The "nodir" mode (statically assign master nodes instead
of using the resource directory) has always been highly
experimental, and never seriously used. This commit
fixes a number of problems, making nodir much more usable.- Major change to recovery: recover all locks and restart
all in-progress operations after recovery. In some
cases it's not possible to know which in-progess locks
to recover, so recover all. (Most require recovery
in nodir mode anyway since rehashing changes most
master nodes.)- Change the way nodir mode is enabled, from a command
line mount arg passed through gfs2, into a sysfs
file managed by dlm_controld, consistent with the
other config settings.- Allow recovering MSTCPY locks on an rsb that has not
yet been turned into a master copy.- Ignore RCOM_LOCK and RCOM_LOCK_REPLY recovery messages
from a previous, aborted recovery cycle. Base this
on the local recovery status not being in the state
where any nodes should be sending LOCK messages for the
current recovery cycle.- Hold rsb lock around dlm_purge_mstcpy_locks() because it
may run concurrently with dlm_recover_master_copy().- Maintain highbast on process-copy lkb's (in addition to
the master as is usual), because the lkb can switch
back and forth between being a master and being a
process copy as the master node changes in recovery.- When recovering MSTCPY locks, flag rsb's that have
non-empty convert or waiting queues for granting
at the end of recovery. (Rename flag from LOCKS_PURGED
to RECOVER_GRANT and similar for the recovery function,
because it's not only resources with purged locks
that need grant a grant attempt.)- Replace a couple of unnecessary assertion panics with
error messages.Signed-off-by: David Teigland

Replace all GFP_KERNEL and ls_allocation with GFP_NOFS.
ls_allocation would be GFP_KERNEL for userland lockspaces
and GFP_NOFS for file system lockspaces.It was discovered that any lockspaces on the system can
affect all others by triggering memory reclaim in the
file system which could in turn call back into the dlm
to acquire locks, deadlocking dlm threads that were
shared by all lockspaces, like dlm_recv.Signed-off-by: David Teigland

Change some GFP_KERNEL allocations to use either GFP_NOFS or
ls_allocation (when available) which the fs sets to GFP_NOFS.
The point is to prevent allocations from going back into the
cluster fs in places where that might lead to deadlock.Signed-off-by: David Teigland

a) don't cast the pointer to dlm_header *, we use it as dlm_message *
anyway.
b) we copy the message into a queue element, then pass the pointer to
copy to dlm_receive_message_saved(); declare it properly to make sure
that we have the right alignment.Signed-off-by: Al Viro

Introduce a per-lockspace rwsem that's held in read mode by dlm_recv
threads while working in the dlm. This allows dlm_recv activity to be
suspended when the lockspace transitions to, from and between recovery
cycles.The specific bug prompting this change is one where an in-progress
recovery cycle is aborted by a new recovery cycle. While dlm_recv was
processing a recovery message, the recovery cycle was aborted and
dlm_recoverd began cleaning up. dlm_recv decremented recover_locks_count
on an rsb after dlm_recoverd had reset it to zero. This is fixed by
suspending dlm_recv (taking write lock on the rwsem) before aborting the
current recovery.The transitions to/from normal and recovery modes are simplified by using
this new ability to block dlm_recv. The switch from normal to recovery
mode means dlm_recv goes from processing locking messages, to saving them
for later, and vice versa. Races are avoided by blocking dlm_recv when
setting the flag that switches between modes.Signed-off-by: David Teigland

Requests that arrive after recovery has started are saved in the
requestqueue and processed after recovery is done. Some of these requests
are purged during recovery if they are from nodes that have been removed.
We move the purging of the requests (dlm_purge_requestqueue) to later in
the recovery sequence which allows the routine saving requests
(dlm_add_requestqueue) to avoid filtering out requests by nodeid since the
same will be done by the purge. The current code has add_requestqueue
filtering by nodeid but doesn't hold any locks when accessing the list of
current nodes. This also means that we need to call the purge routine
when the lockspace is being shut down since the add routine will not be
rejecting requests itself any more.Signed-off-by: David Teigland

There's a race between dlm_recoverd (1) enabling locking and (2) clearing
out the requestqueue, and dlm_recvd (1) checking if locking is enabled and
(2) adding a message to the requestqueue. An order of recoverd(1),
recvd(1), recvd(2), recoverd(2) will result in a message being left on the
requestqueue. The fix is to have dlm_recvd check if dlm_recoverd has
enabled locking after taking the mutex for the requestqueue and if it has
processing the message instead of queueing it.Signed-off-by: David Teigland

This is the core of the distributed lock manager which is required
to use GFS2 as a cluster filesystem. It is also used by CLVM and
can be used as a standalone lock manager independantly of either
of these two projects.It implements VAX-style locking modes.
