2006-07-11[GFS2] Add generation numberSteven Whitehouse
This adds a generation number for the eventual use of NFS to the ondisk inode. Its backward compatible with the current code since it doesn't really matter what the generation number is to start with, and indeed since its set to zero, due to it being taken from padding in both the inode and rgrp header, it should be fine. The eventual plan is to use this rather than no_formal_ino in the NFS filehandles. At that point no_formal_ino will be unused. At the same time we also add a releasepages call back to the "normal" address space for gfs2 inodes. Also I've removed a one-linrer function thats not required any more.

2006-06-14[GFS2] Fix unlinked file handlingSteven Whitehouse
This patch fixes the way we have been dealing with unlinked, but still open files. It removes all limits (other than memory for inodes, as per every other filesystem) on numbers of these which we can support on GFS2. It also means that (like other fs) its the responsibility of the last process to close the file to deallocate the storage, rather than the person who did the unlinking. Note that with GFS2, those two events might take place on different nodes. Also there are a number of other changes: o We use the Linux inode subsystem as it was intended to be used, wrt allocating GFS2 inodes o The Linux inode cache is now the point which we use for local enforcement of only holding one copy of the inode in core at once (previous to this we used the glock layer). o We no longer use the unlinked "special" file. We just ignore it completely. This makes unlinking more efficient. o We now use the 4th block allocation state. The previously unused state is used to track unlinked but still open inodes. o gfs2_inoded is no longer needed o Several fields are now no longer needed (and removed) from the in core struct gfs2_inode o Several fields are no longer needed (and removed) from the in core superblock There are a number of future possible optimisations and clean ups which have been made possible by this patch.

2006-05-12[GFS2] Fix attributes setting logicSteven Whitehouse
The attributes logic for immutable was wrong so that there was not way to remove this attribute once set. This fixes the bug. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2006-04-25[GFS2] Remove inherited flags from exported flags.Steven Whitehouse
We don't need the inherited flags since this action can be implied by setting the flags on directories where they wouldn't otherwise make sense. It reduces the number of extra flags by two. Also updated the list of flags to take account of one extra ext2/3 flag. Cc: Andreas Dilger <adilger@clusterfs.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
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.

2006-04-04[GFS2] Finish off ioctl supportSteven Whitehouse

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>
2006-03-31[GFS2] Update ioctl() to new interfaceSteven Whitehouse
This is designed as a fs independent way to set flags on a particular inode. The values of the ioctl() and flags are designed to be identical to the ext2/3 values. Assuming that this plan is acceptable to people in general, the plan is to then move other fs across to using the same set of #defines, etc. 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.

2006-03-21[GFS2] Remove ioctl supportSteven Whitehouse
The various flags on inodes will in future be set and queried via the extended attributes interface, so this interface is no longer required. 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 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>
