* GFS2: Use kmalloc when possible for ->readdir()Steven Whitehouse2010-07-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If we don't need a huge amount of memory in ->readdir() then we can use kmalloc rather than vmalloc to allocate it. This should cut down on the greater overheads associated with vmalloc for smaller directories. We may be able to eliminate vmalloc entirely at some stage, but this is easy to do right away. Also using GFP_NOFS to avoid any issues wrt to deleting inodes while under a glock, and suggestion from Linus to factor out the alloc/dealloc. I've given this a test with a variety of different sized directories and it seems to work ok.

* mm: add context argument to shrinker callbackDave Chinner2010-07-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | The current shrinker implementation requires the registered callback to have global state to work from. This makes it difficult to shrink caches that are not global (e.g. per-filesystem caches). Pass the shrinker structure to the callback so that users can embed the shrinker structure in the context the shrinker needs to operate on and get back to it in the callback via container_of().

* GFS2: rename causes kernel OopsBob Peterson2010-07-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes a kernel Oops in the GFS2 rename code. The problem was in the way the gfs2 directory code was trying to re-use sentinel directory entries. In the failing case, gfs2's rename function was renaming a file to another name that had the same non-trivial length. The file being renamed happened to be the first directory entry on the leaf block. First, the rename code (gfs2_rename in ops_inode.c) found the original directory entry and decided it could do its job by simply replacing the directory entry with another. Therefore it determined correctly that no block allocations were needed. Next, the rename code deleted the old directory entry prior to replacing it with the new name. Therefore, the soon-to-be replaced directory entry was temporarily made into a directory entry "sentinel" or a place holder at the start of a leaf block. Lastly, it went to re-add the replacement directory entry in that leaf block. However, when gfs2_dirent_find_space was looking for space in the leaf block, it used the wrong value for the sentinel. That threw off its calculations so later it decides it can't really re-use the sentinel and therefore must allocate a new leaf block. But because it previously decided to re-use the directory entry, it didn't waste the time to grab a new block allocation for the inode. Therefore, the inode's i_alloc pointer was still NULL and it crashes trying to reference it. In the case of sentinel directory entries, the entire dirent is reused, not just the "free space" portion of it, and therefore the function gfs2_dirent_find_space should use the value 0 rather than GFS2_DIRENT_SIZE(0) for the actual dirent size. Fixing this calculation enables the reproducer programs to work properly. Signed-off-by: Bob Peterson <rpeterso@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
* GFS2: BUG in gfs2_adjust_quotaAbhijith Das2010-07-15
| | | | | | | | | | | HighMem pages on i686 do not get mapped to the buffer_heads and this was causing a NULL pointer dereference when we were trying to memset page buffers to zero.

* GFS2: Fix kernel NULL pointer dereference by dlm_astdBob Peterson2010-07-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes a problem in an error path when looking up dinodes. There are two sister-functions, gfs2_inode_lookup and gfs2_process_unlinked_inode. Both functions acquire and hold the i_iopen glock for the dinode being looked up. The last thing they try to do is hold the i_gl glock for the dinode. If that glock fails for some reason, the error path was incorrectly calling gfs2_glock_put for the i_iopen glock twice. This resulted in the glock being prematurely freed. The "minimum hold time" usually kept the glock in memory, but the lock interface to dlm (aka lock_dlm) freed its memory for the glock. In some circumstances, it would cause dlm's dlm_astd daemon to try to call the bast function for the freed lock_dlm memory, which resulted in a NULL pointer dereference.

* GFS2: recovery stuck on transaction lockBob Peterson2010-07-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes bugzilla bug #590878: GFS2: recovery stuck on transaction lock. We set the frozen flag on the glock when we receive a completion that cannot be delivered due to blocked locks. At that point we check to see whether the first waiting holder has the noexp flag set. If the noexp lock is queued later, then we need to unfreeze the glock at that point in time, namely, in the glock work function. This patch was originally written by Steve Whitehouse, but since he's on holiday, I'm submitting it. It's been well tested with a complex recovery test called revolver.

This patch differs from the RHEL5 fix (Red Hat bz #555754) which simply writes to the 8-byte value field of the quota. In upstream quota code, we're required to write the entire quota (88 bytes) which can be split across a page boundary. We check for such quotas, and read/write the two parts from/to the corresponding pages holding these parts. With this patch, I don't see the bug anymore using the reproducer in Red Hat bz 555754. I successfully ran a couple of simple tests/mounts/ umounts and it doesn't seem like this patch breaks anything else.

