* mount.glusterfs: make fcache-keep-open option take a valuePhilip Spencer2019-08-161-2/+2
| | | | | | Fixes: bz#1158130 Change-Id: Ifdeaed7c9fbe85f7ce421f7c89cbe7265e45f77c Signed-off-by: Amar Tumballi <amarts@redhat.com>
* mount/fuse: expose auto-invalidation as a mount optionRaghavendra Gowdappa2019-02-021-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Auto invalidation is necessary when same (meta)data is shared/access across multiple mounts. However, if (meta)data is not shared, all relevant I/O goes through the cache of single mount and hence is coherent with (meta)data on bricks always. So, fuse-auto-invalidation can be disabled for this case which gives a huge performance boost for workloads that write data and then immediately read the data they just wrote. From glusterfs --help, <snip> --auto-invalidation[=BOOL] controls whether fuse-kernel can auto-invalidate attribute, dentry and page-cache. Disable this only if same files/directories are not accessed across two different mounts concurrently [default: "on"] </snip> Details on how disabling auto-invalidation helped to reduce pgbench init times can be found at [1]. Time taken for pgbench init of scale 8000 was 8340s. That will be an improvement of 86% (59280s vs 8340s) with auto-invalidations turned off along with other optimizations. Just disabling auto-invalidation contributed 56% improvement by reducing the total time taken by 33260s.

* fuse: add support for kernel writeback cacheCsaba Henk2018-05-041-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - Added kernel-writeback-cache command line and xlator option for requesting utilisation of the writeback cache of the kernel in FUSE_INIT (see [1]). - Added attr-times-granularity command line and xlator option via which granularity of the {a,m,c}time in stat (attr) data that we support can be indicated to kernel. This is a means to avoid divergence of the attr times between kernel and userspace that could occur with writeback-cache, while still maintaining maximum time precision the FUSE server is capable of (see [2]). - Handling FATTR_CTIME flag in FUSE_SETATTR that indicates presence of ctime in setattr payload. Currently we cannot associate arbitrary ctimes to files on backend, so we just touch them to update their ctimes to current time. Having ctimes in setattr payload is also a side effect of writeback cache (see [3] and [4]).

* client: make fuse direct I/O strategies explicitCsaba Henk2018-03-221-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | So far the --direct-io-mode option has been presented as of being Boolean valued. That is however not exact, as a third behavior is chosen if the option is not specified. We accept now the "auto" value as an explicit choice for the default heuristics, and indicate in the descriptions of the option (which occur in commandline help and in the gluterfs / mount.glusterfs man pages) that auto is the default. The default heuristics was briefly described in the commandline help. We are getting rid of that, because: - it's not the right place to provide such details; - there is no guarantee of keeping the current heuristics so it might go out of sync with reality; - that is already the case to some degree, because the description did not take into account that the default heuristics varies between platforms (on Mac, it's just "off"), and that xlators can also prescribe direct I/O for the file of their choice (see change I3fe3312cd96baa4eecfe1247ab7255b4f455f049).

* glusterfsd: allow subdir mountAmar Tumballi2017-08-041-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Changes: 1. Take subdir mount option in client (mount.gluster / glusterfsd) 2. Pass the subdir mount to server-handshake (from client-handshake) 3. Handle subdir-mount dir's lookup in server-first-lookup and handle all fops resolution accordingly with proper gfid of subdir 4. Change the auth/addr module to handle the multiple subdir entries in option, and valid parsing. How to use the feature: `# mount -t glusterfs $hostname:/$volname/$subdir /$mount_point` Or `# mount -t glusterfs $hostname:/$volname -osubdir_mount=$subdir /$mount_point` Option can be set like: `# gluster volume set <volname> auth.allow "/subdir1(192.168.1.*),/(192.168.10.*),/subdir2(192.168.8.*)"` Updates #175 Change-Id: I7ea57f76ddbe6c3862cfe02e13f89e8a39719e11 Signed-off-by: Amar Tumballi <amarts@redhat.com> Reviewed-on: https://review.gluster.org/17141 Smoke: Gluster Build System <jenkins@build.gluster.org> Reviewed-by: Shyamsundar Ranganathan <srangana@redhat.com> CentOS-regression: Gluster Build System <jenkins@build.gluster.org>
