For its journal processing, gfs2 kept track of the number of buffers
added and removed on a per-transaction basis. These values are used
to calculate space needed in the journal. But while these calculations
make sense for the number of buffers, they make no sense for revokes.
Revokes are managed in their own list, linked from the superblock.
So it's entirely unnecessary to keep separate per-transaction counts
for revokes added and removed. A single count will do the same job.
Therefore, this patch combines the transaction revokes into a single
count.

Use bios to read in the journal into the address space of the journal inode
(jd_inode), sequentially and in large chunks. This is faster for locating the

The gl_revokes value determines how many outstanding revokes a glock has
on the superblock revokes list; this is used to avoid unnecessary log
flushes. However, gl_revokes is only ever tested for being zero, and it's
only decremented in revoke_lo_after_commit, which removes all revokes
from the list, so we know that the gl_revoke values of all the glocks on
the list will reach zero. Therefore, we can replace gl_revokes with a
bit flag. This saves an atomic counter in struct gfs2_glock.

This patch has to do with the life cycle of glocks and buffers. When
gfs2 metadata or journaled data is queued to be written, a gfs2_bufdata
object is assigned to track the buffer, and that is queued to various
lists, including the glock's gl_ail_list to indicate it's on the active
items list. Once the page associated with the buffer has been written,
it is removed from the ail list, but its life isn't over until a revoke
has been successfully written.
So after the block is written, its bufdata object is moved from the
glock's gl_ail_list to a file-system-wide list of pending revokes,
sd_log_le_revoke. At that point the glock still needs to track how many
revokes it contributed to that list (in gl_revokes) so that things like
glock go_sync can ensure all the metadata has been not only written, but
also revoked before the glock is granted to a different node. This is
to guarantee journal replay doesn't replay the block once the glock has
been granted to another node.
Ross Lagerwall recently discovered a race in which an inode could be
evicted, and its glock freed after its ail list had been synced, but
while it still had unwritten revokes on the sd_log_le_revoke list. The
evict decremented the glock reference count to zero, which allowed the
glock to be freed. After the revoke was written, function
revoke_lo_after_commit tried to adjust the glock's gl_revokes counter
and clear its GLF_LFLUSH flag, at which time it referenced the freed
glock.
This patch fixes the problem by incrementing the glock reference count
in gfs2_add_revoke when the glock's first bufdata object is moved from
the glock to the global revokes list. Later, when the glock's last such
bufdata object is freed, the reference count is decremented. This
guarantees that whichever process finishes last (the revoke writing or
the evict) will properly free the glock, and neither will reference the
glock after it has been freed.

This patch fixes regressions in 588bff95c9.
Due to that patch, function clean_journal was setting the value of
sd_log_flush_head, but that's only valid if it is replaying the node's
own journal. If it's replaying another node's journal, that's completely
wrong and will lead to multiple problems. This patch tries to clean up
the mess by passing the value of the logical journal block number into
gfs2_write_log_header so the function can treat non-owned journals
generically. For the local journal, the journal extent map is used for
best performance. For other nodes from other journals, new function
gfs2_lblk_to_dblk is called to figure it out using gfs2_iomap_get.
This patch also tries to establish more consistency when passing journal
block parameters by changing several unsigned int types to a consistent
u32.

All the other functions that deal with the sd_ail_list run the list
from the tail back to the head, iow, in reverse. We should do the

When an io error is hit, it calls gfs2_io_error_bh_i for every
journal buffer it can't write. Since we changed gfs2_io_error_bh_i

Before this patch, there was a lot of code redundancy between functions
log_write_header (which uses bio) and clean_journal (which uses
buffer_head). This patch reduces the redundancy to simplify the code
and make log header writing more consistent. We want more consistency
and reduced redundancy because we plan to add a bunch of new fields
to improve performance (by eliminating the local statfs and quota files)
improve metadata integrity (by adding new crcs and such) and for better
debugging (by adding new fields to track when and where metadata was
pushed through the journals.) We don't want to duplicate setting these
new fields, nor allow for human error in the process.
This reduction in code redundancy is accomplished by introducing a new
helper function, gfs2_write_log_header which uses bio rather than bh.
That simplifies recovery function clean_journal() to use the new helper
function and iomap rather than redundancy and block_map (and eventually
we can maybe remove block_map). It also reduces our dependency on
buffer_heads.

