dlm: fixes for nodir mode

2012-05-02T19:15:27+00:00

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.

dlm: improve error and debug messages

2012-04-26T20:41:46+00:00

Change some existing error/debug messages to collect more useful information, and add some new error/debug messages to address recently found problems. Signed-off-by: David Teigland

dlm: avoid unnecessary search in search_rsb

2012-04-26T20:37:56+00:00

If the rsb is found in the "keep" tree, but is not the right type (i.e. not MASTER), we can return immediately with the result. There's no point in going on to search the "toss" list as if we hadn't found it. Signed-off-by: David Teigland

dlm: fix waiter recovery

2012-04-26T20:36:04+00:00

An outstanding remote operation (an lkb on the "waiter" list) could sometimes miss being resent during recovery. The decision was based on the lkb_nodeid field, which could have changed during an earlier aborted recovery, so it no longer represents the actual remote destination. The lkb_wait_nodeid is always the actual remote node, so it is the best value to use. Signed-off-by: David Teigland

dlm: fix QUECVT when convert queue is empty

2012-04-23T16:30:59+00:00

The QUECVT flag should not prevent conversions from being granted immediately when the convert queue is empty. Signed-off-by: David Teigland

dlm: fix slow rsb search in dir recovery

2012-03-08T20:46:30+00:00

The function used to find an rsb during directory recovery was searching the single linear list of rsb's. This wasted a lot of time compared to using the standard hash table to find the rsb. Signed-off-by: David Teigland

dlm: convert rsb list to rb_tree

2011-11-18T16:20:15+00:00

Change the linked lists to rb_tree's in the rsb hash table to speed up searches. Slow rsb searches were having a large impact on gfs2 performance due to the large number of dlm locks gfs2 uses. Signed-off-by: Bob Peterson Signed-off-by: David Teigland

dlm: use workqueue for callbacks

2011-07-15T17:30:43+00:00

Instead of creating our own kthread (dlm_astd) to deliver callbacks for all lockspaces, use a per-lockspace workqueue to deliver the callbacks. This eliminates complications and slowdowns from many lockspaces sharing the same thread. Signed-off-by: David Teigland

dlm: remove deadlock debug print

2011-07-14T17:31:49+00:00

gfs2 recently began using this feature heavily, creating more debug output than we want to see. Signed-off-by: David Teigland

dlm: improve rsb searches

2011-07-12T21:02:09+00:00

By pre-allocating rsb structs before searching the hash table, they can be inserted immediately. This avoids always having to repeat the search when adding the struct to hash list. This also adds space to the rsb struct for a max resource name, so an rsb allocation can be used by any request. The constant size also allows us to finally use a slab for the rsb structs.
