Due to the asynchronous nature of the dlm api, when we request a pending
locking request to be canceled with dlm_unlock(DLM_LKF_CANCEL), the
locking request will either complete before it could be canceled, or the
cancellation will succeed. In either case, gdlm_ast will be called once
and the status will indicate the outcome of the locking request, with
-DLM_ECANCEL indicating a canceled request.
Inside dlm, when a locking request completes before its cancel request
could be processed, gdlm_ast will be called, but the lock will still be
considered busy until a DLM_MSG_CANCEL_REPLY message completes the
cancel request. During that time, successive dlm_lock() or dlm_unlock()
requests for that lock will return -EBUSY. In other words, waiting for
the gdlm_ast call before issuing the next locking request is not enough.
There is no way of waiting for a cancel request to actually complete,
either.
We rarely cancel locking requests, but when we do, we don't know when
the next locking request for that lock will occur. This means that any
dlm_lock() or dlm_unlock() call can potentially return -EBUSY. When
that happens, this patch simply repeats the request after a short pause.
This workaround could be improved upon by tracking for which dlm locks
cancel requests have been issued, but that isn't strictly necessary and
it would complicate the code. We haven't seen -EBUSY errors from dlm
without cancel requests.

In the gfs2 withdraw sequence, the dlm protocol is unmounted with a call
to lm_unmount. After a withdraw, users are allowed to unmount the
withdrawn file system. But at that point we may still have glocks left
over that we need to free via unmount's call to gfs2_gl_hash_clear.
These glocks may have never been completed because of whatever problem
caused the withdraw (IO errors or whatever).
Before this patch, function gdlm_put_lock would still try to call into
dlm to unlock these leftover glocks, which resulted in dlm returning
-EINVAL because the lock space was abandoned. These glocks were never
freed because there was no mechanism after that to free them.
This patch adds a check to gdlm_put_lock to see if the locking protocol
was inactive (DFL_UNMOUNT flag) and if so, free the glock and not
make the invalid call into dlm.
I could have combined this "if" with the one that follows, related to
leftover glock LVBs, but I felt the code was more readable with its own
if clause.

Patch fb6791d100 was designed to allow gfs2 to unmount quicker by
skipping the step where it tells dlm to unlock glocks in EX with lvbs.
This was done because when gfs2 unmounts a file system, it destroys the
dlm lockspace shortly after it destroys the glocks so it doesn't need to
unlock them all: the unlock is implied when the lockspace is destroyed
by dlm.
However, that patch introduced a use-after-free in dlm: as part of its
normal dlm_recoverd process, it can call ls_recovery to recover dead
locks. In so doing, it can call recover_rsbs which calls recover_lvb for
any mastered rsbs. Func recover_lvb runs through the list of lkbs queued
to the given rsb (if the glock is cached but unlocked, it will still be
queued to the lkb, but in NL--Unlocked--mode) and if it has an lvb,
copies it to the rsb, thus trying to preserve the lkb. However, when
gfs2 skips the dlm unlock step, it frees the glock and its lvb, which
means dlm's function recover_lvb references the now freed lvb pointer,
copying the freed lvb memory to the rsb.
This patch changes the check in gdlm_put_lock so that it calls
dlm_unlock for all glocks that contain an lvb pointer.

