2012-06-08GFS2: Cache last hash bucket for glock seq_filesSteven Whitehouse
For the glocks and glstats seq_files, which are exposed via debugfs we should cache the most recent hash bucket, along with the offset into that bucket. This allows us to restart from that point, rather than having to begin at the beginning each time. This is an idea from Eric Dumazet, however I've slightly extended it so that if the position from which we are due to start is at any point beyond the last cached point, we start from the last cached point, plus whatever is the appropriate offset. I don't really expect people to be lseeking around these files, but if they did so with only positive offsets, then we'd still get some of the benefit of using a cached offset. With my simple test of around 200k entries in the file, I'm seeing an approx 10x speed up. Cc: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2012-06-07GFS2: Increase buffer size for glocks and glstats debugfs filesSteven Whitehouse
As per Al Viro's suggestion, this increases the buffer size used for these two files. This provides a speed up of slightly less than 8x (i.e. proportional to the buffer size) for cases when we have large numbers of glocks.

2012-06-06GFS2: Fix error handling when reading an invalid block from the journalSteven Whitehouse
When we read an invalid block from the journal, we should not call withdraw, but simply print a message and return an error. It is up to the caller to then handle that error. In the case of mount that means a failed mount, rather than a withdraw (requiring a reboot). In the case of recovering another nodes journal then we return an error via the uevent.

2012-06-06GFS2: Add "top dir" flag supportSteven Whitehouse
This patch adds support for the "top dir" flag. Currently this is unused but a subsequent patch is planned which will add support for the Orlov allocation policy when allocating subdirectories in a parent with this flag set. In order to ensure backward compatible behaviour, mkfs.gfs2 does not currently tag the root directory with this flag, it must always be set manually.

2012-06-06GFS2: Extend the life of the reservationsBob Peterson
This patch lengthens the lifespan of the reservations structure for inodes. Before, they were allocated and deallocated for every write operation. With this patch, they are allocated when the first write occurs, and deallocated when the last process closes the file. It's more efficient to do it this way because it saves GFS2 a lot of unnecessary allocates and frees. It also gives us more flexibility for the future: (1) we can now fold the qadata structure back into the structure and save those alloc/frees, (2) we can use this for multi-block reservations.

2012-05-11GFS2: Add rgrp information to block_alloc trace pointBob Peterson
This is a second attempt at a patch that adds rgrp information to the block allocation trace point for GFS2. As suggested, the patch was modified to list the rgrp information _after_ the fields that exist today. Again, the reason for this patch is to allow us to trace and debug problems with the block reservations patch, which is still in the works. We can debug problems with reservations if we can see what block allocations result from the block reservations. It may also be handy in figuring out if there are problems in rgrp free space accounting. In other words, we can use it to track the rgrp and its free space along side the allocations that are taking place.

2012-05-10vfs: make it possible to access the dentry hash/len as one 64-bit entryLinus Torvalds
This allows comparing hash and len in one operation on 64-bit architectures. Right now only __d_lookup_rcu() takes advantage of this, since that is the case we care most about. The use of anonymous struct/unions hides the alternate 64-bit approach from most users, the exception being a few cases where we initialize a 'struct qstr' with a static initializer. This makes the problematic cases use a new QSTR_INIT() helper function for that (but initializing just the name pointer with a "{ .name = xyzzy }" initializer remains valid, as does just copying another qstr structure).

2012-05-04GFS2: Fix sgid propagation when using ACLsSteven Whitehouse
This cleans up the mode setting code when creating inodes. The SGID bit was being reset by setattr_copy() when the user creating a subdirectory was not in the owning group. When ACLs are in use this SGID bit should have been propagated if the ACL allows creation of a subdirectory. GFS2's behaviour now matches that of the other ACL supporting filesystems in this regard.

2012-05-02gfs2: fix recovery during unmountDavid Teigland

2012-05-02dlm: fixes for nodir modeDavid Teigland
The "nodir" mode (statically assign master nodes instead of using the resource directory) has always been highly experimental, and never seriously used. This commit fixes a number of problems, making nodir much more usable. - Major change to recovery: recover all locks and restart all in-progress operations after recovery. In some cases it's not possible to know which in-progess locks to recover, so recover all. (Most require recovery in nodir mode anyway since rehashing changes most master nodes.) - Change the way nodir mode is enabled, from a command line mount arg passed through gfs2, into a sysfs file managed by dlm_controld, consistent with the other config settings. - Allow recovering MSTCPY locks on an rsb that has not yet been turned into a master copy. - Ignore RCOM_LOCK and RCOM_LOCK_REPLY recovery messages from a previous, aborted recovery cycle. Base this on the local recovery status not being in the state where any nodes should be sending LOCK messages for the current recovery cycle. - Hold rsb lock around dlm_purge_mstcpy_locks() because it may run concurrently with dlm_recover_master_copy(). - Maintain highbast on process-copy lkb's (in addition to the master as is usual), because the lkb can switch back and forth between being a master and being a process copy as the master node changes in recovery. - When recovering MSTCPY locks, flag rsb's that have non-empty convert or waiting queues for granting at the end of recovery. (Rename flag from LOCKS_PURGED to RECOVER_GRANT and similar for the recovery function, because it's not only resources with purged locks that need grant a grant attempt.) - Replace a couple of unnecessary assertion panics with error messages.

