      GFS2: glock livelock · 1a0eae88
      Bob Peterson 提交于
      This patch fixes a couple gfs2 problems with the reclaiming of
      unlinked dinodes.  First, there were a couple of livelocks where
      everything would come to a halt waiting for a glock that was
      seemingly held by a process that no longer existed.  In fact, the
      process did exist, it just had the wrong pid number in the holder
      information.  Second, there was a lock ordering problem between
      inode locking and glock locking.  Third, glock/inode contention
      could sometimes cause inodes to be improperly marked invalid by
      iget_failed.

      GFS2: Merge lock_dlm module into GFS2 · f057f6cd
      Steven Whitehouse 提交于
      This is the big patch that I've been working on for some time
      now. There are many reasons for wanting to make this change
      such as:
       o Reducing overhead by eliminating duplicated fields between structures
       o Simplifcation of the code (reduces the code size by a fair bit)
       o The locking interface is now the DLM interface itself as proposed
         some time ago.
       o Fewer lookups of glocks when processing replies from the DLM
       o Fewer memory allocations/deallocations for each glock
       o Scope to do further optimisations in the future (but this patch is
         more than big enough for now!)
      
      Please note that (a) this patch relates to the lock_dlm module and
      not the DLM itself, that is still a separate module; and (b) that
      we retain the ability to build GFS2 as a standalone single node
      filesystem with out requiring the DLM.
      
      This patch needs a lot of testing, hence my keeping it I restarted
      my -git tree after the last merge window. That way, this has the maximum
      exposure before its merged. This is (modulo a few minor bug fixes) the
      same patch that I've been posting on and off the the last three months
      and its passed a number of different tests so far.

      GFS2: high time to take some time over atime · 719ee344
      Steven Whitehouse 提交于
      Until now, we've used the same scheme as GFS1 for atime. This has failed
      since atime is a per vfsmnt flag, not a per fs flag and as such the
      "noatime" flag was not getting passed down to the filesystems. This
      patch removes all the "special casing" around atime updates and we
      simply use the VFS's atime code.
      
      The net result is that GFS2 will now support all the same atime related
      mount options of any other filesystem on a per-vfsmnt basis. We do lose
      the "lazy atime" updates, but we gain "relatime". We could add lazy
      atime to the VFS at a later date, if there is a requirement for that
      variant still - I suspect relatime will be enough.
      
      Also we lose about 100 lines of code after this patch has been applied,
      and I have a suspicion that it will speed things up a bit, even when
      atime is "on". So it seems like a nice clean up as well.
      
      From a user perspective, everything stays the same except the loss of
      the per-fs atime quantum tweekable (ought to be per-vfsmnt at the very
      least, and to be honest I don't think anybody ever used it) and that a
      number of options which were ignored before now work correctly.
      
      Please let me know if you've got any comments. I'm pushing this out
      early so that you can all see what my plans are.

      This patch fixes a locking issue in the rename code by ensuring that we hold

      [GFS2] don't call permission() · f58ba889
      Miklos Szeredi 提交于
      GFS2 calls permission() to verify permissions after locks on the files
      have been taken.
      
      For this it's sufficient to call gfs2_permission() instead.  This
      results in the following changes:
      
        - IS_RDONLY() check is not performed
        - IS_IMMUTABLE() check is not performed
        - devcgroup_inode_permission() is not called
        - security_inode_permission() is not called
      
      IS_RDONLY() should be unnecessary anyway, as the per-mount read-only
      flag should provide protection against read-only remounts during
      operations.  do_gfs2_set_flags() has been fixed to perform
      mnt_want_write()/mnt_drop_write() to protect against remounting
      read-only.
      
      IS_IMMUTABLE has been added to gfs2_permission()
      
      Repeating the security checks seems to be pointless, as they don't
      normally change, and if they do, it's independent of the filesystem
      state.

      [GFS2] Eliminate (almost) duplicate field from gfs2_inode · 77658aad
      Steven Whitehouse 提交于
      The blocks counter is almost a duplicate of the i_blocks
      field in the VFS inode. The only difference is that i_blocks
      can be only 32bits long for 32bit arch without large single file
      support. Since GFS2 doesn't handle the non-large single file
      case (for 32 bit anyway) this adds a new config dependency on
      64BIT || LSF. This has always been the case, however we've never
      explicitly said so before.
      
      Even if we do add support for the non-LSF case, we will still
      not require this field to be duplicated since we will not be
      able to access oversized files anyway.
      
      So the net result of all this is that we shave 8 bytes from a gfs2_inode
      and get our config deps correct.

      [GFS2] Streamline indirect pointer tree height calculation · ecc30c79
      Steven Whitehouse 提交于
      This patch improves the calculation of the tree height in order to reduce
      the number of operations which are carried out on each call to gfs2_block_map.
      In the common case, we now make a single comparison, rather than calculating
      the required tree height from scratch each time. Also in the case that the
      tree does need some extra height, we start from the current height rather from
      zero when we work out what the new height ought to be.
      
