[Cluster-devel] GFS2: Pre-pull patch posting (fixes)

[Steven Whitehouse]

Hi,

Here is the current content of the GFS2 -fixes git tree. Nothing
very exciting this time... some fixes for issues we've
had relating to flushing glocks/memory usage, plus a couple of
other fixes relating to statfs and the timely removal of inodes
which have been unlinked on a remote node,

Steve.

Here are four small fixes for GFS2. Assuming that nobody spots
any errors, I'll be sending a pull request for these shortly,

Hi,

Here are a couple of patches which between them fix a problem where
occasionally it was possible for the GFS2 module to be unloaded
before all the glocks were deallocated, which, needless to say, made
the slab allocator unhappy,

Hi,

These are three important, but relatively small, bug fixes for GFS2.
The first prevents a kernel BUG triggering in a relatively unlikely
(but possible) scenario when a log flush caused by glock demotion
races with a log flush from some other initiator (e.g. fsync).

The second and third patches add extra conditions to two areas
of code. This makes their behaviour match ext3 in those cases,

Hi,

The following three fixes should help ensure that 3.0 is the best
release yet, GFS2-wise at least. I've had the first two queued for
some time waiting for the final one of this set. All three are relatively
short, although the third is a bit longer than the others, mainly
due to the extra comments added describing the inode eviction process,

[Cluster-devel] GFS2: Pre-pull patch posting (fixes)

[Steven Whitehouse]

Hi,

Here are three GFS2 fixes for the current kernel tree. These are all
related to the block reservation code which was added at the merge
window. That code will be getting an update at the forthcoming merge
window too. In the mean time though there are a few smaller issues
which should be fixed.

The first patch resolves an issue with write sizes of greater than
32 bits with the size hinting code. The second ensures that the
allocation data structure is initialised when using xattrs and the
third takes into account allocations which may have been made by
other nodes which affect a reservation on the local node,

Steve.

[Cluster-devel] [PATCH 1/3] GFS2: Make write size hinting code common

[Steven Whitehouse]

This collects up the write size hinting code which is used by the
block reservation subsystem into a single function. At the same
time this also corrects the rounding for this calculation.

[Cluster-devel] [PATCH 3/3] GFS2: Take account of blockages when using reserved blocks

[Steven Whitehouse]

The claim_reserved_blks() function was not taking account of
the possibility of "blockages" while performing allocation.
This can be caused by another node allocating something in
the same extent which has been reserved locally.

This patch tests for this condition and then skips the remainder
of the reservation in this case. This is a relatively rare event,
so that it should not affect the general performance improvement
which the block reservations provide.

The claim_reserved_blks() function also appears not to be able
to deal with reservations which cross bitmap boundaries, but
that can be dealt with in a future patch since we don't generate
boundary crossing reservations currently.

[Cluster-devel] GFS2: Pre-pull patch posting (fixes)

[Steven Whitehouse]

Hi,

Here are a number of GFS2 bug fixes. There are three from Andy Price
which fix various issues spotted by automated code analysis. There are two
from Lukas Czerner fixing my mistaken assumptions as to how FITRIM
should work. Finally Ben Marzinski has fixed a bug relating to mmap and
atime and also a bug relating to a locking issue in the transaction code.

Steve.

[Cluster-devel] GFS2: Pre-pull patch posting (fixes)

[Steven Whitehouse]

This time there are just four fixes. There are a couple of minor updates
to the quota code, a fix for KConfig to ensure that only valid combinations
including GFS2 can be built, and a fix for a typo affecting end i/o
processing when writing the journal.

Also, there is a temporary fix for a performance regression relating to
block reservations and directories. A longer fix will be applied in
due course, but this deals with the most immediate problem for now,

Steve.

[Cluster-devel] GFS2: Pre-pull patch posting (fixes)

[Steven Whitehouse]

There are four patches this time. The first fixes a problem where the
wrong descriptor type was being written into the log for journaled data
blocks. The second fixes a race relating to the deallocation of allocator
data. The third provides a fallback if kmalloc is unable to satisfy a
request to allocate a directory hash table. The fourth fixes the iopen
glock caching so that inodes are deleted in a more timely manner after
rmdir/unlink,

Steve.

Hi,

Out of these fives patches, the one for ensuring that the number of
revokes is not exceeded, and the one for checking the glock is not
already held in gfs2_getxattr are the two most important. The latter
can be triggered by selinux.

The other three patches are very small and fix mostly fairly
trivial issues,

Hi,

Here is a set of small fixes for GFS2. There is a fix to drop

relate to a hard to hit "use after free" and memory leak.
Two patches related to using DIO and buffered I/O on the same
file to ensure correct operation in relation to glock state
changes. The final patch adds an RCU read lock to ensure
correct locking on an error path,

also (patches 1 and 5) a couple of updates which are less
critical, but small and low risk.
