| * [SCSI] sysfs: add filter function to groupsJames Bottomley2008-01-231-10/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch allows the various users of attribute_groups to selectively allow the appearance of group attributes. The primary consumer of this will be the transport classes in which we currently have elaborate attribute selection algorithms to do this same thing.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I can't see a reason why these shouldn't work on every group. However, they only seem to work on named groups. This patch allows the group functions to work on anonymous groups (those with NULL names).

| * | ocfs2: clean up bh null checksMark Fasheh2008-01-262-15/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If we know a buffer_head is non-null, then brelse() is unnecessary and put_bh() can be used instead. Also, an explicit check for NULL is unnecessary when using brelse(). This patch only covers buffer_head_io.c and resize.c, which have recently added code which exhibits this problem.

| * | ocfs2/dlm: Clear joining_node on hearbeat node downTao Ma2008-01-261-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. Signed-off-by: Tao Ma <tao.ma@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Hook up ocfs2_flock(), using the new flock lock type in dlmglue.c. A new mount option, "localflocks" is added so that users can revert to old functionality as need be. Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>
| * | [PATCH 1/2] ocfs2: add flock lock typeMark Fasheh2008-01-265-0/+284
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 all small local allocations. This window size is fixed to 8MB currently. 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. mount -o localalloc=X /dev/sdX /mntpoint Signed-off-by: Sunil Mushran <sunil.mushran@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>

| * | [PATCH 2/2] ocfs2: Implement group add for online resizeTao Ma2008-01-265-1/+269
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds the ability for a userspace program to request an extend of last cluster group on an Ocfs2 file system. The request is made via ioctl, OCFS2_IOC_GROUP_EXTEND. This is derived from EXT3_IOC_GROUP_EXTEND, but is obviously Ocfs2 specific. tunefs.ocfs2 would call this for an online-resize operation if the last cluster group isn't full.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

Combining locks saves us a round of lock mastery per inode and one less lock to ping between nodes during read/write.

It uses a set of counter pairs to keep track of the read-side critical sections and flips them when all tasks exit read-side critical section. The details of this implementation can be found in this paper - http://www.rdrop.com/users/paulmck/RCU/OLSrtRCU.2006.08.11a.pdf and the article- http://lwn.net/Articles/253651/ This patch was developed as a part of the -rt kernel development and meant to provide better latencies when read-side critical sections of RCU don't disable preemption. As a consequence of keeping track of RCU readers, the readers have a slight overhead (optimizations in the paper). This implementation co-exists with the "classic" RCU implementations and can be switched to at compiler. Also includes RCU tracing summarized in debugfs.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | JFS is missing a memory barrier needed to close the critical section before clearing the lock bit. Use lock bitops for this. unlock_page() has a second barrier after clearing the lock, which is required because it checks whether the waitqueue is active without locks. Such a barrier is not required here because the waitqueue spinlock is always taken (something to think about if performance is an issue).

| * | JFS: Make sure special inode data is written after journal is flushedDave Kleikamp2008-01-032-19/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch makes sure that data that we tried to flush before the journal was completely written actually gets pushed to disk. To avoid duplicating code, moved common code to write_special_inodes(). Signed-off-by: Dave Kleikamp <shaggy@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
| * | JFS: clear PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY for no-write pagesDave Kleikamp2008-01-031-3/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When JFS decides to drop a dirty metapage, it simply clears the META_dirty bit and leave alone the PG_dirty and PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY bits. When such no-write page goes to metapage_writepage(), the `relic' PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY tag should be cleared, to prevent pdflush from repeatedly trying to sync them. This is done through set_page_writeback(), so call it should be called in all cases. If no I/O is initiated, end_page_writeback() should be called immediately. This is how __block_write_full_page() does things. Signed-off-by: Dave Kleikamp <shaggy@linux.vnet.ibm.com> CC: Fengguang Wu <wfg@mail.ustc.edu.cn>

Strictly speaking, a read-only mount should not be writing to the filesystem, but we do this only to perform journal recovery. A read-only mount will fail if we don't recover the dirty journal. Also, when gfs2 is used as a root filesystem, it will be mounted read-only before being mounted read-write during the boot sequence. A failed read-only mount will panic the machine during bootup.
