091806edd4 [GFS2] filesystem consistency error from do_strip
This patch fixes a GFS2 filesystem consistency error reported from
function do_strip.  The problem was caused by a timing window
that allowed two vfs inodes to be created in memory that point
to the same file.  The problem is fixed by making the vfs's
iget_test, iget_set mechanism check and set a new bit in the
in-core gfs2_inode structure while the vfs inode spin_lock is held.

58e9fee13e [GFS2] Invalidate cache at correct point
GFS2 wasn't invalidating its cache before it called into the lock manager
with a request that could potentially drop a lock.  This was leaving a
window where the lock could be actually be held by another node, but the
file's page cache would still appear valid, causing coherency problems.
This patch moves the cache invalidation to before the lock manager call
when dropping a lock. It also adds the option to the lock_dlm lock
manager to not use conversion mode deadlock avoidance, which, on a
conversion from shared to exclusive, could internally drop the lock, and
then reacquire in. GFS2 now asks lock_dlm to not do this.  Instead, GFS2
manually drops the lock and reacquires it.

77658aad22 [GFS2] Eliminate (almost) duplicate field from gfs2_inode
The blocks counter is almost a duplicate of the i_blocks
field in the VFS inode. The only difference is that i_blocks
can be only 32bits long for 32bit arch without large single file
support. Since GFS2 doesn't handle the non-large single file
case (for 32 bit anyway) this adds a new config dependency on
64BIT || LSF. This has always been the case, however we've never
explicitly said so before.

Even if we do add support for the non-LSF case, we will still
not require this field to be duplicated since we will not be
able to access oversized files anyway.

So the net result of all this is that we shave 8 bytes from a gfs2_inode
and get our config deps correct.

9a0045088d [GFS2] Shrink & rename di_depth
This patch forms a pair with the previous patch which shrunk
di_height. Like that patch di_depth is renamed i_depth and moved
into struct gfs2_inode directly. Also the field goes from 16 bits
to 8 bits since it is also limited to a max value which is rather
small (17 in this case). In addition we also now validate the field
against this maximum value when its read in.

da755fdb41 [GFS2] Remove lm.[ch] and distribute content
The functions in lm.c were just wrappers which were mostly
only used in one other file. By moving the functions to
the files where they are being used, they can be marked
static and also this will usually result in them being inlined
since they are often only used from one point in the code.

A couple of really trivial functions have been inlined by hand
into the function which called them as it makes the code clearer
to do that.

We also gain from one fewer function call in the glock lock and

d0109bfa84 [GFS2] Only do lo_incore_commit once
This patch is performance related.  When we're doing a log flush,
I noticed we were calling buf_lo_incore_commit twice: once for
data bufs and once for metadata bufs.  Since this is the same
function and does the same thing in both cases, there should be
no reason to call it twice.  Since we only need to call it once,
we can also make it faster by removing it from the generic "lops"
code and making it a stand-along static function.

ecc30c7915 [GFS2] Streamline indirect pointer tree height calculation
This patch improves the calculation of the tree height in order to reduce
the number of operations which are carried out on each call to gfs2_block_map.
In the common case, we now make a single comparison, rather than calculating
the required tree height from scratch each time. Also in the case that the
tree does need some extra height, we start from the current height rather from
zero when we work out what the new height ought to be.

In addition the di_height field is moved into the inode proper and reduced
in size to a u8 since the value must be between 0 and GFS2_MAX_META_HEIGHT (10).

6dbd822487 [GFS2] Reduce inode size by moving i_alloc out of line
It is possible to reduce the size of GFS2 inodes by taking the i_alloc
structure out of the gfs2_inode. This patch allocates the i_alloc
structure whenever its needed, and frees it afterward. This decreases
the amount of low memory we use at the expense of requiring a memory
allocation for each page or partial page that we write. A quick test
with postmark shows that the overhead is not measurable and I also note
that OCFS2 use the same approach.

In the future I'd like to solve the problem by shrinking down the size
of the members of the i_alloc structure, but for now, this reduces the
immediate problem of using too much low-memory on x86 and doesn't add
too much overhead.

f91a0d3e24 [GFS2] Remove useless i_cache from inodes
The i_cache was designed to keep references to the indirect blocks
used during block mapping so that they didn't have to be looked

where the i_cache needs to be freed, and this has in the past been
the cause of many bugs.

In addition there was no performance benefit being gained since the
disk blocks in question were cached anyway. So this patch removes

would otherwise have had to add further support for this feature.

This now means that shared writable mappings will be much more

special cases from readpage and readpages, and makes the code

c4f68a130f [GFS2] delay glock demote for a minimum hold time
When a lot of IO, with some distributed mmap IO, is run on a GFS2 filesystem in
a cluster, it will deadlock. The reason is that do_no_page() will repeatedly
call gfs2_sharewrite_nopage(), because each node keeps giving up the glock
too early, and is forced to call unmap_mapping_range(). This bumps the
mapping->truncate_count sequence count, forcing do_no_page() to retry. This
patch institutes a minimum glock hold time a tenth a second.  This insures
that even in heavy contention cases, the node has enough time to get some
useful work done before it gives up the glock.

