We must not call GFP_KERNEL memory allocations while we
are holding the log lock (read or write) since that may
trigger a log flush resulting in a deadlock.
Eventually we need to fix the locking in log.c, for now
this solves the problem at the expense of freeing up memory
as fast as we would like to. This needs to be revisited
later on.

This adds a generation number for the eventual use of NFS to the
ondisk inode. Its backward compatible with the current code since
it doesn't really matter what the generation number is to start with,
and indeed since its set to zero, due to it being taken from padding
in both the inode and rgrp header, it should be fine.
The eventual plan is to use this rather than no_formal_ino in the
NFS filehandles. At that point no_formal_ino will be unused.
At the same time we also add a releasepages call back to the
"normal" address space for gfs2 inodes. Also I've removed a

This patch fixes the way we have been dealing with unlinked,
but still open files. It removes all limits (other than memory
for inodes, as per every other filesystem) on numbers of these
which we can support on GFS2. It also means that (like other
fs) its the responsibility of the last process to close the file
to deallocate the storage, rather than the person who did the
unlinking. Note that with GFS2, those two events might take place
on different nodes.
Also there are a number of other changes:
o We use the Linux inode subsystem as it was intended to be
used, wrt allocating GFS2 inodes
o The Linux inode cache is now the point which we use for
local enforcement of only holding one copy of the inode in
core at once (previous to this we used the glock layer).
o We no longer use the unlinked "special" file. We just ignore it
completely. This makes unlinking more efficient.
o We now use the 4th block allocation state. The previously unused
state is used to track unlinked but still open inodes.
o gfs2_inoded is no longer needed
o Several fields are now no longer needed (and removed) from the in
core struct gfs2_inode
o Several fields are no longer needed (and removed) from the in core
superblock
There are a number of future possible optimisations and clean ups
which have been made possible by this patch.

The original code ordered the blocks allocated in the build_height
routine backwards causing excessive disk seeks during a read of the
metadata. This patch reverses the order to try and reduce disk seeks.
Example: A five level metadata tree, I = Inode, P = Pointers, D = Data
You need to read the blocks in the order:
I P5 P4 P3 P2 P1 D
in order to read a single data block. The new code now orders the blocks
in this way. The old code used to order them as:
I P1 P2 P3 P4 P5 D
requiring two extra seeks on average. Note that for files which are
grown by gradual extension rather than by truncate or by llseek/write
at a large offset, this doesn't apply. In the case of writing to a
file linearly, this routine will only be called upon to extend the
height of the tree by one block at a time, so the ordering is
determined by when its called rather than by the internals of the
routine itself. Optimising that part of the ordering is a much
harder problem.

This adds readpages support (and also corrects a small bug in

In order to simplify the setting of BH_Boundary, it currently gets
set when we hit the end of a indirect pointer block. There is
always a boundary at this point with the current allocation code.

Despite my earlier careful search, there was a recursive lock left
in the deallocation code. This removes it. It also should speed up
deallocation be reducing the number of locking operations which take
place by using two "try lock" operations on the two locks involved in
inode deallocation which allows us to grab the locks out of order
(compared with NFS which grabs the inode lock first and the iopen
lock later). It is ok for us to fail while doing this since if it
does fail it means that someone else is still using the inode and
thus it wouldn't be possible to deallocate anyway.

This is one of the changes related to journal recovery I mentioned a
couple weeks ago. We can get into a situation where there are only
readonly nodes currently mounting the fs, but there are journals that need
to be recovered. Since the readonly nodes can't recover journals, the
next rw mounter needs to go through and check all journals and recover any
that are dirty (i.e. what the first node to mount the fs does). This rw
mounter needs to skip the journals held by the existing readonly nodes.
Skipping those journals amounts to using the TRY flag on the journal locks
so acquiring the lock of a journal held by a readonly node will fail
instead of blocking indefinately.

A small update to the journaling code to change the way that
the "extra" blocks are accounted for in the journal. These are
used at a rate of one per 503 metadata blocks or one per 251
journaled data blocks (or just one if the total number of journaled
blocks in the transaction is smaller). Since we are using them at
two different rates the old method of accounting for them no longer
works and we count them up as required.
Since the "per transaction" accounting can't handle this (there is no
fixed number of header blocks per transaction) we have to account for
it in the general journal code. We now require that each transaction
reserves more blocks than it actually needs to take account of the
possible extra blocks.

3. Stuffed files will be failed back to normal buffered I/O
4. All the usual corner cases (write beyond current end of file,

3) convert to/from normal files whenever you want to (the zero length
restriction is gone)
In addition the level at which GFS' locking is done has changed for all
files (since they all now use the page cache) such that the locking is
done at the page cache level rather than the level of the fs operations.
This should mean that things like loopback mounts and other things which
touch the page cache directly should now work.
Current known issues:
1. There is a lock mode inversion problem related to the resource
group hold function which needs to be resolved.
2. Any significant amount of I/O causes an oops with an offset of hex 320
(NULL pointer dereference) which appears to be related to a journaled data
buffer appearing on a list where it shouldn't be.
3. Direct I/O writes are disabled for the time being (will reappear later)
4. There is probably a deadlock between the page lock and GFS' locks under
certain combinations of mmap and fs operation I/O.
5. Issue relating to ref counting on internally used inodes causes a hang
on umount (discovered before this patch, and not fixed by it)
6. One part of the directory metadata is different from GFS1 and will need
to be resolved before next release.

Update the function in GFS2 which deals with truncation of
partial blocks. Some of the code is "borrowed" from ext3
since it appears to give a good model of how to do this
operation. The function is renamed gfs2_block_truncate_page
accordingly.

Add the new external read function. Its temporarily in jdata.c
even though the protoype is in ops_file.h - this will change
shortly. The current implementation will change to a page cache
one when that happens.
In order to effect the above changes, the various internal inodes
now have Linux inodes attached to them. We keep the references to
the Linux inodes, rather than the gfs2_inodes in the super block.
In order to get everything to work correctly I've had to reorder
the init sequence on mount (which I should probably have done
earlier when .gfs2_admin was made visible).

Copy & rename various jdata functions into dir.c. The plan
being that directory metadata format will not change although
the journalled data format for "normal" files will change.

The code in this file is no longer used as the rindex file is
now accessible to userspace, so can be read/written directly.

For some reason a function pointer was being passed through
the truncate code which only ever took one value. This removes
the function pointer and replaces it with a single call to
the function in question.

Since we'll need to pin data if we are going to journal it, then
I'm renaming this function to make it less confusing. It might also
be worth moving it into lops.c since there are no users outside that
file.

I'd like to be rid of these memory allocations entirely so far as is
possible. For the moment though, mark them GFP_NOFS to make them less
harmful.

Removing the gfs2_databuf structure and using gfs2_bufdata instead
is a step towards allowing journaling of data without requiring the
metadata header on each journaled block. The idea is to merge the
code paths for ordered data with that of journaled data, with the
log operations in lops.c tacking account of the different types of
buffers as they are presented to it. Largely the code path for
metadata will be similar too, but obviously through a different set
of log operations.

Passes the flag through to ensure that the correct log operations are
invoked when the flag is set.

This adds an extra argument to gfs2_trans_add_bh() to indicate whether the
bh being added to the transaction is metadata or data. Its currently unused
since all existing callers set it to 1 (metadata) but following patches will
make use of it.

We no longer allocate a dinode on the stack in init_dinode()
and we no longer use gfs2_dinode_out (eliminating one copy) and
gfs2_meta_header_in (eliminating another copy). The meta_header_in
fucntion is now no longer referenced from outside gfs2_ondisk.c, so
make it static.
