Hi Trond, Anna Any comments on this series? Do you think it can be included for 5.9? The server side patches are looking pretty good for 5.9. Let me know if there's anything you want me to do/test. Thanks, - Frank On 6/23/20, 3:39 PM, "Frank van der Linden" <fllinden@amazon.com> wrote: v3: * Rebase to v5.8-rc2 v2: * Move nfs4 specific definitions to nfs_fs4.h * Squash some patches together to avoid unused function warnings when bisecting. * Made determining server support a two-step process. First, the extended attribute FATTR is verified to be supported, then the value of the attributed is queried in fsinfo to determine support. * Fixed up Makefile to remove an unneeded extra line. v1: * Client side caching is now included in this patch set. * As per the discussion, user extended attributes are enabled if the client and server support them (e.g. they support 4.2 and advertise the user extended attribute FATTR). There are no longer options to switch them off on either the client or the server. * The code is no longer conditioned on a config option. * The number of patches has been reduced somewhat by merging smaller, related ones. Original combined client/server RFC: https://patchwork.kernel.org/cover/11143565/ In general, these patches were, both server and client, tested as follows: * stress-ng-xattr with 1000 workers * Test all corner cases (XATTR_SIZE_*) * Test all failure cases (no xattr, setxattr with different or invalid flags, etc). * Verify the content of xattrs across several operations. * Use KASAN and KMEMLEAK for a longer mix of testruns to verify that there were no leaks (after unmounting the filesystem). * Interop run against FreeBSD server/client implementation. * Ran xfstests-dev, with no unexpected/new failures as compared to an unpatched kernel. To fully use xfstests-dev, it needed some modifications, as it expects to either use all xattr namespaces, or none. Whereas NFS only suppors the "user." namespace (+ optional ACLs). I will send the changes in seperately. * Test the memory shrinker for the client side cache by running the client inside a 1G KVM VM, filling up the cache by running an agressive multi-threaded xattr workload, and tracing the shrinker when it kicked in. No memory allocation problems were seen.
