Second round of gfs2_rename lock re-ordering to allow Anaconda adding root partition on top of gfs2. Previous to this patch the recursive lock detector in glock.c can be triggered due to attempting to lock the rgrp twice. This fixes it by checking to see whether the rgrp is already locked.

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.

2007-02-05[GFS2] Fix ordering of page disposal vs. glock_dqSteven Whitehouse1-0/+6
In case of unlinked files with dirty pages GFS2 wasn't clearing the pages in quite the right order. This patch clears the pages earlier (before the qlock_dq) to avoid the situation that the release of the glock results in attempting to write back data that has already been deallocated.

2007-02-05[GFS2] Fix change nlink deadlockS. Wendy Cheng3-7/+39
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. Signed-off-by: S.

2007-02-05[GFS2] Fail over to readpage for stuffed filesSteven Whitehouse1-25/+3
This is partially derrived from a patch written by Russell Cattelan. It fixes a bug where there is a race between readpages and truncate by ignoring readpages for stuffed files. This is ok because a stuffed file will never be more than one block (minus sizeof(struct gfs2_dinode)) in size and block size is always less than page size, so we do not lose anything efficiency-wise by not doing readahead for stuffed files. They will have already been "read ahead" by the action of reading the inode in, in the first place. This is the remaining part of the fix for Red Hat bugzilla #218966 which had not yet made it upstream.

2007-02-05[GFS2] Fix DIO deadlockSteven Whitehouse1-29/+45
This patch fixes Red Hat bugzilla #212627 in which a deadlock occurs due to trying to take the i_mutex while holding a glock. The correct locking order is defined as i_mutex -> glock in all cases. I've left dealing with allocating writes. I know that we need to do that, but for now this should do the trick. We don't need to take the i_mutex on write, because the VFS has already taken it for us. On read we don't need it since the glock is enough protection. The reason that I've made some of the checks into a separate function is that we'll need to do the checks again in the allocating write case eventually, so this is partly in preparation for this. Likewise the return value test of != 1 might look a bit odd and thats because we'll need a third return value in case of requiring an allocation. I've made the change to deferred mode on the glock to ensure flushing read caches on other nodes. I notice that (using blktrace to look at whats going on) we appear to do a better job of large I/Os than ext3 after this patch (in terms of not splitting up the I/Os).

2007-02-05[DLM] fix lost flags in stub repliesDavid Teigland1-0/+3
When the dlm fakes an unlock/cancel reply from a failed node using a stub message struct, it wasn't setting the flags in the stub message. So, in the process of receiving the fake message the lkb flags would be updated and cleared from the zero flags in the message. The problem observed in tests was the loss of the USER flag which caused the dlm to think a user lock was a kernel lock and subsequently fail an assertion checking the validity of the ast/callback field.

2007-02-05[DLM] fix receive_request() lvb copyingDavid Teigland1-2/+6
LVB's are not sent as part of new requests, but the code receiving the request was copying data into the lvb anyway. The space in the message where it mistakenly thought the lvb lived actually contained the resource name, so it wound up incorrectly copying this name data into the lvb. Fix is to just create the lvb, not copy junk into it. Signed-off-by: David Teigland <teigland@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2007-02-05[DLM] fix send_args() lvb copyingDavid Teigland1-4/+16
The send_args() function is used to copy parameters into a message for a number different message types. Only some of those types are set up beforehand (in create_message) to include space for sending lvb data. send_args was wrongly copying the lvb for all message types as long as the lock had an lvb. This means that the lvb data was being written past the end of the message into unknown space.

2007-02-05[DLM] fix old rcom messagesDavid Teigland3-25/+46
A reply to a recovery message will often be received after the relevant recovery sequence has aborted and the next recovery sequence has begun. We need to ignore replies to these old messages from the previous recovery. There's already a way to do this for synchronous recovery requests using the rc_id number, but not for async. Each recovery sequence already has a locally unique sequence number associated with it. This patch adds a field to the rcom (recovery message) structure where this recovery sequence number can be placed, rc_seq. When a node sends a reply to a recovery request, it copies the rc_seq number it received into rc_seq_reply. When the first node receives the reply to its recovery message, it will check whether rc_seq_reply matches the current recovery sequence number, ls_recover_seq, and if not then it ignores the old reply. An old, inadequate approach to filtering out old replies (checking if the current stage of recovery has moved back to the start) has been removed from two spots. The protocol version number is changed to reflect the different rcom structures. Signed-off-by: David Teigland <teigland@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2007-02-05[DLM] fix resend rcom lockDavid Teigland1-1/+9
There's a chance the new master of resource hasn't learned it's the new master before another node sends it a lock during recovery. The node sending the lock needs to resend if this happens. - A sends a master lookup for resource R to C - B sends a master lookup for resource R to C - C receives A's lookup, assigns A to be master of R and sends a reply back to A - C receives B's lookup and sends a reply back to B saying that A is the master - B receives lookup reply from C and sends its lock for R to A - A receives lock from B, doesn't think it's the master of R and sends an error back to B - A receives lookup reply from C and becomes master of R - B gets error back from A and resends its lock back to A (this resending is what this patch does) - A receives lock from B, it now sees it's the master of R and takes the lock Signed-off-by: David Teigland <teigland@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

However, aio_complete() called from I/O interrupt can potentially call put_ioctx with last ref count on ioctx and triggers bug. It is simply incorrect to perform ioctx freeing from aio_complete. The bug is trigger-able from a race between io_destroy() and aio_complete(). A possible scenario: cpu0 cpu1 io_destroy aio_complete wait_for_all_aios { __aio_put_req ... ctx->reqs_active--; if (!ctx->reqs_active) return; } ... put_ioctx(ioctx) put_ioctx(ctx); __put_ioctx bam! Bug trigger! The real problem is that the condition check of ctx->reqs_active in wait_for_all_aios() is incorrect that access to reqs_active is not being properly protected by spin lock. This patch adds that protective spin lock, and at the same time removes all duplicate ref counting for each kiocb as reqs_active is already used as a ref count for each active ioctx. This also ensures that buggy call to flush_workqueue() in softirq context is eliminated.

