In the current glock reference counting model, a bias of one is added to
a glock's refcount when it is locked (gl->gl_state != LM_ST_UNLOCKED).
A glock is removed from the lru_list when it is enqueued, and added back
when it is dequeued. This isn't a very appropriate model because most
glocks are held for long periods of time (for example, the inode "owns"
references to its inode and iopen glocks as long as the inode is cached
even when the glock state changes to LM_ST_UNLOCKED), and they can only
be freed when they are no longer referenced, anyway.
Fix this by getting rid of the refcount bias for locked glocks. That
way, we can use lockref_put_or_lock() to efficiently drop all but the
last glock reference, and put the glock onto the lru_list when the last
reference is dropped. When find_insert_glock() returns a reference to a
cached glock, it removes the glock from the lru_list.
Dumping the "glocks" and "glstats" debugfs files also takes glock
references, but instead of removing the glocks from the lru_list in that
case as well, we leave them on the list. This ensures that dumping
those files won't perturb the order of the glocks on the lru_list.
In addition, when the last reference to an *unlocked* glock is dropped,
we immediately free it; this preserves the preexisting behavior. If it
later turns out that caching unlocked glocks is useful in some
situations, we can change the caching strategy.
It is currently unclear if a glock that has no active references can
have the GLF_LFLUSH flag set. To make sure that such a glock won't
accidentally be evicted due to memory pressure, we add a GLF_LFLUSH
check to gfs2_dispose_glock_lru().

When a DLM lockspace is released and there ares still locks in that
lockspace, DLM will unlock those locks automatically. Commit
fb6791d100 started exploiting this behavior to speed up filesystem
unmount: gfs2 would simply free glocks it didn't want to unlock and then
release the lockspace. This didn't take the bast callbacks for
asynchronous lock contention notifications into account, which remain
active until until a lock is unlocked or its lockspace is released.
To prevent those callbacks from accessing deallocated objects, put the
glocks that should not be unlocked on the sd_dead_glocks list, release
the lockspace, and only then free those glocks.
As an additional measure, ignore unexpected ast and bast callbacks if
the receiving glock is dead.

unlocked) while delete work is pending. It turns out that demoting the
iopen glock while delete work is pending is perfectly fine; we only need

Before this patch, when a glock was locked, the very first holder on the
queue would unlock the lockref and call the go_instantiate glops function
(if one existed), unless GL_SKIP was specified. When we introduced the new
node-scope concept, we allowed multiple holders to lock glocks in EX mode
and share the lock.
But node-scope introduced a new problem: if the first holder has GL_SKIP
and the next one does NOT, since it is not the first holder on the queue,
the go_instantiate op was not called. Eventually the GL_SKIP holder may
call the instantiate sub-function (e.g. gfs2_rgrp_bh_get) but there was
still a window of time in which another non-GL_SKIP holder assumes the
instantiate function had been called by the first holder. In the case of
rgrp glocks, this led to a NULL pointer dereference on the buffer_heads.
This patch tries to fix the problem by introducing two new glock flags:
GLF_INSTANTIATE_NEEDED, which keeps track of when the instantiate function
needs to be called to "fill in" or "read in" the object before it is
referenced.
GLF_INSTANTIATE_IN_PROG which is used to determine when a process is
in the process of reading in the object. Whenever a function needs to
reference the object, it checks the GLF_INSTANTIATE_NEEDED flag, and if
set, it sets GLF_INSTANTIATE_IN_PROG and calls the glops "go_instantiate"
function.
As before, the gl_lockref spin_lock is unlocked during the IO operation,
which may take a relatively long amount of time to complete. While
unlocked, if another process determines go_instantiate is still needed,
it sees GLF_INSTANTIATE_IN_PROG is set, and waits for the go_instantiate
glop operation to be completed. Once GLF_INSTANTIATE_IN_PROG is cleared,
it needs to check GLF_INSTANTIATE_NEEDED again because the other process's
go_instantiate operation may not have been successful.
Functions that previously called the instantiate sub-functions now call
directly into gfs2_instantiate so the new bits are managed properly.

This patch introduces a new HIF_MAY_DEMOTE flag and infrastructure that
will allow glocks to be demoted automatically on locking conflicts.
When a locking request comes in that isn't compatible with the locking
state of an active holder and that holder has the HIF_MAY_DEMOTE flag
set, the holder will be demoted before the incoming locking request is
granted.
Note that this mechanism demotes active holders (with the HIF_HOLDER
flag set), while before we were only demoting glocks without any active
holders. This allows processes to keep hold of locks that may form a
cyclic locking dependency; the core glock logic will then break those
dependencies in case a conflicting locking request occurs. We'll use
this to avoid giving up the inode glock proactively before faulting in
pages.
Processes that allow a glock holder to be taken away indicate this by
calling gfs2_holder_allow_demote(), which sets the HIF_MAY_DEMOTE flag.
Later, they call gfs2_holder_disallow_demote() to clear the flag again,
and then they check if their holder is still queued: if it is, they are
still holding the glock; if it isn't, they can re-acquire the glock (or
abort).

