OCFS2 puts inode meta data in the "lock value block" provided by the DLM. Typically, i_generation is encoded in the lock name so that a deleted inode on and a new one in the same block don't share the same lvb. Unfortunately, that scheme means that the read in ocfs2_read_locked_inode() is potentially thrown away as soon as the meta data lock is taken - we cannot encode the lock name without first knowing i_generation, which requires a disk read. This patch encodes i_generation in the inode meta data lvb, and removes the value from the inode meta data lock name. This way, the read can be covered by a lock, and at the same time we can distinguish between an up to date and a stale LVB. This will help cold-cache stat(2) performance in particular. Since this patch changes the protocol version, we take the opportunity to do a minor re-organization of two of the LVB fields. Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>

When i_generation is removed from the lockname, this will help us determine whether a meta data lvb has information that is in sync with the local struct inode. Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>

lvb_version doesn't need to be a whole 32 bits. Make it an 8 bit field to free up some space. This should be backwards compatible until we use one of the fields, in which case we'd bump the lvb version anyway. Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>

We can't use LKM_LOCAL for new dentry locks because an unlink and subsequent re-create of a name/inode pair may result in the lock still being mastered somewhere in the cluster. Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>

Make use of FS_RENAME_DOES_D_MOVE to avoid a race condition that can occur during ->rename() if we d_move() outside of the parent directory cluster locks, and another node discovers the new name (created during the rename) and unlinks it. d_move() will unconditionally rehash a dentry - which will leave stale data in the system.

Some file systems want to manually d_move() the dentries involved in a rename. We can do this by making use of the FS_ODD_RENAME flag if we just have nfs_rename() unconditionally do the d_move(). While there, we rename the flag to be more descriptive. OCFS2 uses this to protect that part of the rename operation with a cluster lock.

Mark Fasheh authored
Replace the dentry vote mechanism with a cluster lock which covers a set of dentries. This allows us to force d_delete() only on nodes which actually care about an unlink. Every node that does a ->lookup() gets a read only lock on the dentry, until an unlink during which the unlinking node, will request an exclusive lock, forcing the other nodes who care about that dentry to d_delete() it. The effect is that we retain a very lightweight ->d_revalidate(), and at the same time get to make large improvements to the average case performance of the ocfs2 unlink and rename operations. This patch adds the higher level API and the dentry manipulation code. Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>

Unfortunately, sparc64 doesn't have an easy way to do a "64 X 64 --> 128" bit multiply like PowerPC and IA64 do. We were doing a "64 X 64 --> 64" bit multiple which causes overflow very quickly with a 30-bit quotient shift. So use a quotientshift count of 10 instead of 30, just like x86 and ARM do. This also fixes the wrapping of printk timestamp values every ~17 seconds. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This started as a PCI reference fixup but to do that I need to build it, to build it I need to fix it and its full of 32bitisms and uglies. It has been resurrected, I'm not sure if this is a thank you for the work on the license stuff or punishment for some unknown misdeed however 8). I've also fixed a memory scribble in the init code. One oddity - the changes from HZ * to constants are deliberate. Whoever originally wrote the code (or cleaned it up) used HZ for a cycle timing loop even though is not HZ related. I've put it back to the counts used in the old days when the driver was most used. Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>

Received from Mark Salyzyn: This patch to the driver's documentation adds a few new product entries, sorts the entries on OEM lines first for easy searching, followed by product id order to make it easier to compare against the open source pci list. The driver has 'family match' so is somewhat future proof, no code changes are required to recognize the new products.

Received from Mark Salyzyn: Until the system is stabilized, I am suggesting the enclosed modification to prevent the driver from tickling the panic. Once sysfs and friends are stabilized, the patch may be backed out. We have yet to evaluate if we really want to relinquish existing Scsi Devices in any case, holding on to them as configuration of arrays comes and goes makes some sense as well. As a result, we have opted to pull the lines rather than comment them in legacy. Signed-off-by: Mark Haverkamp <markh@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>

Received from Mark Salyzyn: The only real difference between the rkt and rx platform modules is the offset of the message registers. This patch recognizes this similarity and simplifies the driver to reduce it's code footprint and to improve maintainability by reducing the code duplication. Visibly, the 'rkt.c' portion of this patch looks more complicated than it really is. View it as retaining the rkt-only specifics of the interface.

Received from Mark Salyzyn: I am placing this functionality into an insmod parameter. Normally the physical components are exported to sg, and are blocked from showing up in sd. Note that the pass-through I/O path via the driver through the Firmware to the physical disks is not an optimized path, the card is designed for Hardware RAID, elevator sorting and caching. This should not be used as a means for utilizing the aacraid based controllers as a generic scsi/SATA/SAS controller, performance should suck by a few percentage points, any RAID meta-data on the drives will confuse the controller about who owns the drives and there is a high risk of destroying content in both directions. Unreliable and for experimentation or strange controlled circumstances only. Signed-off-by: Mark Haverkamp <markh@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>
