      [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.