When a node withdraws from a file system, it often leaves its journal
in an incomplete state. This is especially true when the withdraw is
caused by io errors writing to the journal. Before this patch, a
withdraw would try to write a "shutdown" record to the journal, tell
dlm it's done with the file system, and none of the other nodes
know about the problem. Later, when the problem is fixed and the
withdrawn node is rebooted, it would then discover that its own
journal was incomplete, and replay it. However, replaying it at this
point is almost guaranteed to introduce corruption because the other
nodes are likely to have used affected resource groups that appeared
in the journal since the time of the withdraw. Replaying the journal
later will overwrite any changes made, and not through any fault of
dlm, which was instructed during the withdraw to release those
resources.
This patch makes file system withdraws seen by the entire cluster.
Withdrawing nodes dequeue their journal glock to allow recovery.
The remaining nodes check all the journals to see if they are
clean or in need of replay. They try to replay dirty journals, but
only the journals of withdrawn nodes will be "not busy" and
therefore available for replay.
Until the journal replay is complete, no i/o related glocks may be
given out, to ensure that the replay does not cause the
aforementioned corruption: We cannot allow any journal replay to
overwrite blocks associated with a glock once it is held.
The "live" glock which is now used to signal when a withdraw
occurs. When a withdraw occurs, the node signals its withdraw by
dequeueing the "live" glock and trying to enqueue it in EX mode,
thus forcing the other nodes to all see a demote request, by way
of a "1CB" (one callback) try lock. The "live" glock is not
granted in EX; the callback is only just used to indicate a
withdraw has occurred.
Note that all nodes in the cluster must wait for the recovering
node to finish replaying the withdrawing node's journal before
continuing. To this end, it checks that the journals are clean
multiple times in a retry loop.
Also note that the withdraw function may be called from a wide
variety of situations, and therefore, we need to take extra
precautions to make sure pointers are valid before using them in
many circumstances.
We also need to take care when glocks decide to withdraw, since
the withdraw code now uses glocks.
Also, before this patch, if a process encountered an error and
decided to withdraw, if another process was already withdrawing,
the second withdraw would be silently ignored, which set it free
to unlock its glocks. That's correct behavior if the original
withdrawer encounters further errors down the road. But if
secondary waiters don't wait for the journal replay, unlocking
glocks will allow other nodes to use them, despite the fact that
the journal containing those blocks is being replayed. The
replay needs to finish before our glocks are released to other
nodes. IOW, secondary withdraws need to wait for the first
withdraw to finish.
For example, if an rgrp glock is unlocked by a process that didn't
wait for the first withdraw, a journal replay could introduce file
system corruption by replaying a rgrp block that has already been
granted to a different cluster node.

When a node fails, user space informs dlm of the node failure,
and dlm instructs gfs2 on the surviving nodes to perform journal
recovery. It does this by calling various callback functions in
lock_dlm.c. To mark its progress, it keeps generation numbers
and recover bits in a dlm "control" lock lvb, which is seen by
all nodes to determine which journals need to be replayed.
The gfs2 on all nodes get the same recovery requests from dlm,
so they all try to do the recovery, but only one will be
granted the exclusive lock on the journal. The others fail
with a "Busy" message on their "try lock."
However, when a node is withdrawn, it cannot safely do any
recovery or replay any journals. To make matters worse,
gfs2 might withdraw as a result of attempting recovery. For
example, this might happen if the device goes offline, or if
an hba fails. But in today's gfs2 code, it doesn't check for
being withdrawn at any step in the recovery process. What's
worse is that these callbacks from dlm have no return code,
so there is no way to indicate failure back to dlm. We can
send a "Recovery failed" uevent eventually, but that tells
user space what happened, not dlm's kernel code.
Before this patch, lock_dlm would perform its recovery steps but
ignore the result, and eventually it would still update its
generation number in the lvb, despite the fact that it may have
withdrawn or encountered an error. The other nodes would then
see the newer generation number in the lvb and conclude that
they don't need to do recovery because the generation number
is newer than the last one they saw. They think a different
node has already recovered the journal.
This patch adds checks to several of the callbacks used by dlm
in its recovery state machine so that the functions are ignored
and skipped if an io error has occurred or if the file system
is withdrawn. That prevents the lvb bits from being updated, and
therefore dlm and user space still see the need for recovery to
take place.

