2008-01-25[GFS2] remove unnecessary permission checksRyan O'Hara
Remove read/write permission() checks from xattr operations. VFS layer is already handling permission for xattrs via the xattr_permission() call, so there is no need for gfs2 to check permissions. Futhermore, using permission() for SELinux xattrs ops is incorrect. Signed-off-by: Ryan O'Hara <rohara@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2008-01-25[GFS2] Fix runtime issue with UP kernelsFabio Massimo Di Nitto
The issue is indeed UP vs SMP and it is totally random. spin_is_locked() is a bad assertion because there is no correct answer on UP. on UP spin_is_locked() has to return either one value or another, always. This means that in my setup I am lucky enough to trigger the issue and your you are lucky enough not to. the patch in attachment removes the bogus calls to BUG_ON and according to David (in CC and thanks for the long explanation on the problem) we can rely upon things like lockdep to find problem that might be trying to catch.

2008-01-25[GFS2] Check for installation of mount helpers for DLM mountsFabio Massimo Di Nitto
The patch is a fix to abort mount if the mount.gfs* and possible umount.* are missing from /sbin. While we do what we can to guarantee that they are installed properly in userland (CVS HEAD), we want to make sure that mount still aborts properly. The only sign of missing helpers is that lock_dlm will receive no mount options at all. According to David the problem does not exist for lock_nolock as the helpers are not required. The patch has been tested for both gfs and gfs2 and it works as expected. The lack of mount.gfs* will generate an error that is propagated to mount: oot@node1:~# mount -t gfs2 /dev/nbd2 /mnt/ mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/nbd2, missing codepage or helper program, or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so [ 3513.303346] GFS2: fsid=: Trying to join cluster "lock_dlm", "gutsy:gfs2" [ 3513.304546] DLM/GFS2/GFS ERROR: (u)mount helpers are not installed properly! [ 3513.306290] GFS2: fsid=: can't mount proto=lock_dlm, table=gutsy:gfs2, hostdata= You might want to notice that it will also avoid mount to hang or fail silently or with strange errors that will require the cluster to reboot/restart before you can actually mount the filesystem again.

2008-01-25[GFS2] Don't periodically update the jindexSteven Whitehouse
We only care about the content of the jindex in two cases, one is when we mount the fs and the other is when we need to recover another journal. In both cases we have to update the jindex anyway, so there is no point in updating it periodically between times, so this removes it to simplify gfs2_logd. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2008-01-25[GFS2] Move gfs2_logd into log.cSteven Whitehouse
This means that we can mark gfs2_ail1_empty static and prepares the way for further changes. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2008-01-25[GFS2] Use atomic_t for journal free blocks counterSteven Whitehouse
This patch changes the counter which keeps track of the free blocks in the journal to an atomic_t in preparation for the following patch which will update the log reservation code. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2008-01-25[GFS2] Don't add glocks to the journalSteven Whitehouse
The only reason for adding glocks to the journal was to keep track of which locks required a log flush prior to release. We add a flag to the glock to allow this check to be made in a simpler way. This reduces the size of a glock (by 12 bytes on i386, 24 on x86_64) and means that we can avoid extra work during the journal flush. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2008-01-25[GFS2] check kthread_should_stop when waitingDavid Teigland
Use wait_event_interruptible() in the lock_dlm thread instead of an open coded equivalent, and include a kthread_should_stop() check in the wait test so we don't miss a kthread_stop(). Signed-off-by: David Teigland <teigland@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2008-01-25[GFS2] Given device ID rather than s_id in "id" sysfs fileBob Peterson
This patch changes the /sys/fs/gfs2/<s_id>/id file to give the device id "major:minor" rather than the s_id. That enables gfs2_tool to match devices properly (by id, not name) when locating the tuning files. Signed-off-by: Bob Peterson <rpeterso@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2008-01-25[GFS2] Remove flags no longer requiredSteven Whitehouse
The HIF_MUTEX and HIF_PROMOTE flags were set on the glock holders depending upon which of the two waiters lists they were going to be queued upon. They were then tested when the holders were taken off the lists to ensure that the right type of holder was being dequeued. Since we are already using separate lists, there doesn't seem a lot of point having these flags as well, and since setting them and testing them is in the fast path for locking and unlocking glock, this patch removes them. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2008-01-25[GFS2] Reorder writeback for glock syncSteven Whitehouse
Previously we were doing (write data, wait for data, write metadata, wait for metadata). After this patch we so (write metadata, write data, wait for data, wait for metadata) which should be more efficient. Also I noticed that the drop_bh and xmote_bh functions were almost identical. In fact the only difference was a single test, and that test is such that in the drop_bh case, it would always evaluate to the correct result. As such we can use the xmote_bh functions in all the places where we were using the drop_bh function and remove the drop_bh functions. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2008-01-25[GFS2] Add sync_page to metadata address space operationsSteven Whitehouse
This set of address space operations was missing a sync_page operation. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2008-01-25[GFS2] Remove "reclaim limit"Steven Whitehouse
This call to reclaim glocks is not needed, and in particular we don't want it in the fast path for locking glocks. The limit was entirely arbitrary anyway and we can't expect users to adjust things like this, the remaining code will do the right thing on its own. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

