65299a3b78 block: separate priority boosting from REQ_META
Add a new REQ_PRIO to let requests preempt others in the cfq I/O schedule,
and lave REQ_META purely for marking requests as metadata in blktrace.

All existing callers of REQ_META except for XFS are updated to also
set REQ_PRIO for now.

e77819e57f vfs: move ACL cache lookup into generic code
This moves logic for checking the cached ACL values from low-level
filesystems into generic code.  The end result is a streamlined ACL
check that doesn't need to load the inode->i_op->check_acl pointer at
all for the common cached case.

The filesystems also don't need to check for a non-blocking RCU walk
case in their acl_check() functions, because that is all handled at a
VFS layer.

02c24a8218 fs: push i_mutex and filemap_write_and_wait down into ->fsync() handlers
Btrfs needs to be able to control how filemap_write_and_wait_range() is called
in fsync to make it less of a painful operation, so push down taking i_mutex and
the calling of filemap_write_and_wait() down into the ->fsync() handlers.  Some
file systems can drop taking the i_mutex altogether it seems, like ext3 and
ocfs2.  For correctness sake I just pushed everything down in all cases to make
sure that we keep the current behavior the same for everybody, and then each
individual fs maintainer can make up their mind about what to do from there.

9d8f13ba3f security: new security_inode_init_security API adds function callback
This patch changes the security_inode_init_security API by adding a
filesystem specific callback to write security extended attributes.
This change is in preparation for supporting the initialization of
multiple LSM xattrs and the EVM xattr.  Initially the callback function
walks an array of xattrs, writing each xattr separately, but could be
optimized to write multiple xattrs at once.

For existing security_inode_init_security() calls, which have not yet
been converted to use the new callback function, such as those in
reiserfs and ocfs2, this patch defines security_old_inode_init_security().

17d539f049 GFS2: Cache dir hash table in a contiguous buffer
This patch adds a cache for the hash table to the directory code
in order to help simplify the way in which the hash table is
accessed. This is intended to be a first step towards introducing
some performance improvements in the directory code.

There are two follow ups that I'm hoping to see fairly shortly. One
is to simplify the hash table reading code now that we always read the
complete hash table, whether we want one entry or all of them. The
other is to introduce readahead on the heads of the hash chains
which are referred to from the table.

The hash table is a maximum of 128k in size, so it is not worth trying
to read it in small chunks.

380f7c65a7 GFS2: Resolve inode eviction and ail list interaction bug
This patch contains a few misc fixes which resolve a recently
reported issue. This patch has been a real team effort and has
received a lot of testing.

The first issue is that the ail lock needs to be held over a few
more operations. The lock thats added into gfs2_releasepage() may
possibly be a candidate for replacing with RCU at some future
point, but at this stage we've gone for the obvious fix.

The second issue is that gfs2_write_inode() can end up calling
a glock recursively when called from gfs2_evict_inode() via the
syncing code, so it needs a guard added.

The third issue is that we either need to not truncate the metadata
pages of inodes which have zero link count, but which we cannot
deallocate due to them still being in use by other nodes, or we need
to ensure that those pages have all made it through the journal and
ail lists first. This patch takes the former approach, but the
latter has also been tested and there is nothing to choose between
them performance-wise. So again, we could revise that decision
in the future.

Also, the inode eviction process is now better documented.

3942ae5319 GFS2: Fix race during filesystem mount
There is a potential race during filesystem mounting which has recently
been reported. It occurs when the userland gfs_controld is able to
process requests fast enough that it tries to use the sysfs interface
before the lock module is properly initialised. This is a pretty
unusual case as normally the lock module initialisation is very quick
compared with gfs_controld.

This patch adds an interruptible completion which is used to ensure that
userland will wait for the initialisation of the lock module to
complete.

There are other potential solutions to this problem, but this is the
quickest at this stage and has been tested both with and without
mount.gfs2 present in the system.

1ce533686c GFS2: force a log flush when invalidating the rindex glock
Right now, there is nothing that forces the log to get flushed when a node
drops its rindex glock so that another node can grow the filesystem. If the
log doesn't get flushed, GFS2 can corrupt the sd_log_le_rg list in the
following way.

A node puts an rgd on the list in rg_lo_add(), and then the rindex glock is
dropped so the other node can grow the filesystem. When the node reacquires the
rindex glock, that rgd gets deleted in clear_rgrpdi() before ever being
removed from the list by gfs2_log_flush().

