2008-01-28[NETNS]: Consolidate kernel netlink socket destruction.Denis V. Lunev
Create a specific helper for netlink kernel socket disposal. This just let the code look better and provides a ground for proper disposal inside a namespace. Signed-off-by: Denis V.

2008-01-28[ATM]: Oops reading net/atm/arpDenis V. Lunev
cat /proc/net/atm/arp causes the NULL pointer dereference in the get_proc_net+0xc/0x3a. This happens as proc_get_net believes that the parent proc dir entry contains struct net. Fix this assumption for "net/atm" case. The problem is introduced by the commit c0097b07abf5f92ab135d024dd41bd2aada1512f from Eric W. Biederman/Daniel Lezcano. Signed-off-by: Denis V.

2008-01-28cfq-iosched: relax IOPRIO_CLASS_IDLE restrictionsJens Axboe
Currently you must be root to set idle io prio class on a process. This is due to the fact that the idle class is implemented as a true idle class, meaning that it will not make progress if someone else is requesting disk access. Unfortunately this means that it opens DOS opportunities by locking down file system resources, hence it is root only at the moment. This patch relaxes the idle class a little, by removing the truly idle part (which entals a grace period with associated timer). The modifications make the idle class as close to zero impact as can be done while still guarenteeing progress. This means we can relax the root only criteria as well.

2008-01-25ocfs2/dlm: Clear joining_node on hearbeat node downTao Ma
Currently the process of dlm join contains 2 steps: query join and assert join. After query join, the joined node will set its joining_node. So if the joining node happens to panic before the 2nd step, the joined node will fail to clear its joining_node flag because that node isn't in the domain map. It at least cause 2 problems. 1. All the new join request will fail. So no new node can mount the volume. 2. The joined node can't umount the volume since during the umount process it has to wait for the joining_node to be unknown. So the umount will be hanged. The solution is to clear the joining_node before we check the domain map. Signed-off-by: Tao Ma <tao.ma@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>

2008-01-25[PATCH 2/2] ocfs2: cluster aware flock()Mark Fasheh
Hook up ocfs2_flock(), using the new flock lock type in dlmglue.c. A new mount option, "localflocks" is added so that users can revert to old functionality as need be. Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>
2008-01-25[PATCH 1/2] ocfs2: add flock lock typeMark Fasheh
This adds a new dlmglue lock type which is intended to back flock() requests. Since these locks are driven from userspace, usage rules are much more liberal than the typical Ocfs2 internal cluster lock. As a result, we can't make use of most dlmglue features - lock caching and lock level optimizations in particular. Additionally, userspace is free to deadlock itself, so we have to deal with that in the same way as the rest of the kernel - by allowing a signal to abort a lock request. In order to keep ocfs2_cluster_lock() complexity down, ocfs2_file_lock() does it's own dlm coordination. We still use the same helper functions though, so duplicated code is kept to a minimum.

2008-01-25ocfs2: Local alloc window size changeable via mount optionSunil Mushran
Local alloc is a performance optimization in ocfs2 in which a node takes a window of bits from the global bitmap and then uses that for all small local allocations. This window size is fixed to 8MB currently. This patch allows users to specify the window size in MB including disabling it by passing in 0. If the number specified is too large, the fs will use the default value of 8MB. mount -o localalloc=X /dev/sdX /mntpoint Signed-off-by: Sunil Mushran <sunil.mushran@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>
2008-01-25ocfs2: Support commit= mount optionMark Fasheh
Mostly taken from ext3. This allows the user to set the jbd commit interval, in seconds. The default of 5 seconds stays the same, but now users can easily increase the commit interval. Typically, this would be increased in order to benefit performance at the expense of data-safety. Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>

2008-01-25[PATCH 2/2] ocfs2: Implement group add for online resizeTao Ma
This patch adds the ability for a userspace program to request that a properly formatted cluster group be added to the main allocation bitmap for an Ocfs2 file system. The request is made via an ioctl, OCFS2_IOC_GROUP_ADD. On a high level, this is similar to ext3, but we use a different ioctl as the structure which has to be passed through is different. During an online resize, tunefs.ocfs2 will format any new cluster groups which must be added to complete the resize, and call OCFS2_IOC_GROUP_ADD on each one. Kernel verifies that the core cluster group information is valid and then does the work of linking it into the global allocation bitmap.

2008-01-25[PATCH 1/2] ocfs2: Add group extend for online resizeTao Ma
This patch adds the ability for a userspace program to request an extend of last cluster group on an Ocfs2 file system. The request is made via ioctl, OCFS2_IOC_GROUP_EXTEND. This is derived from EXT3_IOC_GROUP_EXTEND, but is obviously Ocfs2 specific. tunefs.ocfs2 would call this for an online-resize operation if the last cluster group isn't full.

2008-01-25ocfs2: Initalize bitmap_cpg of ocfs2_super to be the maximum.Tao Ma
This value is initialized from global_bitmap->id2.i_chain.cl_cpg. If there is only 1 group, it will be equal to the total clusters in the volume. So as for online resize, it should change for all the nodes in the cluster. It isn't easy and there is no corresponding lock for it. bitmap_cpg is only used in 2 areas: 1. Check whether the suballoc is too large for us to allocate from the global bitmap, so it is little used. And now the suballoc size is 2048, it rarely meet this situation and the check is almost useless. 2. Calculate which group a cluster belongs to. We use it during truncate to figure out which cluster group an extent belongs too. But we should be OK if we increase it though as the cluster group calculated shouldn't change and we only ever have a small bitmap_cpg on file systems with a single cluster group.

2008-01-25ocfs2: Remove data locksMark Fasheh
The meta lock now covers both meta data and data, so this just removes the now-redundant data lock. Combining locks saves us a round of lock mastery per inode and one less lock to ping between nodes during read/write. We don't lose much - since meta locks were always held before a data lock (and at the same level) ordered writeout mode (the default) ensured that flushing for the meta data lock also pushed out data anyways.

2008-01-25ocfs2: Remove mount/unmount votesMark Fasheh
The node maps that are set/unset by these votes are no longer relevant, thus we can remove the mount and umount votes. Since those are the last two remaining votes, we can also remove the entire vote infrastructure. The vote thread has been renamed to the downconvert thread, and the small amount of functionality related to managing it has been moved into fs/ocfs2/dlmglue.c.

2008-01-25ocfs2: Remove fs dependency on ocfs2_heartbeat moduleMark Fasheh

2008-01-25Preempt-RCU: implementationPaul E. McKenney
This patch implements a new version of RCU which allows its read-side critical sections to be preempted. It uses a set of counter pairs to keep track of the read-side critical sections and flips them when all tasks exit read-side critical section. The details of this implementation can be found in this paper - http://www.rdrop.com/users/paulmck/RCU/OLSrtRCU.2006.08.11a.pdf and the article- http://lwn.net/Articles/253651/ This patch was developed as a part of the -rt kernel development and meant to provide better latencies when read-side critical sections of RCU don't disable preemption. As a consequence of keeping track of RCU readers, the readers have a slight overhead (optimizations in the paper). This implementation co-exists with the "classic" RCU implementations and can be switched to at compiler. Also includes RCU tracing summarized in debugfs.

2008-01-25[GFS2] Allow journal recovery on read-only mountAbhijith Das
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.

I spotted this bug while I was digging around. Looks like it could cause a lockup in some rare error condition. Signed-off-by: Bob Peterson <rpeterso@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
