c4be0c1dc4 filesystem freeze: add error handling of write_super_lockfs/unlockfs
Currently, ext3 in mainline Linux doesn't have the freeze feature which
suspends write requests.  So, we cannot take a backup which keeps the
filesystem's consistency with the storage device's features (snapshot and
replication) while it is mounted.

In many case, a commercial filesystem (e.g.  VxFS) has the freeze feature
and it would be used to get the consistent backup.

If Linux's standard filesystem ext3 has the freeze feature, we can do it
without a commercial filesystem.

So I have implemented the ioctls of the freeze feature.
I think we can take the consistent backup with the following steps.
1. Freeze the filesystem with the freeze ioctl.
2. Separate the replication volume or create the snapshot
   with the storage device's feature.
3. Unfreeze the filesystem with the unfreeze ioctl.
4. Take the backup from the separated replication volume
   or the snapshot.

This patch:

VFS:
Changed the type of write_super_lockfs and unlockfs from "void"
to "int" so that they can return an error.
Rename write_super_lockfs and unlockfs of the super block operation
freeze_fs and unfreeze_fs to avoid a confusion.

ext3, ext4, xfs, gfs2, jfs:
Changed the type of write_super_lockfs and unlockfs from "void"
to "int" so that write_super_lockfs returns an error if needed,
and unlockfs always returns 0.

reiserfs:
Changed the type of write_super_lockfs and unlockfs from "void"
to "int" so that they always return 0 (success) to keep a current behavior.

c8f554b947 GFS2: Fix typo in gfs_page_mkwrite()
There is a typo in gfs2_page_mkwrite()

gfs2_write_alloc_required() expects pos to be the offset in bytes. However,
instead of the page index being shifted by by PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT, it was shifted
by (PAGE_CACHE_SIZE - inode->i_blkbits).  This patch simply shifts the page
index by the proper amount.

9a776db737 GFS2: Send useful information with uevent messages
In order to distinguish between two differing uevent messages
and to avoid using the (racy) method of reading status from
sysfs in future, this adds some status information to our
uevent messages.

Btw, before anybody says "sysfs isn't racy", I'm aware of that,
but the way that GFS2 was using it (send an ambiugous uevent and
then expect the receiver to read sysfs to find out the status
of the reported operation) was.

The additional benefit of using the new interface is that it
should be possible for a node to recover multiple journals
at the same time, since there is no longer any confusion as
to which journal the status belongs to.

At some future stage, when all the userland programs have been
converted, I intend to remove the old interface.

3af165ac4d GFS2: Fix use-after-free bug on umount
There was a use-after-free with the GFS2 super block during
umount. This patch moves almost all of the umount code from
->put_super into ->kill_sb, the only bit that cannot be moved
being the glock hash clearing which has to remain as ->put_super
due to umount ordering requirements. As a result its now obvious
that the kfree is the final operation, whereas before it was
hidden in ->put_super.

Also gfs2_jindex_free is then only referenced from a single file
so thats moved and marked static too.

97cc1025b1 GFS2: Kill two daemons with one patch
This patch removes the two daemons, gfs2_scand and gfs2_glockd
and replaces them with a shrinker which is called from the VM.

The net result is that GFS2 responds better when there is memory
pressure, since it shrinks the glock cache at the same rate
as the VFS shrinks the dcache and icache. There are no longer
any time based criteria for shrinking glocks, they are kept
until such time as the VM asks for more memory and then we
demote just as many glocks as required.

There are potential future changes to this code, including the
possibility of sorting the glocks which are to be written back
into inode number order, to get a better I/O ordering. It would
be very useful to have an elevator based workqueue implementation
for this, as that would automatically deal with the read I/O cases
at the same time.

This patch is my answer to Andrew Morton's remark, made during
the initial review of GFS2, asking why GFS2 needs so many kernel
threads, the answer being that it doesn't :-) This patch is a
net loss of about 200 lines of code.

813e0c46c9 GFS2: Fix "truncate in progress" hang
Following on from the recent clean up of gfs2_quotad, this patch moves
the processing of "truncate in progress" inodes from the glock workqueue
into gfs2_quotad. This fixes a hang due to the "truncate in progress"
processing requiring glocks in order to complete.