      In addition the di_height field is moved into the inode proper and reduced
      in size to a u8 since the value must be between 0 and GFS2_MAX_META_HEIGHT (10).

      [GFS2] Alternate gfs2_iget to avoid looking up inodes being freed · 7a9f53b3
      Benjamin Marzinski 提交于
      There is a possible deadlock between two processes on the same node, where one
      process is deleting an inode, and another process is looking for allocated but
      unused inodes to delete in order to create more space.
      
      process A does an iput() on inode X, and it's i_count drops to 0. This causes
      iput_final() to be called, which puts an inode into state I_FREEING at
      generic_delete_inode(). There no point between when iput_final() is called, and
      when I_FREEING is set where GFS2 could acquire any glocks. Once I_FREEING is
      set, no other process on that node can successfully look up that inode until
      the delete finishes.
      
      process B locks the the resource group for the same inode in get_local_rgrp(),
      which is called by gfs2_inplace_reserve_i()
      
      process A tries to lock the resource group for the inode in
      gfs2_dinode_dealloc(), but it's already locked by process B
      
      process B waits in find_inode for the inode to have the I_FREEING state cleared.
      
      Deadlock.
      
      This patch solves the problem by adding an alternative to gfs2_iget(),
      gfs2_iget_skip(), that simply skips any inodes that are in the I_FREEING
      state.o The alternate test function is just like the original one, except that
      it fails if the inode is being freed, and sets a skipped flag. The alternate
      set function is just like the original, except that it fails if the skipped
      flag is set. Only try_rgrp_unlink() calls gfs2_iget_skip() instead of
      gfs2_iget().

      [GFS2] Remove i_mode passing from NFS File Handle · 35dcc52e
      Wendy Cheng 提交于
      GFS2 has been passing i_mode within NFS File Handle. Other than the
      wrong assumption that there is always room for this extra 16 bit value,
      the current gfs2_get_dentry doesn't really need the i_mode to work
      correctly. Note that GFS2 NFS code does go thru the same lookup code
      path as direct file access route (where the mode is obtained from name
      lookup) but gfs2_get_dentry() is coded for different purpose. It is not
      used during lookup time. It is part of the file access procedure call.
      When the call is invoked, if on-disk inode is not in-memory, it has to
      be read-in. This makes i_mode passing a useless overhead.

      [GFS2] Fix sign problem in quota/statfs and cleanup _host structures · bb8d8a6f
      Steven Whitehouse 提交于
      This patch fixes some sign issues which were accidentally introduced
      into the quota & statfs code during the endianess annotation process.
      Also included is a general clean up which moves all of the _host
      structures out of gfs2_ondisk.h (where they should not have been to
      start with) and into the places where they are actually used (often only
      one place). Also those _host structures which are not required any more
      are removed entirely (which is the eventual plan for all of them).
      
      The conversion routines from ondisk.c are also moved into the places
      where they are actually used, which for almost every one, was just one
      single place, so all those are now static functions. This also cleans up
      the end of gfs2_ondisk.h which no longer needs the #ifdef __KERNEL__.
      
      The net result is a reduction of about 100 lines of code, many functions
      now marked static plus the bug fixes as mentioned above. For good
      measure I ran the code through sparse after making these changes to
      check that there are no warnings generated.

      [GFS2] Clean up inode number handling · dbb7cae2
      Steven Whitehouse 提交于
      This patch cleans up the inode number handling code. The main difference
      is that instead of looking up the inodes using a struct gfs2_inum_host
      we now use just the no_addr member of this structure. The tests relating
      to no_formal_ino can then be done by the calling code. This has
      advantages in that we want to do different things in different code
      paths if the no_formal_ino doesn't match. In the NFS patch we want to
      return -ESTALE, but in the ->lookup() path, its a bug in the fs if the
      no_formal_ino doesn't match and thus we can withdraw in this case.
      
      In order to later fix bz #201012, we need to be able to look up an inode
      without knowing no_formal_ino, as the only information that is known to
      us is the on-disk location of the inode in question.
      
      This patch will also help us to fix bz #236099 at a later date by
      cleaning up a lot of the code in that area.

      are no changes to the on-disk format either.

      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

      [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

      which have been made possible by this patch.

      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.

         lookup routines.
       - Better error checking on directory lookup (previously different
         routines checked for different errors)
       - The leaf split operation has a couple of redundant operations
         removed from it, so it should be faster.
      
      There is still further scope for further clean ups in the directory
      code, and readdir in particular could do with slimming down a bit.

      We no longer lookup ".gfs2_admin" in the root directory in order to
      find it, but instead use the inode number given in the superblock.
      Both the root directory and the admin directory are now looked up using
      the same routine, so the redundant code is removed.
      
      Also, there is no longer a reference to the root inode in the
      GFS2 super block. When required this can be retreived via
      sb->s_root->d_inode instead.
      
      Assuming that we introduce a metadata filesystem type for GFS, then
      this is a first step towards that goal.
