fs: dlm: wait until all midcomms nodes detect version
The current dlm version detection is very complex due to backwards compatablilty with earlier dlm protocol versions. It takes some time to detect if a peer node has a specific DLM version. If it's not detected, we just cut the socket connection. There could be cases where the local node has not detected the version yet, but the peer node has. In these cases, we are trying to shutdown the dlm connection with a FIN/ACK message exchange to be sure the other peer is ready to shutdown the connection on dlm application level. However this mechanism is only available on DLM protocol version 3.2 and we need to be sure the DLM version is detected before. To make it more robust we introduce a a "best effort" wait to wait for the version detection before shutdown the dlm connection. This need to be done before the kthread recoverd for recovery handling is stopped, because recovery handling will trigger enough messages to have a version detection going on. It is a corner case which was detected by modprobe dlm_locktroture module and rmmod dlm_locktorture module directly afterwards (in a looping behaviour). In practice probably nobody would leave a lockspace immediately after joining it. Signed-off-by: Alexander Aring <aahringo@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David Teigland <teigland@redhat.com>