It might seem odd to use gfs2_quotad for this particular item, but
we have to use a pre-existing thread since creating a thread implies
a GFP_KERNEL memory allocation which is not allowed from the glock
workqueue context. Of the existing threads, gfs2_logd and gfs2_recoverd
may deadlock if used for this operation. gfs2_scand and gfs2_glockd are
both scheduled for removal at some (hopefully not too distant) future
point. That leaves only gfs2_quotad whose workload is generally fairly
light and is easily adapted for this extra task.

Also, as a result of this change, it opens the way for a future patch to
make the reading of the inode's information asynchronous with respect to
the glock workqueue, which is another improvement that has been on the list
for some time now.

37b2c8377c GFS2: Clean up & move gfs2_quotad
This patch is a clean up of gfs2_quotad prior to giving it an
extra job to do in addition to the current portfolio of updating
the quota and statfs information from time to time.

As a result it has been moved into quota.c allowing one of the
functions it calls to be made static. Also the clean up allows
the two existing functions to have separate timeouts and also
to coexist with its future role of dealing with the "truncate in
progress" inode flag.

The (pointless) setting of gfs2_quotad_secs is removed since we
arrange to only wake up quotad when one of the two timers expires.

In addition the struct gfs2_quota_data is moved into a slab cache,
mainly for easier debugging. It should also be possible to use
a shrinker in the future, rather than the current scheme of scanning
the quota data entries from time to time.

This patch implements the FIEMAP ioctl for GFS2. We can use the generic

This has been tested with a modified (I could only find an old version) of

54566b2c15 fs: symlink write_begin allocation context fix
With the write_begin/write_end aops, page_symlink was broken because it
could no longer pass a GFP_NOFS type mask into the point where the
allocations happened.  They are done in write_begin, which would always
assume that the filesystem can be entered from reclaim.  This bug could
cause filesystem deadlocks.

The funny thing with having a gfp_t mask there is that it doesn't really
allow the caller to arbitrarily tinker with the context in which it can be
called.  It couldn't ever be GFP_ATOMIC, for example, because it needs to
take the page lock.  The only thing any callers care about is __GFP_FS
anyway, so turn that into a single flag.

Add a new flag for write_begin, AOP_FLAG_NOFS.  Filesystems can now act on
this flag in their write_begin function.  Change __grab_cache_page to
accept a nofs argument as well, to honour that flag (while we're there,
change the name to grab_cache_page_write_begin which is more instructive
and does away with random leading underscores).

This is really a more flexible way to go in the end anyway -- if a
filesystem happens to want any extra allocations aside from the pagecache
ones in ints write_begin function, it may now use GFP_KERNEL (rather than
GFP_NOFS) for common case allocations (eg.  ocfs2_alloc_write_ctxt, for a
random example).

254db57f9b GFS2: Support for I/O barriers
This patch adds barrier support to GFS2. There is not a lot of change
really... we just add the barrier flag when we write journal header
blocks. If the underlying device refuses to support them, we fall back
to the previous way of doing things (wait for the I/O and hope) since
there is nothing else we can do. There is no user configuration,
barriers will always be on unless the device refuses to support them.
This seems a reasonable solution to me since this is a correctness
issue.

719ee34467 GFS2: high time to take some time over atime
Until now, we've used the same scheme as GFS1 for atime. This has failed
since atime is a per vfsmnt flag, not a per fs flag and as such the
"noatime" flag was not getting passed down to the filesystems. This
patch removes all the "special casing" around atime updates and we
simply use the VFS's atime code.

The net result is that GFS2 will now support all the same atime related
mount options of any other filesystem on a per-vfsmnt basis. We do lose
the "lazy atime" updates, but we gain "relatime". We could add lazy
atime to the VFS at a later date, if there is a requirement for that
variant still - I suspect relatime will be enough.

Also we lose about 100 lines of code after this patch has been applied,
and I have a suspicion that it will speed things up a bit, even when
atime is "on". So it seems like a nice clean up as well.

From a user perspective, everything stays the same except the loss of
the per-fs atime quantum tweekable (ought to be per-vfsmnt at the very
least, and to be honest I don't think anybody ever used it) and that a
number of options which were ignored before now work correctly.

Please let me know if you've got any comments. I'm pushing this out
early so that you can all see what my plans are.

37ec89e83c GFS2: The war on bloat
The following patch shrinks the gfs2_args structure which is embedded in
every GFS2 superblock. It cuts down the size of the options to a single
unsigned int (the 13 bits of bitfields will be rounded up to that size
by the compiler) from the current 11 unsigned ints. So on x86 thats 44
bytes shrinking to 4 bytes, in each and every GFS2 superblock.

