2014-11-17GFS2: update freeze code to use freeze/thaw_super on all nodesBenjamin Marzinski
The current gfs2 freezing code is considerably more complicated than it should be because it doesn't use the vfs freezing code on any node except the one that begins the freeze. This is because it needs to acquire a cluster glock before calling the vfs code to prevent a deadlock, and without the new freeze_super and thaw_super hooks, that was impossible. To deal with the issue, gfs2 had to do some hacky locking tricks to make sure that a frozen node couldn't be holding on a lock it needed to do the unfreeze ioctl. This patch makes use of the new hooks to simply the gfs2 locking code. Now, all the nodes in the cluster freeze and thaw in exactly the same way. Every node in the cluster caches the freeze glock in the shared state. The new freeze_super hook allows the freezing node to grab this freeze glock in the exclusive state without first calling the vfs freeze_super function. All the nodes in the cluster see this lock change, and call the vfs freeze_super function. The vfs locking code guarantees that the nodes can't get stuck holding the glocks necessary to unfreeze the system. To unfreeze, the freezing node uses the new thaw_super hook to drop the freeze glock. Again, all the nodes notice this, reacquire the glock in shared mode and call the vfs thaw_super function.

2013-01-29GFS2: Clean up freeze codeSteven Whitehouse
The freeze code has not been looked at a lot recently. Upstream has moved on, and this is an attempt to catch us back up again. There is a vfs level interface for the freeze code which can be called from our (obsolete, but kept for backward compatibility purposes) sysfs freeze interface. This means freezing this way vs. doing it from the ioctl should now work in identical fashion. As a result of this, the freeze function is only called once and we can drop our own special purpose code for counting the number of freezes. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

2009-12-03GFS2: Alter arguments of gfs2_quota/statfs_syncSteven Whitehouse
These two functions are altered so that gfs2_quota_sync may in future be called directly from the VFS. The GFS2 superblock changes to a VFS super block and there is an addition of an int argument which is currently ignored. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2009-12-03GFS2: Fix -o meta mounts for subsequent mounts (i.e. all but the first one)Steven Whitehouse
We have a long term plan to use the "-o meta" flag to GFS2 mounts to access the alternate root which is used to store metadata for a GFS2 filesystem. This will allow us to eventually remove support for the gfs2meta filesystem type (which is in any case just a "front end" to the gfs2 filesystem type with the meta/master root). Currently the "-o meta" option is only taken into account on the initial mount of the filesystem. Subsequent mounts of the same filesystem (i.e. on the same device) result in basically the same as bind mounting the root of the original mount. This patch changes that by using what is more or less a copy of get_sb_bdev() and extending it so that it will take into account the alternate root in all cases. The main difference is that we have to parse the mount options a bit earlier. We can then use them to select the appropriate root towards the end of the function. In addition this also fixes a bug where it was possible (but certainly not desirable) to set different ro/rw options for the meta root when mounted via the gfs2meta fs compared with the original mount.

2009-08-26GFS2: Clean up of extended attribute supportSteven Whitehouse
This has been on my list for some time. We need to change the way in which we handle extended attributes to allow faster file creation times (by reducing the number of transactions required) and the extended attribute code is the main obstacle to this. In addition to that, the VFS provides a way to demultiplex the xattr calls which we ought to be using, rather than rolling our own. This patch changes the GFS2 code to use that VFS feature and as a result the code shrinks by a couple of hundred lines or so, and becomes easier to read. I'm planning on doing further clean up work in this area, but this patch is a good start. The cleaned up code also uses the more usual "xattr" shorthand, I plan to eliminate the use of "eattr" eventually and in the mean time it serves as a flag as to which bits of the code have been updated.

2009-08-17GFS2: Add online uevent to GFS2Steven Whitehouse
We already have an offline uevent (used when a withdraw occurs) but no online uevent. This adds an online uevent so that userspace will be able to detect a successful mount by means other than not receiving a remove event after the add & recovery (change) uevents. It has also been added to the remount path as well - we can't use a change uevent there as older GFS2 userspace acts on change uevents according to the state that it thinks the fs is in, so we can't easily add any new ones.

2009-07-30GFS2: keep statfs info in sync on growsBenjamin Marzinski
GFS2 wasn't syncing its statfs info on grows. This causes a problem when you grow the filesystem on multiple nodes. GFS2 would calculate the new space based on the resource groups (which are always current), and then assume that the filesystem had grown the from the existing statfs size. If you grew the filesystem on two different nodes in a short time, the second node wouldn't see the statfs size change from the first node, and would assume that it was grown by a larger amount than it was. When all these changes were synced out, the total fileystem size would be incorrect (the first grow would be counted twice). This patch syncs makes GFS2 read in the statfs changes from disk before a grow, and write them out after the grow, while the master statfs inode is locked.

