2012-01-04dlm: add recovery callbacksDavid Teigland1-2/+2
These new callbacks notify the dlm user about lock recovery. GFS2, and possibly others, need to be aware of when the dlm will be doing lock recovery for a failed lockspace member. In the past, this coordination has been done between dlm and file system daemons in userspace, which then direct their kernel counterparts. These callbacks allow the same coordination directly, and more simply. Signed-off-by: David Teigland <teigland@redhat.com>

2011-11-22GFS2: Fix multi-block allocationSteven Whitehouse2-31/+36
Clean up gfs2_alloc_blocks so that it takes the full extent length rather than just the number of non-inode blocks as an argument. That will only make a difference in the inode allocation case for now. Also, this fixes the extent length handling around gfs2_alloc_extent() so that multi block allocations will work again. The rd_last_alloc block is set to the final block in the allocated extent (as per the update to i_goal, but referenced to a different start point). This also removes the dinode argument to rgblk_search() which is no longer used. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2011-11-22GFS2: decouple quota allocations from block allocationsBob Peterson13-181/+188

2011-11-21GFS2: move toward a generic multi-block allocatorBob Peterson6-39/+39
This patch is a revision of the one I previously posted. I tried to integrate all the suggestions Steve gave. The purpose of the patch is to change function gfs2_alloc_block (allocate either a dinode block or an extent of data blocks) to a more generic gfs2_alloc_blocks function that can allocate both a dinode _and_ an extent of data blocks in the same call. This will ultimately help us create a multi-block reservation scheme to reduce file fragmentation. This patch moves more toward a generic multi-block allocator that takes a pointer to the number of data blocks to allocate, plus whether or not to allocate a dinode. In theory, it could be called to allocate (1) a single dinode block, (2) a group of one or more data blocks, or (3) a dinode plus several data blocks.

2011-11-21GFS2: O_(D)SYNC support for fallocateSteven Whitehouse1-0/+5
Add sync of metadata after fallocate for O_SYNC files to ensure that we meet expectations for everything being on disk in this case. Unfortunately, the offset and len parameters are modified during the course of the fallocate function, so I've had to add a couple of new variables to call generic_write_sync() at the end. I know that potentially this will sync data as well within the range, but I think that is a fairly harmless side-effect overall, since we would not normally expect there to be any dirty data within the range in question.

2011-11-18GFS2: remove vestigial al_allocedBob Peterson2-3/+0
This patch removes the vestigial variable al_alloced from the gfs2_alloc structure. This is another baby step toward multi-block reservations. My next planned step is to decouple the quota variables from the gfs2_alloc structure so we can use a different method for allocations.

GFS2 functions gfs2_alloc_block and gfs2_alloc_di do basically the same things, with a few exceptions. This patch combines the two functions into a slightly more generic gfs2_alloc_block. Having one centralized block allocation function will reduce code redundancy and make it easier to implement multi-block reservations to reduce file fragmentation in the future.

2011-11-15GFS2: Add non-try locks back to get_local_rgrpBob Peterson1-3/+5
This upstream patch had what I believe is an unintended consequence: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/steve/gfs2-3.0-nmw.git;a=commitdiff;h=beca42486749c1538a5ed58fe9dcc9f26d428c93 The patch changed function get_local_rgrp such that it ONLY used TRY locks for RGRP searches. Prior to that patch, the code used TRY locks during the first loop, and if that was unsuccessful, it used normal blocking locks on subsequent searches. This patch changes it back to the old way.

2011-11-09GFS2: Fix very unlikley memory leak in ACL xattr codeSteven Whitehouse1-3/+4
This was spotted by automated code analysis. In case reading an ACL xattr failed (only likely to happen if there is an I/O error for example, and even then only with unstuffed xattrs, so pretty difficult to trigger) a small amount of memory could potentially be leaked. This patch adds a kfree to the error path, and also removes a test which is no longer required (gfs2_ea_get_copy always returns either a negative error, or a length) Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

2011-11-08GFS2: Add readahead to sequential directory traversalBob Peterson4-6/+57
This patch adds read-ahead capability to GFS2's directory hash table management. It greatly improves performance for some directory operations. For example: In one of my file systems that has 1000 directories, each of which has 1000 files, time to execute a recursive ls (time ls -fR /mnt/gfs2 > /dev/null) was reduced from 2m2.814s on a stock kernel to 0m45.938s.

2011-11-08GFS2: Fix up REQ flagsSteven Whitehouse4-5/+5
Christoph has split up REQ_PRIO from REQ_META. That means that we can drop REQ_PRIO from places where is it not needed. I'm not at all sure that the combination WRITE_FLUSH_FUA | REQ_PRIO makes any kind of sense, anyway. In addition, I've added REQ_META to one place in the code where it was missing. REQ_PRIO has been left for read/writes triggered by glock acquisition and writeback only. We can adjust it again if required, but these are the most important points from a performance perspective.