The gfs2 superblock pointer is NULL after a failed mount. When control

bd1eb8818c GFS2: Use an IS_ERR test rather than a NULL test
In case of error, the function gfs2_inode_lookup returns an
ERR pointer, but never returns a NULL pointer. So a NULL test that
necessarily comes after an IS_ERR test should be deleted, and a NULL
test that may come after a call to this function should be
strengthened by an IS_ERR test.

The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows:
(http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/)

// <smpl>

dff5257473 GFS2: Fix race relating to glock min-hold time
In the case that a request for a glock arrives right after the
grant reply has arrived, it sometimes means that the gl_tstamp
field hasn't been updated recently enough. The net result is that
the min-hold time for the glock is ignored. If this happens
often enough, it leads to poor performance.

This patch adds an additional test, so that if the reply pending
bit is set on a glock, then it will select the maximum length of
time for the min-hold time, rather than looking at gl_tstamp.

9b8df98fc8 GFS2: Fix metafs mounts
This patch is intended to fix the issues reported in bz #457798. Instead
of having the metafs as a separate filesystem, it becomes a second root
of gfs2. As a result it will appear as type gfs2 in /proc/mounts, but it
is still possible (for backwards compatibility purposes) to mount it as
type gfs2meta. A new mount flag "meta" is introduced so that its possible
to tell the two cases apart in /proc/mounts.

As a result it becomes possible to mount type gfs2 with -o meta and
get the same result as mounting type gfs2meta. So it is possible to
mount just the metafs on its own. Currently if you do this, its then
impossible to mount the "normal" root of the gfs2 filesystem without
first unmounting the metafs root. I'm not sure if thats a feature or
a bug :-)

Either way, this is a great improvement on the previous scheme and I've
verified that it works ok with bind mounts on both the "normal" root
and the metafs root in various combinations.

There were also a bunch of functions in super.c which didn't belong there,
so this moves them into ops_fstype.c where they can be static. Hopefully
the mount/umount sequence is now more obvious as a result.

209806aba9 [GFS2] Allow local DF locks when holding a cached EX glock
We already allow local SH locks while we hold a cached EX glock, so here
we allow DF locks as well. This works only because we rely on the VFS's
invalidation for locally cached data, and because if we hold an EX lock,
then we know that no other node can be caching data relating to this
file.

It dramatically speeds up initial writes to O_DIRECT files since we fall
back to buffered I/O for this and would otherwise bounce between DF and
EX modes on each and every write call. The lessons to be learned from
that are to ensure that (for the time being anyway) O_DIRECT files are
preallocated and that they are written to using reasonably large I/O
sizes. Even so this change fixes that corner case nicely

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.

9465efc9e9 Remove BKL from remote_llseek v2
- Replace remote_llseek with generic_file_llseek_unlocked (to force compilation
failures in all users)
- Change all users to either use generic_file_llseek_unlocked directly or
take the BKL around. I changed the file systems who don't use the BKL
for anything (CIFS, GFS) to call it directly. NCPFS and SMBFS and NFS
take the BKL, but explicitely in their own source now.

I moved them all over in a single patch to avoid unbisectable sections.

Open problem: 32bit kernels can corrupt fpos because its modification
is not atomic, but they can do that anyways because there's other paths who
modify it without BKL.

Do we need a special lock for the pos/f_version = 0 checks?

Trond says the NFS BKL is likely not needed, but keep it for now
until his full audit.

v2: Use generic_file_llseek_unlocked instead of remote_llseek_unlocked
    and factor duplicated code (suggested by hch)

1bdad60633 [GFS2] Remove remote lock dropping code
There are several reasons why this is undesirable:

 1. It never happens during normal operation anyway
 2. If it does happen it causes performance to be very, very poor
 3. It isn't likely to solve the original problem (memory shortage
    on remote DLM node) it was supposed to solve
 4. It uses a bunch of arbitrary constants which are unlikely to be
    correct for any particular situation and for which the tuning seems
    to be a black art.
 5. In an N node cluster, only 1/N of the dropped locked will actually
    contribute to solving the problem on average.

So all in all we are better off without it. This also makes merging
the lock_dlm module into GFS2 a bit easier.

