      GFS2: Improve resource group error handling · 09010978
      Steven Whitehouse 提交于
      This patch improves the error handling in the case where we
      discover that the summary information in the resource group
      doesn't match the bitmap information while in the process of
      allocating blocks. Originally this resulted in a kernel bug,
      but this patch changes that so that we return -EIO and print
      some messages explaining what went wrong, and how to fix it.
      
      We also remember locally not to try and allocate from the
      same rgrp again, so that a subsequent allocation in a
      different rgrp should succeed.

      [GFS2] Reduce inode size by moving i_alloc out of line · 6dbd8224
      Steven Whitehouse 提交于
      It is possible to reduce the size of GFS2 inodes by taking the i_alloc
      structure out of the gfs2_inode. This patch allocates the i_alloc
      structure whenever its needed, and frees it afterward. This decreases
      the amount of low memory we use at the expense of requiring a memory
      allocation for each page or partial page that we write. A quick test
      with postmark shows that the overhead is not measurable and I also note
      that OCFS2 use the same approach.
      
      In the future I'd like to solve the problem by shrinking down the size
      of the members of the i_alloc structure, but for now, this reduces the
      immediate problem of using too much low-memory on x86 and doesn't add
      too much overhead.

      [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] Add generation number · 4340fe62
      Steven Whitehouse 提交于
      This adds a generation number for the eventual use of NFS to the
      ondisk inode. Its backward compatible with the current code since
      it doesn't really matter what the generation number is to start with,
      and indeed since its set to zero, due to it being taken from padding
      in both the inode and rgrp header, it should be fine.
      
      The eventual plan is to use this rather than no_formal_ino in the
      NFS filehandles. At that point no_formal_ino will be unused.
      
      At the same time we also add a releasepages call back to the
      "normal" address space for gfs2 inodes. Also I've removed a
      one-linrer function thats not required any more.

      [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.
