.  We currently will
paint ourselves into a corner by returning success to the applciation
for such a buffered WRITE, only to discover that we do not have permission when
we attempt to flush the WRITE (and potentially associated COMMIT) to disk.

Use the RPC layer credential key timeout and expire routines which use a
a watermark, gss_key_expire_timeo. We test the key in nfs_file_write.

If a WRITE is using a credential with a key that will expire within
watermark seconds, flush the inode in nfs_write_end and send only
NFS_FILE_SYNC WRITEs by adding nfs_ctx_key_to_expire to nfs_need_sync_write.
Note that this results in single page NFS_FILE_SYNC WRITEs.

nfs_migrate_page() calls nfs_fscache_release_page() which doesn't actually wait
- even if __GFP_WAIT is set.  The reason that doesn't wait is that
fscache_maybe_release_page() might deadlock the allocator as the work threads
writing to the cache may all end up sleeping on memory allocation.

However, I wonder if that is actually a problem.  There are a number of things
I can do to deal with this:

 (1) Make nfs_migrate_page() wait.

 (2) Make fscache_maybe_release_page() honour the __GFP_WAIT flag.

 (3) Set a timeout around the wait.

 (4) Make nfs_migrate_page() return an error if the page is still busy.

For the moment, I'll select (2) and (4).

Trond Myklebust ada8e20d04 NFS: Don't use SetPageError in the NFS writeback code
The writeback code is already capable of passing errors back to user space
by means of the open_context->error. In the case of ENOSPC, Neil Brown
is reporting seeing 2 errors being returned.

Neil writes:

"e.g. if /mnt2/ if an nfs mounted filesystem that has no space then

strace dd if=/dev/zero conv=fsync >> /mnt2/afile count=1

reported Input/output error and the relevant parts of the strace output are:

write(1, "\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0"..., 512) = 512
fsync(1)                                = -1 EIO (Input/output error)
close(1)                                = -1 ENOSPC (No space left on device)"

Neil then shows that the duplication of error messages appears to be due to
the use of the PageError() mechanism, which causes filemap_fdatawait_range
to return the extra EIO. The regression was introduced by
commit 7b281ee026 (NFS: fsync() must exit
with an error if page writeback failed).

Fix this by removing the call to SetPageError(), and just relying on
open_context->error reporting the ENOSPC back to fsync().

Jeff Layton 81d9bce530 nfs: don't extend writes to cover entire page if pagecache is invalid
Jian reported that the following sequence would leave "testfile" with
corrupt data:

    # mount localhost:/export /mnt/nfs/ -o vers=3
    # echo abc > /mnt/nfs/testfile; echo def >> /export/testfile; echo ghi >> /mnt/nfs/testfile
    # cat -v /export/testfile
    abc
    ^@^@^@^@ghi

While there's no locking involved here, the operations are serialized,
so CTO should prevent corruption.

The first write to the file is fine and writes 4 bytes. The file is then
extended on the server. When it's reopened a GETATTR is issued and the
size change is noticed. This causes NFS_INO_INVALID_DATA to be set on
the file. Because the file is opened for write only,
nfs_want_read_modify_write() returns 0 to nfs_write_begin().
nfs_updatepage then calls nfs_write_pageuptodate() to see if it should
extend the nfs_page to cover the whole page. NFS_INO_INVALID_DATA is
still set on the file at that point, but that flag is ignored and
nfs_pageuptodate erroneously extends the write to cover the whole page,
with the write done on the server side filled in with zeroes.

This patch just has that function check for NFS_INO_INVALID_DATA in
addition to NFS_INO_REVAL_PAGECACHE. This fixes the bug, but looking
over the code, I wonder if we might have a similar bug in
nfs_revalidate_size(). The difference between those two flags is very
subtle, so it seems like we ought to be checking for
NFS_INO_INVALID_DATA in most of the places that we look for
NFS_INO_REVAL_PAGECACHE.

I believe this is regression introduced by commit 8d197a568. The code
did check for NFS_INO_INVALID_DATA prior to that patch.

Yanchuan Nian 4c10021008 nfs: Fix wrong slab cache in nfs_commit_mempool
The slab cache in nfs_commit_mempool is wrong, and I think it is just a slip.
I tested it on a x86-32 machine, the size of nfs_write_header is 544, and
the size of nfs_commit_data is 408, so it works fine. It is also true that
sizeof(struct nfs_write_header) > sizeof(struct nfs_commit_data) on other
platforms in my opinoin. Just fix it.

