2012-07-16dlm: use rsbtbl as resource directoryDavid Teigland
Remove the dir hash table (dirtbl), and use the rsb hash table (rsbtbl) as the resource directory. It has always been an unnecessary duplication of information. This improves efficiency by using a single rsbtbl lookup in many cases where both rsbtbl and dirtbl lookups were needed previously. This eliminates the need to handle cases of rsbtbl and dirtbl being out of sync. In many cases there will be memory savings because the dir hash table no longer exists.

2012-01-04dlm: add node slots and generationDavid Teigland
Slot numbers are assigned to nodes when they join the lockspace. The slot number chosen is the minimum unused value starting at 1. Once a node is assigned a slot, that slot number will not change while the node remains a lockspace member. If the node leaves and rejoins it can be assigned a new slot number. A new generation number is also added to a lockspace. It is set and incremented during each recovery along with the slot collection/assignment. The slot numbers will be passed to gfs2 which will use them as journal id's. Signed-off-by: David Teigland <teigland@redhat.com>
2007-10-10[DLM] block dlm_recv in recovery transitionDavid Teigland
Introduce a per-lockspace rwsem that's held in read mode by dlm_recv threads while working in the dlm. This allows dlm_recv activity to be suspended when the lockspace transitions to, from and between recovery cycles. The specific bug prompting this change is one where an in-progress recovery cycle is aborted by a new recovery cycle. While dlm_recv was processing a recovery message, the recovery cycle was aborted and dlm_recoverd began cleaning up. dlm_recv decremented recover_locks_count on an rsb after dlm_recoverd had reset it to zero. This is fixed by suspending dlm_recv (taking write lock on the rwsem) before aborting the current recovery. The transitions to/from normal and recovery modes are simplified by using this new ability to block dlm_recv. The switch from normal to recovery mode means dlm_recv goes from processing locking messages, to saving them for later, and vice versa. Races are avoided by blocking dlm_recv when setting the flag that switches between modes. Signed-off-by: David Teigland <teigland@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2006-01-18[DLM] The core of the DLM for GFS2/CLVMDavid Teigland
This is the core of the distributed lock manager which is required to use GFS2 as a cluster filesystem. It is also used by CLVM and can be used as a standalone lock manager independantly of either of these two projects. It implements VAX-style locking modes.
