* GFS2: Fix inode deallocation raceSteven Whitehouse2010-11-151-45/+46
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This area of the code has always been a bit delicate due to the subtleties of lock ordering. The problem is that for "normal" alloc/dealloc, we always grab the inode locks first and the rgrp lock later. In order to ensure no races in looking up the unlinked, but still allocated inodes, we need to hold the rgrp lock when we do the lookup, which means that we can't take the inode glock. The solution is to borrow the technique already used by NFS to solve what is essentially the same problem (given an inode number, look up the inode carefully, checking that it really is in the expected state). We cannot do that directly from the allocation code (lock ordering again) so we give the job to the pre-existing delete workqueue and carry on with the allocation as normal. If we find there is no space, we do a journal flush (required anyway if space from a deallocation is to be released) which should block against the pending deallocations, so we should always get the space back.

| * block: remove BLKDEV_IFL_WAITChristoph Hellwig2010-09-161-3/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | All the blkdev_issue_* helpers can only sanely be used for synchronous caller. To issue cache flushes or barriers asynchronously the caller needs to set up a bio by itself with a completion callback to move the asynchronous state machine ahead. So drop the BLKDEV_IFL_WAIT flag that is always specified when calling blkdev_issue_* and also remove the now unused flags argument to blkdev_issue_flush and blkdev_issue_zeroout. For blkdev_issue_discard we need to keep it for the secure discard flag, which gains a more descriptive name and loses the bitops vs flag confusion.

* | GFS2 fatal: filesystem consistency error on renameBob Peterson2010-09-301-9/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes a GFS2 problem whereby the first rename after a mount can result in a file system consistency error being flagged improperly and cause the file system to withdraw. The problem is that the rename code tries to run the rgrp list with function gfs2_blk2rgrpd before the rgrp list is guaranteed to be read in from disk. The patch makes the rename function hold the rindex glock (as the gfs2_unlink code does today) which reads in the rgrp list if need be. There were a total of three places in the rename code that improperly referenced the rgrp list without the rindex glock and this patch fixes all three.

* | GFS2: fallocate supportBenjamin Marzinski2010-09-201-0/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds support for fallocate to gfs2. Since the gfs2 does not support uninitialized data blocks, it must write out zeros to all the blocks. However, since it does not need to lock any pages to read from, gfs2 can write out the zero blocks much more efficiently. On a moderately full filesystem, fallocate works around 5 times faster on average. The fallocate call also allows gfs2 to add blocks to the file without changing the filesize, which will make it possible for gfs2 to preallocate space for the rindex file, so that gfs2 can grow a completely full filesystem.

First, there were a couple of livelocks where everything would come to a halt waiting for a glock that was seemingly held by a process that no longer existed. In fact, the process did exist, it just had the wrong pid number in the holder information. Second, there was a lock ordering problem between inode locking and glock locking.

* | GFS2: Be extra careful about deallocating inodesSteven Whitehouse2009-09-081-1/+41
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is a potential race in the inode deallocation code if two nodes try to deallocate the same inode at the same time. Most of the issue is solved by the iopen locking. There is still a small window which is not covered by the iopen lock. This patches fixes that and also makes the deallocation code more robust in the face of any errors in the rgrp bitmaps, or erroneous iopen callbacks from other nodes. This does introduce one extra disk read, but that is generally not an issue since its the same block that must be written to later in the deallocation process. The total disk accesses therefore stay the same, Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
* | GFS2: Remove no_formal_ino generating codeSteven Whitehouse2009-08-271-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The inum structure used throughout GFS2 has two fields. One no_addr is the disk block number of the inode in question and is used everywhere as the inode number. The other, no_formal_ino, is used only as the generation number for NFS. Historically the no_formal_ino field was set using a complicated system of one global and one per-node file containing inode numbers in order to ensure that each no_formal_ino was unique. Also this code made no provision for what would happen when eventually the (64 bit) numbers ran out. Now I know that is pretty unlikely to happen given the large space of numbers, but it is possible nevertheless. The only guarantee required for no_formal_ino is that, for any single inode, the same number doesn't get reused too quickly. We already have a generation number which is kept in the inode and initialised from a counter in the resource group (almost no overhead, since we have to touch the resource group anyway in order to allocate an inode in the first place). Aside from ensuring that we never use the value 0 in the no_formal_ino field, we can use that counter directly. As a result of that change, we lose about 200 lines of code and also gain about 10 creates/sec on the postmark benchmark (on my test machine). Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | During block allocation, it is useful to know if sections of disk are full on a finer grained basis than a single resource group. This can make a performance difference when resource groups have larger numbers of bitmap blocks, since we no longer have to search them all block by block in each individual bitmap. The full flag is set on a per-bitmap basis when it has been searched and found to have no free space. It is then skipped in subsequent searches until the flag is reset. The resetting occurs if we have to drop the glock on the resource group for any reason, or if we deallocate some blocks within that resource group and thus free up some space.

