f58ba88910 [GFS2] don't call permission()
GFS2 calls permission() to verify permissions after locks on the files
have been taken.

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.

091806edd4 [GFS2] filesystem consistency error from do_strip
This patch fixes a GFS2 filesystem consistency error reported from
function do_strip.  The problem was caused by a timing window
that allowed two vfs inodes to be created in memory that point
to the same file.  The problem is fixed by making the vfs's
iget_test, iget_set mechanism check and set a new bit in the
in-core gfs2_inode structure while the vfs inode spin_lock is held.

7afd88d916 [GFS2] Fix a page lock / glock deadlock
We've previously been using a "try lock" in readpage on the basis that
it would prevent deadlocks due to the inverted lock ordering (our normal
lock ordering is glock first and then page lock). Unfortunately tests
have shown that this isn't enough. If the glock has a demote request
queued such that run_queue() in the glock code tries to do a demote when
its called under readpage then it will try and write out all the dirty
pages which requires locking them. This then deadlocks with the page
locked by readpage.

The solution is to always require two calls into readpage. The first
unlocks the page, gets the glock and returns AOP_TRUNCATED_PAGE, the
second does the actual readpage and unlocks the glock & page as
required.

77658aad22 [GFS2] Eliminate (almost) duplicate field from gfs2_inode
The blocks counter is almost a duplicate of the i_blocks
field in the VFS inode. The only difference is that i_blocks
can be only 32bits long for 32bit arch without large single file
support. Since GFS2 doesn't handle the non-large single file
case (for 32 bit anyway) this adds a new config dependency on
64BIT || LSF. This has always been the case, however we've never
explicitly said so before.

Even if we do add support for the non-LSF case, we will still
not require this field to be duplicated since we will not be
able to access oversized files anyway.

So the net result of all this is that we shave 8 bytes from a gfs2_inode
and get our config deps correct.

di_height. Like that patch di_depth is renamed i_depth and moved
into struct gfs2_inode directly. Also the field goes from 16 bits

ecc30c7915 [GFS2] Streamline indirect pointer tree height calculation
This patch improves the calculation of the tree height in order to reduce
the number of operations which are carried out on each call to gfs2_block_map.
In the common case, we now make a single comparison, rather than calculating
the required tree height from scratch each time. Also in the case that the
tree does need some extra height, we start from the current height rather from
zero when we work out what the new height ought to be.

In addition the di_height field is moved into the inode proper and reduced
in size to a u8 since the value must be between 0 and GFS2_MAX_META_HEIGHT (10).

6dbd822487 [GFS2] Reduce inode size by moving i_alloc out of line
It is possible to reduce the size of GFS2 inodes by taking the i_alloc
structure out of the gfs2_inode. This patch allocates the i_alloc
structure whenever its needed, and frees it afterward. This decreases
the amount of low memory we use at the expense of requiring a memory
allocation for each page or partial page that we write. A quick test
with postmark shows that the overhead is not measurable and I also note
that OCFS2 use the same approach.

In the future I'd like to solve the problem by shrinking down the size
of the members of the i_alloc structure, but for now, this reduces the
immediate problem of using too much low-memory on x86 and doesn't add
too much overhead.

f91a0d3e24 [GFS2] Remove useless i_cache from inodes
The i_cache was designed to keep references to the indirect blocks
used during block mapping so that they didn't have to be looked
up continually. The idea failed because there are too many places
where the i_cache needs to be freed, and this has in the past been
the cause of many bugs.

In addition there was no performance benefit being gained since the
disk blocks in question were cached anyway. So this patch removes
it in order to simplify the code to prepare for other changes which
would otherwise have had to add further support for this feature.

7a9f53b3c1 [GFS2] Alternate gfs2_iget to avoid looking up inodes being freed
There is a possible deadlock between two processes on the same node, where one
process is deleting an inode, and another process is looking for allocated but
unused inodes to delete in order to create more space.

process A does an iput() on inode X, and it's i_count drops to 0. This causes
iput_final() to be called, which puts an inode into state I_FREEING at
generic_delete_inode(). There no point between when iput_final() is called, and
when I_FREEING is set where GFS2 could acquire any glocks. Once I_FREEING is
set, no other process on that node can successfully look up that inode until
the delete finishes.

process B locks the the resource group for the same inode in get_local_rgrp(),
which is called by gfs2_inplace_reserve_i()

process A tries to lock the resource group for the inode in
gfs2_dinode_dealloc(), but it's already locked by process B

process B waits in find_inode for the inode to have the I_FREEING state cleared.

Deadlock.

This patch solves the problem by adding an alternative to gfs2_iget(),
gfs2_iget_skip(), that simply skips any inodes that are in the I_FREEING
state.o The alternate test function is just like the original one, except that
it fails if the inode is being freed, and sets a skipped flag. The alternate
set function is just like the original, except that it fails if the skipped
flag is set. Only try_rgrp_unlink() calls gfs2_iget_skip() instead of
gfs2_iget().

35dcc52e3a [GFS2] Remove i_mode passing from NFS File Handle
GFS2 has been passing i_mode within NFS File Handle. Other than the
wrong assumption that there is always room for this extra 16 bit value,
the current gfs2_get_dentry doesn't really need the i_mode to work
correctly. Note that GFS2 NFS code does go thru the same lookup code
path as direct file access route (where the mode is obtained from name
lookup) but gfs2_get_dentry() is coded for different purpose. It is not
used during lookup time. It is part of the file access procedure call.
When the call is invoked, if on-disk inode is not in-memory, it has to
be read-in. This makes i_mode passing a useless overhead.

d93cfa9884 [GFS2] Fix deallocation issues
There were two issues during deallocation of unlinked inodes. The
first was relating to the use of a "try" lock which in the case of
the inode lock wasn't trying hard enough to deallocate in all
circumstances (now changed to a normal glock) and in the case of
the iopen lock didn't wait for the demotion of the shared lock before
attempting to get the exclusive lock, and thereby sometimes (timing dependent)
not completing the deallocation when it should have done.