This patch fixes a couple problems dealing with spectators who
remain with gfs2 mounts after the last non-spectator node fails.
Before this patch, spectator mounts would try to acquire the dlm's
mounted lock EX as part of its normal recovery sequence.
The mounted lock is only used to determine whether the node is
the first mounter, the first node to mount the file system, for
the purposes of file system recovery and journal replay.
It's not necessary for spectators: they should never do journal
recovery. If they acquire the lock it will prevent another "real"
first-mounter from acquiring the lock in EX mode, which means it
also cannot do journal recovery because it doesn't think it's the
first node to mount the file system.
This patch checks if the mounter is a spectator, and if so, avoids
grabbing the mounted lock. This allows a secondary mounter who is
really the first non-spectator mounter, to do journal recovery:
since the spectator doesn't acquire the lock, it can grab it in
EX mode, and therefore consider itself to be the first mounter
both as a "real" first mount, and as a first-real-after-spectator.
Note that the control lock still needs to be taken in PR mode
in order to fetch the lvb value so it has the current status of
all journal's recovery. This is used as it is today by a first
mounter to replay the journals. For spectators, it's merely
used to fetch the status bits. All recovery is bypassed and the
node waits until recovery is completed by a non-spectator node.
I also improved the cryptic message given by control_mount when
a spectator is waiting for a non-spectator to perform recovery.
It also fixes a problem in gfs2_recover_set whereby spectators
were never queueing recovery work for their own journal.
They cannot do recovery themselves, but they still need to queue
the work so they can check the recovery bits and clear the
DFL_BLOCK_LOCKS bit once the recovery happens on another node.
When the work queue runs on a spectator, it bypasses most of the
work so it won't print a bunch of annoying messages. All it will
print is a bunch of messages that look like this until recovery
completes on the non-spectator node:
GFS2: fsid=mycluster:scratch.s: recover generation 3 jid 0
GFS2: fsid=mycluster:scratch.s: recover jid 0 result busy
These continue every 1.5 seconds until the recovery is done by
the non-spectator, at which time it says:
GFS2: fsid=mycluster:scratch.s: recover generation 4 done
Then it proceeds with its mount.
If the file system is mounted in spectator node and the last
remaining non-spectator is fenced, any IO to the file system is
blocked by dlm and the spectator waits until recovery is
performed by a non-spectator.
If a spectator tries to mount the file system before any
non-spectators, it blocks and repeatedly gives this kernel
message:
GFS2: fsid=mycluster:scratch: Recovery is required. Waiting for a non-spectator to mount.
GFS2: fsid=mycluster:scratch: Recovery is required. Waiting for a non-spectator to mount.

When using cman-3.0.12.1 and gfs2-utils-3.0.12.1, mounting and

allocator suggests that it is likely a double free memory corruption.
The issue is traced back to v3.9-rc6 where a patch is submitted to
use kzalloc() for storing a bitmap instead of using a local variable.
The intention is to allocate memory during mount and to free memory
during unmount. The original patch misses a code path which has
already freed the memory and caused memory corruption. This patch sets
the memory pointer to NULL after the memory is freed, so that double
free memory corruption will not happen.

The current "wait_on_bit" interface requires an 'action'
function to be provided which does the actual waiting.
There are over 20 such functions, many of them identical.
Most cases can be satisfied by one of just two functions, one
which uses io_schedule() and one which just uses schedule().
So:
Rename wait_on_bit and wait_on_bit_lock to
wait_on_bit_action and wait_on_bit_lock_action
to make it explicit that they need an action function.
Introduce new wait_on_bit{,_lock} and wait_on_bit{,_lock}_io
which are *not* given an action function but implicitly use
a standard one.
The decision to error-out if a signal is pending is now made
based on the 'mode' argument rather than being encoded in the action
function.
All instances of the old wait_on_bit and wait_on_bit_lock which
can use the new version have been changed accordingly and their
action functions have been discarded.
wait_on_bit{_lock} does not return any specific error code in the
event of a signal so the caller must check for non-zero and
interpolate their own error code as appropriate.
The wait_on_bit() call in __fscache_wait_on_invalidate() was
ambiguous as it specified TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE but used
fscache_wait_bit_interruptible as an action function.
David Howells confirms this should be uniformly
"uninterruptible"
The main remaining user of wait_on_bit{,_lock}_action is NFS
which needs to use a freezer-aware schedule() call.
A comment in fs/gfs2/glock.c notes that having multiple 'action'
functions is useful as they display differently in the 'wchan'
field of 'ps'. (and /proc/$PID/wchan).
As the new bit_wait{,_io} functions are tagged "__sched", they
will not show up at all, but something higher in the stack. So
the distinction will still be visible, only with different
function names (gds2_glock_wait versus gfs2_glock_dq_wait in the
gfs2/glock.c case).
Since first version of this patch (against 3.15) two new action
functions appeared, on in NFS and one in CIFS. CIFS also now
uses an action function that makes the same freezer aware
schedule call as NFS.