9171f5a991 [GFS2] kernel panic mounting volume
This patch fixes Red Hat bugzilla bug 450156.

This started with a not-too-improbable mount failure because the
locking protocol was never set back to its proper "lock_dlm" after the
system was rebooted in the middle of a gfs2_fsck.  That left a
(purposely) invalid locking protocol in the superblock, which caused an
error when the file system was mounted the next time.

When there's an error mounting, vfs calls DQUOT_OFF, which calls
vfs_quota_off which calls gfs2_sync_fs.  Next, gfs2_sync_fs calls
gfs2_log_flush passing s_fs_info.  But due to the error, s_fs_info
had been previously set to NULL, and so we have the kernel oops.

My solution in this patch is to test for the NULL value before passing
it.  I tested this patch and it fixes the problem.

This patch avoids the problem by unlocking the page and getting the
locks in the correct order. This means that we have to retest the

things moving from one file to another. The change is just that
instead of queuing lock completions and callbacks from the DLM

This gives us a net loss of two list heads per glock (a fair
saving in memory) plus a reduction in the latency of delivering

This patch implements a number of cleanups to the core of the
GFS2 glock code. As a result a lot of code is removed. It looks
like a really big change, but actually a large part of this patch
is either removing or moving existing code.

There are some new bits too though, such as the new run_queue()
function which is considerably streamlined. Highlights of this
patch include:

 o Fixes a cluster coherency bug during SH -> EX lock conversions
 o Removes the "glmutex" code in favour of a single bit lock
 o Removes the ->go_xmote_bh() for inodes since it was duplicating
   ->go_lock()
 o We now only use the ->lm_lock() function for both locks and
   unlocks (i.e. unlock is a lock with target mode LM_ST_UNLOCKED)
 o The fast path is considerably shortly, giving performance gains
   especially with lock_nolock
 o The glock_workqueue is now used for all the callbacks from the DLM
   which allows us to simplify the lock_dlm module (see following patch)
 o The way is now open to make further changes such as eliminating the two
   threads (gfs2_glockd and gfs2_scand) in favour of a more efficient
   scheme.

This patch has undergone extensive testing with various test suites
so it should be pretty stable by now.

This patch fixes bz 450641.

This patch changes the computation for zero_metapath_length(), which it
renames to metapath_branch_start(). When you are extending the metadata
tree, The indirect blocks that point to the new data block must either
diverge from the existing tree either at the inode, or at the first
indirect block. They can diverge at the first indirect block because the
inode has room for 483 pointers while the indirect blocks have room for
509 pointers, so when the tree is grown, there is some free space in the
first indirect block. What metapath_branch_start() now computes is the
height where the first indirect block for the new data block is located.
It can either be 1 (if the indirect block diverges from the inode) or 2
(if it diverges from the first indirect block).

58e9fee13e [GFS2] Invalidate cache at correct point
GFS2 wasn't invalidating its cache before it called into the lock manager
with a request that could potentially drop a lock.  This was leaving a
window where the lock could be actually be held by another node, but the
file's page cache would still appear valid, causing coherency problems.
This patch moves the cache invalidation to before the lock manager call
when dropping a lock. It also adds the option to the lock_dlm lock
manager to not use conversion mode deadlock avoidance, which, on a
conversion from shared to exclusive, could internally drop the lock, and
then reacquire in. GFS2 now asks lock_dlm to not do this.  Instead, GFS2
manually drops the lock and reacquires it.

9b8c81d1de [GFS2] Allow bmap to allocate extents
We've supported mapping of extents when no block allocation is required
for some time. This patch extends that to mapping of extents when an
allocation has been requested. In that case we try to allocate as many
blocks as are requested, but we might return fewer in case there is
something preventing us from returning the complete amount (e.g. an
already allocated block is in the way).

Currently the only code path which can actually request multiple data
blocks in a single bmap call is the page_mkwrite path and even then it
only happens if there are multiple blocks per page. What this patch does
do however, is merge the allocation requests for metadata (growing the
metadata tree in either height or depth) with the allocation of the data
blocks in the case that both are needed. This results in lower overheads
even in the single block allocation case.

The one thing which we can't handle here at the moment is unstuffing. I
would like to be able to do that, but the problem which arises is that
in order to unstuff one has to get a locked page from the page cache
which results in locking problems in the (usual) case that the caller is
holding the page lock on the page it wishes to map. So that case will
have to be addressed in future patches.