Before this patch, if GFS2 encountered IO errors while writing to
the journal, it would not report the problem, so they would go
unnoticed, sometimes for many hours. Sometimes this would only be
noticed later, when recovery tried to do journal replay and failed
due to invalid metadata at the blocks that resulted in IO errors.
This patch makes GFS2's log daemon check for IO errors. If it
encounters one, it withdraws from the file system and reports
why in dmesg. A similar action is taken when IO errors occur when
writing to the system statfs file.
These errors are also reported back to any callers of fsync, since
that requires the journal to be flushed. Therefore, any IO errors
that would previously go unnoticed are now noticed and the file
system is withdrawn as early as possible, thus preventing further
file system damage.
Also note that this reintroduces superblock variable sd_log_error,
which Christoph removed with commit f729b66fca.

On systems with low memory, it is possible for gfs2 to infinitely
loop in balance_dirty_pages() under heavy IO (creating sparse files).
balance_dirty_pages() attempts to write out the dirty pages via
gfs2_writepages() but none are found because these dirty pages are
being used by the journaling code in the ail. Normally, the journal
has an upper threshold which when hit triggers an automatic flush
of the ail. But this threshold can be higher than the number of
allowable dirty pages and result in the ail never being flushed.
This patch forces an ail flush when gfs2_writepages() fails to write
anything. This is a good indication that the ail might be holding
some dirty pages.

Before this patch, if a process called function gfs2_log_reserve to
reserve some journal blocks, but the journal not enough blocks were
free, it would call io_schedule. However, in the log flush daemon,
it woke up the waiters only if an gfs2_ail_flush was no longer

forever because the number of blocks required was so high that it
pushed the journal into a perpetual state of flush being required.

When gfs2 was unmounting filesystems or changing them to read-only it
was clearing the SDF_JOURNAL_LIVE bit before the final log flush. This
caused a race. If an inode glock got demoted in the gap between
clearing the bit and the shutdown flush, it would be unable to reserve
log space to clear out the active items list in inode_go_sync, causing an
error in inode_go_inval because the glock was still dirty.
To solve this, the SDF_JOURNAL_LIVE bit is now cleared inside the
shutdown log flush. This means that, because of the locking on the log
blocks, either inode_go_sync will be able to reserve space to clean the
glock before the shutdown flush, or the shutdown flush will clean the
glock itself, before inode_go_sync fails to reserve the space. Either
way, the glock will be clean before inode_go_inval.

The current gfs2 freezing code is considerably more complicated than it
should be because it doesn't use the vfs freezing code on any node except
the one that begins the freeze. This is because it needs to acquire a
cluster glock before calling the vfs code to prevent a deadlock, and
without the new freeze_super and thaw_super hooks, that was impossible. To
deal with the issue, gfs2 had to do some hacky locking tricks to make sure
that a frozen node couldn't be holding on a lock it needed to do the
unfreeze ioctl.
This patch makes use of the new hooks to simply the gfs2 locking code. Now,
all the nodes in the cluster freeze and thaw in exactly the same way. Every
node in the cluster caches the freeze glock in the shared state. The new
freeze_super hook allows the freezing node to grab this freeze glock in
the exclusive state without first calling the vfs freeze_super function.
All the nodes in the cluster see this lock change, and call the vfs
freeze_super function. The vfs locking code guarantees that the nodes can't
get stuck holding the glocks necessary to unfreeze the system. To
unfreeze, the freezing node uses the new thaw_super hook to drop the freeze
glock. Again, all the nodes notice this, reacquire the glock in shared mode
and call the vfs thaw_super function.

GFS2 has a transaction glock, which must be grabbed for every
transaction, whose purpose is to deal with freezing the filesystem.
Aside from this involving a large amount of locking, it is very easy to
make the current fsfreeze code hang on unfreezing.
This patch rewrites how gfs2 handles freezing the filesystem. The
transaction glock is removed. In it's place is a freeze glock, which is
cached (but not held) in a shared state by every node in the cluster
when the filesystem is mounted. This lock only needs to be grabbed on
freezing, and actions which need to be safe from freezing, like
recovery.
When a node wants to freeze the filesystem, it grabs this glock
exclusively. When the freeze glock state changes on the nodes (either
from shared to unlocked, or shared to exclusive), the filesystem does a
special log flush. gfs2_log_flush() does all the work for flushing out
the and shutting down the incore log, and then it tries to grab the
freeze glock in a shared state again. Since the filesystem is stuck in
gfs2_log_flush, no new transaction can start, and nothing can be written
to disk. Unfreezing the filesytem simply involes dropping the freeze
glock, allowing gfs2_log_flush() to grab and then release the shared
lock, so it is cached for next time.
However, in order for the unfreezing ioctl to occur, gfs2 needs to get a
shared lock on the filesystem root directory inode to check permissions.
If that glock has already been grabbed exclusively, fsfreeze will be
unable to get the shared lock and unfreeze the filesystem.
In order to allow the unfreeze, this patch makes gfs2 grab a shared lock
on the filesystem root directory during the freeze, and hold it until it
unfreezes the filesystem. The functions which need to grab a shared
lock in order to allow the unfreeze ioctl to be issued now use the lock
grabbed by the freeze code instead.
The freeze and unfreeze code take care to make sure that this shared
lock will not be dropped while another process is using it.

