      [GFS2] increase default lock limit · 2f708649
      David Teigland authored
      Increase the number of locks at which point the dlm begins asking gfs to
      reduce its lock usage.  The default value is largely arbitrary, but the
      current value of 50,000 ends up limiting performance unnecessarily for too
      many users.

      [GFS2] Fix list corruption in lops.c · 8bd95727
      Steven Whitehouse authored
      The patch below appears to fix the list corruption that we are seeing on
      occasion. Although the transaction structure is private to a single
      thread, when the queued structures are dismantled during an in-core
      commit, its possible for a different thread to be trying to add the same
      structure to another, new, transaction at the same time.
      
      To avoid this, this patch takes the log spinlock during this operation.

      [GFS2] Fix recursive locking attempt with NFS · d7c103d0
      Steven Whitehouse authored
      In certain cases, its possible for NFS to call the lookup code while
      holding the glock (when doing a readdirplus operation) so we need to
      check for that and not try and lock the glock twice. This also fixes a
      typo in a previous NFS related GFS2 patch.

      [DLM] can miss clearing resend flag · b790c3b7
      David Teigland authored
      A long, complicated sequence of events, beginning with the RESEND flag not
      being cleared on an lkb, can result in an unlock never completing.
      
      - lkb on waiters list for remote lookup
      - the remote node is both the dir node and the master node, so
        it optimizes the lookup into a request and sends a request
        reply back
      - the request reply is saved on the requestqueue to be processed
        after recovery
      - recovery runs dlm_recover_waiters_pre() which sets RESEND flag
        so the lookup will be resent after recovery
      - end of recovery: process_requestqueue takes saved request reply
        which removes the lkb off the waitesr list, _without_ clearing
        the RESEND flag
      - end of recovery: dlm_recover_waiters_post() doesn't do anything
        with the now completed lookup lkb (would usually clear RESEND)
      - later, the node unmounts, unlocks this lkb that still has RESEND
        flag set
      - the lkb is on the waiters list again, now for unlock, when recovery
        occurs, dlm_recover_waiters_pre() shows the lkb for unlock with RESEND
        set, doesn't do anything since the master still exists
      - end of recovery: dlm_recover_waiters_post() takes this lkb off
        the waiters list because it has the RESEND flag set, then reports
        an error because unlocks are never supposed to be handled in
        recover_waiters_post().
      - later, the unlock reply is received, doesn't find the lkb on
        the waiters list because recover_waiters_post() has wrongly
        removed it.
      - the unlock operation has been lost, and we're left with a
        stray granted lock
      - unmount spins waiting for the unlock to complete
      
      The visible evidence of this problem will be a node where gfs umount is
      spinning, the dlm waiters list will be empty, and the dlm locks list will
      show a granted lock.
      
      The fix is simply to clear the RESEND flag when taking an lkb off the
      waiters list.

      [DLM] saved dlm message can be dropped · 8fd3a98f
      David Teigland authored
      dlm_receive_message() returns 0 instead of returning 'error'.  What would
      happen is that process_requestqueue would take a saved message off the
      requestqueue and call receive_message on it.  receive_message would then
      see that recovery had been aborted, set error to EINTR, and 'goto out',
      expecting that the error would be returned.  Instead, 0 was always
      returned, so process_requestqueue would think that the message had been
      processed and delete it instead of saving it to process next time.  This
      means the message (usually an unlock in my tests) would be lost.

      [GFS2] use CURRENT_TIME_SEC instead of get_seconds in gfs2 · ddfe0627
      Eric Sandeen authored
      I was looking something else up and came across this...
      
      I don't honestly have a good reason to change it other than to make it
      like every other Linux filesystem in this regard.  ;-)  It doesn't
      functionally change anything, but makes some lines shorter. :)
      
      I'm also curious; why does gfs2 have 64-bits of on-disk timestamps, but
      not in timespec_t format, and only stores second resolutions?  Seems like
      you're halfway to sub-second resolutions already.
      
      I suppose if that gets implemented then all of the below should
      instead be CURRENT_TIME not CURRENT_TIME_SEC.

      [GFS2] Tidy up glops calls · b5d32bea
      Steven Whitehouse authored
      This patch doesn't make any changes to the ordering of the various
      operations related to glocking, but it does tidy up the calls to the
      glops.c functions to make the structure more obvious.
      
      The two functions: gfs2_glock_xmote_th() and gfs2_glock_drop_th() can be
      made static within glock.c since they are called by every set of glock
      operations. The xmote_th and drop_th glock operations are then made
      conditional upon those two routines existing and called from the
      previously mentioned functions in glock.c respectively.
      
