2006-04-07[GFS2] Fix a ref count bug and other clean upsSteven Whitehouse
This fixes a ref count bug that sometimes showed up a umount time (causing it to hang) but it otherwise mostly harmless. At the same time there are some clean ups including making the log operations structures const, moving a memory allocation so that its not done in the fast path of checking to see if there is an outstanding transaction related to a particular glock. Removes the sd_log_wrap varaible which was updated, but never actually used anywhere. Updates the gfs2 ioctl() to run without the kernel lock (which it never needed anyway). Removes the "invalidate inodes" loop from GFS2's put_super routine. This is done in kill super anyway so we don't need to do it here. The loop was also bogus in that if there are any inodes "stuck" at this point its a bug and we need to know about it rather than hide it by hanging forever.

2006-03-30[GFS] Fix bug in endian conversion for metadata headerSteven Whitehouse
In some cases 16 bit functions were being used rather than 32 bit functions. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2006-03-29[GFS2] Update locking in log.cSteven Whitehouse
Replace the lock_for_trans()/lock_for_flush() functions with an rwsem. In fact the sd_log_flush_lock becomes an rwsem (the write part of it) and is extended slightly to cover everything that the lock_for_flush() used to cover. The read part of the lock is instead of lock_for_trans(). This corrects the races in the original code and reduces the code size. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2006-03-28[GFS2] Further updates to dir and logging codeSteven Whitehouse
This reduces the size of the directory code by about 3k and gets readdir() to use the functions which were introduced in the previous directory code update. Two memory allocations are merged into one. Eliminates zeroing of some buffers which were never used before they were initialised by other data. There is still scope for further improvement in the directory code. On the logging side, a hand created mutex has been replaced by a standard Linux mutex in the log allocation code.

2006-03-01[GFS2] Fix some bugsSteven Whitehouse
Fix a bug I introduced earlier with a kfree() and usage of a structure in the wrong order. Also try and get the counts of the journaled data buffers "more correct". Still some work to do in this area though. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2006-02-27[GFS2] Macros removal in gfs2.hSteven Whitehouse
As suggested by Pekka Enberg <penberg@cs.helsinki.fi>. The DIV_RU macro is renamed DIV_ROUND_UP and and moved to kernel.h The other macros are gone from gfs2.h as (although not requested by Pekka Enberg) are a number of included header file which are now included individually. The inode number comparison function is now an inline function. The DT2IF and IF2DT may be addressed in a future patch. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

2006-02-21[GFS2] Use mutices rather than semaphoresSteven Whitehouse
As well as a number of minor bug fixes, this patch changes GFS to use mutices rather than semaphores. This results in better information in case there are any locking problems. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2006-02-13[GFS2] Fix for root inode ref count bugSteven Whitehouse
Umount is now working correctly again. The bug was due to not getting an extra ref count when mounting the fs. We should have bumped it by two (once for the internal pointer to the root inode from the super block and once for the inode hanging off the dcache entry for root). Also this patch tidys up the code dealing with looking up and creating inodes. We now pass Linux inodes (with gfs2_inodes attached) rather than the other way around and this reduces code duplication in various places. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2006-02-08[GFS2] Make journaled data files identical to normal files on diskSteven Whitehouse
This is a very large patch, with a few still to be resolved issues so you might want to check out the previous head of the tree since this is known to be unstable. Fixes for the various bugs will be forthcoming shortly. This patch removes the special data format which has been used up till now for journaled data files. Directories still retain the old format so that they will remain on disk compatible with earlier releases. As a result you can now do the following with journaled data files: 1) mmap them 2) export them over NFS 3) convert to/from normal files whenever you want to (the zero length restriction is gone) In addition the level at which GFS' locking is done has changed for all files (since they all now use the page cache) such that the locking is done at the page cache level rather than the level of the fs operations. This should mean that things like loopback mounts and other things which touch the page cache directly should now work. Current known issues: 1. There is a lock mode inversion problem related to the resource group hold function which needs to be resolved. 2. Any significant amount of I/O causes an oops with an offset of hex 320 (NULL pointer dereference) which appears to be related to a journaled data buffer appearing on a list where it shouldn't be. 3. Direct I/O writes are disabled for the time being (will reappear later) 4. There is probably a deadlock between the page lock and GFS' locks under certain combinations of mmap and fs operation I/O. 5. Issue relating to ref counting on internally used inodes causes a hang on umount (discovered before this patch, and not fixed by it) 6. One part of the directory metadata is different from GFS1 and will need to be resolved before next release. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2006-01-18[GFS2] Change memory allocations to GFP_NOFSSteven Whitehouse
I'd like to be rid of these memory allocations entirely so far as is possible. For the moment though, mark them GFP_NOFS to make them less harmful. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
