* Fix a minor bug in the previous patchSteven Whitehouse2009-03-241-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | The logic requires that we mark the glock dirty in page_mkwrite otherwise we might not flush correctly in the case that no allocation was required in the process of dirying the page. Also we need to set the shared write flag early for the same reason. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
* GFS2: Clean up of glops.cSteven Whitehouse2009-03-241-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This cleans up a number of bits of code mostly based in glops.c. A couple of simple functions have been merged into the callers to make it more obvious what is going on, the mysterious raising of i_writecount around the truncate_inode_pages() call has been removed. The meta_go_* operations have been renamed rgrp_go_* since that is the only lock type that they are used with. The unused argument of gfs2_read_sb has been removed. Also a bug has been fixed where a check for the rindex inode was in the wrong callback. More comments are added, and the debugging code is improved too.

* GFS2: Merge lock_dlm module into GFS2Steven Whitehouse2009-03-241-52/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* GFS2: Fix typo in gfs_page_mkwrite()Benjamin Marzinski2009-01-071-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | There is a typo in gfs2_page_mkwrite() gfs2_write_alloc_required() expects pos to be the offset in bytes. However, instead of the page index being shifted by by PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT, it was shifted by (PAGE_CACHE_SIZE - inode->i_blkbits). This patch simply shifts the page index by the proper amount.

* GFS2: Banish struct gfs2_dinode_hostSteven Whitehouse2009-01-051-9/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | The final field in gfs2_dinode_host was the i_flags field. Thats renamed to i_diskflags in order to avoid confusion with the existing inode flags, and moved into the inode proper at a suitable location to avoid creating a "hole". At that point struct gfs2_dinode_host is no longer needed and as promised (quite some time ago!) it can now be removed completely. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

* GFS2: high time to take some time over atimeSteven Whitehouse2008-09-181-8/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Until now, we've used the same scheme as GFS1 for atime. This has failed since atime is a per vfsmnt flag, not a per fs flag and as such the "noatime" flag was not getting passed down to the filesystems. This patch removes all the "special casing" around atime updates and we simply use the VFS's atime code. The net result is that GFS2 will now support all the same atime related mount options of any other filesystem on a per-vfsmnt basis. We do lose the "lazy atime" updates, but we gain "relatime". We could add lazy atime to the VFS at a later date, if there is a requirement for that variant still - I suspect relatime will be enough. Also we lose about 100 lines of code after this patch has been applied, and I have a suspicion that it will speed things up a bit, even when atime is "on". So it seems like a nice clean up as well. From a user perspective, everything stays the same except the loss of the per-fs atime quantum tweekable (ought to be per-vfsmnt at the very least, and to be honest I don't think anybody ever used it) and that a number of options which were ignored before now work correctly. Please let me know if you've got any comments. I'm pushing this out early so that you can all see what my plans are. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | GFS2 calls permission() to verify permissions after locks on the files have been taken. For this it's sufficient to call gfs2_permission() instead. This results in the following changes: - IS_RDONLY() check is not performed - IS_IMMUTABLE() check is not performed - devcgroup_inode_permission() is not called - security_inode_permission() is not called IS_RDONLY() should be unnecessary anyway, as the per-mount read-only flag should provide protection against read-only remounts during operations. do_gfs2_set_flags() has been fixed to perform mnt_want_write()/mnt_drop_write() to protect against remounting read-only. IS_IMMUTABLE has been added to gfs2_permission() Repeating the security checks seems to be pointless, as they don't normally change, and if they do, it's independent of the filesystem state.

| * [GFS2] Clean up the glock coreSteven Whitehouse2008-06-271-5/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com> Cc: Bob Peterson <rpeterso@redhat.com>

I changed the file systems who don't use the BKL for anything (CIFS, GFS) to call it directly. NCPFS and SMBFS and NFS take the BKL, but explicitely in their own source now. I moved them all over in a single patch to avoid unbisectable sections. Open problem: 32bit kernels can corrupt fpos because its modification is not atomic, but they can do that anyways because there's other paths who modify it without BKL. Do we need a special lock for the pos/f_version = 0 checks?

| | | | | | | | | | | | This patch streamlines the quota checking in the "no quota" case by making the check inline in the calling function, thus reducing the number of function calls. Eventually we might be able to remove the checks from the gfs2_quota_lock() and gfs2_quota_check() functions, but currently we can't as there are a very few places in the code which need to call these functions directly still.

By moving the functions to the files where they are being used, they can be marked static and also this will usually result in them being inlined since they are often only used from one point in the code. A couple of really trivial functions have been inlined by hand into the function which called them as it makes the code clearer to do that. We also gain from one fewer function call in the glock lock and unlock paths. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
* [GFS2] Fix page_mkwrite truncation race pathSteven Whitehouse2008-01-251-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | There was a bug in the truncation/invalidation race path for ->page_mkwrite for gfs2. It ought to return 0 so that the effect is the same as if the page was truncated at any of the other points at which the page_lock is dropped. This will result in the restart of the whole page fault path. If it was due to a real truncation (as opposed to an invalidate because we let a glock go) then the ->fault path will pick that up when it gets called again.

