      gfs2: use workqueue instead of slow-work · 6ecd7c2d
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Workqueue can now handle high concurrency.  Convert gfs to use
      workqueue instead of slow-work.
      
      * Steven pointed out that recovery path might be run from allocation
        path and thus requires forward progress guarantee without memory
        allocation.  Create and use gfs_recovery_wq with rescuer.  Please
        note that forward progress wasn't guaranteed with slow-work.
      
      * Updated to use non-reentrant workqueue.

      GFS2: Tag all metadata with jid · 0ab7d13f
      Steven Whitehouse 提交于
      There are two spare field in the header common to all GFS2
      metadata. One is just the right size to fit a journal id
      in it, and this patch updates the journal code so that each
      time a metadata block is modified, we tag it with the journal
      id of the node which is performing the modification.
      
      The reason for this is that it should make it much easier to
      debug issues which arise if we can tell which node was the
      last to modify a particular metadata block.
      
      Since the field is updated before the block is written into
      the journal, each journal should only contain metadata which
      is tagged with its own journal id. The one exception to this
      is the journal header block, which might have a different node's
      id in it, if that journal was recovered by another node in the
      cluster.
      
      Thus each journal will contain a record of which nodes recovered
      it, via the journal header.
      
      The other field in the metadata header could potentially be
      used to hold information about what kind of operation was
      performed, but for the time being we just zero it on each
      transaction so that if we use it for that in future, we'll
      know that the information (where it exists) is reliable.
      
      I did consider using the other field to hold the journal
      sequence number, however since in GFS2's journaling we write
      the modified data into the journal and not the original
      data, this gives no information as to what action caused the
      modification, so I think we can probably come up with a better
      use for those 64 bits in the future.

      GFS2: Umount recovery race fix · fe64d517
      Steven Whitehouse 提交于
      This patch fixes a race condition where we can receive recovery
      requests part way through processing a umount. This was causing
      problems since the recovery thread had already gone away.
      
      Looking in more detail at the recovery code, it was really trying
      to implement a slight variation on a work queue, and that happens to
      align nicely with the recently introduced slow-work subsystem. As a
      result I've updated the code to use slow-work, rather than its own home
      grown variety of work queue.
      
      When using the wait_on_bit() function, I noticed that the wait function
      that was supplied as an argument was appearing in the WCHAN field, so
      I've updated the function names in order to produce more meaningful
      output.

      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.

      This patch merges the lock_nolock module into GFS2 itself. As well as removing

      anyway).

      [GFS2] Clean up the glock core · 6802e340
      Steven Whitehouse 提交于
      This patch implements a number of cleanups to the core of the
      GFS2 glock code. As a result a lot of code is removed. It looks
      like a really big change, but actually a large part of this patch
      is either removing or moving existing code.
      
      There are some new bits too though, such as the new run_queue()
      function which is considerably streamlined. Highlights of this
      patch include:
      
       o Fixes a cluster coherency bug during SH -> EX lock conversions
       o Removes the "glmutex" code in favour of a single bit lock
       o Removes the ->go_xmote_bh() for inodes since it was duplicating
         ->go_lock()
       o We now only use the ->lm_lock() function for both locks and
         unlocks (i.e. unlock is a lock with target mode LM_ST_UNLOCKED)
       o The fast path is considerably shortly, giving performance gains
         especially with lock_nolock
       o The glock_workqueue is now used for all the callbacks from the DLM
         which allows us to simplify the lock_dlm module (see following patch)
       o The way is now open to make further changes such as eliminating the two
         threads (gfs2_glockd and gfs2_scand) in favour of a more efficient
         scheme.
      