* GFS2: Ensure that the inode goal block settings are updatedSteven Whitehouse2009-04-231-1/+9

* GFS2: Add a "demote a glock" interface to sysfsSteven Whitehouse2009-03-241-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds a sysfs file called demote_rq to GFS2's per filesystem directory. Its possible to use this file to demote arbitrary glocks in exactly the same way as if a request had come in from a remote node. This is intended for testing issues relating to caching of data under glocks. Despite that, the interface is generic enough to send requests to any type of glock, but be careful as its not always safe to send an arbitrary message to an arbitrary glock. For that reason and to prevent DoS, this interface is restricted to root only. The messages look like this: <type>:<glocknumber> <mode> Example: echo -n "2:13324 EX" >/sys/fs/gfs2/unity:myfs/demote_rq Which means "please demote inode glock (type 2) number 13324 so that I can get an EX (exclusive) lock". The lock modes are those which would normally be sent by a remote node in its callback so if you want to unlock a glock, you use EX, to demote to shared, use SH or PR (depending on whether you like GFS2 or DLM lock modes better!). If the glock doesn't exist, you'll get -ENOENT returned. If the arguments don't make sense, you'll get -EINVAL returned. The plan is that this interface will be used in combination with the blktrace patch which I recently posted for comments although it is, of course, still useful in its own right.

* GFS2: Support generation of discard requestsSteven Whitehouse2009-03-241-0/+55
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch allows GFS2 to generate discard requests for blocks which are no longer useful to the filesystem (i.e. those which have been freed as the result of an unlink operation). The requests are generated at the time which those blocks become available for reuse in the filesystem. In order to use this new feature, you have to specify the "discard" mount option. The code coalesces adjacent blocks into a single extent when generating the discard requests, thus generating the minimum number. If an error occurs when the request has been sent to the block device, then it will print a message and turn off the requests for that filesystem. If the problem is temporary, then you can use remount to turn the option back on again. There is also a nodiscard mount option so that you can use remount to turn discard requests off, if required.

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.

* GFS2: Banish struct gfs2_rgrpd_hostSteven Whitehouse2009-01-051-12/+8
| | | | | | | | | This patch moves the final field so that we can get rid of struct gfs2_rgrpd_host, as promised some time ago. Also by rearranging the fields slightly, we are able to reduce the size of the gfs2_rgrpd structure at the same time. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
* GFS2: Move rg_free from gfs2_rgrpd_host to gfs2_rgrpdSteven Whitehouse2009-01-051-14/+14
| | | | | | | The second of three fields which need to move, in order to remove the struct gfs2_rgrpd_host. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
* GFS2: Move rg_igeneration into struct gfs2_rgrpdSteven Whitehouse2009-01-051-3/+3
| | | | | | | | This moves one of the fields of struct gfs2_rgrpd_host into the struct gfs2_rgrpd with the eventual aim of removing the struct rgrpd_host completely. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
* GFS2: Move i_size from gfs2_dinode_host and rename it to i_disksizeSteven Whitehouse2009-01-051-3/+3
| | | | | | | This patch moved the i_size field from the gfs2_dinode_host and following the ext3 convention renames it i_disksize. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
* [GFS2] Replace rgrp "recent list" with mru listSteven Whitehouse2008-07-101-96/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch removes the "recent list" which is used during allocation and replaces it with the (already existing) mru list used during deletion. 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] Fix cast from unsigned int to s64Andrew Price2008-05-121-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | This fixes bz 444829 where allocating a new block caused gfs2 file systems to report 0 bytes used in df. It was caused by a broken cast from an unsigned int in gfs2_block_alloc() to a negative s64 in gfs2_statfs_change(). This patch casts the unsigned int to an s64 before the unary minus is applied.
