* GFS2: Merge lock_dlm module into GFS2Steven Whitehouse2009-03-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is the big patch that I've been working on for some time now. There are many reasons for wanting to make this change such as: o Reducing overhead by eliminating duplicated fields between structures o Simplifcation of the code (reduces the code size by a fair bit) o The locking interface is now the DLM interface itself as proposed some time ago. o Fewer lookups of glocks when processing replies from the DLM o Fewer memory allocations/deallocations for each glock o Scope to do further optimisations in the future (but this patch is more than big enough for now!) Please note that (a) this patch relates to the lock_dlm module and not the DLM itself, that is still a separate module; and (b) that we retain the ability to build GFS2 as a standalone single node filesystem with out requiring the DLM. This patch needs a lot of testing, hence my keeping it I restarted my -git tree after the last merge window. That way, this has the maximum exposure before its merged. This is (modulo a few minor bug fixes) the same patch that I've been posting on and off the the last three months and its passed a number of different tests so far.

* [GFS2] Remove all_list from lock_dlmSteven Whitehouse2008-06-27
| | | | | | | | | | | I discovered that we had a list onto which every lock_dlm lock was being put. Its only function was to discover whether we'd got any locks left after umount. Since there was already a counter for that purpose as well, I removed the list. The saving is sizeof(struct list_head) per glock - well worth having.

* [GFS2] Fix ordering bug in lock_dlmSteven Whitehouse2008-06-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This looks like a lot of change, but in fact its not. Mostly its things moving from one file to another. The change is just that instead of queuing lock completions and callbacks from the DLM we now pass them directly to GFS2. This gives us a net loss of two list heads per glock (a fair saving in memory) plus a reduction in the latency of delivering the messages to GFS2, plus we now have one thread fewer as well. There was a bug where callbacks and completions could be delivered in the wrong order due to this unnecessary queuing which is fixed by this patch.

* [GFS2] Clean up the glock coreSteven Whitehouse2008-06-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch implements a number of cleanups to the core of the GFS2 glock code. As a result a lot of code is removed. It looks like a really big change, but actually a large part of this patch is either removing or moving existing code. There are some new bits too though, such as the new run_queue() function which is considerably streamlined. Highlights of this patch include: o Fixes a cluster coherency bug during SH -> EX lock conversions o Removes the "glmutex" code in favour of a single bit lock o Removes the ->go_xmote_bh() for inodes since it was duplicating ->go_lock() o We now only use the ->lm_lock() function for both locks and unlocks (i.e. unlock is a lock with target mode LM_ST_UNLOCKED) o The fast path is considerably shortly, giving performance gains especially with lock_nolock o The glock_workqueue is now used for all the callbacks from the DLM which allows us to simplify the lock_dlm module (see following patch) o The way is now open to make further changes such as eliminating the two threads (gfs2_glockd and gfs2_scand) in favour of a more efficient scheme. This patch has undergone extensive testing with various test suites so it should be pretty stable by now. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com> Cc: Bob Peterson <rpeterso@redhat.com>
* [GFS2] fix GFP_KERNEL misusesJosef Bacik2008-04-10
| | | | | | | | | | | There are several places where GFP_KERNEL allocations happen under a glock, which will result in hangs if we're under memory pressure and go to re-enter the fs in order to flush stuff out. This patch changes the culprits to GFS_NOFS to keep this problem from happening. Thank you, Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik <jbacik@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
* [GFS2] Invalidate cache at correct pointBenjamin Marzinski2008-03-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* [GFS2] Reduce size of struct gdlm_lockSteven Whitehouse2007-07-09
| | | | | | | | | | | This patch removes the completion (which is rather large) from struct gdlm_lock in favour of using the wait_on_bit() functions. We don't need to add any extra fields to the structure to do this, so we save 32 bytes (on x86_64) per structure. This adds up to quite a lot when we may potentially have millions of these lock structures, Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com> Acked-by: David Teigland <teigland@redhat.com>
* [GFS2] use log_error before LM_OUT_ERRORDavid Teigland2007-05-01
| | | | | | | | We always want to see the details of the error returned to gfs, but log_debug is often turned off, so use log_error (printk). Signed-off-by: David Teigland <teigland@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
* [GFS2] Speed up lock_dlm's locking (move sprintf)Steven Whitehouse2007-05-01
| | | | | | | | | The following patch speeds up lock_dlm's locking by moving the sprintf out from the lock acquisition path and into the lock creation path. This reduces the amount of CPU time used in acquiring locks by a fair amount. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com> Acked-by: David Teigland <teigland@redhat.com>
* [GFS2] Use void * instead of typedef for locking module interfaceSteven Whitehouse2006-09-08
| | | | | | | | | | | As requested by Jan Engelhardt, this removes the typedefs in the locking module interface and replaces them with void *. Also since we are changing the interface, I've added a few consts as well.

* [GFS2] Update copyright, tidy up incore.hSteven Whitehouse2006-09-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As per comments from Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@linux01.gwdg.de> this updates the copyright message to say "version" in full rather than "v.2". Also incore.h has been updated to remove forward structure declarations which are not required. The gfs2_quota_lvb structure has now had endianess annotations added to it. Also quota.c has been updated so that we now store the lvb data locally in endian independant format to avoid needing a structure in host endianess too. As a result the endianess conversions are done as required at various points and thus the conversion routines in lvb.[ch] are no longer required. I've moved the one remaining constant in lvb.h thats used into lm.h and removed the unused lvb.[ch]. I have not changed the HIF_ constants. That is left to a later patch which I hope will unify the gh_flags and gh_iflags fields of the struct gfs2_holder.
