2006-03-31[GFS2] Update GFS2 for the recent pull from LinusSteven Whitehouse
Some interfaces have changed. In particular one of the posix locking functions has changed prototype, along with the address space operation invalidatepage and the block getting callback to the direct IO function. In addition add the splice file operations. These will need to be updated to support AOP_TRUNCATED_PAGE before they will be of much use to us. 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>
2006-02-15[GFS2] Fix a case where we didn't get unstuffing rightSteven Whitehouse
There was a bug in the unstuffing logic which caused a crash under certain circumstances. This is now fixed. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2006-02-15[GFS2] Fix for lock recursion problem for internal filesSteven Whitehouse
Two internal files which are read through the gfs2_internal_read() routine were already locked when the routine was called and this do not need locking at the redapages level. This patch introduces a struct file which is used as a sentinal so that readpage will only perform locking in the case that the struct file passed to it is _not_ equal to this sentinal. Since the comments in the generic kernel code indicate that the struct file will never be used for anything other than passing straight through to readpage(), this should be ok.

2006-02-14[GFS2] Put back O_DIRECT supportSteven Whitehouse
This patch adds back O_DIRECT support with various caveats attached: 1. Journaled data can be read via O_DIRECT since its now the same on disk format as normal data files. 2. Journaled data writes with O_DIRECT will be failed sliently back to normal writes (should we really do this I wonder or should we return an error instead?) 3. Stuffed files will be failed back to normal buffered I/O 4. All the usual corner cases (write beyond current end of file, write to an unallocated block) will also revert to normal buffered I/O. The I/O path is slightly odd as reads arrive at the page cache layer with the lock for the file already held, but writes arrive unlocked. 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>
2006-01-31[GFS2] Update truncate function (shrinking partial blocks)Steven Whitehouse
Update the function in GFS2 which deals with truncation of partial blocks. Some of the code is "borrowed" from ext3 since it appears to give a good model of how to do this operation. The function is renamed gfs2_block_truncate_page accordingly. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

2006-01-30[GFS2] Rename get_block and make it externSteven Whitehouse
This renames get_block to gfs2_get_block and makes it accessible from outside ops_address.c. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2006-01-18[GFS2] Remove gfs2_databuf in favour of gfs2_bufdata structureSteven Whitehouse
Removing the gfs2_databuf structure and using gfs2_bufdata instead is a step towards allowing journaling of data without requiring the metadata header on each journaled block. The idea is to merge the code paths for ordered data with that of journaled data, with the log operations in lops.c tacking account of the different types of buffers as they are presented to it. Largely the code path for metadata will be similar too, but obviously through a different set of log operations. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2006-01-18[GFS2] Add an additional argument to gfs2_trans_add_bh()Steven Whitehouse
This adds an extra argument to gfs2_trans_add_bh() to indicate whether the bh being added to the transaction is metadata or data. Its currently unused since all existing callers set it to 1 (metadata) but following patches will make use of it. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