Trond Myklebust 05990d1bf2 NFS: Fix fdatasync/fsync() when confronted with a server reboot
If the server reboots before it can commit the unstable writes to disk,
then nfs_commit_release_pages() will detect this when it compares the
verifier returned by COMMIT to the one returned by WRITE. When this
happens, the client needs to resend those writes in order to guarantee
that they make it to stable storage.

This patch adds a signalling mechanism to notify fsync() that it
needs to retry all writes before it can exit.

Mel Gorman 192e501b04 nfs: prevent page allocator recursions with swap over NFS.
GFP_NOFS is _more_ permissive than GFP_NOIO in that it will initiate IO,
just not of any filesystem data.

The problem is that previously NOFS was correct because that avoids
recursion into the NFS code.  With swap-over-NFS, it is no longer correct
as swap IO can lead to this recursion.

Mel Gorman 29418aa4bd nfs: disable data cache revalidation for swapfiles
The VM does not like PG_private set on PG_swapcache pages.  As suggested
by Trond in http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/8/25/348, this patch disables NFS
data cache revalidation on swap files.  as it does not make sense to have
other clients change the file while it is being used as swap.  This avoids
setting PG_private on swap pages, since there ought to be no further races
with invalidate_inode_pages2() to deal with.

Since we cannot set PG_private we cannot use page->private which is
already used by PG_swapcache pages to store the nfs_page.  Thus augment
the new nfs_page_find_request logic.

Trond Myklebust 3aff4ebb95 NFS: Prevent a deadlock in the new writeback code
We have to unlock the nfs_page before we call nfs_end_page_writeback
to avoid races with functions that expect the page to be unlocked
when PG_locked and PG_writeback are not set.
The problem is that nfs_unlock_request also releases the nfs_page,
causing a deadlock if the release of the nfs_open_context
triggers an iput() while the PG_writeback flag is still set...

The solution is to separate the unlocking and release of the nfs_page,
so that we can do the former before nfs_end_page_writeback and the
latter after.

Fred Isaman cd841605f7 NFS: create common nfs_pgio_header for both read and write
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.

Trond Myklebust 8dd3775889 NFSv4.1: Clean ups and bugfixes for the pNFS read/writeback/commit code
Move more pnfs-isms out of the generic commit code.

Bugfixes:

- filelayout_scan_commit_lists doesn't need to get/put the lseg.
  In fact since it is run under the inode->i_lock, the lseg_put()
  can deadlock.

- Ensure that we distinguish between what needs to be done for
  commit-to-data server and what needs to be done for commit-to-MDS
  using the new flag PG_COMMIT_TO_DS. Otherwise we may end up calling
  put_lseg() on a bucket for a struct nfs_page that got written
  through the MDS.

- Fix a case where we were using list_del() on an nfs_page->wb_list
  instead of list_del_init().

- filelayout_initiate_commit needs to call filelayout_commit_release
  on error instead of the mds_ops->rpc_release(). Otherwise it won't
  clear the commit lock.

Cleanups:

- Let the files layout manage the commit lists for the pNFS case.
  Don't expose stuff like pnfs_choose_commit_list, and the fact
  that the commit buckets hold references to the layout segment
  in common code.

- Cast out the put_lseg() calls for the struct nfs_read/write_data->lseg
  into the pNFS layer from whence they came.

- Let the pNFS layer manage the NFS_INO_PNFS_COMMIT bit.

Mel Gorman a6bc32b899 mm: compaction: introduce sync-light migration for use by compaction
This patch adds a lightweight sync migrate operation MIGRATE_SYNC_LIGHT
mode that avoids writing back pages to backing storage.  Async compaction
maps to MIGRATE_ASYNC while sync compaction maps to MIGRATE_SYNC_LIGHT.
For other migrate_pages users such as memory hotplug, MIGRATE_SYNC is
used.

This avoids sync compaction stalling for an excessive length of time,
particularly when copying files to a USB stick where there might be a
large number of dirty pages backed by a filesystem that does not support
->writepages.

