* GFS2: Fix type mapping for demote_rq interfaceSteven Whitehouse2010-10-06
| | | | | | | | | Mostly the glock operations follow the type of the glock. The one exception is the transaction glock, so we need to check for that directly. Reported-by: Dr. David Alan Gilbert <linux@treblig.org> Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
* GFS2 fatal: filesystem consistency error on renameBob Peterson2010-09-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes a GFS2 problem whereby the first rename after a mount can result in a file system consistency error being flagged improperly and cause the file system to withdraw. The problem is that the rename code tries to run the rgrp list with function gfs2_blk2rgrpd before the rgrp list is guaranteed to be read in from disk. The patch makes the rename function hold the rindex glock (as the gfs2_unlink code does today) which reads in the rgrp list if need be. There were a total of three places in the rename code that improperly referenced the rgrp list without the rindex glock and this patch fixes all three.

* GFS2: Improve journal allocation via sysfsSteven Whitehouse2010-09-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Recently a feature was added to GFS2 to allow journal id allocation via sysfs. This patch builds upon that so that a negative journal id will be treated as an error code to be passed back as the return code from mount. This allows termination of the mount process if there is a failure. Also, the process has been updated so that the kernel will wait for a journal id, even in the "spectator" case. This is required in order to avoid mounting a filesystem in case there is an error while joining the cluster. In the spectator case, 0 is written into the file to indicate that all is well, and that mount should continue. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
* GFS2: Add "norecovery" mount option as a synonym for "spectator"Steven Whitehouse2010-09-29
| | | | | | | | | XFS supports the "norecovery" mount option which is basically the same as the GFS2 spectator mode. This adds support for "norecovery" as a synonym for spectator mode, which is hopefully a more obvious description of what it actually does. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
* GFS2: Fix spectator umount issueSteven Whitehouse2010-09-29
| | | | | | | | | | The tests further down the recovery function relating to unlocking the journal need to be updated to match the intial test. Also, a test in the umount code which was surplus to requirements has been removed. Umounting spectator mounts now works correctly, as expected. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

* GFS2: reserve more blocks for transactionsBenjamin Marzinski2010-09-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Some of the functions in GFS2 were not reserving space in the transaction for the resource group header and the resource groups bitblocks that get added when you do allocation. GFS2 now makes sure to reserve space for the resource group header and either all the bitblocks in the resource group, or one for each block that it may allocate, whichever is smaller using the new gfs2_rg_blocks() inline function.

* GFS2: Fix journal check for spectator mountsSteven Whitehouse2010-09-27
| | | | | | | | | When checking journals for spectator mounts, we cannot rely on the journal being locked, whatever its jid might be. This patch ensures that we always get the journal locks when checking journals for a spectator mount. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
* GFS2: Remove upgrade mount optionSteven Whitehouse2010-09-24
| | | | | | | | | This option has never done anything useful. Also at the same time this cleans up the sb checks which are done at mount time. The debug option will be accepted, but ignored in future. Since it didn't do anything, there didn't seem much point in retaining it. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
* GFS2: Remove localcaching mount optionSteven Whitehouse2010-09-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This option defaulted to on for lock_nolock mounts and off otherwise. The only function was to avoid the revalidation of dentries. In the cluster case, that is entirely pointless and liable to cause coherency problems. The patch changes the revalidation to depend upon whether the fs is a local or cluster fs (i.e. it follows the existing default behaviour). I very much doubt anybody ever used this option as there is no reason to. Even so we will continue to accept it on the mount command line, but ignore it.

* GFS2: Use new workqueue schemeSteven Whitehouse2010-09-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The recovery workqueue can be freezable since we want it to finish what it is doing if the system is to be frozen (although why you'd want to freeze a cluster node is beyond me since it will result in it being ejected from the cluster). It does still make sense for single node GFS2 filesystems though. The glock workqueue will benefit from being able to run more work items concurrently. A test running postmark shows improved performance and multi-threaded workloads are likely to benefit even more. It needs to be high priority because the latency directly affects the latency of filesystem glock operations. The delete workqueue is similar to the recovery workqueue in that it must not get blocked by memory allocations, and may run for a long time. Potentially other GFS2 threads might also be converted to workqueues, but I'll leave that for a later patch. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com> Acked-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
* GFS2: Update handling of DLM return codes to match realitySteven Whitehouse2010-09-20
| | | | | | | | | | GFS2's idea of which return codes it needs to handle was based upon those listed in dlm.h. Those didn't cover all the possible codes and listed some which never happen. This updates GFS2 to handle all the codes which can actually be returned from the DLM under various circumstances. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
* GFS2: Don't enforce min hold time when two demotes occur in rapid successionSteven Whitehouse2010-09-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Due to the design of the VFS, it is quite usual for operations on GFS2 to consist of a lookup (requiring a shared lock) followed by an operation requiring an exclusive lock. If a remote node has cached an exclusive lock, then it will receive two demote events in rapid succession firstly for a shared lock and then to unlocked. The existing min hold time code was triggering in this case, even if the node was otherwise idle since the state change time was being updated by the initial demote. This patch introduces logic to skip the min hold timer in the case that a "double demote" of this kind has occurred. The min hold timer will still be used in all other cases. A new glock flag is introduced which is used to keep track of whether there have been any newly queued holders since the last glock state change. The min hold time is only applied if the flag is set.

