* ocfs2: abstract out allocation lockingMark Fasheh2007-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Right now, file allocation for ocfs2 is done within ocfs2_extend_file(), which is either called from ->setattr() (for an i_size change), or at the top of ocfs2_file_aio_write(). Inodes on file systems with sparse file support will want to do their allocation during the actual write call. In either case the cluster locking decisions are the same. We abstract out that code into a new function, ocfs2_lock_allocators() which will be used by a later patch to enable writing to sparse files. This also provides a nice cleanup of ocfs2_extend_allocation(). Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>
* ocfs2: teach extend/truncate about sparse filesMark Fasheh2007-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For ocfs2_truncate_file(), we eliminate the "simple" truncate case which no longer exists since i_size is not tied to i_clusters. In ocfs2_extend_file(), we skip the allocation / page zeroing code for file systems which understand sparse files. The core truncate code is changed to do a bottom up tree traversal. This gets abstracted out into it's own function. To make things more readable, most of the special case handling for in-inode extents from ocfs2_do_truncate() is also removed. Though write support for sparse files comes in a later patch, we at least update ocfs2_prepare_inode_for_write() to skip allocation for sparse files.

* ocfs2: temporarily remove extent map cachingMark Fasheh2007-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | | The code in extent_map.c is not prepared to deal with a subtree being rotated between lookups. This can happen when filling holes in sparse files. Instead of a lengthy patch to update the code (which would likely lose the benefit of caching subtree roots), we remove most of the algorithms and implement a simple path based lookup. A less ambitious extent caching scheme will be added in a later patch. Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>
* ocfs2: sparse b-tree supportMark Fasheh2007-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | Introduce tree rotations into the b-tree code. This will allow ocfs2 to support sparse files. Much of the added code is designed to be generic (in the ocfs2 sense) so that it can later be re-used to implement large extended attributes. This patch only adds the rotation code and does minimal updates to callers of the extent api. Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>
* ocfs2: small cleanup of ocfs2_request_delete()Mark Fasheh2007-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | | There are two checks in there (one for inode newness, one for other mounted nodes) which are unnecessary, so remove them. The DLM will allow the trylock in either case without any messaging overhead. Removing these makes ocfs2_request_delete() a one liner function, so just move the trylock out one level into ocfs2_query_inode_wipe(). Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>

* ocfs2: Remove delete inode voteTiger Yang2007-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | | Ocfs2 currently does cluster-wide node messaging to check the open state of an inode during delete. This patch removes that mechanism in favor of an inode cluster lock which is taken at shared read when an inode is first read and dropped in clear_inode(). This allows a deleting node to test the liveness of an inode by attempting to take an exclusive lock.

* ocfs2: filter more error printsMark Fasheh2007-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | | We don't want to print anything at all in ocfs2_lookup() when getting an error from ocfs2_iget() - it could be something as innocuous as a signal being detected in the dlm. ocfs2_permission() should filter on -ENOENT which ocfs2_meta_lock() can return if the inode was deleted on another node.

* ocfs2: Replace panic() with emergency_restart() when fencingSunil Mushran2007-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | | We have noticed panic() hanging leading us to a situation in which the node, while otherwise dead, is still disk heartbeating. This leads to a hung cluster as the other nodes are waiting for this node to stop disk heartbeating. This situation is only resolved by power resetting the box.

* | cfq-iosched: fix alias + front merge bugJens Axboe2007-04-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There's a really rare and obscure bug in CFQ, that causes a crash in cfq_dispatch_insert() due to rq == NULL. One example of the resulting oops is seen here: http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/4/15/41 Neil correctly diagnosed the situation for how this can happen: if two concurrent requests with the exact same sector number (due to direct IO or aliasing between MD and the raw device access), the alias handling will add the request to the sortlist, but next_rq remains NULL. Read the more complete analysis at: http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/4/25/57 This looks like it requires md to trigger, even though it should potentially be possible to due with O_DIRECT (at least if you edit the kernel and doctor some of the unplug calls). The fix is to move the ->next_rq update to when we add a request to the rbtree. Then we remove the possibility for a request to exist in the rbtree code, but not have ->next_rq correctly updated.

Setting carrier to off based on the NO_CARRIER flag is also incorrect as that flag only triggers on TX failure and therefore isn't correct when no frames are being transmitted. Since there is already a 2*HZ MII carrier check going on, defer to that. Add a TRUST_LINK_STATUS feature flag for adapters where the LINK_STATUS flag is actually correct, and use that rather than the NO_CARRIER flag.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The sis900 driver appears to have a bug in which the receive routine passes the skbuff holding the received frame to the network stack before refilling the buffer in the rx ring. If a new skbuff cannot be allocated, the driver simply leaves a hole in the rx ring, which causes the driver to stop receiving frames and become non-recoverable without an rmmod/insmod according to reporters. This patch reverses that order, attempting to allocate a replacement buffer first, and receiving the new frame only if one can be allocated. If no skbuff can be allocated, the current skbuf in the rx ring is recycled, dropping the current frame, but keeping the NIC operational.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The listxattr() and getxattr() operations are only protected by a read lock.

This patch refactors get_xa_root(), __get_xa_root(), and create_xa_root(), into one get_xa_root() function that takes the appropriate locking around the entire critical section.

* | v9fs: don't use primary fid when removing fileLatchesar Ionkov2007-04-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | v9fs_insert uses v9fs_fid_lookup (which also locks the fid) to get the primary fid associated with the dentry and destroys the v9fs_fid struct after removing the file. If another process called v9fs_fid_lookup on the same dentry, it may wait undefinitely for the fid's lock (as the struct is freed). This patch changes v9fs_remove to use a cloned fid, so the primary fid is not locked and freed.