Mel Gorman b969c4ab9f mm: compaction: determine if dirty pages can be migrated without blocking within ->migratepage
Asynchronous compaction is used when allocating transparent hugepages to
avoid blocking for long periods of time.  Due to reports of stalling,
there was a debate on disabling synchronous compaction but this severely
impacted allocation success rates.  Part of the reason was that many dirty
pages are skipped in asynchronous compaction by the following check;

	if (PageDirty(page) && !sync &&
		mapping->a_ops->migratepage != migrate_page)
			rc = -EBUSY;

This skips over all mapping aops using buffer_migrate_page() even though
it is possible to migrate some of these pages without blocking.  This
patch updates the ->migratepage callback with a "sync" parameter.  It is
the responsibility of the callback to fail gracefully if migration would
block.

Also, while we're at it, get rid of the completely bogus unlock/relock
semantics that were present in nfs_writeback_release_full(). It is
not only unnecessary, but actually dangerous to release the write lock
just in order to take it again in nfs_page_async_flush(). Better just

Jeff Layton 2da9565235 nfs: don't try to migrate pages with active requests
nfs_find_and_lock_request will take a reference to the nfs_page and
will then put it if the req is already locked. It's possible though
that the reference will be the last one. That put then can kick off
a whole series of reference puts:

nfs_page
   nfs_open_context
      dentry
          inode

If the inode ends up being deleted, then the VFS will call
truncate_inode_pages. That function will try to take the page lock, but
it was already locked when migrate_page was called. The code
deadlocks.

Fix this by simply refusing the migration request if PagePrivate is
already set, indicating that the page is already associated with an
active read or write request.

We've had a customer test a backported version of this patch and
the preliminary results seem good.

Jeff Layton 3236c3e1ad nfs: don't redirty inode when ncommit == 0 in nfs_commit_unstable_pages
commit 420e3646 allowed the kernel to reduce the number of unnecessary
commit calls by skipping the commit when there are a large number of
outstanding pages.

However, the current test in nfs_commit_unstable_pages does not handle
the edge condition properly. When ncommit == 0, then that means that the
kernel doesn't need to do anything more for the inode. The current test
though in the WB_SYNC_NONE case will return true, and the inode will end
up being marked dirty. Once that happens the inode will never be clean
until there's a WB_SYNC_ALL flush.

Fix this by immediately returning from nfs_commit_unstable_pages when
ncommit == 0.

Mike noticed this problem initially in RHEL5 (2.6.18-based kernel) which
has a backported version of 420e3646. The inode cache there was growing
very large. The inode cache was unable to be shrunk since the inodes
were all marked dirty. Calling sync() would essentially "fix" the
problem -- the WB_SYNC_ALL flush would result in the inodes all being
marked clean.

What I'm not clear on is how big a problem this is in mainline kernels
as the writeback code there is very different. Either way, it seems
incorrect to re-mark the inode dirty in this case.

missing our marking the inode for COMMIT in 'do_writepages()' call.

Reverting this patch, fixes a performance regression in which the inode
would continuously get queued to the dirty list, causing the writeback
code to unnecessarily try to send a COMMIT.

Dave Chinner 0d88f6e804 nfs: don't call __mark_inode_dirty while holding i_lock
nfs_scan_commit() is called with the inode->i_lock held, but it then
calls __mark_inode_dirty() while still holding the lock. This causes
a deadlock.

Push the inode->i_lock into nfs_scan_commit() so it can protect only
the parts of the code it needs to and can be dropped before the call
to __mark_inode_dirty() to avoid the deadlock.

Trond Myklebust 4d65c520fb NFS: Fix a hang in the writeback path
Now that the inode scalability patches have been merged, it is no longer
safe to call igrab() under the inode->i_lock.
Now that we no longer call nfs_clear_request() until the nfs_page is
being freed, we know that we are always holding a reference to the
nfs_open_context, which again holds a reference to the path, and so
the inode cannot be freed until the last nfs_page has been removed
from the radix tree and freed.

We can therefore skip the igrab()/iput() altogether.

