2008-01-25[PATCH 1/2] ocfs2: add flock lock typeMark Fasheh
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.

2008-01-25ocfs2: Rename ocfs2_meta_[un]lockMark Fasheh
Call this the "inode_lock" now, since it covers both data and meta data. This patch makes no functional changes. Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>
2008-01-25ocfs2: Remove data locksMark Fasheh
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.

2008-01-25ocfs2: Remove mount/unmount votesMark Fasheh
The node maps that are set/unset by these votes are no longer relevant, thus we can remove the mount and umount votes. Since those are the last two remaining votes, we can also remove the entire vote infrastructure. The vote thread has been renamed to the downconvert thread, and the small amount of functionality related to managing it has been moved into fs/ocfs2/dlmglue.c. All references to votes have been removed or updated. Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>
2007-10-12ocfs2: Structure updates for inline dataMark Fasheh
Add the disk, network and memory structures needed to support data in inode. Struct ocfs2_inline_data is defined and embedded in ocfs2_dinode for storing inline data. A new inode field, i_dyn_features, is added to facilitate tracking of dynamic inode state. Since it will be used often, we want to mirror it on ocfs2_inode_info, and transfer it via the meta data lvb.

2007-04-26ocfs2: Remove delete inode voteTiger Yang
Ocfs2 currently does cluster-wide node messaging to check the open state of an inode during delete. This patch removes that mechanism in favor of an inode cluster lock which is taken at shared read when an inode is first read and dropped in clear_inode(). This allows a deleting node to test the liveness of an inode by attempting to take an exclusive lock.

2006-09-24ocfs2: Remove i_generation from inode lock namesMark Fasheh
OCFS2 puts inode meta data in the "lock value block" provided by the DLM. Typically, i_generation is encoded in the lock name so that a deleted inode on and a new one in the same block don't share the same lvb. Unfortunately, that scheme means that the read in ocfs2_read_locked_inode() is potentially thrown away as soon as the meta data lock is taken - we cannot encode the lock name without first knowing i_generation, which requires a disk read. This patch encodes i_generation in the inode meta data lvb, and removes the value from the inode meta data lock name. This way, the read can be covered by a lock, and at the same time we can distinguish between an up to date and a stale LVB. This will help cold-cache stat(2) performance in particular. Since this patch changes the protocol version, we take the opportunity to do a minor re-organization of two of the LVB fields. Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>
2006-09-24ocfs2: Encode i_generation in the meta data lvbMark Fasheh
When i_generation is removed from the lockname, this will help us determine whether a meta data lvb has information that is in sync with the local struct inode. Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>
2006-09-24ocfs2: Free up some space in the lvbMark Fasheh
lvb_version doesn't need to be a whole 32 bits. Make it an 8 bit field to free up some space. This should be backwards compatible until we use one of the fields, in which case we'd bump the lvb version anyway. Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>
2006-09-24ocfs2: Add new cluster lock typeMark Fasheh
Replace the dentry vote mechanism with a cluster lock which covers a set of dentries. This allows us to force d_delete() only on nodes which actually care about an unlink. Every node that does a ->lookup() gets a read only lock on the dentry, until an unlink during which the unlinking node, will request an exclusive lock, forcing the other nodes who care about that dentry to d_delete() it. The effect is that we retain a very lightweight ->d_revalidate(), and at the same time get to make large improvements to the average case performance of the ocfs2 unlink and rename operations. This patch adds the cluster lock type which OCFS2 can attach to dentries. A small number of fs/ocfs2/dcache.c functions are stubbed out so that this change can compile.