      Also it can be seen that the go_sync operation isn't needed since it can
      easily be replaced by calls to xmote_bh and drop_bh respectively. This
      results in no longer (confusingly) calling back into routines in glock.c
      from glops.c and also reducing the glock operations by one member.

      [GFS2] Remove local exclusive glock mode · 1c0f4872
      Steven Whitehouse authored
      Here is a patch for GFS2 to remove the local exclusive flag. In
      the places it was used, mutex's are always held earlier in the
      call path, so it appears redundant in the LM_ST_SHARED case.
      
      Also, the GFS2 holders were setting local exclusive in any case where
      the requested lock was LM_ST_EXCLUSIVE. So the other places in the glock
      code where the flag was tested have been replaced with tests for the
      lock state being LM_ST_EXCLUSIVE in order to ensure the logic is the
      same as before (i.e. LM_ST_EXCLUSIVE is always locally exclusive as well
      as globally exclusive).

      [GFS2] Remove the "greedy" function from glock.[ch] · e5dab552
      Steven Whitehouse authored
      The "greedy" code was an attempt to retain glocks for a minimum length
      of time when they relate to mmap()ed files. The current implementation
      of this feature is not, however, ideal in that it required allocating
      memory in order to do this and its overly complicated.
      
      It also misses the mark by ignoring the other I/O operations which are
      just as likely to suffer from the same problem. So the plan is to remove
      this now and then add the functionality back as part of the glock state
      machine at a later date (and thus take into account all the possible
      users of this feature)

      [GFS2] Shrink gfs2_inode memory by half · fee852e3
      Steven Whitehouse authored
      Here is something I spotted (while looking for something entirely
      different) the other day.
      
      Rather than using a completion in each and every struct gfs2_holder,
      this removes it in favour of hashed wait queues, thus saving a
      considerable amount of memory both on the stack (where a number of
      gfs2_holder structures are allocated) and in particular in the
      gfs2_inode which has 8 gfs2_holder structures embedded within it.
      
      As a result on x86_64 the gfs2_inode shrinks from 2488 bytes to
      1912 bytes, a saving of 576 bytes per inode (no thats not a typo!).
      In actual practice we get a much better result than that since
      now that a gfs2_inode is under the 2048 byte barrier, we get two
      per 4k slab page effectively halving the amount of memory required
      to store gfs2_inodes.

      [GFS2] Clean up/speed up readdir · 3699e3a4
      Steven Whitehouse authored
      This removes the extra filldir callback which gfs2 was using to
      enclose an attempt at readahead for inodes during readdir. The
      code was too complicated and also hurts performance badly in the
      case that the getdents64/readdir call isn't being followed by
      stat() and it wasn't even getting it right all the time when it
      was.
      
      As a result, on my test box an "ls" of a directory containing 250000
      files fell from about 7mins (freshly mounted, so nothing cached) to
      between about 15 to 25 seconds. When the directory content was cached,
      the time taken fell from about 3mins to about 4 or 5 seconds.
      
      Interestingly in the cached case, running "ls -l" once reduced the time
      taken for subsequent runs of "ls" to about 6 secs even without this
      patch. Now it turns out that there was a special case of glocks being
      used for prefetching the metadata, but because of the timeouts for these
      locks (set to 10 secs) the metadata was being timed out before it was
      being used and this the prefetch code was constantly trying to prefetch
      the same data over and over.
      
      Calling "ls -l" meant that the inodes were brought into memory and once
      the inodes are cached, the glocks are not disposed of until the inodes
      are pushed out of the cache, thus extending the lifetime of the glocks,
      and thus bringing down the time for subsequent runs of "ls"
      considerably.

      [GFS2] Add writepages for "data=writeback" mounts · a8d638e3
      Steven Whitehouse authored
      It occurred to me that although a gfs2 specific writepages for ordered
      writes and journaled data would be tricky, by hooking writepages only
      for "data=writeback" mounts we could take advantage of not needing
      buffer heads (we don't use them on the read side, nor have we for some
      time) and create much larger I/Os for the block layer.
      
      Using blktrace both before and after, its possible to see that for large
      I/Os, most of the requests generated through writepages are now 1024
      sectors after this patch is applied as opposed to 8 sectors before.

