2008-10-14ocfs2: Simplify ocfs2_read_block()Joel Becker
More than 30 callers of ocfs2_read_block() pass exactly OCFS2_BH_CACHED. Only six pass a different flag set. Rather than have every caller care, let's make ocfs2_read_block() take no flags and always do a cached read. The remaining six places can call ocfs2_read_blocks() directly.

2008-07-10ocfs2: Fix flags in ocfs2_file_lockMark Fasheh
The stack-glue merge changed the way we use flags in dlmglue in that we now use the fs/dlm equivalents. Unfortunately, a merge error left the new flock code only partially updated. This took a while to show up though, because the lock level constants are actually identical between o2dlm and fs/dlm. The *_CONVERT and *_NOQUEUE flags have different values though, which is eventually causing a crash in flags_to_o2dlm(). Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mfasheh@suse.com>
2008-04-18ocfs2: Add the 'cluster_stack' sysfs file.Joel Becker
Userspace can now query and specify the cluster stack in use via the /sys/fs/ocfs2/cluster_stack file. By default, it is 'o2cb', which is the classic stack. Thus, old tools that do not know how to modify this file will work just fine. The stack cannot be modified if there is a live filesystem. ocfs2_cluster_connect() now takes the expected cluster stack as an argument. This way, the filesystem and the stack glue ensure they are speaking to the same backend. If the stack is 'o2cb', the o2cb stack plugin is used. For any other value, the fsdlm stack plugin is selected. Signed-off-by: Joel Becker <joel.becker@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mfasheh@suse.com>
2008-04-18ocfs2: Break out stackglue into modules.Joel Becker
We define the ocfs2_stack_plugin structure to represent a stack driver. The o2cb stack code is split into stack_o2cb.c. This becomes the ocfs2_stack_o2cb.ko module. The stackglue generic functions are similarly split into the ocfs2_stackglue.ko module. This module now provides an interface to register drivers. The ocfs2_stack_o2cb driver registers itself. As part of this interface, ocfs2_stackglue can load drivers on demand. This is accomplished in ocfs2_cluster_connect(). ocfs2_cluster_disconnect() is now notified when a _hangup() is pending. If a hangup is pending, it will not release the driver module and will let _hangup() do that. Signed-off-by: Joel Becker <joel.becker@oracle.com>

2008-04-18ocfs2: Remove CANCELGRANT from the view of dlmglue.Joel Becker
o2dlm has the non-standard behavior of providing a cancel callback (unlock_ast) even when the cancel has failed (the locking operation succeeded without canceling). This is called CANCELGRANT after the status code sent to the callback. fs/dlm does not provide this callback, so dlmglue must be changed to live without it. o2dlm_unlock_ast_wrapper() in stackglue now ignores CANCELGRANT calls. Because dlmglue no longer sees CANCELGRANT, ocfs2_unlock_ast() no longer needs to check for it. ocfs2_locking_ast() must catch that a cancel was tried and clear the cancel state. Making these changes opens up a locking race. dlmglue uses the the OCFS2_LOCK_BUSY flag to ensure only one thread is calling the dlm at any one time. But dlmglue must unlock the lockres before calling into the dlm. In the small window of time between unlocking the lockres and calling the dlm, the downconvert thread can try to cancel the lock. The downconvert thread is checking the OCFS2_LOCK_BUSY flag - it doesn't know that ocfs2_dlm_lock() has not yet been called. Because ocfs2_dlm_lock() has not yet been called, the cancel operation will just be a no-op. There's nothing to cancel. With CANCELGRANT, dlmglue uses the CANCELGRANT callback to clear up the cancel state. When it comes around again, it will retry the cancel. Eventually, the first thread will have called into ocfs2_dlm_lock(), and either the lock or the cancel will succeed. The downconvert thread can then do its downconvert. Without CANCELGRANT, there is nothing to clean up the cancellation state. The downconvert thread does not know to retry its operations. More importantly, the original lock may be blocking on the other node that is trying to cancel us. With neither able to make progress, the ast is never called and the cancellation state is never cleaned up that way. dlmglue is deadlocked. The OCFS2_LOCK_PENDING flag is introduced to remedy this window. It is set at the same time OCFS2_LOCK_BUSY is. Thus, the downconvert thread can check whether the lock is cancelable. If not, it just loops around to try again. Once ocfs2_dlm_lock() is called, the thread then clears OCFS2_LOCK_PENDING and wakes the downconvert thread. Now, if the downconvert thread finds the lock BUSY, it can safely try to cancel it. Whether the cancel works or not, the state will be properly set and the lock processing can continue.

2008-04-18ocfs2: Fill node number during cluster stack initMark Fasheh
It doesn't make sense to query for a node number before connecting to the cluster stack.

2008-04-18ocfs2: Move o2hb functionality into the stack glue.Joel Becker
The last bit of classic stack used directly in ocfs2 code is o2hb. Specifically, the check for heartbeat during mount and the call to ocfs2_hb_ctl during unmount. We create an extra API, ocfs2_cluster_hangup(), to encapsulate the call to ocfs2_hb_ctl. Other stacks will just leave hangup() empty. The check for heartbeat is moved into ocfs2_cluster_connect(). It will be matched by a similar check for other stacks. With this change, only stackglue.c includes cluster/ headers.