2007-01-27[PATCH] knfsd: Fix type mismatch with filldir_t used by nfsdNeilBrown4-10/+13
nfsd defines a type 'encode_dent_fn' which is much like 'filldir_t' except that the first pointer is 'struct readdir_cd *' rather than 'void *'. It then casts encode_dent_fn points to 'filldir_t' as needed. This hides any other type mismatches between the two such as the fact that the 'ino' arg recently changed from ino_t to u64. So: get rid of 'encode_dent_fn', get rid of the cast of the function type, change the first arg of various functions from 'struct readdir_cd *' to 'void *', and live with the fact that we have a little less type checking on the calling of these functions now. Less internal (to nfsd) checking offset by more external checking, which is more important. Thanks to Gabriel Paubert <paubert@iram.es> for discovering this and providing an initial patch.

2007-01-27[PATCH] knfsd: Don't mess with the 'mode' when storing a exclusive-create cookiePeter Staubach1-16/+5
NFS V3 (and V4) support exclusive create by passing a 'cookie' which can get stored with the file. If the file exists but has exactly the right cookie stored, then we assume this is a retransmit and the exclusive create was successful. The cookie is 64bits and is traditionally stored in the mtime and atime fields. This causes a problem with Solaris7 as negative mtime or atime confuse it. So we moved two bits into the mode word instead. But inherited ACLs sometimes overwrite the mode word on create, so this is a problem. So we give up and just store 62 of the 64 bits and assume that is close enough.

2007-01-27[PATCH] knfsd: fix an NFSD bug with full sized, non-page-aligned readsNeilBrown1-1/+2
NFSd assumes that largest number of pages that will be needed for a request+response is 2+N where N pages is the size of the largest permitted read/write request. The '2' are 1 for the non-data part of the request, and 1 for the non-data part of the reply. However, when a read request is not page-aligned, and we choose to use ->sendfile to send it directly from the page cache, we may need N+1 pages to hold the whole reply. This can overflow and array and cause an Oops. This patch increases size of the array for holding pages by one and makes sure that entry is NULL when it is not in use.

2007-01-27[PATCH] i386 vDSO: use VM_ALWAYSDUMPRoland McGrath1-3/+35
This patch fixes core dumps to include the vDSO vma, which is left out now. It removes the special-case core writing macros, which were not doing the right thing for the vDSO vma anyway. Instead, it uses VM_ALWAYSDUMP in the vma; there is no need for the fixmap page to be installed. It handles the CONFIG_COMPAT_VDSO case by making elf_core_dump use the fake vma from get_gate_vma after real vmas in the same way the /proc/PID/maps code does. This changes core dumps so they no longer include the non-PT_LOAD phdrs from the vDSO. I made the change to add them in the first place, but in turned out that nothing ever wanted them there since the advent of NT_AUXV. It's cleaner to leave them out, and just let the phdrs inside the vDSO image speak for themselves.

2007-01-26Write back inode data pages even when the inode itself is lockedLinus Torvalds1-1/+12
In __writeback_single_inode(), when we find a locked inode and we're not doing a data-integrity sync, we used to just skip writing entirely, since we didn't want to wait for the inode to unlock. However, there's really no reason to skip writing the data pages, which are likely to be the the bulk of the dirty state anyway (and the main reason why writeback was started for the non-data-integrity case, of course!)

2007-01-26Resurrect 'try_to_free_buffers()' VM hackeryLinus Torvalds1-1/+14
It's not pretty, but it appears that ext3 with data=journal will clean pages without ever actually telling the VM that they are clean. This, in turn, will result in the VM (and balance_dirty_pages() in particular) to never realize that the pages got cleaned, and wait forever for an event that already happened. Technically, this seems to be a problem with ext3 itself, but it used to be hidden by 'try_to_free_buffers()' noticing this situation on its own, and just working around the filesystem problem. This commit re-instates that hack, in order to avoid a regression for the 2.6.20 release. This fixes bugzilla 7844: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7844 Peter Zijlstra points out that we should probably retain the debugging code that this removes from cancel_dirty_page(), and I agree, but for the imminent release we might as well just silence the warning too (since it's not a new bug: anything that triggers that warning has been around forever).

2007-01-23[PATCH] resierfs: avoid tail packing if an inode was ever mmappedVladimir Saveliev2-1/+21
This patch fixes a confusion reiserfs has for a long time. On release file operation reiserfs used to try to pack file data stored in last incomplete page of some files into metadata blocks. After packing the page got cleared with clear_page_dirty. It did not take into account that the page may be mmaped into other process's address space. Recent replacement for clear_page_dirty cancel_dirty_page found the confusion with sanity check that page has to be not mapped. The patch fixes the confusion by making reiserfs avoid tail packing if an inode was ever mmapped. reiserfs_mmap and reiserfs_file_release are serialized with mutex in reiserfs specific inode. reiserfs_mmap locks the mutex and sets a bit in reiserfs specific inode flags. reiserfs_file_release checks the bit having the mutex locked. If bit is set - tail packing is avoided. This eliminates a possibility that mmapped page gets cancel_page_dirty-ed.
