2006-05-18[GFS2] Update copyright date to 2006Steven Whitehouse
Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2006-05-18[GFS2] Remove semaphore.h from C filesSteven Whitehouse
We no longer use semaphores, everything has been converted to mutex or rwsem, so we don't need to include this header any more. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2006-04-21[GFS2] Move BUG() back into the header fileSteven Whitehouse
In order to make the file and line number reporting work correctly, this has been moved back into the header file. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

2006-03-28[GFS2] Further updates to dir and logging codeSteven Whitehouse
This reduces the size of the directory code by about 3k and gets readdir() to use the functions which were introduced in the previous directory code update. Two memory allocations are merged into one. Eliminates zeroing of some buffers which were never used before they were initialised by other data. There is still scope for further improvement in the directory code. On the logging side, a hand created mutex has been replaced by a standard Linux mutex in the log allocation code.

2006-02-27[GFS2] Macros removal in gfs2.hSteven Whitehouse
As suggested by Pekka Enberg <penberg@cs.helsinki.fi>. The DIV_RU macro is renamed DIV_ROUND_UP and and moved to kernel.h The other macros are gone from gfs2.h as (although not requested by Pekka Enberg) are a number of included header file which are now included individually. The inode number comparison function is now an inline function. The DT2IF and IF2DT may be addressed in a future patch. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2006-02-08[GFS2] Make journaled data files identical to normal files on diskSteven Whitehouse
This is a very large patch, with a few still to be resolved issues so you might want to check out the previous head of the tree since this is known to be unstable. Fixes for the various bugs will be forthcoming shortly. This patch removes the special data format which has been used up till now for journaled data files. Directories still retain the old format so that they will remain on disk compatible with earlier releases. As a result you can now do the following with journaled data files: 1) mmap them 2) export them over NFS 3) convert to/from normal files whenever you want to (the zero length restriction is gone) In addition the level at which GFS' locking is done has changed for all files (since they all now use the page cache) such that the locking is done at the page cache level rather than the level of the fs operations. This should mean that things like loopback mounts and other things which touch the page cache directly should now work. Current known issues: 1. There is a lock mode inversion problem related to the resource group hold function which needs to be resolved. 2. Any significant amount of I/O causes an oops with an offset of hex 320 (NULL pointer dereference) which appears to be related to a journaled data buffer appearing on a list where it shouldn't be. 3. Direct I/O writes are disabled for the time being (will reappear later) 4. There is probably a deadlock between the page lock and GFS' locks under certain combinations of mmap and fs operation I/O. 5. Issue relating to ref counting on internally used inodes causes a hang on umount (discovered before this patch, and not fixed by it) 6. One part of the directory metadata is different from GFS1 and will need to be resolved before next release. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
