* dlm: use workqueue for callbacksDavid Teigland2011-07-151-7/+8
| | | | | | | | | Instead of creating our own kthread (dlm_astd) to deliver callbacks for all lockspaces, use a per-lockspace workqueue to deliver the callbacks. This eliminates complications and slowdowns from many lockspaces sharing the same thread. Signed-off-by: David Teigland <teigland@redhat.com>
* dlm: record full callback stateDavid Teigland2011-03-101-1/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Change how callbacks are recorded for locks. Previously, information about multiple callbacks was combined into a couple of variables that indicated what the end result should be. In some situations, we could not tell from this combined state what the exact sequence of callbacks were, and would end up either delivering the callbacks in the wrong order, or suppress redundant callbacks incorrectly. This new approach records all the data for each callback, leaving no uncertainty about what needs to be delivered. Signed-off-by: David Teigland <teigland@redhat.com>
* dlm: fix ordering of bast and castDavid Teigland2010-02-241-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When both blocking and completion callbacks are queued for lock, the dlm would always deliver the completion callback (cast) first. In some cases the blocking callback (bast) is queued before the cast, though, and should be delivered first. This patch keeps track of the order in which they were queued and delivers them in that order. This patch also keeps track of the granted mode in the last cast and eliminates the following bast if the bast mode is compatible with the preceding cast mode. This happens when a remotely mastered lock is demoted, e.g. EX->NL, in which case the local node queues a cast immediately after sending the demote message. In this way a cast can be queued for a mode, e.g. NL, that makes an in-transit bast extraneous. Signed-off-by: David Teigland <teigland@redhat.com>
* dlm: improve how bast mode handlingDavid Teigland2008-12-231-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | The lkb bastmode value is set in the context of processing the lock, and read by the dlm_astd thread. Because it's accessed in these two separate contexts, the writing/reading ought to be done under a lock. This is simple to do by setting it and reading it when the lkb is added to and removed from dlm_astd's callback list which is properly locked. Signed-off-by: David Teigland <teigland@redhat.com>
* [DLM] The core of the DLM for GFS2/CLVMDavid Teigland2006-01-181-0/+26
This is the core of the distributed lock manager which is required to use GFS2 as a cluster filesystem. It is also used by CLVM and can be used as a standalone lock manager independantly of either of these two projects. It implements VAX-style locking modes.