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.

Rather than having to allocate a single block at a time, this patch
allows the block allocator to allocate an extent. Since there is

I noticed that the latest change to i_height got rid of the
value from the inode dump.  This patch adds it back.

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).

941e6d7d09 [GFS2] Speed up gfs2_write_alloc_required, deprecate gfs2_extent_map
This patch removes the call to gfs2_extent_map from gfs2_write_alloc_required,
instead we call gfs2_block_map directly. This results in fewer overall calls
to gfs2_block_map in the multi-block case.

Also, gfs2_extent_map is marked as deprecated so that people know that its
going away as soon as all the callers have been converted.

4ac9137858 Embed a struct path into struct nameidata instead of nd->{dentry,mnt}
This is the central patch of a cleanup series. In most cases there is no good
reason why someone would want to use a dentry for itself. This series reflects
that fact and embeds a struct path into nameidata.

Together with the other patches of this series
- it enforced the correct order of getting/releasing the reference count on
  <dentry,vfsmount> pairs
- it prepares the VFS for stacking support since it is essential to have a
  struct path in every place where the stack can be traversed
- it reduces the overall code size:

without patch series:
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
5321639  858418  715768 6895825  6938d1 vmlinux

with patch series:
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
5320026  858418  715768 6894212  693284 vmlinux

This patch:

Switch from nd->{dentry,mnt} to nd->path.{dentry,mnt} everywhere.

eebd2aa355 Pagecache zeroing: zero_user_segment, zero_user_segments and zero_user
Simplify page cache zeroing of segments of pages through 3 functions

zero_user_segments(page, start1, end1, start2, end2)

        Zeros two segments of the page. It takes the position where to
        start and end the zeroing which avoids length calculations and
	makes code clearer.

zero_user_segment(page, start, end)

        Same for a single segment.

zero_user(page, start, length)

        Length variant for the case where we know the length.

We remove the zero_user_page macro. Issues:

1. Its a macro. Inline functions are preferable.

2. The KM_USER0 macro is only defined for HIGHMEM.

   Having to treat this special case everywhere makes the
   code needlessly complex. The parameter for zeroing is always
   KM_USER0 except in one single case that we open code.

Avoiding KM_USER0 makes a lot of code not having to be dealing
with the special casing for HIGHMEM anymore. Dealing with
kmap is only necessary for HIGHMEM configurations. In those
configurations we use KM_USER0 like we do for a series of other
functions defined in highmem.h.

Since KM_USER0 is depends on HIGHMEM the existing zero_user_page
function could not be a macro. zero_user_* functions introduced
here can be be inline because that constant is not used when these
functions are called.

Also extract the flushing of the caches to be outside of the kmap.

7bc5c414fe [GFS2] Allow journal recovery on read-only mount
This patch allows gfs2 to perform journal recovery even if it is mounted
read-only. Strictly speaking, a read-only mount should not be writing to
the filesystem, but we do this only to perform journal recovery. A
read-only mount will fail if we don't recover the dirty journal. Also,
when gfs2 is used as a root filesystem, it will be mounted read-only
before being mounted read-write during the boot sequence. A failed
read-only mount will panic the machine during bootup.

b7fe2e391e [GFS2] Fix page_mkwrite truncation race path
There was a bug in the truncation/invalidation race path for
->page_mkwrite for gfs2. It ought to return 0 so that the effect is the
same as if the page was truncated at any of the other points at which
the page_lock is dropped. This will result in the restart of the whole
page fault path. If it was due to a real truncation (as opposed to an
invalidate because we let a glock go) then the ->fault path will pick
that up when it gets called again.

0522053519 [GFS2] gfs2_alloc_required performance
This is a small I/O performance enhancement to gfs2.  (Actually, it is a rework of
an earlier version I got wrong).  The idea here is to check if the write extends
past the last block in the file.  If so, the function can save itself a lot of
time and trouble because it knows an allocate will be required.  Benchmarks like
iozone should see better performance.

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.

This patch fixes a couple of problems which affected the execution of files
on GFS2. The first is that there was a corner case where inodes were not
always uptodate at the point at which permissions checks were being carried
out, this was resulting in refusal of execute permission, but only on the
first lookup, subsequent requests worked correctly. The second was a problem
relating to incorrect updating of file sizes which was introduced with the
