With direct I/O read, we transfer the data directly from transport layer to
the user data buffer.

Change in v3: add support for kernel AIO

Change in v4:
Refactor common read code to __cifs_readv for direct and non-direct I/O.
Retry on direct I/O failure.

In case of a blocking read we will return -EBUSY to the caller but
read man page doesn't say anything about a possibility to return this
error code. Is it being mapped somehow by VFS or is there another
consideration? The same question applies to the write patch as well.

Thanks Pavel,  Yes this is a bug.

In practice, the retry logic will rarely get hit. If getting hit, normally the server will give us far more credits for resending this whole packet.

How about just retrying forever (instead of trying 3 times) on this resend packet? This will change the code to the same behavior before direct I/O patches. 

e.g.:

        /*
         * Try to resend this wdata, waiting for credits before sending
         * Note: we are attempting to resend the whole wdata not in segments
         */
        do {
                rc = server->ops->wait_mtu_credits(
                        server, wdata->bytes, &wsize, &credits);

                if (rc)
                        break;

                if (wsize < wdata->bytes) {
                        add_credits_and_wake_if(server, credits, 0);
                        msleep(1000);
                }
        } while (wsize < wdata->bytes);

Yes it's a little different.

I don't see any ill effects of doing this, other than we may wait for a little longer on a full credit to send the whole packet. In practice the server always offers a full credit on the first call to wait_mtu_credits(), I am yet to see the while loop actually get looped.

The resend path is rarely getting hit in stress tests on TCP, I estimate maybe less than 0.001% on my test setup, the while loop for waiting credits is ever harder to hit that I never see one.

On RDMA, the resend path is never used.

> I don't see any ill effects of doing this, other than we may wait for a little longer on a full credit to send the whole packet. In practice the server always offers a full credit on the first call to wait_mtu_credits(), I am yet to see the while loop actually get looped.

Ok. Another way to fix this is to break the request into several
smaller ones consuming 1 credit per request - see
cifs_writev_requeue() function that does the same thing for writes.
