b4c20166dc [GFS2] flocks from same process trip kernel BUG at fs/gfs2/glock.c:1118!
This patch adds a new flag to the gfs2_holder structure GL_FLOCK.
It is set on holders of glocks representing flocks. This flag is
checked in add_to_queue() and a process is permitted to queue more
than one holder onto a glock if it is set. This solves the issue
of a process not being able to do multiple flocks on the same file.
Through a single descriptor, a process can now promote and demote
flocks. Through multiple descriptors a process can now queue
multiple flocks on the same file. There's still the problem of
a process deadlocking itself (because gfs2 blocking locks are not
interruptible) by queueing incompatible deadlock.

1ad38c437f [GFS2] Clean up gfs2_trans_add_revoke()
The following alters gfs2_trans_add_revoke() to take a struct
gfs2_bufdata as an argument. This eliminates the memory allocation which
was previously required by making use of the already existing struct
gfs2_bufdata. It makes some sanity checks to ensure that the
gfs2_bufdata has been removed from all the lists before its recycled as
a revoke structure. This saves one memory allocation and one free per
revoke structure.

Also as a result, and to simplify the locking, since there is no longer
any blocking code in gfs2_trans_add_revoke() we must hold the log lock
whenever this function is called. This reduces the amount of times we
take and unlock the log lock.

0820ab517e [GFS2] Use slab operations for all gfs2_bufdata allocations
The old revoke structure was allocated using kalloc/kfree but
there is a slab cache for gfs2_bufdata, so we should use that
now that the structures have been converted.

82e86087bb [GFS2] Replace revoke structure with bufdata structure
Both the revoke structure and the bufdata structure are quite similar.
They are basically small tags which are put on lists. In addition to
which the revoke structure is always allocated when there is a bufdata
structure which is (or can be) freed. As such it should be possible to
reduce the number of frees and allocations by using the same structure
for both purposes.

This patch is the first step along that path. It replaces existing uses
of the revoke structure with the bufdata structure.

d7b616e252 [GFS2] Clean up ordered write code
The following patch removes the ordered write processing from
databuf_lo_before_commit() and moves it to log.c. This has the effect of
greatly simplyfying databuf_lo_before_commit() and well as potentially
making the ordered write code more efficient.

As a side effect of this, its now possible to remove ordered buffers
from the ordered buffer list at any time, so we now make use of this in
invalidatepage and releasepage to ensure timely release of these
buffers.

9b9107a5a8 [GFS2] Move pin/unpin into lops.c, clean up locking
gfs2_pin and gfs2_unpin are only used in lops.c, despite being
defined in meta_io.c, so this patch moves them into lops.c and
makes them static. At the same time, its possible to clean up
the locking in the buf and databuf _lo_add() functions so that
we only need to grab the spinlock once. Also we have to move
lock_buffer() around the _lo_add() functions since we can't
do that in gfs2_pin() any more since we hold the spinlock
for the duration of that function.

As a result, the code shrinks by 12 lines and we do far fewer
operations when adding buffers to the log. It also makes the
code somewhat easier to read & understand.

c4f68a130f [GFS2] delay glock demote for a minimum hold time
When a lot of IO, with some distributed mmap IO, is run on a GFS2 filesystem in
a cluster, it will deadlock. The reason is that do_no_page() will repeatedly
call gfs2_sharewrite_nopage(), because each node keeps giving up the glock
too early, and is forced to call unmap_mapping_range(). This bumps the
mapping->truncate_count sequence count, forcing do_no_page() to retry. This
patch institutes a minimum glock hold time a tenth a second.  This insures
that even in heavy contention cases, the node has enough time to get some
useful work done before it gives up the glock.