Multiple functions were rewritten to remove the need to call gfs2_log_lock(). Instead of using one test to see if gfs2_logd had work to do, there are now seperate tests to check if there are two many buffers in the incore log or if there are two many items on the active items list. This patch is a port of a patch Steve Whitehouse wrote about a year ago, with some minor changes. Since gfs2_ail1_start always submits all the active items, it no longer needs to keep track of the first ai submitted, so this has been removed. In gfs2_log_reserve(), the order of the calls to prepare_to_wait_exclusive() and wake_up() when firing off the logd thread has been switched. If it called wake_up first there was a small window for a race, where logd could run and return before gfs2_log_reserve was ready to get woken up. If gfs2_logd ran, but did not free up enough blocks, gfs2_log_reserve() would be left waiting for gfs2_logd to eventualy run because it timed out. Finally, gt_logd_secs, which controls how long to wait before gfs2_logd times out, and flushes the log, can now be set on mount with ar_commit.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes a couple gfs2 problems with the reclaiming of unlinked dinodes. First, there were a couple of livelocks where everything would come to a halt waiting for a glock that was seemingly held by a process that no longer existed. In fact, the process did exist, it just had the wrong pid number in the holder information. Second, there was a lock ordering problem between inode locking and glock locking. Third, glock/inode contention could sometimes cause inodes to be improperly marked invalid by iget_failed. Signed-off-by: Bob Peterson <rpeterso@redhat.com>

* / include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo2010-03-30

Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | GFS2 tracks the number of revokes and unrevokes that are part of committed transactions via sd_log_commited_revoke. It is possible for one process to add revokes during its transaction, while another process unrevokes them during its transaction. If the second process finishes its transaction first, sd_log_commited_revoke will be decremented by the number of unrevokes that the second process did, without first being incremented by the number of revokes the first process did. This is fine, since all started transactions must be completed before the journal can be flushed. However, sd_log_commited_revoke is an unsigned integer, and log_refund() causes an assertion failure if it would go negative at the end of a transaction. This patch makes sd_log_commited_revoke a signed integer and allows it to go negative. __gfs2_log_flush() still checks that it mataches the actual number of revokes.

| * | quota: move code from sync_quota_sb into vfs_quota_syncChristoph Hellwig2010-03-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currenly sync_quota_sb does a lot of sync and truncate action that only applies to "VFS" style quotas and is actively harmful for the sync performance in XFS. Move it into vfs_quota_sync and add a wait parameter to ->quota_sync to tell if we need it or not. My audit of the GFS2 code says it's also not needed given the way GFS2 implements quotas, but I'd be happy if this can get a detailed review.

When the log needs to push these buffers to disk, it also walks the list from the head. The result is that the the ordered buffers are submitted to disk in reverse order. For large writes, this means that whenever the log flushes large streams of reverse sequential order buffers are pushed down into the block layers. The elevators don't handle this particularly well, so IO rates tend to be significantly lower than if the IO was issued in ascending block order. Queue new ordered buffers to the tail of the ordered buffer list to ensure that IO is dispatched in the order it was submitted. This should significantly improve large sequential write speeds. On a disk capable of 85MB/s, speeds increase from 50MB/s to 65MB/s for noop and from 38MB/s to 50MB/s for cfq.

* | | GFS2: Remove loopy umount codeSteven Whitehouse2010-03-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As a consequence of the previous patch, we can now remove the loop which used to be required due to the circular dependency between the inodes and glocks. Instead we can just invalidate the inodes, and then clear up any glocks which are left. Also we no longer need the rwsem since there is no longer any danger of the inode invalidation calling back into the glock code (and from there back into the inode code).

* | | GFS2: Metadata address space clean upSteven Whitehouse2010-03-01
|/ / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since the start of GFS2, an "extra" inode has been used to store the metadata belonging to each inode. The only reason for using this inode was to have an extra address space, the other fields were unused. This means that the memory usage was rather inefficient. The reason for keeping each inode's metadata in a separate address space is that when glocks are requested on remote nodes, we need to be able to efficiently locate the data and metadata which relating to that glock (inode) in order to sync or sync and invalidate it (depending on the remotely requested lock mode). This patch adds a new type of glock, which has in addition to its normal fields, has an address space. This applies to all inode and rgrp glocks (but to no other glock types which remain as before). As a result, we no longer need to have the second inode. This results in three major improvements: 1. A saving of approx 25% of memory used in caching inodes 2. A removal of the circular dependency between inodes and glocks 3. No confusion between "normal" and "metadata" inodes in super.c Although the first of these is the more immediately apparent, the second is just as important as it now enables a number of clean ups at umount time. Those will be the subject of future patches. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
* | GFS2: Fix bmap allocation corner-case bugSteven Whitehouse2010-02-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch solves a corner case during allocation which occurs if both metadata (indirect) and data blocks are required but there is an obstacle in the filesystem (e.g. a resource group header or another allocated block) such that when the allocation is requested only enough blocks for the metadata are returned. By changing the exit condition of this loop, we ensure that a minimum of one data block will always be returned. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