When unmounting, gfs2 does a full dlm_unlock operation on every
cached lock. This can create a very large amount of work and can
take a long time to complete. However, the vast majority of these
dlm unlock operations are unnecessary because after all the unlocks
are done, gfs2 leaves the dlm lockspace, which automatically clears
the locks of the leaving node, without unlocking each one individually.
So, gfs2 can skip explicit dlm unlocks, and use dlm_release_lockspace to
remove the locks implicitly. The one exception is when the lock's lvb is
being used. In this case, dlm_unlock is called because it may update the
lvb of the resource.

The "nodir" mode (statically assign master nodes instead
of using the resource directory) has always been highly
experimental, and never seriously used. This commit
fixes a number of problems, making nodir much more usable.
- Major change to recovery: recover all locks and restart
all in-progress operations after recovery. In some
cases it's not possible to know which in-progess locks
to recover, so recover all. (Most require recovery
in nodir mode anyway since rehashing changes most
master nodes.)
- Change the way nodir mode is enabled, from a command
line mount arg passed through gfs2, into a sysfs
file managed by dlm_controld, consistent with the
other config settings.
- Allow recovering MSTCPY locks on an rsb that has not
yet been turned into a master copy.
- Ignore RCOM_LOCK and RCOM_LOCK_REPLY recovery messages
from a previous, aborted recovery cycle. Base this
on the local recovery status not being in the state
where any nodes should be sending LOCK messages for the
current recovery cycle.
- Hold rsb lock around dlm_purge_mstcpy_locks() because it
may run concurrently with dlm_recover_master_copy().
- Maintain highbast on process-copy lkb's (in addition to
the master as is usual), because the lkb can switch
back and forth between being a master and being a
process copy as the master node changes in recovery.
- When recovering MSTCPY locks, flag rsb's that have
non-empty convert or waiting queues for granting
at the end of recovery. (Rename flag from LOCKS_PURGED
to RECOVER_GRANT and similar for the recovery function,
because it's not only resources with purged locks
that need grant a grant attempt.)
- Replace a couple of unnecessary assertion panics with
error messages.

This patch instructs DLM to prevent an "in place" conversion, where the
lock just stays on the granted queue, and instead forces the conversion to
the back of the convert queue. This is done on upward conversions only.
This is useful in cases where, for example, a lock is frequently needed in
PR on one node, but another node needs it temporarily in EX to update it.
This may happen, for example, when the rindex is being updated by gfs2_grow.
The gfs2_grow needs to have the lock in EX, but the other nodes need to
re-read it to retrieve the updates. The glock is already granted in PR on
the non-growing nodes, so this prevents them from continually re-granting
the lock in PR, and forces the EX from gfs2_grow to go through.

