2015-11-05ocfs2: improve performance for localallocJoseph Qi
Currently cluster allocation is always trying to find a victim chain (a chian has most space), and this may lead to poor performance because of discontiguous allocation in some scenarios. Our test case is block size 4k, cluster size 1M and mount option with localalloc=2048 (2G), since a gd is 32256M (about 31.5G) and a localalloc window is only 2G, creating 50G file will result in 2G from gd0, 2G from gd1, ... One way to improve performance is enlarge localalloc window size (max 31104M), but this will make end user feel that about 30G is suddenly "missing", and localalloc currently do not support steal, which means one node cannot use another node's localalloc even it is not used in fact. So using the last gd to record the allocation and continues with the gd if it has enough space for a localalloc window can make the allocation as more contiguous as possible. Our test result is below (evaluated in IOPS), which is using iometer running in VM, dynamic vhd virtual disk stored in ocfs2.

2013-02-27ocfs2: ac->ac_allow_chain_relink=0 won't disable group relinkXiaowei.Hu
ocfs2_block_group_alloc_discontig() disables chain relink by setting ac->ac_allow_chain_relink = 0 because it grabs clusters from multiple cluster groups. It doesn't keep the credits for all chain relink,but ocfs2_claim_suballoc_bits overrides this in this call trace: ocfs2_block_group_claim_bits()->ocfs2_claim_clusters()-> __ocfs2_claim_clusters()->ocfs2_claim_suballoc_bits() ocfs2_claim_suballoc_bits set ac->ac_allow_chain_relink = 1; then call ocfs2_search_chain() one time and disable it again, and then we run out of credits. Fix is to allow relink by default and disable it in ocfs2_block_group_alloc_discontig.

Otherwise, it will be replaced by mlog_errno. 2. if it is used to print some return value, it is replaced with mlog(0,...). mlog_exit_ptr is changed to mlog(0.

2010-09-08ocfs2: allow return of new inode block location before allocation of the inodeMark Fasheh
This allows code which needs to know the eventual block number of an inode but can't allocate it yet due to transaction or lock ordering. For example, ocfs2_create_inode_in_orphan() currently gives a junk blkno for preparation of the orphan dir because it can't yet know where the actual inode is placed - that code is actually in ocfs2_mknod_locked. This is a problem when the orphan dirs are indexed as the junk inode number will create an index entry which goes unused (and fails the later removal from the orphan dir). Now with these interfaces, ocfs2_create_inode_in_orphan() can run the block group search (and get back the inode block number) *before* any actual allocation occurs.

2010-05-05ocfs2: Make ocfs2_journal_dirty() void.Joel Becker
jbd[2]_journal_dirty_metadata() only returns 0. It's been returning 0 since before the kernel moved to git. There is no point in checking this error. ocfs2_journal_dirty() has been faithfully returning the status since the beginning. All over ocfs2, we have blocks of code checking this can't fail status. In the past few years, we've tried to avoid adding these checks, because they are pointless. But anyone who looks at our code assumes they are needed. Finally, ocfs2_journal_dirty() is made a void function. All error checking is removed from other files. We'll BUG_ON() the status of jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata() just in case they change it someday.

2010-03-23ocfs2: Clear undo bits when local alloc is freedMark Fasheh
When the local alloc file changes windows, unused bits are freed back to the global bitmap. By defnition, those bits can not be in use by any file. Also, the local alloc will never have been able to allocate those bits if they were part of a previous truncate. Therefore it makes sense that we should clear unused local alloc bits in the undo buffer so that they can be used immediatly.

2010-03-17ocfs2: Change bg_chain check for ocfs2_validate_gd_parent.Tao Ma
In ocfs2_validate_gd_parent, we check bg_chain against the cl_next_free_rec of the dinode. Actually in resize, we have the chance of bg_chain == cl_next_free_rec. So add some additional condition check for it. I also rename paramter "clean_error" to "resize", since the old one is not clearly enough to indicate that we should only meet with this case in resize. btw, the correpsonding bug is http://oss.oracle.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1230.
