This adds readpages support (and also corrects a small bug in the readpage error path at the same time). Hopefully this will improve performance by allowing GFS to submit larger lumps of I/O at a time. In order to simplify the setting of BH_Boundary, it currently gets set when we hit the end of a indirect pointer block. There is always a boundary at this point with the current allocation code. It doesn't get all the boundaries right though, so there is still room for improvement in this. See comments in fs/gfs2/ops_address.c for further information about readpages with GFS2.

Well, I managed to track down the bug in gfs2 that was causing my grief. Below is a patch for the problem. Please incorporate as you see fit. Or should I say: as you see git. The problem was basically that you never set d_ops for the root inode, so the wrong hash algorithm was being used. But only for the root directory. Turns out that if I used subdirectories, it used the proper hash and my files were found just fine.

In dlm_grant_after_purge() we were holding a hash table read_lock while calling put_rsb() which potentially removes the rsb from the hash table, taking the same lock in write. Fix this by flagging rsb's ahead of time that have been purged. Then iteratively read_lock the hash table, find a flagged rsb, unlock, process rsb.

As pointed out by Wendy Cheng, the logic in GFS2's writepage() function wasn't quite right with respect to invalidating pages when a file has been truncated. This patch fixes that. CC: Wendy Cheng <wcheng@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

Despite my earlier careful search, there was a recursive lock left in the deallocation code. This removes it. It also should speed up deallocation be reducing the number of locking operations which take place by using two "try lock" operations on the two locks involved in inode deallocation which allows us to grab the locks out of order (compared with NFS which grabs the inode lock first and the iopen lock later). It is ok for us to fail while doing this since if it does fail it means that someone else is still using the inode and thus it wouldn't be possible to deallocate anyway. This fixes the bug reported to me by Rob Kenna. Cc: Rob Kenna <rkenna@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

Steven Whitehouse authored
This patch changes the last user of recursive locking so that it no longer needs this feature and removes it from the glock layer. This makes the glock code a lot simpler and easier to understand. Its also a prerequsite to adding support for the AOP_TRUNCATED_PAGE return code (or at least it is if you don't want your brain to melt in the process) I've left in a couple of checks just in case there is some place else in the code which is still using this feature that I didn't spot yet, but they can probably be removed long term.

Few of the notifier_chain_register() callers use __init in the definition of notifier_call. It is incorrect as the function definition should be available after the initializations (they do not unregister them during initializations). This patch fixes all such usages to _not_ have the notifier_call __init section. Signed-off-by: Chandra Seetharaman <sekharan@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

Few of the notifier_chain_register() callers use __devinitdata in the definition of notifier_block data structure. It is incorrect as the data structure should be available after the initializations (they do not unregister them during initializations). This was leading to an oops when notifier_chain_register() call is invoked for those callback chains after initialization. This patch fixes all such usages to _not_ have the notifier_block data structure in the init data section.

This patch addresses a flaw in LSM, where there is no mediation of readv() and writev() in for 32-bit compatible apps using a 64-bit kernel. This bug was discovered and fixed initially in the native readv/writev code [1], but was not fixed in the compat code. Thanks to Al for spotting this one.

sbi->s_group_desc is an array of pointers to buffer_head. memcpy() of buffer size from address of buffer_head is a bad idea - it will generate junk in any case, may oops if buffer_head is close to the end of slab page and next page is not mapped and isn't what was intended there. IOW, ->b_data is missing in that call. Fortunately, result doesn't go into the primary on-disk data structures, so only backup ones get crap written to them; that had allowed this bug to remain unnoticed until now.

This is a workaround for the case edge-triggered irq's. Several users seem to have broken configurations sharing edge-triggered irq's. To avoid losing IRQ's, reshedule if more work arrives.