The stats are divided into two sets: those relating to the
super block and those relating to an individual glock. The
super block stats are done on a per cpu basis in order to
try and reduce the overhead of gathering them. They are also
further divided by glock type.
In the case of both the super block and glock statistics,
the same information is gathered in each case. The super
block statistics are used to provide default values for
most of the glock statistics, so that newly created glocks
should have, as far as possible, a sensible starting point.
The statistics are divided into three pairs of mean and
variance, plus two counters. The mean/variance pairs are
smoothed exponential estimates and the algorithm used is
one which will be very familiar to those used to calculation
of round trip times in network code.
The three pairs of mean/variance measure the following
things:
1. DLM lock time (non-blocking requests)
2. DLM lock time (blocking requests)
3. Inter-request time (again to the DLM)
A non-blocking request is one which will complete right
away, whatever the state of the DLM lock in question. That
currently means any requests when (a) the current state of
the lock is exclusive (b) the requested state is either null
or unlocked or (c) the "try lock" flag is set. A blocking
request covers all the other lock requests.
There are two counters. The first is there primarily to show
how many lock requests have been made, and thus how much data
has gone into the mean/variance calculations. The other counter
is counting queueing of holders at the top layer of the glock
code. Hopefully that number will be a lot larger than the number
of dlm lock requests issued.
So why gather these statistics? There are several reasons
we'd like to get a better idea of these timings:
1. To be able to better set the glock "min hold time"
2. To spot performance issues more easily
3. To improve the algorithm for selecting resource groups for
allocation (to base it on lock wait time, rather than blindly
using a "try lock")
Due to the smoothing action of the updates, a step change in
some input quantity being sampled will only fully be taken
into account after 8 samples (or 4 for the variance) and this
needs to be carefully considered when interpreting the
results.
Knowing both the time it takes a lock request to complete and
the average time between lock requests for a glock means we
can compute the total percentage of the time for which the
node is able to use a glock vs. time that the rest of the
cluster has its share. That will be very useful when setting
the lock min hold time.
The other point to remember is that all times are in
nanoseconds. Great care has been taken to ensure that we
measure exactly the quantities that we want, as accurately
as possible. There are always inaccuracies in any
measuring system, but I hope this is as accurate as we
can reasonably make it.

This new method of managing recovery is an alternative to
the previous approach of using the userland gfs_controld.
- use dlm slot numbers to assign journal id's
- use dlm recovery callbacks to initiate journal recovery
- use a dlm lock to determine the first node to mount fs
- use a dlm lock to track journals that need recovery

These new callbacks notify the dlm user about lock recovery.
GFS2, and possibly others, need to be aware of when the dlm
will be doing lock recovery for a failed lockspace member.
In the past, this coordination has been done between dlm and
file system daemons in userspace, which then direct their
kernel counterparts. These callbacks allow the same
coordination directly, and more simply.

This patch fixes a race in deallocating glocks which was introduced
in the RCU glock patch. We need to ensure that the glock count is
kept correct even in the case that there is a race to add a new
glock into the hash table. Also, to avoid having to wait for an
RCU grace period, the glock counter can be decremented before
call_rcu() is called.

This has a number of advantages:
- Reduces contention on the hash table lock
- Makes the code smaller and simpler
- Should speed up glock dumps when under load
- Removes ref count changing in examine_bucket
- No longer need hash chain lock in glock_put() in common case
There are some further changes which this enables and which
we may do in the future. One is to look at using SLAB_RCU,
and another is to look at using a per-cpu counter for the
per-sb glock counter, since that is touched twice in the
lifetime of each glock (but only used at umount time).

We can only merge the fields into a bitfield if the locking
rules for them are the same. In this case gl_spin covers all
of the fields (write side) but a couple of them are used
with GLF_LOCK as the read side lock, which should be ok
since we know that the field in question won't be changing
at the time.
The gl_req setting has to be done earlier (in glock.c) in order
to place it under gl_spin. The gl_reply setting also has to be
brought under gl_spin in order to comply with the new rules.
This saves 4*sizeof(unsigned int) per glock.

The DLM never returns -EAGAIN in response to dlm_lock(), and even
if it did, the test in gdlm_lock() was wrong anyway. Once that
test is removed, it is possible to greatly simplify this code
by simply using a "normal" error return code (0 for success).
We then no longer need the LM_OUT_ASYNC return code which can
be removed.

GFS2's idea of which return codes it needs to handle was based
upon those listed in dlm.h. Those didn't cover all the possible
codes and listed some which never happen. This updates GFS2 to
handle all the codes which can actually be returned from the
DLM under various circumstances.

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.