      [DLM] fix master recovery · 222d3960
      David Teigland authored
      If master recovery happens on an rsb in one recovery sequence, then that
      sequence is aborted before lock recovery happens, then in the next
      sequence, we rely on the previous master recovery (which may now be
      invalid due to another node ignoring a lookup result) and go on do to the
      lock recovery where we get stuck due to an invalid master value.
      
       recovery cycle begins: master of rsb X has left
       nodes A and B send node C an rcom lookup for X to find the new master
       C gets lookup from B first, sets B as new master, and sends reply back to B
       C gets lookup from A next, and sends reply back to A saying B is master
       A gets lookup reply from C and sets B as the new master in the rsb
       recovery cycle on A, B and C is aborted to start a new recovery
       B gets lookup reply from C and ignores it since there's a new recovery
       recovery cycle begins: some other node has joined
       B doesn't think it's the master of X so it doesn't rebuild it in the directory
       C looks up the master of X, no one is master, so it becomes new master
       B looks up the master of X, finds it's C
       A believes that B is the master of X, so it sends its lock to B
       B sends an error back to A
       A resends
       this repeats forever, the incorrect master value on A is never corrected
      
      The fix is to do master recovery on an rsb that still has the NEW_MASTER
      flag set from an earlier recovery sequence, and therefore didn't complete
      lock recovery.

      in the no entry case and such would end up dereferencing a NULL ptr.
      
      This fixes:

      [GFS2] Fix ordering of page disposal vs. glock_dq · 49686f71
      Steven Whitehouse authored
      In case of unlinked files with dirty pages GFS2 wasn't clearing
      the pages in quite the right order. This patch clears the pages
      earlier (before the qlock_dq) to avoid the situation that the
      release of the glock results in attempting to write back data that
      has already been deallocated.
      
      This fixes Red Hat bugzilla: #220117

      I was a little over-enthusiastic turning schedule() calls int cond_sched() when fixing the DLM for Andrew Morton.
      
      These four should really be calls to schedule() or the dlm can busy-wait.

      [GFS2] Fix change nlink deadlock · 5509826f
      S. Wendy Cheng authored
      Bugzilla 215088
      
      Fix deadlock in gfs2_change_nlink() while installing RHEL5 into GFS2
      partition. The gfs2_rename() apparently needs block allocation for the
      new name (into the directory) where it requires rg locks. At the same
      time, while updating the nlink count for the replaced file,
      gfs2_change_nlink() tries to return the inode meta-data back to resource
      group where it needs rg locks too. Our logic doesn't allow process to
      acquire these locks recursively by the same process  (RHEL installer)
      that results a BUG call. This only happens within rename code path and
      only if the destination file exists before the rename operation.

      [GFS2] Fail over to readpage for stuffed files · e1d5b18a
      Steven Whitehouse authored
      This is partially derrived from a patch written by Russell Cattelan.
      It fixes a bug where there is a race between readpages and truncate
      by ignoring readpages for stuffed files. This is ok because a stuffed
      file will never be more than one block (minus sizeof(struct gfs2_dinode))
      in size and block size is always less than page size, so we do not lose
      anything efficiency-wise by not doing readahead for stuffed files. They
      will have already been "read ahead" by the action of reading the inode
      in, in the first place.
      
      This is the remaining part of the fix for Red Hat bugzilla #218966
      which had not yet made it upstream.

      [GFS2] Fix DIO deadlock · c7b33834
      Steven Whitehouse authored
      This patch fixes Red Hat bugzilla #212627 in which a deadlock occurs
      due to trying to take the i_mutex while holding a glock. The correct
      locking order is defined as i_mutex -> glock in all cases.
      
      I've left dealing with allocating writes. I know that we need to do
      that, but for now this should do the trick. We don't need to take the
      i_mutex on write, because the VFS has already taken it for us. On read
      we don't need it since the glock is enough protection. The reason that
      I've made some of the checks into a separate function is that we'll need
      to do the checks again in the allocating write case eventually, so this
      is partly in preparation for this. Likewise the return value test of !=
      1 might look a bit odd and thats because we'll need a third return value
      in case of requiring an allocation.
      
      I've made the change to deferred mode on the glock to ensure flushing
      read caches on other nodes. I notice that (using blktrace to look at
      whats going on) we appear to do a better job of large I/Os than ext3
      after this patch (in terms of not splitting up the I/Os).

      [DLM] fix lost flags in stub replies · 075529b5
      David Teigland authored
      When the dlm fakes an unlock/cancel reply from a failed node using a stub
      message struct, it wasn't setting the flags in the stub message.  So, in
      the process of receiving the fake message the lkb flags would be updated
      and cleared from the zero flags in the message.  The problem observed in
      tests was the loss of the USER flag which caused the dlm to think a user
      lock was a kernel lock and subsequently fail an assertion checking the
      validity of the ast/callback field.

      [DLM] fix receive_request() lvb copying · 8d07fd50
      David Teigland authored
      LVB's are not sent as part of new requests, but the code receiving the
      request was copying data into the lvb anyway.  The space in the message
      where it mistakenly thought the lvb lived actually contained the resource
      name, so it wound up incorrectly copying this name data into the lvb.  Fix
      is to just create the lvb, not copy junk into it.
