* 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. This should only happen if there is a bug in GFS2. The error return code is distinctive in order that it will be easily spotted. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

* GFS2: Remove i_disksizeSteven Whitehouse2010-09-20
| | | | | | | | | 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>

| | | | | | | | | | | This updates GFS2's truncate code to use the new truncate sequence correctly.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | cifs_get_smb_ses must be called on a server pointer on which it holds an active reference. It first does a search for an existing SMB session. If it finds one, it'll put the server reference and then try to ensure that the negprot is done, etc. If it encounters an error at that point then it'll return an error. There's a potential problem here though. When cifs_get_smb_ses returns an error, the caller will also put the TCP server reference leading to a double-put. Fix this by having cifs_get_smb_ses only put the server reference if it found an existing session that it could use and isn't returning an error.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the tcpStatus is still CifsNew, the main cifs_demultiplex_loop can break out prematurely in some cases. This is wrong as we will almost always have other structures with pointers to the TCP_Server_Info. If the main loop breaks under any other condition other than tcpStatus == CifsExiting, then it'll face a use-after-free situation. I don't see any reason to treat a CifsNew tcpStatus differently than CifsGood. I believe we'll still want to attempt to reconnect in either case. What should happen in those situations is that the MIDs get marked as MID_RETRY_NEEDED. This will make CIFSSMBNegotiate return -EAGAIN, and then the caller can retry the whole thing on a newly reconnected socket. If that fails again in the same way, the caller of cifs_get_smb_ses should tear down the TCP_Server_Info struct.

Much of the existing code in cifs assumes that when there is a cisfSesInfo struct, that it holds a reference to a valid TCP_Server_Info struct. We can never allow cifsd to exit when a cifsSesInfo struct is still holding a reference to the server. The server pointers will then point to freed memory. This patch eliminates a couple of questionable conditions where it does this. The idea here is to make an -EINTR return from kernel_recvmsg behave the same way as -ERESTARTSYS or -EAGAIN. If the task was signalled from cifs_put_tcp_session, then tcpStatus will be CifsExiting, and the kernel_recvmsg call will return quickly. There's also another condition where this can occur too -- if the tcpStatus is still in CifsNew, then it will also exit if the server closes the socket prematurely. I think we'll probably also need to fix that situation, but that requires a bit more consideration. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steve French <sfrench@us.ibm.com>

This has caused severe livelocks under heavy parallel create workloads because the log IO completions have been getting held up behind metadata IO completions. Hence log commits would stall, memory allocation would stall because pages could not be cleaned, and lock contention on the AIL during inode IO completion processing was being seen to slow everything down even further. By making the log Io completion workqueue a high priority workqueue, they are queued ahead of all data/metadata IO completions and processed before the data/metadata completions. Hence the log never gets stalled, and operations needed to clean memory can continue as quickly as possible. This avoids the livelock conditions and allos the system to keep running under heavy load as per normal.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The XFS_IOC_FSGETXATTR ioctl allows unprivileged users to read 12 bytes of uninitialized stack memory, because the fsxattr struct declared on the stack in xfs_ioc_fsgetxattr() does not alter (or zero) the 12-byte fsx_pad member before copying it back to the user. This patch takes care of it. Signed-off-by: Dan Rosenberg <dan.j.rosenberg@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alex Elder <aelder@sgi.com>
