  • After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
    recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
    There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
    anything defined in there. Presumably these includes were once needed for
    macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
    course of cleaning it up.

    To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
    removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.

    Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
    arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
    allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
    configs in arch/arm/configs on arm. I also checked that no new warnings were
    introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
    by unnecessarily included header files).

  • Fix a bug in the directory reading code, where we might have dereferenced
    a NULL pointer in case of OOM. Updated the directory code to use the new
    & improved version of gfs2_meta_ra() which now returns the first block
    that was being read. Previously it was releasing it requiring following
    code to grab the block again at each point it was called.

    Also turned off readahead on directory lookups since we are reading a
    hash table, and therefore reading the entries in order is very
    unlikely. Readahead is still used for all other calls to the
    directory reading function (e.g. when growing the hash table).

    Removed the DIO_START constant. Everywhere this was used, it was
    used to unconditionally start i/o aside from a couple of places, so
    I've removed it and made the couple of exceptions to this rule into
    separate functions.

    Also hunted through the other DIO flags and removed them as arguments
    from functions which were always called with the same combination of
    arguments.

    Updated gfs2_meta_indirect_buffer to be a bit more efficient and
    hopefully also be a bit easier to read.

  • lm_interface.h has a few out of the tree clients such as GFS1
    and userland tools.

    Right now, these clients keeps a copy of the file in their build tree
    that can go out of sync.

    Move lm_interface.h to include/linux, export it to userland and
    clean up fs/gfs2 to use the new location.

  • As per comments from Jan Engelhardt this
    updates the copyright message to say "version" in full rather than
    "v.2". Also incore.h has been updated to remove forward structure
    declarations which are not required.

    The gfs2_quota_lvb structure has now had endianess annotations added
    to it. Also quota.c has been updated so that we now store the
    lvb data locally in endian independant format to avoid needing
    a structure in host endianess too. As a result the endianess
    conversions are done as required at various points and thus the
    conversion routines in lvb.[ch] are no longer required. I've
    moved the one remaining constant in lvb.h thats used into lm.h
    and removed the unused lvb.[ch].

    I have not changed the HIF_ constants. That is left to a later patch
    which I hope will unify the gh_flags and gh_iflags fields of the
    struct gfs2_holder.

  • This patch fixes the way we have been dealing with unlinked,
    but still open files. It removes all limits (other than memory
    for inodes, as per every other filesystem) on numbers of these
    which we can support on GFS2. It also means that (like other
    fs) its the responsibility of the last process to close the file
    to deallocate the storage, rather than the person who did the
    unlinking. Note that with GFS2, those two events might take place
    on different nodes.

    Also there are a number of other changes:

    o We use the Linux inode subsystem as it was intended to be
    used, wrt allocating GFS2 inodes
    o The Linux inode cache is now the point which we use for
    local enforcement of only holding one copy of the inode in
    core at once (previous to this we used the glock layer).
    o We no longer use the unlinked "special" file. We just ignore it
    completely. This makes unlinking more efficient.
    o We now use the 4th block allocation state. The previously unused
    state is used to track unlinked but still open inodes.
    o gfs2_inoded is no longer needed
    o Several fields are now no longer needed (and removed) from the in
    core struct gfs2_inode
    o Several fields are no longer needed (and removed) from the in core
    superblock

    There are a number of future possible optimisations and clean ups
    which have been made possible by this patch.

  • As suggested by Pekka Enberg .

    The DIV_RU macro is renamed DIV_ROUND_UP and and moved to kernel.h
    The other macros are gone from gfs2.h as (although not requested
    by Pekka Enberg) are a number of included header file which are now
    included individually. The inode number comparison function is
    now an inline function.

    The DT2IF and IF2DT may be addressed in a future patch.
