      In ocfs2_read_inline_data() we should store file size in loff_t. Although
      the file size should fit in 32 bits we cannot be sure in case filesystem is

      Create separate lockdep lock classes for system file's i_mutexes. They are
      used to guard allocations and similar things and thus rank differently

      [PATCH 2/2] ocfs2: cluster aware flock() · 53fc622b
      Mark Fasheh authored
      Hook up ocfs2_flock(), using the new flock lock type in dlmglue.c. A new
      mount option, "localflocks" is added so that users can revert to old
      functionality as need be.

      [PATCH 1/2] ocfs2: add flock lock type · cf8e06f1
      Mark Fasheh authored
      This adds a new dlmglue lock type which is intended to back flock()
      requests.
      
      Since these locks are driven from userspace, usage rules are much more
      liberal than the typical Ocfs2 internal cluster lock. As a result, we can't
      make use of most dlmglue features - lock caching and lock level
      optimizations in particular. Additionally, userspace is free to deadlock
      itself, so we have to deal with that in the same way as the rest of the
      kernel - by allowing a signal to abort a lock request.
      
      In order to keep ocfs2_cluster_lock() complexity down, ocfs2_file_lock()
      does it's own dlm coordination. We still use the same helper functions
      though, so duplicated code is kept to a minimum.

      ocfs2: Local alloc window size changeable via mount option · 2fbe8d1e
      Sunil Mushran authored
      Local alloc is a performance optimization in ocfs2 in which a node
      takes a window of bits from the global bitmap and then uses that for
      all small local allocations. This window size is fixed to 8MB currently.
      This patch allows users to specify the window size in MB including
      disabling it by passing in 0. If the number specified is too large,
      the fs will use the default value of 8MB.

      Mostly taken from ext3. This allows the user to set the jbd commit interval,

      [PATCH 2/2] ocfs2: Implement group add for online resize · 7909f2bf
      Tao Ma authored
      This patch adds the ability for a userspace program to request that a
      properly formatted cluster group be added to the main allocation bitmap for
      an Ocfs2 file system. The request is made via an ioctl, OCFS2_IOC_GROUP_ADD.
      On a high level, this is similar to ext3, but we use a different ioctl as
      the structure which has to be passed through is different.
      
      During an online resize, tunefs.ocfs2 will format any new cluster groups
      which must be added to complete the resize, and call OCFS2_IOC_GROUP_ADD on
      each one. Kernel verifies that the core cluster group information is valid
      and then does the work of linking it into the global allocation bitmap.

      This patch adds the ability for a userspace program to request an extend of
      last cluster group on an Ocfs2 file system. The request is made via ioctl,
      OCFS2_IOC_GROUP_EXTEND. This is derived from EXT3_IOC_GROUP_EXTEND, but is
      obviously Ocfs2 specific.

      cluster group isn't full.

      ocfs2: Initalize bitmap_cpg of ocfs2_super to be the maximum. · e9d578a8
      Tao Ma authored
      This value is initialized from global_bitmap->id2.i_chain.cl_cpg. If there
      is only 1 group, it will be equal to the total clusters in the volume. So
      as for online resize, it should change for all the nodes in the cluster.
      It isn't easy and there is no corresponding lock for it.
      
      bitmap_cpg is only used in 2 areas:
      1. Check whether the suballoc is too large for us to allocate from the global
         bitmap, so it is little used. And now the suballoc size is 2048, it rarely
         meet this situation and the check is almost useless.
      2. Calculate which group a cluster belongs to. We use it during truncate to
         figure out which cluster group an extent belongs too. But we should be OK
         if we increase it though as the cluster group calculated shouldn't change
         and we only ever have a small bitmap_cpg on file systems with a single
         cluster group.

      ocfs2: Remove data locks · c934a92d
      Mark Fasheh authored
      The meta lock now covers both meta data and data, so this just removes the
      now-redundant data lock.
      
      Combining locks saves us a round of lock mastery per inode and one less lock
      to ping between nodes during read/write.
      
      We don't lose much - since meta locks were always held before a data lock
      (and at the same level) ordered writeout mode (the default) ensured that
      flushing for the meta data lock also pushed out data anyways.