2012-04-24GFS2: Remove unused argument from gfs2_internal_readAndrew Price
gfs2_internal_read accepts an unused ra_state argument, left over from when we did readahead on the rindex.

2012-04-24GFS2: Remove bd_list_trSteven Whitehouse
This is another clean up in the logging code. This per-transaction list was largely unused. Its main function was to ensure that the number of buffers in a transaction was correct, however that counter was only used to check the number of buffers in the bd_list_tr, plus an assert at the end of each transaction. With the assert now changed to use the calculated buffer counts, we can remove both bd_list_tr and its associated counter. This should make the code easier to understand as well as shrinking a couple of structures. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2012-04-24GFS2: Remove duplicate log codeSteven Whitehouse
The main part of this patch merges the two functions used to write metadata and data buffers to the log. Most of the code is common between the two functions, so this provides a nice clean up, and makes the code more readable. The gfs2_get_log_desc() function is also extended to take two more arguments, and thus avoid having to set the length and data1 fields of this strucuture as a separate operation. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2012-04-24GFS2: Clean up log write code pathSteven Whitehouse
Prior to this patch, we have two ways of sending i/o to the log. One of those is used when we need to allocate both the data to be written itself and also a buffer head to submit it. This is done via sb_getblk and friends. This is used mostly for writing log headers. The other method is used when writing blocks which have some in-place counterpart. This is the case for all the metadata blocks which are journalled, and when journaled data is in use, for unescaped journalled data blocks. This patch replaces both of those two methods, and about half a dozen separate i/o submission points with a single i/o submission function. We also go direct to bio rather than using buffer heads, since this allows us to build i/o requests of the maximum size for the block device in question. It also reduces the memory required for flushing the log, which can be very useful in low memory situations. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2012-04-24GFS2: Use variable rather than qa to determine if unstuff necessaryBob Peterson
In the future, the qadata structure will be eliminated and merged back in with the block reservation structure, after we extend the lifespan of that.

2012-04-24GFS2: Change variable blk to biblkBob Peterson
In the resource group code, we have no less than three different kinds of block references: block relative to the file system (u64), block relative to the rgrp (u32), and block relative to the bitmap.

2012-04-24GFS2: Drop "pull" argument from log_write_header()Steven Whitehouse
The "pull" argument to log_write_header() is only used for debug purposes and it is not really needed any more. There are other tests for this particular problem, so I think we can dispose of it in order to simplify the code. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2012-04-24GFS2: Instruct DLM to avoid queue convert slowdownBob Peterson
This patch instructs DLM to prevent an "in place" conversion, where the lock just stays on the granted queue, and instead forces the conversion to the back of the convert queue. This is done on upward conversions only. This is useful in cases where, for example, a lock is frequently needed in PR on one node, but another node needs it temporarily in EX to update it. This may happen, for example, when the rindex is being updated by gfs2_grow. The gfs2_grow needs to have the lock in EX, but the other nodes need to re-read it to retrieve the updates. The glock is already granted in PR on the non-growing nodes, so this prevents them from continually re-granting the lock in PR, and forces the EX from gfs2_grow to go through.

2012-04-10GFS2: Allow caching of rindex glockBob Peterson
This patch allows caching of the rindex glock. We were previously setting the GL_NOCACHE bit when the glock was released. That forced the rindex inode to be invalidated, which caused us to re-read rindex at the next access. However, it caused the glock to be unnecessarily bounced around the cluster. This patch allows the glock to remain cached, but it still causes the rindex to be re-read once it has been written to by gfs2_grow.

2012-03-09GFS2: call gfs2_write_alloc_required for each chunkBenjamin Marzinski
gfs2_fallocate was calling gfs2_write_alloc_required() once at the start of the function. This caused problems since gfs2_write_alloc_required used a long unsigned int for the len, but gfs2_fallocate could allocate a much larger amount. This patch will move the call into the loop where the chunks are actually allocated and zeroed out. This will keep the allocation size under the limit, and also allow gfs2_fallocate to quickly skip over sections of the file that are already completely allocated. fallcate_chunk was also not correctly setting the file size. It was using the len veriable to find the last block written to, but by the time it was setting the size, the len variable had already been decremented to 0.