2008-01-25[GFS2] Use correct include file in ops_address.cSteven Whitehouse
Something changed in the upstream kernel, and it needs this one-liner to allow ops_address.c to build. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2008-01-25[GFS2] Don't hold page lock when starting transactionSteven Whitehouse
This is an addendum to the new AOPs work which moves the point at which we take the page lock so that we don't get it until the last possible moment. This resolves a conflict between starting transactions and the page lock. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2008-01-25[GFS2] Add writepages for GFS2 jdataSteven Whitehouse
This patch resolves a lock ordering issue where we had been getting a transaction lock in the wrong order with respect to the page lock. By using writepages rather than just writepage, it is then possible to start a transaction before locking the page, and thus matching the locking order elsewhere in the code. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2008-01-25[GFS2] Split gfs2_writepage into three casesSteven Whitehouse
This patch splits gfs2_writepage into separate functions for each of the three cases: writeback, ordered and journalled. As a result it becomes a lot easier to see what each one is doing. The common code is moved into gfs2_writepage_common. This fixes a performance bug where we were doing more work than strictly required in the ordered write case. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2008-01-25[GFS2] Introduce gfs2_set_aops()Steven Whitehouse
Just like ext3 we now have three sets of address space operations to cover the cases of writeback, ordered and journalled data writes. This means that the individual operations can now become less complicated as we are able to remove some of the tests for file data mode from the code. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2008-01-25[GFS2] Add gfs2_is_writeback()Steven Whitehouse
This adds a function "gfs2_is_writeback()" along the lines of the existing "gfs2_is_jdata()" in order to clean up the code and make the various tests for the inode mode more obvious. It also fixes the PageChecked() logic where we were resetting the flag too early in the case of an error path. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2008-01-25[GFS2] Remove unused field in struct gfs2_inodeSteven Whitehouse
Removes a field that is not used. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2008-01-25[GFS2] Remove useless i_cache from inodesSteven Whitehouse
The i_cache was designed to keep references to the indirect blocks used during block mapping so that they didn't have to be looked up continually. The idea failed because there are too many places where the i_cache needs to be freed, and this has in the past been the cause of many bugs. In addition there was no performance benefit being gained since the disk blocks in question were cached anyway. So this patch removes it in order to simplify the code to prepare for other changes which would otherwise have had to add further support for this feature. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2008-01-25[GFS2] Use ->page_mkwrite() for mmap()Steven Whitehouse
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. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2008-01-25[GFS2] Clean up internal read functionSteven Whitehouse
As requested by Christoph, this patch cleans up GFS2's internal read function so that it no longer uses the do_generic_mapping_read function. 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. One function has the locking and the other function has the rest of the logic. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com> Cc: Christoph Hellwig <hch@infradead.org>
2008-01-25[GFS2] Handle multiple glock demote requestsWendy Cheng
Fix a race condition where multiple glock demote requests are sent to a node back-to-back. This patch does a check inside handle_callback() to see whether a demote request is in progress. If true, it sets a flag to make sure run_queue() will loop again to handle the new request, instead of erronously setting gl_demote_state to a different state. Signed-off-by: S.

2008-01-24spi: omap2_mcspi PIO RX fixKalle Valo
Before transmission of the last word in PIO RX_ONLY mode rx+tx mode is enabled: /* prevent last RX_ONLY read from triggering * more word i/o: switch to rx+tx */ if (c == 0 && tx == NULL) mcspi_write_cs_reg(spi, OMAP2_MCSPI_CHCONF0, l); But because c is decremented after the test, c will never be zero and rx+tx will not be enabled. This breaks RX_ONLY mode PIO transfers. Fix it by decrementing c in the beginning of the various I/O loops.

2008-01-24fix hugepages leak due to pagetable page sharingLarry Woodman
The shared page table code for hugetlb memory on x86 and x86_64 is causing a leak. When a user of hugepages exits using this code the system leaks some of the hugepages. ------------------------------------------------------- Part of /proc/meminfo just before database startup: HugePages_Total: 5500 HugePages_Free: 5500 HugePages_Rsvd: 0 Hugepagesize: 2048 kB Just before shutdown: HugePages_Total: 5500 HugePages_Free: 4475 HugePages_Rsvd: 0 Hugepagesize: 2048 kB After shutdown: HugePages_Total: 5500 HugePages_Free: 4988 HugePages_Rsvd: 0 Hugepagesize: 2048 kB ---------------------------------------------------------- The problem occurs durring a fork, in copy_hugetlb_page_range(). It locates the dst_pte using huge_pte_alloc(). Since huge_pte_alloc() calls huge_pmd_share() it will share the pmd page if can, yet the main loop in copy_hugetlb_page_range() does a get_page() on every hugepage. This is a violation of the shared hugepmd pagetable protocol and creates additional referenced to the hugepages causing a leak when the unmap of the VMA occurs. We can skip the entire replication of the ptes when the hugepage pagetables are shared. The attached patch skips copying the ptes and the get_page() calls if the hugetlbpage pagetable is shared.

2008-01-24lockdep: fix kernel crash on module unloadArjan van de Ven
Michael Wu noticed in his lkml post at http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=119396182726091&w=2 that certain wireless drivers ended up having their name in module memory, which would then crash the kernel on module unload. The patch he proposed was a bit clumsy in that it increased the size of a lockdep entry significantly; the patch below tries another approach, it checks, on module teardown, if the name of a class is in module space and then zaps the class. This is very similar to what we already do with keys that are in module space.