* GFS2: fallocate supportBenjamin Marzinski2010-09-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds support for fallocate to gfs2. Since the gfs2 does not support uninitialized data blocks, it must write out zeros to all the blocks. However, since it does not need to lock any pages to read from, gfs2 can write out the zero blocks much more efficiently. On a moderately full filesystem, fallocate works around 5 times faster on average. The fallocate call also allows gfs2 to add blocks to the file without changing the filesize, which will make it possible for gfs2 to preallocate space for the rindex file, so that gfs2 can grow a completely full filesystem.

| | | | | | | | | | This adds a check to ensure that if we reach the block allocator that we don't try and proceed if there is no alloc structure hanging off the inode.

| | | | | | | | | With the update of the truncate code, ip->i_disksize and inode->i_size are merely copies of each other. This means we can remove ip->i_disksize and use inode->i_size exclusively reducing the size of a GFS2 inode by 8 bytes. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

It leads to quite a few unpleasant inconsistencies, starting with SIGSEGV potentially arriving not where it should and including e.g. mess with sigsuspend(); consider two pending signals blocked until sigsuspend() unblocks them. We pick the first one; then, if we are hit by interrupt while in the handler, we process the second one as well. If we are not, and if no syscalls had been made, we get out of the first handler and leave the second signal pending; normally sigreturn() would've picked it anyway, but here it starts with restoring the original mask and voila - the second signal is blocked again. On everything else we get both delivered consistently. It's actually easy to fix; the only thing to watch out for is prevention of double syscall restart. Fortunately, the idea I've nicked from arm fix by rmk works just fine... Testcase demonstrating the behaviour in question; on alpha we get one or both flags set (usually one), on everything else both are always set. #include <signal.h> #include <stdio.h> int had1, had2; void f1(int sig) { had1 = 1; } void f2(int sig) { had2 = 1; } main() { sigset_t set1, set2; sigemptyset(&set1); sigemptyset(&set2); sigaddset(&set2, 1); sigaddset(&set2, 2); signal(1, f1); signal(2, f2); sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK, &set2, NULL); raise(1); raise(2); sigsuspend(&set1); printf("had1:%d had2:%d\n", had1, had2); } Tested-by: Michael Cree <mcree@orcon.net.nz> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Matt Turner <mattst88@gmail.com>
| * alpha: fix a 14 years old bug in sigreturn tracingAl Viro2010-09-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The way sigreturn() is implemented on alpha breaks PTRACE_SYSCALL, all way back to 1.3.95 when alpha has grown PTRACE_SYSCALL support. What happens is direct return to ret_from_syscall, in order to bypass mangling of a3 (error indicator) and prevent other mutilations of registers (e.g. by syscall restart). That's fine, but... the entire TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE codepath is kept separate on alpha and post-syscall stopping/notifying the tracer is after the syscall. And the normal path we are forcibly switching to doesn't have it. So we end up with *one* stop in traced sigreturn() vs. two in other syscalls. And yes, strace is visibly broken by that; try to strace the following #include <signal.h> #include <stdio.h> void f(int sig) {} main() { signal(SIGHUP, f); raise(SIGHUP); write(1, "eeeek\n", 6); } and watch the show. The close(1) = 405 in the end of strace output is coming from return value of write() (6 == __NR_close on alpha) and syscall number of exit_group() (__NR_exit_group == 405 there). The fix is fairly simple - the only thing we end up missing is the call of syscall_trace() and we can tell whether we'd been called from the SYSCALL_TRACE path by checking ra value. Since we are setting the switch_stack up (that's what sys_sigreturn() does), we have the right environment for calling syscall_trace() - just before we call undo_switch_stack() and return. Since undo_switch_stack() will overwrite s0 anyway, we can use it to store the result of "has it been called from SYSCALL_TRACE path?" check. The same thing applies in rt_sigreturn().

| * alpha: unb0rk sigsuspend() and rt_sigsuspend()Al Viro2010-09-18

Leaving that after switch to ERESTARTNOHAND was a Bad Idea(tm), since now that screws the restart - if we hit the case when get_signal_to_deliver() returns 0, we will step back to syscall insn, with v0 set to EINTR and a3 to 1. The latter won't matter, since EINTR is 4, aka __NR_write. Testcase: #include <signal.h> #define _GNU_SOURCE #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/syscall.h> main() { sigset_t mask; sigemptyset(&mask); sigaddset(&mask, SIGCONT); sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK, &mask, NULL); kill(0, SIGCONT); syscall(__NR_sigsuspend, 1, "b0rken\n", 7); } results on alpha in immediate message to stdout... Fix is obvious; moreover, since we don't need regs anymore, we can switch to normal prototypes for these guys and lose the wrappers. Even better, rt_sigsuspend() is identical to generic version in kernel/signal.c now.

This patch takes care of it. Signed-off-by: Dan Rosenberg <dan.j.rosenberg@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

| * | | r8169: Handle rxfifo errors on 8168 chipsMatthew Garrett2010-09-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Thinkpad X100e seems to have some odd behaviour when the display is powered off - the onboard r8169 starts generating rxfifo overflow errors. The root cause of this has not yet been identified and may well be a hardware design bug on the platform, but r8169 should be more resiliant to this. This patch enables the rxfifo interrupt on 8168 devices and removes the MAC version check in the interrupt handler, and the machine no longer crashes when under network load while the screen turns off.

This causes problems with some embedded devices. However for large MSS devices we do want to half-MSS packetize otherwise we never get enough packets into the pipe for things like fast retransmit and recovery to work. Be careful also to handle the case where MSS > window, otherwise we'll never send until the probe timer. Reported-by: ツ Leandro Melo de Sales <leandroal@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On resume, before starting the PAL state machine, check if the adjust_link() method is well supplied. If not, this would lead to a NULL pointer dereference in the phy_state_machine() function. This scenario can happen if the Ethernet driver call manually the PHY functions instead of using the PAL state machine. The mv643xx_eth driver is a such example.
