[Ocfs2-devel] [PATCH 0/2] Resend: 2 o2net related patches.

[Tao Ma]

These 2 patches has been sent already, but they are not based on the
latest linux kernel.
So resend them out.

[Ocfs2-devel] [PATCH 2/2] o2net: Reconnect after idle time out.

[Tao Ma]

Currently, o2net connects to a node on hb_up and disconnects on
hb_down and net timeout.

It disconnects on net timeout is ok, but it should attempt to
reconnect back. This is because sometimes nodes get overloaded
enough that the network connection breaks but the disk hb does not.
And if we get into that situation, we either fence (unnecessarily)
or wait for its disk hb to die (and sometimes hang in the process).

So in this updated scheme, when the network disconnects, we keep
attempting to reconnect till we succeed or we get a disk hb down
event.

If the other node is really dead, then we will eventually get a
node down event. If not, we should be able to connect again and
continue.

[Ocfs2-devel] [PATCH 1/2] Fix NULL pointer dereference in o2net.

[Tao Ma]

In some situation, we may call ocfs2_set_nn_state with
sc = NULL and vaild = 0 and the connect work will be queued
in these situations. While as sc = NULL, we can't trust
it to get the o2nm_node. So put NULL into o2net_reconnect_delay
as o2net_initialize_handshake does.
Another similar scenario is in o2net_connect_expired where
o2net_idle_timeout also should use NULL.