2011-10-28vfs: do (nearly) lockless generic_file_llseekAndi Kleen1-2/+2
The i_mutex lock use of generic _file_llseek hurts. Independent processes accessing the same file synchronize over a single lock, even though they have no need for synchronization at all. Under high utilization this can cause llseek to scale very poorly on larger systems. This patch does some rethinking of the llseek locking model: First the 64bit f_pos is not necessarily atomic without locks on 32bit systems. This can already cause races with read() today. This was discussed on linux-kernel in the past and deemed acceptable. The patch does not change that. Let's look at the different seek variants: SEEK_SET: Doesn't really need any locking. If there's a race one writer wins, the other loses. For 32bit the non atomic update races against read() stay the same. Without a lock they can also happen against write() now. The read() race was deemed acceptable in past discussions, and I think if it's ok for read it's ok for write too. => Don't need a lock. SEEK_END: This behaves like SEEK_SET plus it reads the maximum size too. Reading the maximum size would have the 32bit atomic problem. But luckily we already have a way to read the maximum size without locking (i_size_read), so we can just use that instead. Without i_mutex there is no synchronization with write() anymore, however since the write() update is atomic on 64bit it just behaves like another racy SEEK_SET. On non atomic 32bit it's the same as SEEK_SET. => Don't need a lock, but need to use i_size_read() SEEK_CUR: This has a read-modify-write race window on the same file. One could argue that any application doing unsynchronized seeks on the same file is already broken. But for the sake of not adding a regression here I'm using the file->f_lock to synchronize this. Using this lock is much better than the inode mutex because it doesn't synchronize between processes. => So still need a lock, but can use a f_lock. This patch implements this new scheme in generic_file_llseek. I dropped generic_file_llseek_unlocked and changed all callers.

2011-10-21GFS2: rewrite fallocate code to write blocks directlyBenjamin Marzinski3-147/+39
GFS2's fallocate code currently goes through the page cache. Since it's only writing to the end of the file or to holes in it, it doesn't need to, and it was causing issues on low memory environments. This patch pulls in some of Steve's block allocation work, and uses it to simply allocate the blocks for the file, and zero them out at allocation time. It provides a slight performance increase, and it dramatically simplifies the code. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Marzinski <bmarzins@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

2011-10-21GFS2: Fix off-by-one in gfs2_blk2rgrpdSteven Whitehouse1-5/+4
Bob reported: I found an off-by-one problem with how I coded this section: It should be: + else if (blk >= cur->rd_data0 + cur->rd_data) In fact, cur->rd_data0 + cur->rd_data is the start of the next rgrp (the next ri_addr), so without the "=" check it can land on the wrong rgrp. In all normal cases, this won't be a problem: you're searching for a block _within_ the rgrp, which will pass the test properly. Where it gets into trouble is if you search the rgrps for the block exactly equal to ri_addr. I don't think anything in the kernel does this, but I found a place in gfs2-utils gfs2_edit where it does. So I definitely need to fix it in libgfs2. I'd like to suggest we fix it in the kernel as well for the sake of keeping the functions similar.

This patch brings gfs2's ->page_mkwrite uptodate with respect to the expectations set by the VM. Also added is a check to wait if the fs is frozen, before we attempt to get a glock. This will only work on the node which initiates the freeze, but thats ok since the transaction lock will still provide the expected barrier on other nodes. The major change here is that we return a locked page now, except when we don't return a page at all (error cases). This removes the race which required rechecking the page after it was returned.

Unfortunately, it is not enough to just ignore locked buffers during the AIL flush from fsync. We need to be able to ignore all buffers which are locked, dirty or pinned at this stage as they might have been added subsequent to the log flush earlier in the fsync function. In addition, this means that we no longer need to rely on i_mutex to keep out writes during fsync, so we can, as a side-effect, remove that protection too.

2011-10-21GFS2: Use cached rgrp in gfs2_rlist_add()Steven Whitehouse5-11/+15
Each block which is deallocated, requires a call to gfs2_rlist_add() and each of those calls was calling gfs2_blk2rgrpd() in order to figure out which rgrp the block belonged in. This can be speeded up by making use of the rgrp cached in the inode. We also reset this cached rgrp in case the block has changed rgrp. This should provide a big reduction in gfs2_blk2rgrpd() calls during deallocation. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2011-10-21GFS2: Call do_strip() directly from recursive_scan()Steven Whitehouse1-78/+71
The recursive_scan() function only ever takes a single "bc" argument, so we might as well just call do_strip() directly from resource_scan() rather than pass it in as an argument. Also the "data" argument is always a struct strip_mine, so we can pass that in, rather than using a void pointer. This also moves do_strip() ahead of recursive_scan() so that we don't need to add a prototype. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2011-10-21GFS2: Remove obsolete assertSteven Whitehouse1-7/+0
Given that a resource group has been locked, there is no reason why we should not be able to allocate as many blocks as are free. The al_requested parameter should really be considered as a minimum number of blocks to be available. Should this limit be overshot, there are other mechanisms which will prevent over allocation.

2011-10-21GFS2: Cache the most recently used resource group in the inodeSteven Whitehouse9-45/+44
This means that after the initial allocation for any inode, the last used resource group is cached in the inode for future use. This drastically reduces the number of lookups of resource groups in the common case, and this the contention on that data structure. The allocation algorithm is the same as previously, except that we always check to see if the goal block is within the cached rgrp first before going to the rbtree to look one up.
