| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In case a cpu goes idle but softirqs are pending only an error message is printed to the console. It may take a very long time until the pending softirqs will finally be executed. Worst case would be a hanging system. With this patch the timer tick just continues and the softirqs will be executed after the next interrupt. Still a delay but better than a hanging system. Currently we have at least two device drivers on s390 which under certain circumstances schedule a tasklet from process context. This is a reason why we can end up with pending softirqs when going idle. Fixing these drivers seems to be non-trivial. However there is no question that the drivers should be fixed. This patch shouldn't be considered as a bug fix. It just is intended to keep a system running even if device drivers are buggy.

This warning makes sense when the suspend/resume mechanism offlines all cpus but one during the suspend/resume process. However, Xen suspend does not need to offline the other cpus; it merely keeps them tied up in stop_machine() while the virtual machine is suspended. The warning hres_timers_resume issues is therefore spurious. Signed-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com> Cc: xen-devel <xen-devel@lists.xensource.com> Cc: "Rafael J.

This patch creates /proc/irq/default_smp_affinity that lets users set default affinity mask for the newly allocated IRQs. Changing the default does not affect affinity masks for the currently active IRQs, they have to be changed explicitly. Updated based on Paul J's comments and added some more documentation.

The "recent list" was not a true mru list leading to a number of inefficiencies including a "next" function which made scanning the list an order N^2 operation wrt to the number of list elements. This should increase allocation performance with large numbers of rgrps. Its also a useful preparation and cleanup before some further changes which are planned in this area.

| * | | | | | | [GFS2] Allow local DF locks when holding a cached EX glockSteven Whitehouse2008-07-071-2/+6

This works only because we rely on the VFS's invalidation for locally cached data, and because if we hold an EX lock, then we know that no other node can be caching data relating to this file. It dramatically speeds up initial writes to O_DIRECT files since we fall back to buffered I/O for this and would otherwise bounce between DF and EX modes on each and every write call. The lessons to be learned from that are to ensure that (for the time being anyway) O_DIRECT files are preallocated and that they are written to using reasonably large I/O sizes. Even so this change fixes that corner case nicely Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

For this it's sufficient to call gfs2_permission() instead. This results in the following changes: - IS_RDONLY() check is not performed - IS_IMMUTABLE() check is not performed - devcgroup_inode_permission() is not called - security_inode_permission() is not called IS_RDONLY() should be unnecessary anyway, as the per-mount read-only flag should provide protection against read-only remounts during operations. do_gfs2_set_flags() has been fixed to perform mnt_want_write()/mnt_drop_write() to protect against remounting read-only. IS_IMMUTABLE has been added to gfs2_permission() Repeating the security checks seems to be pointless, as they don't normally change, and if they do, it's independent of the filesystem state.

It never happens during normal operation anyway 2. If it does happen it causes performance to be very, very poor 3. It isn't likely to solve the original problem (memory shortage on remote DLM node) it was supposed to solve 4. It uses a bunch of arbitrary constants which are unlikely to be correct for any particular situation and for which the tuning seems to be a black art. 5. In an N node cluster, only 1/N of the dropped locked will actually contribute to solving the problem on average. So all in all we are better off without it. This also makes merging the lock_dlm module into GFS2 a bit easier. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

This started with a not-too-improbable mount failure because the locking protocol was never set back to its proper "lock_dlm" after the system was rebooted in the middle of a gfs2_fsck. That left a (purposely) invalid locking protocol in the superblock, which caused an error when the file system was mounted the next time. When there's an error mounting, vfs calls DQUOT_OFF, which calls vfs_quota_off which calls gfs2_sync_fs. Next, gfs2_sync_fs calls gfs2_log_flush passing s_fs_info. But due to the error, s_fs_info had been previously set to NULL, and so we have the kernel oops. My solution in this patch is to test for the NULL value before passing it. I tested this patch and it fixes the problem. Signed-off-by: Bob Peterson <rpeterso@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

This patch avoids the problem by unlocking the page and getting the locks in the correct order. This means that we have to retest the page to ensure that it hasn't changed when we relock the page. This now passes the tests which were previously failing. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

As well as removing some of the overhead of the module, it also means that its now impossible to build GFS2 without a lock module (which would be a pointless thing to do anyway). We also plan to merge lock_dlm into GFS2 in the future, but that is a more tricky task, and will therefore be a separate patch.

Mostly its things moving from one file to another. The change is just that instead of queuing lock completions and callbacks from the DLM we now pass them directly to GFS2. This gives us a net loss of two list heads per glock (a fair saving in memory) plus a reduction in the latency of delivering the messages to GFS2, plus we now have one thread fewer as well. There was a bug where callbacks and completions could be delivered in the wrong order due to this unnecessary queuing which is fixed by this patch.

As a result a lot of code is removed. It looks like a really big change, but actually a large part of this patch is either removing or moving existing code. There are some new bits too though, such as the new run_queue() function which is considerably streamlined. Highlights of this patch include: o Fixes a cluster coherency bug during SH -> EX lock conversions o Removes the "glmutex" code in favour of a single bit lock o Removes the ->go_xmote_bh() for inodes since it was duplicating ->go_lock() o We now only use the ->lm_lock() function for both locks and unlocks (i.e. unlock is a lock with target mode LM_ST_UNLOCKED) o The fast path is considerably shortly, giving performance gains especially with lock_nolock o The glock_workqueue is now used for all the callbacks from the DLM which allows us to simplify the lock_dlm module (see following patch) o The way is now open to make further changes such as eliminating the two threads (gfs2_glockd and gfs2_scand) in favour of a more efficient scheme. This patch has undergone extensive testing with various test suites so it should be pretty stable by now. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com> Cc: Bob Peterson <rpeterso@redhat.com>