Fred Isaman a861a1e1c3 NFSv4.1: add generic layer hooks for pnfs COMMIT
We create three major hooks for the pnfs code.

pnfs_mark_request_commit() is called during writeback_done from
nfs_mark_request_commit, which gives the driver an opportunity to
claim it wants control over commiting a particular req.

pnfs_choose_commit_list() is called from nfs_scan_list
to choose which list a given req should be added to, based on
where we intend to send it for COMMIT.  It is up to the driver
to have preallocated list headers for each destination it may need.

pnfs_commit_list() is how the driver actually takes control, it is
used instead of nfs_commit_list().

In order to pass information between the above functions, we create
a union in nfs_page to hold a lseg (which is possible because the req is
not on any list while in transition), and add some flags to indicate
if we need to use the pnfs code.

It also causes nfs_file_fsync() to incorrectly report the file as

Jeff Layton d2224e7afb nfs: close NFSv4 COMMIT vs. CLOSE race
I've been adding in more artificial delays in the NFSv4 commit and close
codepaths to uncover races. The kernel I'm testing has the patch to
close the race in __rpc_wait_for_completion_task that's in Trond's
cthon2011 branch. The reproducer I've been using does this in a loop:

	mkdir("DIR");
	fd = open("DIR/FILE", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_EXCL, 0644);
	write(fd, "abcdefg", 7);
	close(fd);
	unlink("DIR/FILE");
	rmdir("DIR");

The above reproducer shouldn't result in any silly-renaming. However,
when I add a "msleep(100)" just after the nfs_commit_clear_lock call in
nfs_commit_release, I can almost always force one to occur. If I can
force it to occur with that, then it can happen without that delay
given the right timing.

nfs_commit_inode waits for the NFS_INO_COMMIT bit to clear when called
with FLUSH_SYNC set. nfs_commit_rpcsetup on the other hand does not wait
for the task to complete before putting its reference to it, so the last
reference get put in rpc_release task and gets queued to a workqueue.

In this situation, the last open context reference may be put by the
COMMIT release instead of the close() syscall. The close() syscall
returns too quickly and the unlink runs while the d_count is still
high since the COMMIT release hasn't put its dentry reference yet.

Fix this by having rpc_commit_rpcsetup wait for the RPC call to complete
before putting the task reference when FLUSH_SYNC is set. With this, the
last reference is put by the process that's initiating the FLUSH_SYNC
commit and the race is closed.

Trond Myklebust 2df485a774 nfs: remove extraneous and problematic calls to nfs_clear_request
When a nfs_page is freed, nfs_free_request is called which also calls
nfs_clear_request to clean out the lock and open contexts and free the
pagecache page.

However, a couple of places in the nfs code call nfs_clear_request
themselves. What happens here if the refcount on the request is still high?
We'll be releasing contexts and freeing pointers while the request is
possibly still in use.

Remove those bare calls to nfs_clear_context. That should only be done when
the request is being freed.

Note that when doing this, we need to watch out for tests of req->wb_page.
Previously, nfs_set_page_tag_locked() and nfs_clear_page_tag_locked()
would check the value of req->wb_page to figure out if the page is mapped
into the nfsi->nfs_page_tree. We now indicate the page is mapped using
the new bit PG_MAPPED in req->wb_flags .

Wu Fengguang 1b430beee5 writeback: remove nonblocking/encountered_congestion references
This removes more dead code that was somehow missed by commit 0d99519efe
(writeback: remove unused nonblocking and congestion checks).  There are
no behavior change except for the removal of two entries from one of the
ext4 tracing interface.

The nonblocking checks in ->writepages are no longer used because the
flusher now prefer to block on get_request_wait() than to skip inodes on
IO congestion.  The latter will lead to more seeky IO.

The nonblocking checks in ->writepage are no longer used because it's
redundant with the WB_SYNC_NONE check.

We no long set ->nonblocking in VM page out and page migration, because
a) it's effectively redundant with WB_SYNC_NONE in current code
b) it's old semantic of "Don't get stuck on request queues" is mis-behavior:
   that would skip some dirty inodes on congestion and page out others, which
   is unfair in terms of LRU age.

Neil Brown reports that he is seeing the BUG_ON(ret == 0) trigger in
nfs_page_async_flush. According to the trace in
     https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=599628
the problem appears to be due to nfs_wb_page() not waiting for the
PG_writeback flag to clear.