A second issue is that when gfs2_glock_dq() is called from within a page fault
to demote a lock, and the associated page needs to be written out, it will
try to acqire a lock on it, but it has already been locked at a higher level.
This patch puts makes gfs2_glock_dq() use the work queue as well, to avoid this
issue. This is the same patch as Steve Whitehouse originally proposed to fix
this issue, execpt that gfs2_glock_dq() now grabs a reference to the glock
before it queues up the work on it.

d1e2777d4f [GFS2] panic after can't parse mount arguments
When you try to mount gfs2 with -o garbage, the mount fails and the gfs2
superblock is deallocated and becomes NULL. The vfs comes around later
on and calls gfs2_kill_sb. At this point the hidden gfs2 superblock
pointer (sb->s_fs_info) is NULL and dereferencing it through
gfs2_meta_syncfs causes the panic. (the other function call to
gfs2_delete_debugfs_file() succeeds because this function already checks
for a NULL pointer)

75be73a824 [GFS2] Ensure journal file cache is flushed after recovery
This is for bugzilla bug #248176: GFS2: invalid metadata block

Patches 1 thru 3 were accepted upstream, but there were problems
with 4 and 5.  Those issues have been resolved and now the recovery
tests are passing without errors.  This code has gone through
41 * 3 successful gfs2 recovery tests before it hit an
unrelated (openais) problem.  I'm continuing to test it.

This is a complete rewrite of patch 5 for bug #248176, written by
Steve Whitehouse.  This is referred to in the bugzilla record as
"new 6" and "a different solution".

The problem was that the journal inodes, although protected by
a glock, were not synched with the other nodes because they don't
use the inode glock synch operations (i.e. no "glops" were defined).
Therefore, journal recovery on a journal-recovering node were causing
the blocks to get out of sync with the node that was actually trying
to use that journal as it comes back up from a reboot.

There are two possible solutions: (1) To make the journals use the
normal inode glock sync operations, or (2) To make the journal
operations take effect immediately (i.e. no caching).  Although
option 1 works, it turns out to be a lot more code.  Steve opted
for option 2, which is much simpler and therefore less prone to
regression errors.

Another problem was that the clone bitmaps were being

"real" bitmaps should be searched for that purpose.

7572395767 Fix possible splice() mmap_sem deadlock
Nick Piggin points out that splice isn't being good about the mmap
semaphore: while two readers can nest inside each others, it does leave
a possible deadlock if a writer (ie a new mmap()) comes in during that
nesting.

Original "just move the locking" patch by Nick, replaced by one by me
based on an optimistic pagefault_disable().  And then Jens tested and
updated that patch.

564256c9e0 Revert "[XFS] Avoid replaying inode buffer initialisation log items if on-disk version is newer."
This reverts commit b394e43e99.

Lachlan McIlroy says:
    It tried to fix an issue where log replay is replaying an inode cluster
    initialisation transaction that should not be replayed because the inode
    cluster on disk is more up to date.  Since we don't log file sizes (we
    rely on inode flushing to get them to disk) then we can't just replay
    all the transations in the log and expect the inode to be completely
    restored.  We lose file size updates.  Unfortunately this fix is causing
    more (serious) problems than it is fixing.

54af3bb543 NFS: Fix an Oops in encode_lookup()
It doesn't look as if the NFS file name limit is being initialised correctly
in the struct nfs_server. Make sure that we limit whatever is being set in
nfs_probe_fsinfo() and nfs_init_server().

Also ensure that readdirplus and nfs4_path_walk respect our file name
limits.

255129d1e9 NLM: Fix a circular lock dependency in lockd
The problem is that the garbage collector for the 'host' structures
nlm_gc_hosts(), holds nlm_host_mutex while calling down to
nlmsvc_mark_resources, which, eventually takes the file->f_mutex.

We cannot therefore call nlmsvc_lookup_host() from within
nlmsvc_create_block, since the caller will already hold file->f_mutex, so
the attempt to grab nlm_host_mutex may deadlock.

Fix the problem by calling nlmsvc_lookup_host() outside the file->f_mutex.
