      [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.

      [GFS2] Fix a ref count bug and other clean ups · b09e593d
      Steven Whitehouse 提交于
      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.

      [GFS2] Fix for root inode ref count bug · 7359a19c
      Steven Whitehouse 提交于
      Umount is now working correctly again. The bug was due to
      not getting an extra ref count when mounting the fs. We
      should have bumped it by two (once for the internal pointer
      to the root inode from the super block and once for the
      inode hanging off the dcache entry for root).
      
      Also this patch tidys up the code dealing with looking up
      and creating inodes. We now pass Linux inodes (with gfs2_inodes
      attached) rather than the other way around and this reduces code
      duplication in various places.

      [GFS2] Make journaled data files identical to normal files on disk · 18ec7d5c
      Steven Whitehouse 提交于
      This is a very large patch, with a few still to be resolved issues
      so you might want to check out the previous head of the tree since
      this is known to be unstable. Fixes for the various bugs will be
      forthcoming shortly.
      
      This patch removes the special data format which has been used
      up till now for journaled data files. Directories still retain the
      old format so that they will remain on disk compatible with earlier
      releases. As a result you can now do the following with journaled
      data files:
      
       1) mmap them
       2) export them over NFS
       3) convert to/from normal files whenever you want to (the zero length
          restriction is gone)
      
      In addition the level at which GFS' locking is done has changed for all
      files (since they all now use the page cache) such that the locking is
      done at the page cache level rather than the level of the fs operations.
      This should mean that things like loopback mounts and other things which
      touch the page cache directly should now work.
      
      Current known issues:
      
       1. There is a lock mode inversion problem related to the resource
          group hold function which needs to be resolved.
       2. Any significant amount of I/O causes an oops with an offset of hex 320
          (NULL pointer dereference) which appears to be related to a journaled data
          buffer appearing on a list where it shouldn't be.
       3. Direct I/O writes are disabled for the time being (will reappear later)
       4. There is probably a deadlock between the page lock and GFS' locks under
          certain combinations of mmap and fs operation I/O.
       5. Issue relating to ref counting on internally used inodes causes a hang
          on umount (discovered before this patch, and not fixed by it)
       6. One part of the directory metadata is different from GFS1 and will need
          to be resolved before next release.
