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.Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh

Call this the "inode_lock" now, since it covers both data and meta data.
This patch makes no functional changes.Signed-off-by: Mark 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.Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh
-
In order to extend inode lock coverage to inode data, we use the same data
downconvert worker with only a small modification to only do work for
regular files.Signed-off-by: Mark 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. All references to votes have been removed or updated.Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh

If we have not yet created a cluster lock, ocfs2_cluster_lock() will
first create it at NLMODE, and then convert the lock to either PRMODE or
EXMODE (whichever is requested).Change ocfs2_cluster_lock() to just create the lock at the initially
requested level. ocfs2_locking_ast() handles this case fine, so the only
update required was in setup of locking state. This should reduce the number
of network messages required for a new lock by one, providing an incremental
performance enhancement.Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh

Add the disk, network and memory structures needed to support data in inode.
Struct ocfs2_inline_data is defined and embedded in ocfs2_dinode for storing
inline data.A new inode field, i_dyn_features, is added to facilitate tracking of
dynamic inode state. Since it will be used often, we want to mirror it on
ocfs2_inode_info, and transfer it via the meta data lvb.Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh

The extent map code was ripped out earlier because of an inability to deal
with holes. This patch adds back a simpler caching scheme requiring far less
code.Our old extent map caching was designed back when meta data block caching in
Ocfs2 didn't work very well, resulting in many disk reads. These days our
metadata caching is much better, resulting in no un-necessary disk reads. As
a result, extent caching doesn't have to be as fancy, nor does it have to
cache as many extents. Keeping the last 3 extents seen should be sufficient
to give us a small performance boost on some streaming workloads.Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh
-
Older file systems which didn't support holes did a dumb calculation of
i_blocks based on i_size. This is no longer accurate, so fix things up to
take actual allocation into account.Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh
-
The code in extent_map.c is not prepared to deal with a subtree being
rotated between lookups. This can happen when filling holes in sparse files.
Instead of a lengthy patch to update the code (which would likely lose the
benefit of caching subtree roots), we remove most of the algorithms and
implement a simple path based lookup. A less ambitious extent caching scheme
will be added in a later patch.Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh

Ocfs2 currently does cluster-wide node messaging to check the open state of
an inode during delete. This patch removes that mechanism in favor of an
inode cluster lock which is taken at shared read when an inode is first read
and dropped in clear_inode(). This allows a deleting node to test the
liveness of an inode by attempting to take an exclusive lock.Signed-off-by: Tiger Yang

This allows users to format an ocfs2 file system with a special flag,
OCFS2_FEATURE_INCOMPAT_LOCAL_MOUNT. When the file system sees this flag, it
will not use any cluster services, nor will it require a cluster
configuration, thus acting like a 'local' file system.Signed-off-by: Sunil Mushran

The following patches reduce the size of the VFS inode structure by 28 bytes
on a UP x86. (It would be more on an x86_64 system). This is a 10% reduction
in the inode size on a UP kernel that is configured in a production mode
(i.e., with no spinlock or other debugging functions enabled; if you want to
save memory taken up by in-core inodes, the first thing you should do is
disable the debugging options; they are responsible for a huge amount of bloat
in the VFS inode structure).This patch:
The filesystem or device-specific pointer in the inode is inside a union,
which is pretty pointless given that all 30+ users of this field have been
using the void pointer. Get rid of the union and rename it to i_private, with
a comment to explain who is allowed to use the void pointer. This is just a
cleanup, but it allows us to reuse the union 'u' for something something where
the union will actually be used.[judith@osdl.org: powerpc build fix]

OCFS2 puts inode meta data in the "lock value block" provided by the DLM.
Typically, i_generation is encoded in the lock name so that a deleted inode
on and a new one in the same block don't share the same lvb.Unfortunately, that scheme means that the read in ocfs2_read_locked_inode()
is potentially thrown away as soon as the meta data lock is taken - we
cannot encode the lock name without first knowing i_generation, which
requires a disk read.This patch encodes i_generation in the inode meta data lvb, and removes the
value from the inode meta data lock name. This way, the read can be covered
by a lock, and at the same time we can distinguish between an up to date and
a stale LVB.This will help cold-cache stat(2) performance in particular.
Since this patch changes the protocol version, we take the opportunity to do
a minor re-organization of two of the LVB fields.Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh
-
When i_generation is removed from the lockname, this will help us determine
whether a meta data lvb has information that is in sync with the local

lvb_version doesn't need to be a whole 32 bits. Make it an 8 bit field to