This code simply forces a log flush when the rindex glock is invalidated,
solving the problem.

f90e5b5b13 GFS2: Processes waiting on inode glock that no processes are holding
This patch fixes a race in the GFS2 glock state machine that may
result in lockups.  The symptom is that all nodes but one will
hang, waiting for a particular glock.  All the holder records
will have the "W" (Waiting) bit set.  The other node will
typically have the glock stuck in Exclusive mode (EX) with no
holder records, but the dinode will be cached.  In other words,
an entry with "I:" will appear in the glock dump for that glock,
but nothing else.

The race has to do with the glock "Pending Demote" bit, which
can be set, then immediately reset, thus losing the fact that
another node needs the glock.  The sequence of events is:

1. Something schedules the glock workqueue (e.g. glock request from fs)
2. The glock workqueue gets to the point between the test of the reply pending
bit and the spin lock:

        if (test_and_clear_bit(GLF_REPLY_PENDING, &gl->gl_flags)) {
                finish_xmote(gl, gl->gl_reply);
                drop_ref = 1;
        }
        down_read(&gfs2_umount_flush_sem);         <---- i.e. here
        spin_lock(&gl->gl_spin);

3. In comes (a) the reply to our EX lock request setting GLF_REPLY_PENDING and
            (b) the demote request which sets GLF_PENDING_DEMOTE

4. The following test is executed:

        if (test_and_clear_bit(GLF_PENDING_DEMOTE, &gl->gl_flags) &&
            gl->gl_state != LM_ST_UNLOCKED &&
            gl->gl_demote_state != LM_ST_EXCLUSIVE) {

This resets the pending demote flag, and gl->gl_demote_state is not equal to
exclusive, however because the reply from the dlm arrived after we checked for
the GLF_REPLY_PENDING flag, gl->gl_state is still equal to unlocked, so
although we reset the GLF_PENDING_DEMOTE flag, we didn't then set the
GLF_DEMOTE flag or reinstate the GLF_PENDING_DEMOTE_FLAG.

The patch closes the timing window by only transitioning the
"Pending demote" bit to the "demote" flag once we know the
other conditions (not unlocked and not exclusive) are met.

6d3117b412 GFS2: Wipe directory hash table metadata when deallocating a directory
The deallocation code for directories in GFS2 is largely divided into
two parts. The first part deallocates any directory leaf blocks and
marks the directory as being a regular file when that is complete. The
second stage was identical to deallocating regular files.

Regular files have their data blocks in a different
address space to directories, and thus what would have been normal data
blocks in a regular file (the hash table in a GFS2 directory) were
deallocated correctly. However, a reference to these blocks was left in the
journal (assuming of course that some previous activity had resulted in
those blocks being in the journal or ail list).

This patch uses the i_depth as a test of whether the inode is an
exhash directory (we cannot test the inode type as that has already
been changed to a regular file at this stage in deallocation)

The original issue was reported by Chris Hertel as an issue he encountered
running bonnie++

f2741d9898 GFS2: Move all locking inside the inode creation function
Now that there are no longer any exceptions to the normal inode
creation code path, we can move the parts of the locking code
which were duplicated in mkdir/mknod/create/symlink into the
inode create function.

160b4026dc GFS2: Clean up symlink creation
This moves the symlink specific parts of inode creation
into the function where we initialise the rest of the
dinode. As a result we have one less place where we need
to look up the inode's buffer.

e2d0a13bba GFS2: Clean up mkdir
This moves the initialisation of the directory into the inode
creation functions to avoid having to duplicate the lookup
of the inode's buffer.

32e471ef10 GFS2: Use UUID field in generic superblock
The VFS superblock structure now has a UUID field, so we can use that
in preference to the UUID field in the GFS2 superblock now.

2ab9cd1c63 GFS2: Rename ops_inode.c to inode.c
This is the final part of the ops_inode.c/inode.c reordering. We
are left with a single file called inode.c which now contains
all the inode operations, as expected.

194c011fc4 GFS2: Move most of the remaining inode.c into ops_inode.c
This is in preparation to remove inode.c and rename ops_inode.c
to inode.c. Also most of the functions which were left in inode.c
relate to the creation and lookup of inodes. I'm intending to work
on consolidating some of that code, and its easier when its all in
one place.

94fb763b1a GFS2: Remove gfs2_dinode_print() function
This function was intended for debugging purposes, but it is not very
useful. If we want to know what is on disk then all we need is a
block number and gfs2_edit can give us much better information about
what is there. Otherwise, if we are interested in what is stored in
the in-core inode, it doesn't help us out there either.

3d6ecb7d16 GFS2: When adding a new dir entry, inc link count if it is a subdir
This adds an increment of the link count when we add a new directory
entry, if that entry is itself a directory. This means that we no
longer need separate code to perform this operation.

Now that both adding and removing directory entries automatically
update the parent directory's link count if required, that makes
the code shorter and simpler than before.
