The following patches are reverted in this patch because these patches
caused performance regression in the remote unlink() calls.ea455f8ab683 - ocfs2: Push out dropping of dentry lock to ocfs2_wq
f7b1aa69be13 - ocfs2: Fix deadlock on umount
5fd131893793 - ocfs2: Don't oops in ocfs2_kill_sb on a failed mountPrevious patches in this series removed the possible deadlocks from
downconvert thread so the above patches shouldn't be needed anymore.The regression is caused because these patches delay the iput() in case
of dentry unlocks. This also delays the unlocking of the open lockres.
The open lockresource is required to test if the inode can be wiped from
disk or not. When the deleting node does not get the open lock, it
marks it as orphan (even though it is not in use by another
node/process) and causes a journal checkpoint. This delays operations
following the inode eviction. This also moves the inode to the orphaned
inode which further causes more I/O and a lot of unneccessary orphans.The following script can be used to generate the load causing issues:
declare -a create
declare -a remove
declare -a iterations=(1 2 4 8 16 32 64 128 256 512 1024 2048 4096 8192 16384)

I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived
list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member)
The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter:
hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member)
Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only
they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking
exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate.Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required:
- Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h
- Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones.
- A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this
was modified to use 'obj->member' instead.
- Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator
properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.The semantic patch which is mostly the work of Peter Senna Tschudin is here:

mlog_exit is used to record the exit status of a function.
But because it is added in so many functions, if we enable it,
the system logs get filled up quickly and cause too much I/O.
So actually no one can open it for a production system or even
for a test.This patch just try to remove it or change it. So:
1. if all the error paths already use mlog_errno, it is just removed.
Otherwise, it will be replaced by mlog_errno.
2. if it is used to print some return value, it is replaced with
mlog(0,...).
mlog_exit_ptr is changed to mlog(0.
All those mlog(0,...) will be replaced with trace events later.Signed-off-by: Tao Ma

dcache_inode_lock can be replaced with per-inode locking. Use existing
inode->i_lock for this. This is slightly non-trivial because we sometimes
need to find the inode from the dentry, which requires d_inode to be
stabilised (either with refcount or d_lock).Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin

dget_locked was a shortcut to avoid the lazy lru manipulation when we already
held dcache_lock (lru manipulation was relatively cheap at that point).
However, how that the lru lock is an innermost one, we never hold it at any
caller, so the lock cost can now be avoided. We already have well working lazy
dcache LRU, so it should be fine to defer LRU manipulations to scan time.Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin

I suddenly hit the problem during 2.6.37-rc1 regression test, which was
introduced by commit '5e98d492406818e6a94c0ba54c61f59d40cefa4a'(Track
negative entries v3), following scenario reproduces the issue easily:Node A Node B
================ ============
$touch testfile
$ls testfile
$rm -rf testfile
$touch testfile
$ls testfile
ls: cannot access testfile: No such file or directoryThis patch stops tracking the dentry which was negativated by a inode deletion,
so as to force the revaliation in next lookup, in case we'll touch the inode
again in the same node.It didn't hurt the performance of multiple lookup for none-existed files anyway,
while regresses a bit in the first try after a file deletion.Signed-off-by: Tristan Ye

Track negative dentries by recording the generation number of the parent
directory in d_fsdata. The generation number for the parent directory is
recorded in the inode_info, which increments every time the lock on the
directory is dropped.If the generation number of the parent directory and the negative dentry
matches, there is no need to perform the revalidate, else a revalidate
is forced. This improves performance in situations where nodes look for
the same non-existent file multiple times.Thanks Mark for explaining the DLM sequence.

In commit a5a0a630922a2f6a774b6dac19f70cb5abd86bb0, when
ocfs2_attch_dentry_lock fails, we call an extra iput and reset
dentry->d_fsdata to NULL. This resolve a bug, but it isn't
completed and the dentry is still there. When we want to use
it again, ocfs2_dentry_revalidate doesn't catch it and return
true. That make future ocfs2_dentry_lock panic out.
One bug is http://oss.oracle.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1162.The resolution is to add a check for dentry->d_fsdata in
revalidate process and return false if dentry->d_fsdata is NULL,
so that a new ocfs2_lookup will be called again.Signed-off-by: Tao Ma

In commit ea455f8ab68338ba69f5d3362b342c115bea8e13, we moved the dentry lock
put process into ocfs2_wq. This causes problems during umount because ocfs2_wq
can drop references to inodes while they are being invalidated by
invalidate_inodes() causing all sorts of nasty things (invalidate_inodes()
ending in an infinite loop, "Busy inodes after umount" messages etc.).We fix the problem by stopping ocfs2_wq from doing any further releasing of
inode references on the superblock being unmounted, wait until it finishes
the current round of releasing and finally cleaning up all the references in
dentry_lock_list from ocfs2_put_super().The issue was tracked down by Tao Ma .

In ocfs2_dentry_attach_lock(), if unable to get the dentry lock, we need to
call iput(inode) because a failure here means no d_instantiate(), which means
the normally matching iput() will not be called during dput(dentry).This patch fixes the oops that accompanies the following message:

Dropping of last reference to dentry lock is a complicated operation involving
dropping of reference to inode. This can get complicated and quota code in
particular needs to obtain some quota locks which leads to potential deadlock.
Thus we defer dropping of inode reference to ocfs2_wq.Signed-off-by: Jan Kara

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

The existing bug statement didn't take into account unhashed dentries which
might not have a cluster lock on them. This could happen if a node exporting
the file system via NFS is rebooted, re-exported to nfs clients and then
unmounted. It's fine in this case to not have a dentry cluster lock.Just remove the bug statement and replace it with an error print, which
does the proper checks. Though we want to know if something has happened
which might have prevented a cluster lock from being created, it's
definitely not necessary to panic the machine for this.Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh

Do this to avoid a theoretical (I haven't seen this in practice) race where
the downconvert thread might drop the dentry lock, allowing a remote unlink
to proceed before dropping the inode locks. This could bounce access to the
orphan dir between nodes.There doesn't seem to be a need to do the same in ocfs2_dentry_iput() as
that's never called for the last ref drop from the downconvert thread.Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh

Make use of FS_RENAME_DOES_D_MOVE to avoid a race condition that can occur
during ->rename() if we d_move() outside of the parent directory cluster
locks, and another node discovers the new name (created during the rename)

leave stale data in the system.Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh

Replace the dentry vote mechanism with a cluster lock which covers a set
of dentries. This allows us to force d_delete() only on nodes which actually
care about an unlink.Every node that does a ->lookup() gets a read only lock on the dentry, until
an unlink during which the unlinking node, will request an exclusive lock,
forcing the other nodes who care about that dentry to d_delete() it. The
effect is that we retain a very lightweight ->d_revalidate(), and at the
same time get to make large improvements to the average case performance of
the ocfs2 unlink and rename operations.This patch adds the higher level API and the dentry manipulation code.