There is a ditto problem in nfs_wb_page_cancel()

Trond Myklebust 71d0a6112a NFS: Fix an unstable write data integrity race
Commit 2c61be0a94 (NFS: Ensure that the WRITE
and COMMIT RPC calls are always uninterruptible) exposed a race on file
close. In order to ensure correct close-to-open behaviour, we want to wait
for all outstanding background commit operations to complete.

This patch adds an inode flag that indicates if a commit operation is under
way, and provides a mechanism to allow ->write_inode() to wait for its
completion if this is a data integrity flush.

Christoph Hellwig 6b2f3d1f76 vfs: Implement proper O_SYNC semantics
While Linux provided an O_SYNC flag basically since day 1, it took until
Linux 2.4.0-test12pre2 to actually get it implemented for filesystems,
since that day we had generic_osync_around with only minor changes and the
great "For now, when the user asks for O_SYNC, we'll actually give
O_DSYNC" comment.  This patch intends to actually give us real O_SYNC
semantics in addition to the O_DSYNC semantics.  After Jan's O_SYNC
patches which are required before this patch it's actually surprisingly
simple, we just need to figure out when to set the datasync flag to
vfs_fsync_range and when not.

This patch renames the existing O_SYNC flag to O_DSYNC while keeping it's
numerical value to keep binary compatibility, and adds a new real O_SYNC
flag.  To guarantee backwards compatiblity it is defined as expanding to
both the O_DSYNC and the new additional binary flag (__O_SYNC) to make
sure we are backwards-compatible when compiled against the new headers.

This also means that all places that don't care about the differences can
just check O_DSYNC and get the right behaviour for O_SYNC, too - only
places that actuall care need to check __O_SYNC in addition.  Drivers and
network filesystems have been updated in a fail safe way to always do the
full sync magic if O_DSYNC is set.  The few places setting O_SYNC for
lower layers are kept that way for now to stay failsafe.

We enforce that O_DSYNC is set when __O_SYNC is set early in the open path
to make sure we always get these sane options.

Note that parisc really screwed up their headers as they already define a
O_DSYNC that has always been a no-op.  We try to repair it by using it for
the new O_DSYNC and redefinining O_SYNC to send both the traditional
O_SYNC numerical value _and_ the O_DSYNC one.

nfs_writeback_done and nfs_readpage_retry call nfs4_restart_rpc outside the

state during session reset.

Fix this by moving the call to nfs41_sequence_free_slot from the error
path of nfs41_sequence_done into nfs4_restart_rpc, and by removing the test
for NFS4CLNT_SESSION_SETUP.

Trond Myklebust 1ae88b2e44 NFS: Fix an O_DIRECT Oops...
We can't call nfs_readdata_release()/nfs_writedata_release() without
first initialising and referencing args.context. Doing so inside
nfs_direct_read_schedule_segment()/nfs_direct_write_schedule_segment()
causes an Oops.

We should rather be calling nfs_readdata_free()/nfs_writedata_free() in
those cases.

Looking at the O_DIRECT code, the "struct nfs_direct_req" is already
referencing the nfs_open_context for us. Since the readdata and writedata
structures carry a reference to that, we can simplify things by getting rid
of the extra nfs_open_context references, so that we can replace all
instances of nfs_readdata_release()/nfs_writedata_release().

Trond Myklebust 72cb77f4a5 NFS: Throttle page dirtying while we're flushing to disk
The following patch is a combination of a patch by myself and Peter
Staubach.

Trond: If we allow other processes to dirty pages while a process is doing
a consistency sync to disk, we can end up never making progress.

Peter: Attached is a patch which addresses a continuing problem with
the NFS client generating out of order WRITE requests.  While
this is compliant with all of the current protocol
specifications, there are servers in the market which can not
handle out of order WRITE requests very well.  Also, this may
lead to sub-optimal block allocations in the underlying file
system on the server.  This may cause the read throughputs to
be reduced when reading the file from the server.

Peter: There has been a lot of work recently done to address out of
order issues on a systemic level.  However, the NFS client is
still susceptible to the problem.  Out of order WRITE
requests can occur when pdflush is in the middle of writing
out pages while the process dirtying the pages calls
generic_file_buffered_write which calls
generic_perform_write which calls
balance_dirty_pages_rate_limited which ends up calling
writeback_inodes which ends up calling back into the NFS
client to writes out dirty pages for the same file that
pdflush happens to be working with.