A second issue is that when gfs2_glock_dq() is called from within a page fault
to demote a lock, and the associated page needs to be written out, it will
try to acqire a lock on it, but it has already been locked at a higher level.
This patch puts makes gfs2_glock_dq() use the work queue as well, to avoid this
issue. This is the same patch as Steve Whitehouse originally proposed to fix
this issue, execpt that gfs2_glock_dq() now grabs a reference to the glock
before it queues up the work on it.

2332c4435b [GFS2] assertion failure after writing to journaled file, umount
This patch passes all my nasty tests that were causing the code to
fail under one circumstance or another.  Here is a complete summary
of all changes from today's git tree, in order of appearance:

1. There are now separate variables for metadata buffer accounting.
2. Variable sd_log_num_hdrs is no longer needed, since the header
   accounting is taken care of by the reserve/refund sequence.
3. Fixed a tiny grammatical problem in a comment.
4. Added a new function "calc_reserved" to calculate the reserved
   log space.  This isn't entirely necessary, but it has two benefits:
   First, it simplifies the gfs2_log_refund function greatly.
   Second, it allows for easier debugging because I could sprinkle the
   code with calls to this function to make sure the accounting is
   proper (by adding asserts and printks) at strategic point of the code.
5. In log_pull_tail there apparently was a kludge to fix up the
   accounting based on a "pull" parameter.  The buffer accounting is
   now done properly, so the kludge was removed.
6. File sync operations were making a call to gfs2_log_flush that
   writes another journal header.  Since that header was unplanned
   for (reserved) by the reserve/refund sequence, the free space had
   to be decremented so that when log_pull_tail gets called, the free
   space is be adjusted properly.  (Did I hear you call that a kludge?
   well, maybe, but a lot more justifiable than the one I removed).
7. In the gfs2_log_shutdown code, it optionally syncs the log by
   specifying the PULL parameter to log_write_header.  I'm not sure
   this is necessary anymore.  It just seems to me there could be
   cases where shutdown is called while there are outstanding log
   buffers.
8. In the (data)buf_lo_before_commit functions, I changed some offset
   values from being calculated on the fly to being constants.	That
   simplified some code and we might as well let the compiler do the
   calculation once rather than redoing those cycles at run time.
9. This version has my rewritten databuf_lo_add function.
   This version is much more like its predecessor, buf_lo_add, which
   makes it easier to understand.  Again, this might not be necessary,
   but it seems as if this one works as well as the previous one,
   maybe even better, so I decided to leave it in.
10. In databuf_lo_before_commit, a previous data corruption problem
   was caused by going off the end of the buffer.  The proper solution
   is to have the proper limit in place, rather than stopping earlier.
   (Thus my previous attempt to fix it is wrong).
   If you don't wrap the buffer, you're stopping too early and that
   causes more log buffer accounting problems.
11. In lops.h there are two new (previously mentioned) constants for
   figuring out the data offset for the journal buffers.
12. There are also two new functions, buf_limit and databuf_limit to
   calculate how many entries will fit in the buffer.
13. In function gfs2_meta_wipe, it needs to distinguish between pinned
   metadata buffers and journaled data buffers for proper journal buffer
   accounting.	It can't use the JDATA gfs2_inode flag because it's
   sometimes passed the "real" inode and sometimes the "metadata
   inode" and the inode flags will be random bits in a metadata
   gfs2_inode.	It needs to base its decision on which was passed in.

c8cdf47937 [GFS2] Recovery for lost unlinked inodes
Under certain circumstances its possible (though rather unlikely) that
inodes which were unlinked by one node while still open on another might
get "lost" in the sense that they don't get deallocated if the node
which held the inode open crashed before it was unlinked.

This patch adds the recovery code which allows automatic deallocation of
the inode if its found during block allocation (the sensible time to
look for such inodes since we are scanning the rgrp's bitmaps anyway at
this time, so it adds no overhead to do this).

Since the inode will have had its i_nlink set to zero, all we need to
trigger recovery is a lookup and an iput(), and the normal deallocation
code takes care of the rest.

bb8d8a6f54 [GFS2] Fix sign problem in quota/statfs and cleanup _host structures
This patch fixes some sign issues which were accidentally introduced
into the quota & statfs code during the endianess annotation process.
Also included is a general clean up which moves all of the _host
structures out of gfs2_ondisk.h (where they should not have been to
start with) and into the places where they are actually used (often only
one place). Also those _host structures which are not required any more
are removed entirely (which is the eventual plan for all of them).

The conversion routines from ondisk.c are also moved into the places
where they are actually used, which for almost every one, was just one
single place, so all those are now static functions. This also cleans up
the end of gfs2_ondisk.h which no longer needs the #ifdef __KERNEL__.