Because s_vfs_rename_mutex is not cluster-wide, multiple nodes can
reverse the roles of which directories are "old" and which are "new" for
the purposes of rename. This can cause deadlocks where two nodes end up
waiting for each other.
There can be several layers of directory dependencies across many nodes.
This patch fixes the problem by acquiring all gfs2_rename's inode glocks
asychronously and waiting for all glocks to be acquired. That way all
inodes are locked regardless of the order.
The timeout value for multiple asynchronous glocks is calculated to be
the total of the individual wait times for each glock times two.
Since gfs2_exchange is very similar to gfs2_rename, both functions are
patched in the same way.
A new async glock wait queue, sd_async_glock_wait, keeps a list of
waiters for these events. If gfs2's holder_wake function detects an
async holder, it wakes up any waiters for the event. The waiter only
tests whether any of its requests are still pending.
Since the glocks are sent to dlm asychronously, the wait function needs
to check to see which glocks, if any, were granted.
If a glock is granted by dlm (and therefore held), its minimum hold time
is checked and adjusted as necessary, as other glock grants do.
If the event times out, all glocks held thus far must be dequeued to
resolve any existing deadlocks. Then, if there are any outstanding
locking requests, we need to loop around and wait for dlm to respond to
those requests too. After we release all requests, we return -ESTALE to
the caller (vfs rename) which loops around and retries the request.
Node1 Node2
--------- ---------
1. Enqueue A Enqueue B
2. Enqueue B Enqueue A
3. A granted
6. B granted
7. Wait for B
8. Wait for A
9. A times out (since Node 1 holds A)
10. Dequeue B (since it was granted)
11. Wait for all requests from DLM
12. B Granted (since Node2 released it in step 10)
13. Rename
14. Dequeue A
15. DLM Grants A
16. Dequeue A (due to the timeout and since we
no longer have B held for our task).
17. Dequeue B
18. Return -ESTALE to vfs
19. VFS retries the operation, goto step 1.
This release-all-locks / acquire-all-locks may slow rename / exchange
down as both nodes struggle in the same way and do the same thing.
However, this will only happen when there is contention for the same
inodes, which ought to be rare.

gfs2_evict_inode is called to free inodes under memory pressure. The
function calls into DLM when an inode's last cluster-wide reference goes
away (remote unlink) and to release the glock and associated DLM lock
before finally destroying the inode. However, if DLM is blocked on
memory to become available, calling into DLM again will deadlock.
Avoid that by decoupling releasing glocks from destroying inodes in that
case: with gfs2_glock_queue_put, glocks will be dequeued asynchronously
in work queue context, when the associated inodes have likely already
been destroyed.
With this change, inodes can end up being unlinked, remote-unlink can be
triggered, and then the inode can be reallocated before all
remote-unlink callbacks are processed. To detect that, revalidate the
link count in gfs2_evict_inode to make sure we're not deleting an

gfs2_evict_inode instead to get rid of the flushing.
In addition, flush the work queues of existing glocks before reusing

Currently glocks have an atomic reference count and also a spinlock
which covers various internal fields, such as the state. This intent of
this patch is to replace the spinlock and the atomic reference count
with a lockref structure. This contains a spinlock which we can continue
to use as before, and a reference counter which is used in conjuction
with the spinlock to replace the previous atomic counter.
As a result of this there are some new rules for reference counting on
glocks. We need to distinguish between reference count changes under
gl_spin (which are now just increment or decrement of the new counter,
provided the count cannot hit zero) and those which are outside of
gl_spin, but which now take gl_spin internally.
The conversion is relatively straight forward. There is probably some
further clean up which can be done, but the priority at this stage is to
make the change in as simple a manner as possible.
A consequence of this change is that the reference count is being
decoupled from the lru list processing. This should allow future
adoption of the lru_list code with glocks in due course.
The reason for using the "dead" state and not just relying on 0 being
the "invalid state" is so that in due course 0 ref counts can be
allowable. The intent is to eventually be able to remove the ref count
changes which are currently hidden away in state_change().

The original method for creating inodes used in GFS2 was to fill
out a buffer, with all the information, and then to read that
buffer into the in-core inode, using gfs2_refresh_inode()
The problem with this approach is that all the inode's fields
need to be calculated ahead of time, and were stored in various
variables making the code rather complicated.
The new approach is simply to allocate the in-core inode earlier
and fill in as many fields as possible ahead of time. These can
then be used to initilise the on disk representation. The
code has been working towards the point where it is possible
to remove gfs2_refresh_inode() because all the fields are
correctly initialised ahead of time. We've now reached that
milestone, and have reversed the order of setting up the in
core and on disk inodes.

This should lead to much better I/O patterns under low memory
conditions.

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).

There are a number of duplicated #defines in glock.h
plus one which is unused. This removes the extra
definitions.
