From f057f6cdf64175db1151b1f5d110e29904f119a1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Steven Whitehouse Date: Mon, 12 Jan 2009 10:43:39 +0000 Subject: GFS2: Merge lock_dlm module into GFS2 This is the big patch that I've been working on for some time now. There are many reasons for wanting to make this change such as: o Reducing overhead by eliminating duplicated fields between structures o Simplifcation of the code (reduces the code size by a fair bit) o The locking interface is now the DLM interface itself as proposed some time ago. o Fewer lookups of glocks when processing replies from the DLM o Fewer memory allocations/deallocations for each glock o Scope to do further optimisations in the future (but this patch is more than big enough for now!) Please note that (a) this patch relates to the lock_dlm module and not the DLM itself, that is still a separate module; and (b) that we retain the ability to build GFS2 as a standalone single node filesystem with out requiring the DLM. This patch needs a lot of testing, hence my keeping it I restarted my -git tree after the last merge window. That way, this has the maximum exposure before its merged. This is (modulo a few minor bug fixes) the same patch that I've been posting on and off the the last three months and its passed a number of different tests so far.
