Jens Axboe bbdfc2f706 [SPLICE]: Don't assume regular pages in splice_to_pipe()

other resources that need releasing as well. Needed for

Jens Axboe 0871714e08 cfq-iosched: relax IOPRIO_CLASS_IDLE restrictions
Currently you must be root to set idle io prio class on a process. This
is due to the fact that the idle class is implemented as a true idle
class, meaning that it will not make progress if someone else is
requesting disk access. Unfortunately this means that it opens DOS
opportunities by locking down file system resources, hence it is root
only at the moment.

This patch relaxes the idle class a little, by removing the truly idle
part (which entals a grace period with associated timer). The
modifications make the idle class as close to zero impact as can be done
while still guarenteeing progress. This means we can relax the root only
criteria as well.

Tao Ma 2d4b1cbb44 ocfs2/dlm: Clear joining_node on hearbeat node down
Currently the process of dlm join contains 2 steps: query join and assert join.
After query join, the joined node will set its joining_node. So if the joining
node happens to panic before the 2nd step, the joined node will fail to clear
its joining_node flag because that node isn't in the domain map. It at least
cause 2 problems.
1. All the new join request will fail. So no new node can mount the volume.
2. The joined node can't umount the volume since during the umount process it
   has to wait for the joining_node to be unknown. So the umount will be hanged.

The solution is to clear the joining_node before we check the domain map.

Mark Fasheh cf8e06f1a8 [PATCH 1/2] ocfs2: add flock lock type
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.

Sunil Mushran 2fbe8d1ebe ocfs2: Local alloc window size changeable via mount option
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.

Tao Ma 7909f2bf83 [PATCH 2/2] ocfs2: Implement group add for online resize
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.

OCFS2_IOC_GROUP_EXTEND. This is derived from EXT3_IOC_GROUP_EXTEND, but is
obviously Ocfs2 specific.

cluster group isn't full.

Tao Ma e9d578a8f2 ocfs2: Initalize bitmap_cpg of ocfs2_super to be the maximum.
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.

The meta lock now covers both meta data and data, so this just removes the

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.

Paul E. McKenney e260be673a Preempt-RCU: implementation
This patch implements a new version of RCU which allows its read-side
critical sections to be preempted. It uses a set of counter pairs
to keep track of the read-side critical sections and flips them
when all tasks exit read-side critical section. The details
of this implementation can be found in this paper -

	http://www.rdrop.com/users/paulmck/RCU/OLSrtRCU.2006.08.11a.pdf

and the article-

	http://lwn.net/Articles/253651/

This patch was developed as a part of the -rt kernel development and
meant to provide better latencies when read-side critical sections of
RCU don't disable preemption.  As a consequence of keeping track of RCU
readers, the readers have a slight overhead (optimizations in the paper).
This implementation co-exists with the "classic" RCU implementations
and can be switched to at compiler.

Also includes RCU tracing summarized in debugfs.

Abhijith Das 7bc5c414fe [GFS2] Allow journal recovery on read-only mount
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.

Steven Whitehouse b7fe2e391e [GFS2] Fix page_mkwrite truncation race path
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.