* [GFS2] Reduce inode size by moving i_alloc out of lineSteven Whitehouse2008-01-251-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is possible to reduce the size of GFS2 inodes by taking the i_alloc structure out of the gfs2_inode. This patch allocates the i_alloc structure whenever its needed, and frees it afterward. This decreases the amount of low memory we use at the expense of requiring a memory allocation for each page or partial page that we write. A quick test with postmark shows that the overhead is not measurable and I also note that OCFS2 use the same approach. In the future I'd like to solve the problem by shrinking down the size of the members of the i_alloc structure, but for now, this reduces the immediate problem of using too much low-memory on x86 and doesn't add too much overhead.

* [GFS2] Remove function gfs2_get_blockBob Peterson2008-01-251-1/+1

By reversing the parameters, gfs2_block_map() may be called directly and function gfs2_get_block may be eliminated altogether. Since this function is done for every block operation, this streamlines the code and makes it a little bit more efficient.

* [GFS2] Use ->page_mkwrite() for mmap()Steven Whitehouse2008-01-251-10/+121
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This cleans up the mmap() code path for GFS2 by implementing the page_mkwrite function for GFS2. We are thus able to use the generic filemap_fault function for our ->fault() implementation. This now means that shared writable mappings will be much more efficiently shared across the cluster if there is a reasonable proportion of read activity (the greater proportion, the better). As a side effect, it also reduces the size of the code, removes special cases from readpage and readpages, and makes the code path easier to follow.

This function is obsolete and GFS2 is the last user of it. As a side effect the internal read code gets smaller and easier to read and gfs2_readpage is split into two.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds a new flag to the gfs2_holder structure GL_FLOCK. It is set on holders of glocks representing flocks. This flag is checked in add_to_queue() and a process is permitted to queue more than one holder onto a glock if it is set. This solves the issue of a process not being able to do multiple flocks on the same file. Through a single descriptor, a process can now promote and demote flocks. Through multiple descriptors a process can now queue multiple flocks on the same file. There's still the problem of a process deadlocking itself (because gfs2 blocking locks are not interruptible) by queueing incompatible deadlock.

This is not quite the way he wanted it yet, but that's changed in the next patch (which requires changes to arch code). This means we no longer set VM_CAN_INVALIDATE in the vma in order to say that a page is locked which requires filemap_nopage to go away (because we can no longer remain backward compatible without that flag), but we were going to do that anyway. struct fault_data is renamed to struct vm_fault as Linus asked. address is now a void __user * that we should firmly encourage drivers not to use without really good reason.

* mm: merge populate and nopage into fault (fixes nonlinear)Nick Piggin2007-07-191-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Nonlinear mappings are (AFAIKS) simply a virtual memory concept that encodes the virtual address -> file offset differently from linear mappings. ->populate is a layering violation because the filesystem/pagecache code should need to know anything about the virtual memory mapping. The hitch here is that the ->nopage handler didn't pass down enough information (ie. pgoff). But it is more logical to pass pgoff rather than have the ->nopage function calculate it itself anyway (because that's a similar layering violation). Having the populate handler install the pte itself is likewise a nasty thing to be doing. This patch introduces a new fault handler that replaces ->nopage and ->populate and (later) ->nopfn. Most of the old mechanism is still in place so there is a lot of duplication and nice cleanups that can be removed if everyone switches over. The rationale for doing this in the first place is that nonlinear mappings are subject to the pagefault vs invalidate/truncate race too, and it seemed stupid to duplicate the synchronisation logic rather than just consolidate the two. After this patch, MAP_NONBLOCK no longer sets up ptes for pages present in pagecache. Seems like a fringe functionality anyway. NOPAGE_REFAULT is removed. This should be implemented with ->fault, and no users have hit mainline yet.

* mm: fix fault vs invalidate race for linear mappingsNick Piggin2007-07-191-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix the race between invalidate_inode_pages and do_no_page. Andrea Arcangeli identified a subtle race between invalidation of pages from pagecache with userspace mappings, and do_no_page. The issue is that invalidation has to shoot down all mappings to the page, before it can be discarded from the pagecache. Between shooting down ptes to a particular page, and actually dropping the struct page from the pagecache, do_no_page from any process might fault on that page and establish a new mapping to the page just before it gets discarded from the pagecache. The most common case where such invalidation is used is in file truncation. This case was catered for by doing a sort of open-coded seqlock between the file's i_size, and its truncate_count. Truncation will decrease i_size, then increment truncate_count before unmapping userspace pages; do_no_page will read truncate_count, then find the page if it is within i_size, and then check truncate_count under the page table lock and back out and retry if it had subsequently been changed (ptl will serialise against unmapping, and ensure a potentially updated truncate_count is actually visible). Complexity and documentation issues aside, the locking protocol fails in the case where we would like to invalidate pagecache inside i_size. do_no_page can come in anytime and filemap_nopage is not aware of the invalidation in progress (as it is when it is outside i_size). The end result is that dangling (->mapping == NULL) pages that appear to be from a particular file may be mapped into userspace with nonsense data. Valid mappings to the same place will see a different page. Andrea implemented two working fixes, one using a real seqlock, another using a page->flags bit. He also proposed using the page lock in do_no_page, but that was initially considered too heavyweight. However, it is not a global or per-file lock, and the page cacheline is modified in do_no_page to increment _count and _mapcount anyway, so a further modification should not be a large performance hit. Scalability is not an issue. This patch implements this latter approach. ->nopage implementations return with the page locked if it is possible for their underlying file to be invalidated (in that case, they must set a special vm_flags bit to indicate so). do_no_page only unlocks the page after setting up the mapping completely. invalidation is excluded because it holds the page lock during invalidation of each page (and ensures that the page is not mapped while holding the lock). This also allows significant simplifications in do_no_page, because we have the page locked in the right place in the pagecache from the start.