2009-03-24GFS2: Fix remount argument parsingSteven Whitehouse
The following patch fixes an issue relating to remount and argument parsing. After this fix is applied, remount becomes atomic in that it either succeeds changing the mount to the new state, or it fails and leaves it in the old state. Previously it was possible for the parsing of options to fail part way though and for the fs to be left in a state where some of the new arguments had been applied, but some had not.

2009-01-05Revert "GFS2: Fix use-after-free bug on umount"Steven Whitehouse
This reverts commit 78802499912f1ba31ce83a94c55b5a980f250a43. The original patch is causing problems in relation to order of operations at umount in relation to jdata files. I need to fix this a different way. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2009-01-05GFS2: Fix use-after-free bug on umountSteven Whitehouse
There was a use-after-free with the GFS2 super block during umount. This patch moves almost all of the umount code from ->put_super into ->kill_sb, the only bit that cannot be moved being the glock hash clearing which has to remain as ->put_super due to umount ordering requirements. As a result its now obvious that the kfree is the final operation, whereas before it was hidden in ->put_super. Also gfs2_jindex_free is then only referenced from a single file so thats moved and marked static too. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2009-01-05GFS2: Move four functions from super.cSteven Whitehouse
The functions which are being moved can all be marked static in their new locations, since they only have a single caller each. Their new locations are more logical than before and some of the functions are small enough that the compiler might well inline them. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2009-01-05GFS2: Fix bug in gfs2_lock_fs_check_clean()Steven Whitehouse
gfs2_lock_fs_check_clean() should not be calling gfs2_jindex_hold() since it doesn't work like rindex hold, despite the comment. That allows gfs2_jindex_hold() to be moved into ops_fstype.c where it can be made static. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

2008-08-13GFS2: Fix metafs mountsSteven Whitehouse
This patch is intended to fix the issues reported in bz #457798. Instead of having the metafs as a separate filesystem, it becomes a second root of gfs2. As a result it will appear as type gfs2 in /proc/mounts, but it is still possible (for backwards compatibility purposes) to mount it as type gfs2meta. A new mount flag "meta" is introduced so that its possible to tell the two cases apart in /proc/mounts. As a result it becomes possible to mount type gfs2 with -o meta and get the same result as mounting type gfs2meta. So it is possible to mount just the metafs on its own. Currently if you do this, its then impossible to mount the "normal" root of the gfs2 filesystem without first unmounting the metafs root. I'm not sure if thats a feature or a bug :-) Either way, this is a great improvement on the previous scheme and I've verified that it works ok with bind mounts on both the "normal" root and the metafs root in various combinations. There were also a bunch of functions in super.c which didn't belong there, so this moves them into ops_fstype.c where they can be static. Hopefully the mount/umount sequence is now more obvious as a result. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com> Cc: Alexander Viro <aviro@redhat.com>
2008-03-31[GFS2] Remove lm.[ch] and distribute contentSteven Whitehouse
The functions in lm.c were just wrappers which were mostly only used in one other file. By moving the functions to the files where they are being used, they can be marked static and also this will usually result in them being inlined since they are often only used from one point in the code. A couple of really trivial functions have been inlined by hand into the function which called them as it makes the code clearer to do that. We also gain from one fewer function call in the glock lock and unlock paths. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2007-07-09[GFS2] Fix sign problem in quota/statfs and cleanup _host structuresSteven Whitehouse
This patch fixes some sign issues which were accidentally introduced into the quota & statfs code during the endianess annotation process. Also included is a general clean up which moves all of the _host structures out of gfs2_ondisk.h (where they should not have been to start with) and into the places where they are actually used (often only one place). Also those _host structures which are not required any more are removed entirely (which is the eventual plan for all of them). The conversion routines from ondisk.c are also moved into the places where they are actually used, which for almost every one, was just one single place, so all those are now static functions. This also cleans up the end of gfs2_ondisk.h which no longer needs the #ifdef __KERNEL__. The net result is a reduction of about 100 lines of code, many functions now marked static plus the bug fixes as mentioned above. For good measure I ran the code through sparse after making these changes to check that there are no warnings generated.

2006-09-01[GFS2] Update copyright, tidy up incore.hSteven Whitehouse
As per comments from Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@linux01.gwdg.de> 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.

2006-03-01[GFS2] Tidy up mount code.Steven Whitehouse
We no longer lookup ".gfs2_admin" in the root directory in order to find it, but instead use the inode number given in the superblock. Both the root directory and the admin directory are now looked up using the same routine, so the redundant code is removed. Also, there is no longer a reference to the root inode in the GFS2 super block. When required this can be retreived via sb->s_root->d_inode instead. Assuming that we introduce a metadata filesystem type for GFS, then this is a first step towards that goal. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