The second issue related to the lack of a way to invalidate dcache entries
on remote nodes (now fixed by this patch) which meant that unlinks were
taking a long time to return disk space to the fs. By adding some code to
invalidate the dcache entries across the cluster for unlinked inodes, that
is now fixed.

This patch was written jointly by Abhijith Das and Steven Whitehouse.

c8cdf47937 [GFS2] Recovery for lost unlinked inodes
Under certain circumstances its possible (though rather unlikely) that
inodes which were unlinked by one node while still open on another might
get "lost" in the sense that they don't get deallocated if the node
which held the inode open crashed before it was unlinked.

This patch adds the recovery code which allows automatic deallocation of
the inode if its found during block allocation (the sensible time to
look for such inodes since we are scanning the rgrp's bitmaps anyway at
this time, so it adds no overhead to do this).

Since the inode will have had its i_nlink set to zero, all we need to
trigger recovery is a lookup and an iput(), and the normal deallocation
code takes care of the rest.

bb8d8a6f54 [GFS2] Fix sign problem in quota/statfs and cleanup _host structures
This patch fixes some sign issues which were accidentally introduced
into the quota & statfs code during the endianess annotation process.
Also included is a general clean up which moves all of the _host
structures out of gfs2_ondisk.h (where they should not have been to
start with) and into the places where they are actually used (often only
one place). Also those _host structures which are not required any more
are removed entirely (which is the eventual plan for all of them).

The conversion routines from ondisk.c are also moved into the places
where they are actually used, which for almost every one, was just one
single place, so all those are now static functions. This also cleans up
the end of gfs2_ondisk.h which no longer needs the #ifdef __KERNEL__.

The net result is a reduction of about 100 lines of code, many functions
now marked static plus the bug fixes as mentioned above. For good
measure I ran the code through sparse after making these changes to
check that there are no warnings generated.

dbb7cae2a3 [GFS2] Clean up inode number handling
This patch cleans up the inode number handling code. The main difference
is that instead of looking up the inodes using a struct gfs2_inum_host
we now use just the no_addr member of this structure. The tests relating
to no_formal_ino can then be done by the calling code. This has
advantages in that we want to do different things in different code
paths if the no_formal_ino doesn't match. In the NFS patch we want to
return -ESTALE, but in the ->lookup() path, its a bug in the fs if the
no_formal_ino doesn't match and thus we can withdraw in this case.

In order to later fix bz #201012, we need to be able to look up an inode
without knowing no_formal_ino, as the only information that is known to
us is the on-disk location of the inode in question.

This patch will also help us to fix bz #236099 at a later date by
cleaning up a lot of the code in that area.

There are no user visible changes as a result of this patch and there
are no changes to the on-disk format either.

the rgrp twice. This fixes it by checking to see whether the rgrp
is already locked.

This fixes Red Hat bugzilla #221237

6c93fd1e57 [GFS2] BZ 217008 fsfuzzer fix.
Update the quilt header comments to match the
code changes.

Change gfs2_lookup_simple to return an error in the case
of a NULL inode.
The callers of gfs2_lookup_simple do not check for NULL
in the no entry case and such would end up dereferencing a NULL ptr.

This fixes:

5509826f1e [GFS2] Fix change nlink deadlock
Bugzilla 215088

Fix deadlock in gfs2_change_nlink() while installing RHEL5 into GFS2
partition. The gfs2_rename() apparently needs block allocation for the
new name (into the directory) where it requires rg locks. At the same
time, while updating the nlink count for the replaced file,
gfs2_change_nlink() tries to return the inode meta-data back to resource
group where it needs rg locks too. Our logic doesn't allow process to
acquire these locks recursively by the same process  (RHEL installer)
that results a BUG call. This only happens within rename code path and
only if the destination file exists before the rename operation.

dcd2479959 [GFS2] Remove unused function from inode.c
The gfs2_glock_nq_m_atime function is unused in so far as its only
ever called with num_gh = 1, and this falls through to the
gfs2_glock_nq_atime function, so we might as well call that directly.

9e2dbdac3d [GFS2] Remove gfs2_inode_attr_in
This function wasn't really doing the right thing. There was no need
to update the inode size at this point and the updating of the
i_blocks field has now been moved to the places where di_blocks is
updated. A result of this patch and some those preceeding it is that
unlocking a glock is now a much more efficient process, since there
is no longer any requirement to copy data from the gfs2 inode into
the vfs inode at this point.

6b124d8dba [GFS2] Only set inode flags when required
We were setting the inode flags from GFS2's flags far too often, even when they
couldn't possibly have changed. This patch reduces the amount of flag
setting going on so that we do it only when the inode is read in or
when the flags have changed. The create case is covered by the "when
the inode is read in" case.

This also fixes a bug where we didn't set S_SYNC correctly.

a9583c7983 [GFS2] Shrink gfs2_inode (7) - di_payload_format
This is almost never used. Its there for backward
compatibility with GFS1. It doesn't need its own
field since it can always be calculated from the
inode mode & flags. This saves a bit more space
in the gfs2_inode.