The net result is a reduction of about 100 lines of code, many functions
now marked static plus the bug fixes as mentioned above. For good
measure I ran the code through sparse after making these changes to

2a87ab0806 [GFS2] Quotas non-functional - fix bug
This patch fixes an error in the quota code where a 'struct
gfs2_quota_lvb*' was being passed to gfs2_adjust_quota() instead of a
'struct gfs2_quota_data*'. Also moved 'struct gfs2_quota_lvb' from
fs/gfs2/incore.h to include/linux/gfs2_ondisk.h as per Steve's suggestion.

dbb7cae2a3 [GFS2] Clean up inode number handling
This patch cleans up the inode number handling code. The main difference
is that instead of looking up the inodes using a struct gfs2_inum_host
we now use just the no_addr member of this structure. The tests relating
to no_formal_ino can then be done by the calling code. This has
advantages in that we want to do different things in different code
paths if the no_formal_ino doesn't match. In the NFS patch we want to
return -ESTALE, but in the ->lookup() path, its a bug in the fs if the
no_formal_ino doesn't match and thus we can withdraw in this case.

In order to later fix bz #201012, we need to be able to look up an inode
without knowing no_formal_ino, as the only information that is known to
us is the on-disk location of the inode in question.

This patch will also help us to fix bz #236099 at a later date by
cleaning up a lot of the code in that area.

There are no user visible changes as a result of this patch and there
are no changes to the on-disk format either.

5f8820960c [GFS2] lockdump improvements
The patch below consists of the following changes (in code order):

1. I fixed a minor compiler warning regarding the printing of
   a kernel symbol address.
2. I implemented a suggestion from Dave Teigland that moves
   the debugfs information for gfs2 into a subdirectory so
   we can easily expand our use of debugfs in the future.
   The current code keeps the glock information in:
   /debug/gfs2/<fs>
   With the patch, the new code keeps the glock information in:
   /debug/gfs2/<fs>/glock
   That will allow us to create more debugfs files in the future.
3. This fixes a bug whereby a failed mount attempt causes the
   debugfs file to not be deleted.  Failed mount attempts should
   always clean up after themselves, including deleting the
   debugfs file and/or directory.

04b933f27b [GFS2] Red Hat bz 228540: owner references
In Testing the previously posted and accepted patch for
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=228540
I uncovered some gfs2 badness.  It turns out that the current
gfs2 code saves off a process pointer when glocks is taken
in both the glock and glock holder structures.  Those
structures will persist in memory long after the process has
ended; pointers to poisoned memory.

This problem isn't caused by the 228540 fix; the new capability
introduced by the fix just uncovered the problem.

I wrote this patch that avoids saving process pointers
and instead saves off the process pid.  Rather than
referencing the bad pointers, it now does process lookups.
There is special code that makes the output nicer for
printing holder information for processes that have ended.

This patch also adds a stub for the new "sprint_symbol"
function that exists in Andrew Morton's -mm patch set, but
won't go into the base kernel until 2.6.22, since it adds
functionality but doesn't fix a bug.

3b8249f617 [GFS2] Fix bz 224480 and cleanup glock demotion code
This patch prevents the printing of a warning message in cases where
the fs is functioning normally by handing off responsibility for
unlinked, but still open inodes, to another node for eventual deallocation.
Also, there is now an improved system for ensuring that such requests
to other nodes do not get lost. The callback on the iopen lock is
only ever called when i_nlink == 0 and when a node is unable to deallocate
it due to it still being in use on another node. When a node receives
the callback therefore, it knows that i_nlink must be zero, so we mark
it as such (in gfs2_drop_inode) in order that it will then attempt
deallocation of the inode itself.

As an additional benefit, queuing a demote request no longer requires
a memory allocation. This simplifies the code for dealing with gfs2_holders
as it removes one special case.

There are two new fields in struct gfs2_glock. gl_demote_state is the
state which the remote node has requested and gl_demote_time is the
time when the request came in. Both fields are only valid when the
GLF_DEMOTE flag is set in gl_flags.

7c52b166c5 [GFS2] Add gfs2_tool lockdump support to gfs2 (bz 228540)
The attached patch resolves bz 228540.  This adds the capability
for gfs2 to dump gfs2 locks through the debugfs file system.
This used to exist in gfs1 as "gfs_tool lockdump" but it's missing from
gfs2 because all the ioctls were stripped out.  Please see the bugzilla
for more history about the fix.  This patch is also attached to the bugzilla
record.

The patch is against Steve Whitehouse's latest nmw git tree kernel
(2.6.21-rc1) and has been tested on system trin-10.

b5d32bead1 [GFS2] Tidy up glops calls
This patch doesn't make any changes to the ordering of the various
operations related to glocking, but it does tidy up the calls to the
glops.c functions to make the structure more obvious.

The two functions: gfs2_glock_xmote_th() and gfs2_glock_drop_th() can be
made static within glock.c since they are called by every set of glock
operations. The xmote_th and drop_th glock operations are then made
conditional upon those two routines existing and called from the
previously mentioned functions in glock.c respectively.

Also it can be seen that the go_sync operation isn't needed since it can
easily be replaced by calls to xmote_bh and drop_bh respectively. This
results in no longer (confusingly) calling back into routines in glock.c
from glops.c and also reducing the glock operations by one member.