Upstream commit 34cc178 changed a line of code from calling function
log_flush_commit to calling log_write_header. This had the effect of
eliminating a call to function log_flush_wait. That causes the journal
to skip over log headers, which results in multiple wrap points,
which itself leads to infinite loops in journal replay, both in the
kernel code and fsck.gfs2 code. This patch re-adds that call.

Now we have a master transaction into which other transactions
are merged, the accounting can be done using this master
transaction. We no longer require the superblock fields which
were being used for this function.
In addition, this allows for a clean up in calc_reserved()
making it rather easier understand. Also, by reducing the
number of variables used to track the buffers being added
and removed from the journal, a number of error checks are
now no longer required.

Over time, we hope to be able to improve the concurrency available
in the log code. This is one small step towards that, by moving
the buffer lists from the super block, and into the transaction
structure, so that each transaction builds its own buffer lists.
At transaction commit time, the buffer lists are merged into
the currently accumulating transaction. That transaction then
is passed into the before and after commit functions at journal
flush time. Thus there should be no change in overall behaviour
yet.

When we do a flush of the AIL list, we are writing out what is
likely to be a lot of small I/Os, which are possibly in an order
which is not ideal performance-wise. Since this is done by calling
filemap_fdatatwrite for each individual inode's address space there
is no overall plugging going on.
In addition to that, we do not always wait for AIL i/o when we flush
it, so that it is possible for things to get left behind on the queue.
By adding explicit plugging here, we reduce the chances of this
being an issues. A quick test using the AIL flush tracepoint shows a
small, but measurable improvement.

Function gfs2_remove_from_ail drops the reference on the bh via
brelse. This patch fixes a race condition whereby bh is deferenced
after the brelse when setting bd->bd_blkno = bh->b_blocknr;
Under certain rare circumstances, bh might be gone or reused,
and bd->bd_blkno is set to whatever that memory happens to be,
which is often 0. Later, in gfs2_trans_add_unrevoke, that bd fails
the test "bd->bd_blkno >= blkno" which causes it to never be freed.
The end result is that the bd is never freed from the bufdata cache,
which results in this error:
slab error in kmem_cache_destroy(): cache `gfs2_bufdata': Can't free all objects

This patch looks at all the outstanding blocks in all the transactions
on the log, and moves the completed ones to the ail2 list. Then it
issues revokes for these blocks. This will hopefully speed things up
in situations where there is a lot of contention for glocks, especially
if they are acquired serially.
revoke_lo_before_commit will issue at most one log block's full of these
preemptive revokes. The amount of reserved log space that
gfs2_log_reserve() ignores has been incremented to allow for this extra
block.
This patch also consolidates the common revoke instructions into one
function, gfs2_add_revoke().

In order to allow transactions and log flushes to happen at the same
time, gfs2 needs to move the transaction accounting and active items
list code into the gfs2_trans structure. As a first step toward this,
this patch removes the gfs2_ail structure, and handles the active items
list in the gfs_trans structure. This keeps gfs2 from allocating an ail
structure on log flushes, and gives us a struture that can later be used
to store the transaction accounting outside of the gfs2 superblock
structure.
With this patch, at the end of a transaction, gfs2 will add the
gfs2_trans structure to the superblock if there is not one already.
This structure now has the active items fields that were previously in
gfs2_ail. This is not necessary in the case where the transaction was
simply used to add revokes, since these are never written outside of the
journal, and thus, don't need an active items list.
Also, in order to make sure that the transaction structure is not
removed while it's still in use by gfs2_trans_end, unlocking the
sd_log_flush_lock has to happen slightly later in ending the
transaction.

Instead of using a list of buffers to write ahead of the journal
flush, this now uses a list of inodes and calls ->writepages
via filemap_fdatawrite() in order to achieve the same thing. For
most use cases this results in a shorter ordered write list,
as well as much larger i/os being issued.
The ordered write list is sorted by inode number before writing
in order to retain the disk block ordering between inodes as
per the previous code.
The previous ordered write code used to conflict in its assumptions
about how to write out the disk blocks with mpage_writepages()
so that with this updated version we can also use mpage_writepages()
for GFS2's ordered write, writepages implementation. So we will
also send larger i/os from writeback too.
