      ocfs2: document access rules for blocked_lock_list · 7ec373cf
      Mark Fasheh 提交于
      ocfs2_super->blocked_lock_list and ocfs2_super->blocked_lock_count have some
      usage restrictions which aren't immediately obvious to anyone reading the
      code. It's a good idea to document this so that we avoid making costly
      mistakes in the future.

      ocfs2/dlm: Clear joining_node on hearbeat node down · 2d4b1cbb
      Tao Ma 提交于
      Currently the process of dlm join contains 2 steps: query join and assert join.
      After query join, the joined node will set its joining_node. So if the joining
      node happens to panic before the 2nd step, the joined node will fail to clear
      its joining_node flag because that node isn't in the domain map. It at least
      cause 2 problems.
      1. All the new join request will fail. So no new node can mount the volume.
      2. The joined node can't umount the volume since during the umount process it
         has to wait for the joining_node to be unknown. So the umount will be hanged.
      
      The solution is to clear the joining_node before we check the domain map.

      [PATCH 1/2] ocfs2: add flock lock type · cf8e06f1
      Mark Fasheh 提交于
      This adds a new dlmglue lock type which is intended to back flock()
      requests.
      
      Since these locks are driven from userspace, usage rules are much more
      liberal than the typical Ocfs2 internal cluster lock. As a result, we can't
      make use of most dlmglue features - lock caching and lock level
      optimizations in particular. Additionally, userspace is free to deadlock
      itself, so we have to deal with that in the same way as the rest of the
      kernel - by allowing a signal to abort a lock request.
      
      In order to keep ocfs2_cluster_lock() complexity down, ocfs2_file_lock()
      does it's own dlm coordination. We still use the same helper functions
      though, so duplicated code is kept to a minimum.

      Local alloc is a performance optimization in ocfs2 in which a node
      takes a window of bits from the global bitmap and then uses that for

      This patch allows users to specify the window size in MB including
      disabling it by passing in 0. If the number specified is too large,
      the fs will use the default value of 8MB.

      [PATCH 2/2] ocfs2: Implement group add for online resize · 7909f2bf
      Tao Ma 提交于
      This patch adds the ability for a userspace program to request that a
      properly formatted cluster group be added to the main allocation bitmap for
      an Ocfs2 file system. The request is made via an ioctl, OCFS2_IOC_GROUP_ADD.
      On a high level, this is similar to ext3, but we use a different ioctl as
      the structure which has to be passed through is different.
      
      During an online resize, tunefs.ocfs2 will format any new cluster groups
      which must be added to complete the resize, and call OCFS2_IOC_GROUP_ADD on
      each one. Kernel verifies that the core cluster group information is valid
      and then does the work of linking it into the global allocation bitmap.

      ocfs2: Initalize bitmap_cpg of ocfs2_super to be the maximum. · e9d578a8
      Tao Ma 提交于
      This value is initialized from global_bitmap->id2.i_chain.cl_cpg. If there
      is only 1 group, it will be equal to the total clusters in the volume. So
      as for online resize, it should change for all the nodes in the cluster.
      It isn't easy and there is no corresponding lock for it.
      
      bitmap_cpg is only used in 2 areas:
      1. Check whether the suballoc is too large for us to allocate from the global
         bitmap, so it is little used. And now the suballoc size is 2048, it rarely
         meet this situation and the check is almost useless.
      2. Calculate which group a cluster belongs to. We use it during truncate to
         figure out which cluster group an extent belongs too. But we should be OK
         if we increase it though as the cluster group calculated shouldn't change
         and we only ever have a small bitmap_cpg on file systems with a single
         cluster group.

      The meta lock now covers both meta data and data, so this just removes the

      to ping between nodes during read/write.
      
      We don't lose much - since meta locks were always held before a data lock
      (and at the same level) ordered writeout mode (the default) ensured that
      flushing for the meta data lock also pushed out data anyways.

      This can be broken down into these major areas:
       - Documentation updates (language translations and fixes, as
         well as kobject and kset documenatation updates.)
       - major kset/kobject/ktype rework and fixes.  This cleans up the
         kset and kobject and ktype relationship and architecture,
         making sense of things now, and good documenation and samples
         are provided for others to use.  Also the attributes for
         kobjects are much easier to handle now.  This cleaned up a LOT
         of code all through the kernel, making kobjects easier to use
         if you want to.
       - struct bus_type has been reworked to now handle the lifetime
         rules properly, as the kobject is properly dynamic.
       - struct driver has also been reworked, and now the lifetime
         issues are resolved.
       - the block subsystem has been converted to use struct device
         now, and not "raw" kobjects.  This patch has been in the -mm
         tree for over a year now, and finally all the issues are
         worked out with it.  Older distros now properly work with new
         kernels, and no userspace updates are needed at all.
       - nozomi driver is added.  This has also been in -mm for a long
         time, and many people have asked for it to go in.  It is now
         in good enough shape to do so.
       - lots of class_device conversions to use struct device instead.
         The tree is almost all cleaned up now, only SCSI and IB is the
         remaining code to fix up...

      slab: fix bootstrap on memoryless node · 556a169d
      Pekka Enberg 提交于
      If the node we're booting on doesn't have memory, bootstrapping kmalloc()
      caches resorts to fallback_alloc() which requires ->nodelists set for all
      nodes.  Fix that by calling set_up_list3s() for CACHE_CACHE in
      kmem_cache_init().
      
      As kmem_getpages() is called with GFP_THISNODE set, this used to work before
      because of breakage in 2.6.22 and before with GFP_THISNODE returning pages from
      the wrong node if a node had no memory. So it may have worked accidentally and
      in an unsafe manner because the pages would have been associated with the wrong
      node which could trigger bug ons and locking troubles.
