2009-11-30dlm: always use GFP_NOFSDavid Teigland
Replace all GFP_KERNEL and ls_allocation with GFP_NOFS. ls_allocation would be GFP_KERNEL for userland lockspaces and GFP_NOFS for file system lockspaces. It was discovered that any lockspaces on the system can affect all others by triggering memory reclaim in the file system which could in turn call back into the dlm to acquire locks, deadlocking dlm threads that were shared by all lockspaces, like dlm_recv.

2009-07-12genetlink: make netns awareJohannes Berg
This makes generic netlink network namespace aware. No generic netlink families except for the controller family are made namespace aware, they need to be checked one by one and then set the family->netnsok member to true. A new function genlmsg_multicast_netns() is introduced to allow sending a multicast message in a given namespace, for example when it applies to an object that lives in that namespace, a new function genlmsg_multicast_allns() to send a message to all network namespaces (for objects that do not have an associated netns). The function genlmsg_multicast() is changed to multicast the message in just init_net, which is currently correct for all generic netlink families since they only work in init_net right now. Some will later want to work in all net namespaces because they do not care about the netns at all -- those will have to be converted to use one of the new functions genlmsg_multicast_allns() or genlmsg_multicast_netns() whenever they are made netns aware in some way. After this patch families can easily decide whether or not they should be available in all net namespaces. Many genl families us it for objects not related to networking and should therefore be available in all namespaces, but that will have to be done on a per family basis. Note that this doesn't touch on the checkpoint/restart problem where network namespaces could be used, genl families and multicast groups are numbered globally and I see no easy way of changing that, especially since it must be possible to multicast to all network namespaces for those families that do not care about netns.

2008-12-23dlm: change lock time stampingDavid Teigland
Use ktime instead of jiffies for timestamping lkb's. Also stamp the time on every lkb whenever it's added to a resource queue, instead of just stamping locks subject to timeouts. This will allow us to use timestamps more widely for debugging all locks. Signed-off-by: David Teigland <teigland@redhat.com>

Removed the section mismatch message: WARNING: fs/dlm/dlm.o(.init.text+0x132): Section mismatch in reference from the function init_module() to the function .exit.text:dlm_netlink_exit() Since dlm_netlink_exit() is called in the init_dlm() error handling, the __exit annotation has been removed.

2007-07-09[DLM] timeout fixesDavid Teigland
Various fixes related to the new timeout feature: - add_timeout() missed setting TIMEWARN flag on lkb's when the TIMEOUT flag was already set - clear_proc_locks should remove a dead process's locks from the timeout list - the end-of-life calculation for user locks needs to consider that ETIMEDOUT is equivalent to -DLM_ECANCEL - make initial default timewarn_cs config value visible in configfs - change bit position of TIMEOUT_CANCEL flag so it's not copied to a remote master node - set timestamp on remote lkb's so a lock dump will display the time they've been waiting Signed-off-by: David Teigland <teigland@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2007-07-09[DLM] add lock timeouts and warnings [2/6]David Teigland
New features: lock timeouts and time warnings. If the DLM_LKF_TIMEOUT flag is set, then the request/conversion will be canceled after waiting the specified number of centiseconds (specified per lock). This feature is only available for locks requested through libdlm (can be enabled for kernel dlm users if there's a use for it.) If the new DLM_LSFL_TIMEWARN flag is set when creating the lockspace, then a warning message will be sent to userspace (using genetlink) after a request/conversion has been waiting for a given number of centiseconds (configurable per node). The time warnings will be used in the future to do deadlock detection in userspace. Signed-off-by: David Teigland <teigland@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
