The semantic effect of insert_at_head is that it would allow new registered
sysctl entries to override existing sysctl entries of the same name. Which is
pain for caching and the proc interface never implemented.
I have done an audit and discovered that none of the current users of
register_sysctl care as (excpet for directories) they do not register
duplicate sysctl entries.
So this patch simply removes the support for overriding existing entries in
the sys_sysctl interface since no one uses it or cares and it makes future
enhancments harder.

As was already pointed out Mathieu Avila on Thu, 07 Sep 2006 03:15:25 -0700
that OCFS2 is expecting bio_add_page() to add pages to BIOs in an easily
predictable manner.
That is not true, especially for devices with own merge_bvec_fn().
Therefore OCFS2's heartbeat code is very likely to fail on such devices.
Move the bio_put() call into the bio's bi_end_io() function. This makes the
whole idea of trying to predict the behaviour of bio_add_page() unnecessary.

When there is a lot of multithreaded I/O usage, two threads can collide
while sending out a message to the other nodes. This is due to the lack of
locking between threads while sending out the messages.
When a connected TCP send(), sendto(), or sendmsg() arrives in the Linux
kernel, it eventually comes through tcp_sendmsg(). tcp_sendmsg() protects
itself by acquiring a lock at invocation by calling lock_sock().
tcp_sendmsg() then loops over the buffers in the iovec, allocating
associated sk_buff's and cache pages for use in the actual send. As it does
so, it pushes the data out to tcp for actual transmission. However, if one
of those allocation fails (because a large number of large sends is being
processed, for example), it must wait for memory to become available. It
does so by jumping to wait_for_sndbuf or wait_for_memory, both of which
eventually cause a call to sk_stream_wait_memory(). sk_stream_wait_memory()
contains a code path that calls sk_wait_event(). Finally, sk_wait_event()
contains the call to release_sock().
The following patch adds a lock to the socket container in order to
properly serialize outbound requests.

There is a small window where a joining node may not see the node(s) that

join requests if the joining node has a different node map.
A new field node_map is added to dlm_query_join_request to send the current
nodes nodemap along with join request. On the receiving end the nodes that
are part of the cluster verifies if this new node sees all the nodes that
are still part of the cluster. They disallow the join if the maps mismatch.

OCFS2 does some operations on i_nlink, then reverts them if some of its

So, delay all of the nlink operations until we're sure that the operations
have completed. Also, introduce a small helper to check whether an inode

save memory taken up by in-core inodes, the first thing you should do is
disable the debugging options; they are responsible for a huge amount of bloat
in the VFS inode structure).
This patch:
The filesystem or device-specific pointer in the inode is inside a union,
which is pretty pointless given that all 30+ users of this field have been
using the void pointer. Get rid of the union and rename it to i_private, with
a comment to explain who is allowed to use the void pointer. This is just a

* Code in drivers/acpi/osl.c does the following to be sure:
(void)kmem_cache_destroy(cache);
* Those who check it printk something, however, slab_error already printed
the name of failed cache.
* XFS BUGs on failed kmem_cache_destroy which is not the decision
low-level filesystem driver should make. Converted to ignore.

With this, we don't need to pass an additional struct with function pointer.
Now that the callbacks are fully used, comment the remaining API.

Have ocfs2_process_blocked_lock() call ocfs2_generic_unblock_lock(), which
gets to be ocfs2_unblock_lock() now that it's the only possible unblock
function.
Remove the ->unblock() callback from the structure, and all lock type
specific unblock functions.

The meta data unblocking code no longer needs ocfs2_do_unblock_meta() or
ocfs2_can_downconvert_meta_lock(), so remove them.

Fill in the ->check_downconvert and ->set_lvb callbacks with meta data
specific operations and switch ocfs2_unblock_meta() to call
ocfs2_generic_unblock_lock()

Allow a lock type to specifiy whether it makes use of the LVB. The only type
which does this right now is the meta data lock. This should save us some
space on network messages since they won't have to needlessly transmit value
blocks.

There is extremely little difference between the two now. We can remove the
callback from ocfs2_lock_res_ops as well.