2008-04-18ocfs2: Introduce the new ocfs2_cluster_connect/disconnect() API.Joel Becker
This step introduces a cluster stack agnostic API for initializing and exiting. fs/ocfs2/dlmglue.c no longer uses o2cb/o2dlm knowledge to connect to the stack. It is all handled in stackglue.c. heartbeat.c no longer needs to know how it gets called. ocfs2_do_node_down() is now a clean recovery trigger. The big gotcha is the ordering of initializations and de-initializations done underneath ocfs2_cluster_connect(). ocfs2_dlm_init() used to do all o2dlm initialization in one block. Thus, the o2dlm functionality of ocfs2_cluster_connect() is very straightforward. ocfs2_dlm_shutdown(), however, did a few things between de-registration of the eviction callback and actually shutting down the domain. Now de-registration and shutdown of the domain are wrapped within the single ocfs2_cluster_disconnect() call. I've checked the code paths to make sure we can safely tear down things in ocfs2_dlm_shutdown() before calling ocfs2_cluster_disconnect(). The filesystem has already set itself to ignore the callback. Signed-off-by: Joel Becker <joel.becker@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mfasheh@suse.com>

2008-04-18ocfs2: Change the recovery map to an array of node numbers.Joel Becker
The old recovery map was a bitmap of node numbers. This was sufficient for the maximum node number of 254. Going forward, we want node numbers to be UINT32. Thus, we need a new recovery map. Note that we can't keep track of slots here. We must write down the node number to recovery *before* we get the locks needed to convert a node number into a slot number. The recovery map is now an array of unsigned ints, max_slots in size. It moves to journal.c with the rest of recovery. Because it needs to be initialized, we move all of recovery initialization into a new function, ocfs2_recovery_init(). This actually cleans up ocfs2_initialize_super() a little as well. Following on, recovery cleaup becomes part of ocfs2_recovery_exit(). A number of node map functions are rendered obsolete and are removed. Finally, waiting on recovery is wrapped in a function rather than naked checks on the recovery_event. This is a cleanup from Mark.

2008-02-06ocfs2: Negotiate locking protocol versions.Joel Becker
Currently, when ocfs2 nodes connect via TCP, they advertise their compatibility level. If the versions do not match, two nodes cannot speak to each other and they disconnect. As a result, this provides no forward or backwards compatibility. This patch implements a simple protocol negotiation at the dlm level by introducing a major/minor version number scheme for entities that communicate. Specifically, o2dlm has a major/minor version for interaction with o2dlm on other nodes, and ocfs2 itself has a major/minor version for interacting with the filesystem on other nodes. This will allow rolling upgrades of ocfs2 clusters when changes to the locking or network protocols can be done in a backwards compatible manner. In those cases, only the minor number is changed and the negotatied protocol minor is returned from dlm join. In the far less likely event that a required protocol change makes backwards compatibility impossible, we simply bump the major number.

2008-01-25[PATCH 1/2] ocfs2: add flock lock typeMark Fasheh
This adds a new dlmglue lock type which is intended to back flock() requests. Since these locks are driven from userspace, usage rules are much more liberal than the typical Ocfs2 internal cluster lock. As a result, we can't make use of most dlmglue features - lock caching and lock level optimizations in particular. Additionally, userspace is free to deadlock itself, so we have to deal with that in the same way as the rest of the kernel - by allowing a signal to abort a lock request. In order to keep ocfs2_cluster_lock() complexity down, ocfs2_file_lock() does it's own dlm coordination. We still use the same helper functions though, so duplicated code is kept to a minimum.

2008-01-25ocfs2: Remove data locksMark Fasheh
The meta lock now covers both meta data and data, so this just removes the now-redundant data lock. Combining locks saves us a round of lock mastery per inode and one less lock to ping between nodes during read/write. We don't lose much - since meta locks were always held before a data lock (and at the same level) ordered writeout mode (the default) ensured that flushing for the meta data lock also pushed out data anyways.

2008-01-25ocfs2: Remove mount/unmount votesMark Fasheh

Since those are the last two remaining votes, we can also remove the entire vote infrastructure.

2007-11-06ocfs2: Create locks at initially requested levelMark Fasheh
If we have not yet created a cluster lock, ocfs2_cluster_lock() will first create it at NLMODE, and then convert the lock to either PRMODE or EXMODE (whichever is requested). Change ocfs2_cluster_lock() to just create the lock at the initially requested level. ocfs2_locking_ast() handles this case fine, so the only update required was in setup of locking state. This should reduce the number of network messages required for a new lock by one, providing an incremental performance enhancement. Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>

2007-04-26ocfs2: Cache extent recordsMark Fasheh
The extent map code was ripped out earlier because of an inability to deal with holes. This patch adds back a simpler caching scheme requiring far less code. Our old extent map caching was designed back when meta data block caching in Ocfs2 didn't work very well, resulting in many disk reads. These days our metadata caching is much better, resulting in no un-necessary disk reads. As a result, extent caching doesn't have to be as fancy, nor does it have to cache as many extents. Keeping the last 3 extents seen should be sufficient to give us a small performance boost on some streaming workloads. Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>

The following patches reduce the size of the VFS inode structure by 28 bytes on a UP x86. (It would be more on an x86_64 system). This is a 10% reduction in the inode size on a UP kernel that is configured in a production mode (i.e., with no spinlock or other debugging functions enabled; if you want to save memory taken up by in-core inodes, the first thing you should do is disable the debugging options; they are responsible for a huge amount of bloat in the VFS inode structure).

Get rid of the union and rename it to i_private, with a comment to explain who is allowed to use the void pointer.