| * [GFS2] Clean up inode number handlingSteven Whitehouse2007-07-091-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch cleans up the inode number handling code. The main difference is that instead of looking up the inodes using a struct gfs2_inum_host we now use just the no_addr member of this structure. The tests relating to no_formal_ino can then be done by the calling code. This has advantages in that we want to do different things in different code paths if the no_formal_ino doesn't match. In the NFS patch we want to return -ESTALE, but in the ->lookup() path, its a bug in the fs if the no_formal_ino doesn't match and thus we can withdraw in this case. In order to later fix bz #201012, we need to be able to look up an inode without knowing no_formal_ino, as the only information that is known to us is the on-disk location of the inode in question. This patch will also help us to fix bz #236099 at a later date by cleaning up a lot of the code in that area. There are no user visible changes as a result of this patch and there are no changes to the on-disk format either. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

* [PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.hTim Schmielau2007-02-141-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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).

* [GFS2] Clean up/speed up readdirSteven Whitehouse2007-02-051-51/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This removes the extra filldir callback which gfs2 was using to enclose an attempt at readahead for inodes during readdir. The code was too complicated and also hurts performance badly in the case that the getdents64/readdir call isn't being followed by stat() and it wasn't even getting it right all the time when it was. As a result, on my test box an "ls" of a directory containing 250000 files fell from about 7mins (freshly mounted, so nothing cached) to between about 15 to 25 seconds. When the directory content was cached, the time taken fell from about 3mins to about 4 or 5 seconds. Interestingly in the cached case, running "ls -l" once reduced the time taken for subsequent runs of "ls" to about 6 secs even without this patch. Now it turns out that there was a special case of glocks being used for prefetching the metadata, but because of the timeouts for these locks (set to 10 secs) the metadata was being timed out before it was being used and this the prefetch code was constantly trying to prefetch the same data over and over. Calling "ls -l" meant that the inodes were brought into memory and once the inodes are cached, the glocks are not disposed of until the inodes are pushed out of the cache, thus extending the lifetime of the glocks, and thus bringing down the time for subsequent runs of "ls" considerably.

* [GFS2] Change gfs2_fsync() to use write_inode_now()Steven Whitehouse2006-12-071-5/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | This is a bit better than the previous version of gfs2_fsync() although it would be better still if we were able to call a function which only wrote the inode & metadata. Its no big deal though that this will potentially write the data as well since the VFS has already done that before calling gfs2_fsync(). I've also added a comment to explain whats going on here.

* [GFS2] Don't flush everything on fdatasyncSteven Whitehouse2006-11-301-3/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The gfs2_fsync() function was doing a journal flush on each and every call. While this is correct, its also a lot of overhead. This patch means that on fdatasync flushes we rely on the VFS to flush the data for us and we don't do a journal flush unless we really need to. We have to do a journal flush for stuffed files though because they have the data and the inode metadata in the same block. Journaled files also need a journal flush too of course.

* [GFS2] Remove unused function from inode.cSteven Whitehouse2006-11-301-1/+1
| | | | | | | | The gfs2_glock_nq_m_atime function is unused in so far as its only ever called with num_gh = 1, and this falls through to the gfs2_glock_nq_atime function, so we might as well call that directly. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
* [GFS2] Only set inode flags when requiredSteven Whitehouse2006-11-301-0/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | We were setting the inode flags from GFS2's flags far too often, even when they couldn't possibly have changed. This patch reduces the amount of flag setting going on so that we do it only when the inode is read in or when the flags have changed. The create case is covered by the "when the inode is read in" case. This also fixes a bug where we didn't set S_SYNC correctly. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

* [GFS2] Change argument of gfs2_dinode_outSteven Whitehouse2006-11-301-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | Everywhere this was called, a struct gfs2_inode was available, but despite that, it was always called with a struct gfs2_dinode as an argument. By making this change it paves the way to start eliminating fields duplicated between the kernel's struct inode and the struct gfs2_dinode. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
