      [GFS2] Tidy up meta_io code · 7276b3b0
      Steven Whitehouse 提交于
      Fix a bug in the directory reading code, where we might have dereferenced
      a NULL pointer in case of OOM. Updated the directory code to use the new
      & improved version of gfs2_meta_ra() which now returns the first block
      that was being read. Previously it was releasing it requiring following
      code to grab the block again at each point it was called.
      
      Also turned off readahead on directory lookups since we are reading a
      hash table, and therefore reading the entries in order is very
      unlikely. Readahead is still used for all other calls to the
      directory reading function (e.g. when growing the hash table).
      
      Removed the DIO_START constant. Everywhere this was used, it was
      used to unconditionally start i/o aside from a couple of places, so
      I've removed it and made the couple of exceptions to this rule into
      separate functions.
      
      Also hunted through the other DIO flags and removed them as arguments
      from functions which were always called with the same combination of
      arguments.
      
      Updated gfs2_meta_indirect_buffer to be a bit more efficient and
      hopefully also be a bit easier to read.

      [GFS2] Use hlist for glock hash chains · b6397893
      Steven Whitehouse 提交于
      This results in smaller list heads, so that we can have more chains
      in the same amount of memory (twice as many). I've multiplied the
      size of the table by four though - this is because we are saving
      memory by not having one lock per chain any more. So we land up
      using about the same amount of memory for the hash table as we
      did before I started these changes, the difference being that we
      now have four times as many hash chains.
      
      The reason that I say "about the same amount of memory" is that the
      actual amount now depends upon the NR_CPUS and some of the config
      variables, so that its not exact and in some cases we do use more
      memory. Eventually we might want to scale the hash table size
      according to the size of physical ram as measured on module load.

      [GFS2] Rewrite of examine_bucket() · 24264434
      Steven Whitehouse 提交于
      The existing implementation of this function in glock.c was not
      very efficient as it relied upon keeping a cursor element upon the
      hash chain in question and moving it along. This new version improves
      upon this by using the current element as a cursor. This is possible
      since we only look at the "next" element in the list after we've
      taken the read_lock() subsequent to calling the examiner function.
      Obviously we have to eventually drop the ref count that we are then
      left with and we cannot do that while holding the read_lock, so we
      do that next time we drop the lock. That means either just before
      we examine another glock, or when the loop has terminated.
      
      The new implementation has several advantages: it uses only a
      read_lock() rather than a write_lock(), so it can run simnultaneously
      with other code, it doesn't need a "plug" element, so that it removes
      a test not only from this list iterator, but from all the other glock
      list iterators too. So it makes things faster and smaller.

      [GFS2] Move rwlocks in glock.c into their own array · 37b2fa6a
      Steven Whitehouse 提交于
      This splits the rwlocks guarding the hash chains of the glock hash
      table into their own array. This will reduce memory usage in some
      cases due to better alignment, although the real reason for doing it
      is to allow the two tables to be different sizes in future (i.e.
      the locks will be sized proportionally with the max number of CPUs
      and the hash chains sized proportinally with the size of physical memory)
      
      In order to allow this, the gl_bucket member of struct gfs2_glock has
      now become gl_hash, so we record the hash rather than a pointer to the
      bucket itself.

      [GFS2] Update copyright, tidy up incore.h · e9fc2aa0
      Steven Whitehouse 提交于
      As per comments from Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@linux01.gwdg.de> this
      updates the copyright message to say "version" in full rather than
      "v.2". Also incore.h has been updated to remove forward structure
      declarations which are not required.
      
      The gfs2_quota_lvb structure has now had endianess annotations added
      to it. Also quota.c has been updated so that we now store the
      lvb data locally in endian independant format to avoid needing
      a structure in host endianess too. As a result the endianess
      conversions are done as required at various points and thus the
      conversion routines in lvb.[ch] are no longer required. I've
      moved the one remaining constant in lvb.h thats used into lm.h
      and removed the unused lvb.[ch].
      
      I have not changed the HIF_ constants. That is left to a later patch
      which I hope will unify the gh_flags and gh_iflags fields of the
      struct gfs2_holder.

      [GFS2] Speed up scanning of glocks · a2242db0
      Steven Whitehouse 提交于
      I noticed the gfs2_scand seemed to be taking a lot of CPU,
      so in order to cut that down a bit, here is a patch. Firstly
      the type of a glock is a constant during its lifetime, so that
      its possible to check this without needing locking. I've moved
      the (common) case of testing for an inode glock outside of
      the glmutex lock.
      
      Also there was a mutex left over from when the glock cache was
      master of the inode cache. That isn't required any more so I've
      removed that too.
      
      There is probably scope for further speed ups in the future
      in this area.

      [GFS2] Fix lock ordering bug in page fault path · 59a1cc6b
      Steven Whitehouse 提交于
      Mmapped files were able to trigger a lock ordering bug. Private
      maps do not need to take the glock so early on. Shared maps do
      unfortunately, however we can get around that by adding a flag
      into the flags for the struct gfs2_file. This only works because
      we are taking an exclusive lock at this point, so we know that
      nobody else can be racing with us.

      [GFS2] Fix unlinked file handling · feaa7bba
      Steven Whitehouse 提交于
      This patch fixes the way we have been dealing with unlinked,
      but still open files. It removes all limits (other than memory
      for inodes, as per every other filesystem) on numbers of these
      which we can support on GFS2. It also means that (like other
      fs) its the responsibility of the last process to close the file
      to deallocate the storage, rather than the person who did the
      unlinking. Note that with GFS2, those two events might take place
      on different nodes.
      
      Also there are a number of other changes:
      
       o We use the Linux inode subsystem as it was intended to be
      used, wrt allocating GFS2 inodes
       o The Linux inode cache is now the point which we use for
      local enforcement of only holding one copy of the inode in
      core at once (previous to this we used the glock layer).
       o We no longer use the unlinked "special" file. We just ignore it
      completely. This makes unlinking more efficient.
       o We now use the 4th block allocation state. The previously unused
      state is used to track unlinked but still open inodes.
       o gfs2_inoded is no longer needed
       o Several fields are now no longer needed (and removed) from the in
      core struct gfs2_inode
       o Several fields are no longer needed (and removed) from the in core
      superblock
      
      There are a number of future possible optimisations and clean ups
      which have been made possible by this patch.

      This fixes a ref count bug that sometimes showed up a umount time
      (causing it to hang) but it otherwise mostly harmless. At the same
      time there are some clean ups including making the log operations
      structures const, moving a memory allocation so that its not done
      in the fast path of checking to see if there is an outstanding
      transaction related to a particular glock.
      
      Removes the sd_log_wrap varaible which was updated, but never actually
      used anywhere. Updates the gfs2 ioctl() to run without the kernel lock
      (which it never needed anyway). Removes the "invalidate inodes" loop
      from GFS2's put_super routine. This is done in kill super anyway so
      we don't need to do it here. The loop was also bogus in that if there
      are any inodes "stuck" at this point its a bug and we need to know
      about it rather than hide it by hanging forever.