      This patch has undergone extensive testing with various test suites
      so it should be pretty stable by now.

      when gfs2 is used as a root filesystem, it will be mounted read-only

      [GFS2] Ensure journal file cache is flushed after recovery · 75be73a8
      Bob Peterson 提交于
      This is for bugzilla bug #248176: GFS2: invalid metadata block
      
      Patches 1 thru 3 were accepted upstream, but there were problems
      with 4 and 5.  Those issues have been resolved and now the recovery
      tests are passing without errors.  This code has gone through
      41 * 3 successful gfs2 recovery tests before it hit an
      unrelated (openais) problem.  I'm continuing to test it.
      
      This is a complete rewrite of patch 5 for bug #248176, written by
      Steve Whitehouse.  This is referred to in the bugzilla record as
      "new 6" and "a different solution".
      
      The problem was that the journal inodes, although protected by
      a glock, were not synched with the other nodes because they don't
      use the inode glock synch operations (i.e. no "glops" were defined).
      Therefore, journal recovery on a journal-recovering node were causing
      the blocks to get out of sync with the node that was actually trying
      to use that journal as it comes back up from a reboot.
      
      There are two possible solutions: (1) To make the journals use the
      normal inode glock sync operations, or (2) To make the journal
      operations take effect immediately (i.e. no caching).  Although
      option 1 works, it turns out to be a lot more code.  Steve opted
      for option 2, which is much simpler and therefore less prone to
      regression errors.

      [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.

      [PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.h · cd354f1a
      Tim Schmielau 提交于
      After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
      recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
      There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
      anything defined in there.  Presumably these includes were once needed for
      macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
      course of cleaning it up.
      
      To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
      removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.
      
      Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
      arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
      allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
      configs in arch/arm/configs on arm.  I also checked that no new warnings were
      introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
      by unnecessarily included header files).

      Fix a bug in the directory reading code, where we might have dereferenced

      & improved version of gfs2_meta_ra() which now returns the first block
      that was being read. Previously it was releasing it requiring following
      code to grab the block again at each point it was called.
      
      Also turned off readahead on directory lookups since we are reading a
      hash table, and therefore reading the entries in order is very
      unlikely. Readahead is still used for all other calls to the
      directory reading function (e.g. when growing the hash table).
      
      Removed the DIO_START constant. Everywhere this was used, it was
      used to unconditionally start i/o aside from a couple of places, so
      I've removed it and made the couple of exceptions to this rule into
      separate functions.
      
      Also hunted through the other DIO flags and removed them as arguments
      from functions which were always called with the same combination of
      arguments.

      [GFS2] Map multiple blocks at once where possible · 7a6bbacb
      Steven Whitehouse 提交于
      This is a tidy up of the GFS2 bmap code. The main change is that the
      bh is passed to gfs2_block_map allowing the flags to be set directly
      rather than having to repeat that code several times in ops_address.c.
      
      At the same time, the extent mapping code from gfs2_extent_map has
      been moved into gfs2_block_map. This allows all calls to gfs2_block_map
      to map extents in the case that no allocation is taking place. As a
      result reads and non-allocating writes should be faster. A quick test
      with postmark appears to support this.
      
      There is a limit on the number of blocks mapped in a single bmap
      call in that it will only ever map blocks which are pointed to
      from a single pointer block. So in other words, it will never try
      to do additional i/o in order to satisfy read-ahead. The maximum
      number of blocks is thus somewhat less than 512 (the GFS2 4k block
      size minus the header divided by sizeof(u64)). I've further limited
      the mapping of "normal" blocks to 32 blocks (to avoid extra work)
      since readpages() will currently read a maximum of 32 blocks ahead (128k).
      
      Some further work will probably be needed to set a suitable value
      for DIO as well, but for now thats left at the maximum 512 (see
      ops_address.c:gfs2_get_block_direct).
      
      There is probably a lot more that can be done to improve bmap for GFS2,
      but this is a good first step.

      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

      Mmapped files were able to trigger a lock ordering bug. Private
      maps do not need to take the glock so early on. Shared maps do
      unfortunately, however we can get around that by adding a flag
      into the flags for the struct gfs2_file. This only works because

      [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.