      This can be broken down into these major areas:
       - Documentation updates (language translations and fixes, as
         well as kobject and kset documenatation updates.)
       - major kset/kobject/ktype rework and fixes.  This cleans up the
         kset and kobject and ktype relationship and architecture,
         making sense of things now, and good documenation and samples
         are provided for others to use.  Also the attributes for
         kobjects are much easier to handle now.  This cleaned up a LOT
         of code all through the kernel, making kobjects easier to use
         if you want to.
       - struct bus_type has been reworked to now handle the lifetime
         rules properly, as the kobject is properly dynamic.
       - struct driver has also been reworked, and now the lifetime
         issues are resolved.
       - the block subsystem has been converted to use struct device
         now, and not "raw" kobjects.  This patch has been in the -mm
         tree for over a year now, and finally all the issues are
         worked out with it.  Older distros now properly work with new
         kernels, and no userspace updates are needed at all.
       - nozomi driver is added.  This has also been in -mm for a long
         time, and many people have asked for it to go in.  It is now
         in good enough shape to do so.
       - lots of class_device conversions to use struct device instead.
         The tree is almost all cleaned up now, only SCSI and IB is the
         remaining code to fix up...

      caches resorts to fallback_alloc() which requires ->nodelists set for all
      nodes.  Fix that by calling set_up_list3s() for CACHE_CACHE in
      kmem_cache_init().
      
      As kmem_getpages() is called with GFP_THISNODE set, this used to work before
      because of breakage in 2.6.22 and before with GFP_THISNODE returning pages from
      the wrong node if a node had no memory. So it may have worked accidentally and
      in an unsafe manner because the pages would have been associated with the wrong
      node which could trigger bug ons and locking troubles.

      [GFS2] Allow journal recovery on read-only mount · 7bc5c414
      Abhijith Das authored
      This patch allows gfs2 to perform journal recovery even if it is mounted
      read-only. Strictly speaking, a read-only mount should not be writing to
      the filesystem, but we do this only to perform journal recovery. A
      read-only mount will fail if we don't recover the dirty journal. Also,
      when gfs2 is used as a root filesystem, it will be mounted read-only
      before being mounted read-write during the boot sequence. A failed
      read-only mount will panic the machine during bootup.

      [GFS2] Fix page_mkwrite truncation race path · b7fe2e39
      Steven Whitehouse authored
      There was a bug in the truncation/invalidation race path for
      ->page_mkwrite for gfs2. It ought to return 0 so that the effect is the
      same as if the page was truncated at any of the other points at which
      the page_lock is dropped. This will result in the restart of the whole
      page fault path. If it was due to a real truncation (as opposed to an
      invalidate because we let a glock go) then the ->fault path will pick
      that up when it gets called again.

      [GFS2] gfs2_alloc_required performance · 05220535
      Bob Peterson authored
      This is a small I/O performance enhancement to gfs2.  (Actually, it is a rework of
      an earlier version I got wrong).  The idea here is to check if the write extends
      past the last block in the file.  If so, the function can save itself a lot of
      time and trouble because it knows an allocate will be required.  Benchmarks like
      iozone should see better performance.

      [GFS2] Remove unneeded i_spin · 598278bd
      Bob Peterson authored
      This patch removes a vestigial variable "i_spin" from the gfs2_inode
      structure.  This not only saves us memory (>300000 of these in memory
      for the oom test) it also saves us time because we don't have to
      spend time initializing it (i.e. slightly better performance).

      [GFS2] Reduce inode size by moving i_alloc out of line · 6dbd8224
      Steven Whitehouse authored
      It is possible to reduce the size of GFS2 inodes by taking the i_alloc
      structure out of the gfs2_inode. This patch allocates the i_alloc
      structure whenever its needed, and frees it afterward. This decreases
      the amount of low memory we use at the expense of requiring a memory
      allocation for each page or partial page that we write. A quick test
      with postmark shows that the overhead is not measurable and I also note
      that OCFS2 use the same approach.
      
      In the future I'd like to solve the problem by shrinking down the size
      of the members of the i_alloc structure, but for now, this reduces the
      immediate problem of using too much low-memory on x86 and doesn't add
      too much overhead.

      Although the values were all being calculated correctly, there was a
      race in the assert due to the way it was using atomic variables. This
      changes the value we assert on so that we get the same effect by testing
      a different variable. This prevents the assert triggering when it shouldn't.

      [GFS2] Fix problems relating to execution of files on GFS2 · 9656b2c1
      Steven Whitehouse authored
      This patch fixes a couple of problems which affected the execution of files
      on GFS2. The first is that there was a corner case where inodes were not
      always uptodate at the point at which permissions checks were being carried
      out, this was resulting in refusal of execute permission, but only on the
      first lookup, subsequent requests worked correctly. The second was a problem
      relating to incorrect updating of file sizes which was introduced with the
      write_begin/end code for GFS2 a little while back.
