Allow processes blocked on plock requests to be interrupted
when they are killed. This leaves the problem of cleaning
up the lock state in userspace. This has three parts:1. Add a flag to unlock operations sent to userspace
indicating the file is being closed. Userspace will
then look for and clear any waiting plock operations that
were abandoned by an interrupted process.2. Queue an unlock-close operation (like in 1) to clean up
userspace from an interrupted plock request. This is needed
because the vfs will not send a cleanup-unlock if it sees no
locks on the file, which it won't if the interrupted operation
was the only one.3. Do not use replies from userspace for unlock-close operations
because they are unnecessary (they are just cleaning up for the
process which did not make an unlock call). This also simplifies
the new unlock-close generated from point 2.Signed-off-by: David Teigland

GFS2: Wipe directory hash table metadata when deallocating a directory -
Peter is concerned about the extra scan of CLOCK_REALTIME_COS in the
timer interrupt. Yes, I did not think about it, because the solution
was so elegant. I didn't like the extra list in timerfd when it was
proposed some time ago, but with a rcu based list the list walk it's
less horrible than the original global lock, which was held over the
list iteration.Requested-by: Peter Zijlstra

Switch to debugging using dynamic printk (pr_debug()). There is no good reason
to carry custom debugging prints if there is so cool and powerful generic
dynamic printk infrastructure, see Documentation/dynamic-debug-howto.txt. With
dynamic printks we can switch on/of individual prints, per-file, per-function
and per format messages. This means that instead of doing old-fashionedecho 1 > /sys/module/ubifs/parameters/debug_msgs
to enable general messages, we can do:
echo 'format "UBIFS DBG gen" +ptlf' > control
to enable general messages and additionally ask the dynamic printk
infrastructure to print process ID, line number and function name. So there is
no reason to keep UBIFS-specific crud if there is more powerful generic thing.Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy

The ail flush code has always relied upon log flushing to prevent
it from spinning needlessly. This fixes it to wait on the last
I/O request submitted (we don't need to wait for all of it)
instead of either spinning with io_schedule or sleeping.As a result cpu usage of gfs2_logd is much reduced with certain
workloads.Reported-by: Abhijith Das

The deallocation code for directories in GFS2 is largely divided into
two parts. The first part deallocates any directory leaf blocks and
marks the directory as being a regular file when that is complete. The
second stage was identical to deallocating regular files.Regular files have their data blocks in a different
address space to directories, and thus what would have been normal data
blocks in a regular file (the hash table in a GFS2 directory) were
deallocated correctly. However, a reference to these blocks was left in the
journal (assuming of course that some previous activity had resulted in
those blocks being in the journal or ail list).This patch uses the i_depth as a test of whether the inode is an
exhash directory (we cannot test the inode type as that has already
been changed to a regular file at this stage in deallocation)The original issue was reported by Chris Hertel as an issue he encountered
running bonnie++Reported-by: Christopher R. Hertel

Commit e66eed651fd1 ("list: remove prefetching from regular list
iterators") removed the include of prefetch.h from list.h, which
uncovered several cases that had apparently relied on that rather
obscure header file dependency.So this fixes things up a bit, using
grep -L linux/prefetch.h $(git grep -l '[^a-z_]prefetchw*(' -- '*.[ch]')
grep -L 'prefetchw*(' $(git grep -l 'linux/prefetch.h' -- '*.[ch]')to guide us in finding files that either need
inclusion, or have it despite not needing it.There are more of them around (mostly network drivers), but this gets
many core ones.Reported-by: Stephen Rothwell

When allocating an extent that is long enough to consume the
remaining free space in an AG, we need to ensure that the allocation
leaves enough space in the AG for any subsequent bmap btree blocks
that are needed to track the new extent. These have to be allocated
in the same AG as we only reserve enough blocks in an allocation
transaction for modification of the freespace trees in a single AG.xfs_alloc_fix_minleft() has been considering blocks on the AGFL as
free blocks available for extent and bmbt block allocation, which is
not correct - blocks on the AGFL are there exclusively for the use
of the free space btrees. As a result, when minleft is less than the
number of blocks on the AGFL, xfs_alloc_fix_minleft() does not trim
the given extent to leave minleft blocks available for bmbt
allocation, and hence we can fail allocation during bmbt record
insertion.Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner

When we free a vmapped buffer, we need to ensure the vmap address
and length we free is the same as when it was allocated. In various
places in the log code we change the memory the buffer is pointing
to before issuing IO, but we never reset the buffer to point back to
it's original memory (or no memory, if that is the case for the
buffer).As a result, when we free the buffer it points to memory that is
owned by something else and attempts to unmap and free it. Because
the range does not match any known mapped range, it can trigger
BUG_ON() traps in the vmap code, and potentially corrupt the vmap
area tracking.Fix this by always resetting these buffers to their original state
before freeing them.Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner

When the underlying inode buffer is locked and xfs_sync_inode_attr()
is doing a non-blocking flush, xfs_iflush() can return EAGAIN. When
this happens, clear the error rather than returning it to
xfs_inode_ag_walk(), as returning EAGAIN will result in the AG walk
delaying for a short while and trying again. This can result in
background walks getting stuck on the one AG until inode buffer is
unlocked by some other means.This behaviour was noticed when analysing event traces followed by
code inspection and verification of the fix via further traces.Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner
