The current log space allocation logic is hard to understand or extend.
The principle it that when the log is flushed, we may or may not have a
transaction active that has space allocated in the log. To deal with
that, we set aside a magical number of blocks to be used in case we
don't have an active transaction. It isn't clear that the pool will
always be big enough. In addition, we can't return unused log space at
the end of a transaction, so the number of blocks allocated must exactly
match the number of blocks used.
Simplify this as follows:
* When transactions are allocated or merged, always reserve enough
blocks to flush the transaction (err on the safe side).
* In gfs2_log_flush, return any allocated blocks that haven't been used.
* Maintain a pool of spare blocks big enough to do one log flush, as
before.
* In gfs2_log_flush, when we have no active transaction, allocate a
suitable number of blocks. For that, use the spare pool when
called from logd, and leave the pool alone otherwise. This means
that when the log is almost full, logd will still be able to do one
more log flush, which will result in more log space becoming
available.
This will make the log space allocator code easier to work with in
the future.

This counter and the associated wait queue are only used so that

Instead, when gfs2_log_reserve fails because the filesystem has become

released. Give up and report the problem after a while. With that,

sometimes needs to update the atime as well, though. Right now, this
leads to a failed locking mode assertion in gfs2_dirty_inode.

GFS2's freeze/thaw mechanism uses a special freeze glock to control its
operation. It does this with a sync glock operation (glops.c) called
freeze_go_sync. When the freeze glock is demoted (glock's do_xmote) the
glops function causes the file system to be frozen. This is intended. However,
GFS2's mount and unmount processes also hold the freeze glock to prevent other
processes, perhaps on different cluster nodes, from mounting the frozen file
system in read-write mode.
Before this patch, there was no check in freeze_go_sync for whether a freeze
in intended or whether the glock demote was caused by a normal unmount.
So it was trying to freeze the file system it's trying to unmount, which
ends up in a deadlock.
This patch adds an additional check to freeze_go_sync so that demotes of the
freeze glock are ignored if they come from the unmount process.

Patch 541656d3a5 ("gfs2: freeze should work on read-only mounts") changed
the check for glock state in function freeze_go_sync() from "gl->gl_state
== LM_ST_SHARED" to "gl->gl_req == LM_ST_EXCLUSIVE". That's wrong and it
regressed gfs2's freeze/thaw mechanism because it caused only the freezing
node (which requests the glock in EX) to queue freeze work.
All nodes go through this go_sync code path during the freeze to drop their
SHared hold on the freeze glock, allowing the freezing node to acquire it
in EXclusive mode. But all the nodes must freeze access to the file system
locally, so they ALL must queue freeze work. The freeze_work calls
freeze_func, which makes a request to reacquire the freeze glock in SH,
effectively blocking until the thaw from the EX holder. Once thawed, the
freezing node drops its EX hold on the freeze glock, then the (blocked)
freeze_func reacquires the freeze glock in SH again (on all nodes, including
the freezer) so all nodes go back to a thawed state.
This patch changes the check back to gl_state == LM_ST_SHARED like it was
prior to 541656d3a5.

Patch b2a846dbef ("gfs2: Ignore journal log writes for jdata holes")
tried (unsuccessfully) to fix a case in which writes were done to jdata
blocks, the blocks are sent to the ail list, then a punch_hole or truncate
operation caused the blocks to be freed. In other words, the ail items
are for jdata holes. Before b2a846dbef, the jdata hole caused function
gfs2_block_map to return -EIO, which was eventually interpreted as an
IO error to the journal, and then withdraw.
This patch changes function gfs2_get_block_noalloc, which is only used
for jdata writes, so it returns -ENODATA rather than -EIO, and when
-ENODATA is returned to gfs2_ail1_start_one, the error is ignored.
We can safely ignore it because gfs2_ail1_start_one is only called
when the jdata pages have already been written and truncated, so the
ail1 content no longer applies.

Before this patch, gfs2_fitrim was not properly checking for a "live" file
system. If the file system had something to trim and the file system
was read-only (or spectator) it would start the trim, but when it starts
the transaction, gfs2_trans_begin returns -EROFS (read-only file system)

there's no work to do, it never called gfs2_trans_begin. That code is
bypassed so it never returns the error. Instead, it returns a good
return code with 0 work. All this makes for inconsistent behavior:
The same fstrim command can return -EROFS in one case and 0 in another.

Before this patch, function init_journal's "undo" directive jumped to label

The gfs2_glock structure has a gl_vm member, introduced in commit 7005c3e4ae
("GFS2: Use range based functions for rgrp sync/invalidation"), which stores
the location of resource groups within their address space. This structure is
in a union with iopen glock specific fields. It was introduced because at
unmount time, the resource group objects were destroyed before flushing out any
pending resource group glock work, and flushing out such work could require
flushing / truncating the address space.
Since commit b3422cacdd ("gfs2: Rework how rgrp buffer_heads are managed"),
any pending resource group glock work is flushed out before destroying the
resource group objects. So the resource group objects will now always exist in
rgrp_go_sync and rgrp_go_inval, and we now simply compute the gl_vm values
where needed instead of caching them. This also eliminates the union.

Before this patch, glock.c maintained a flag, GLF_QUEUED, which indicated
when a glock had a holder queued. It was only checked for inode glocks,
although set and cleared by all glocks, and it was only used to determine
whether the glock should be held for the minimum hold time before releasing.
The problem is that the flag is not accurate at all. If a process holds
the glock, the flag is set. When they dequeue the glock, it only cleared
the flag in cases when the state actually changed. So if the state doesn't
change, the flag may still be set, even when nothing is queued.
This happens to iopen glocks often: the get held in SH, then the file is
closed, but the glock remains in SH mode.
We don't need a special flag to indicate this: we can simply tell whether
the glock has any items queued to the holders queue. It's a waste of cpu
time to maintain it.
This patch eliminates the flag in favor of simply checking list_empty
on the glock holders.

But there was a problem when a process wrote to a jdata file, then
truncated it or punched a hole, leaving references to the blocks within
the new hole in its ail list, which are to be written to the journal log.
In writing them to the journal, after calling gfs2_block_map, function
gfs2_get_block_noalloc determined that the (hole-punched) block was not
mapped, so it returned -EIO to generic_writepages, which passed it back
to gfs2_ail1_start_one. This, in turn, performed a withdraw, assuming
there was a real IO error writing to the journal.
This might be a valid error when writing metadata to the journal, but for
journaled data writes, it does not warrant a withdraw.
This patch adds a check to function gfs2_block_map that makes an exception
for journaled data writes that correspond to jdata holes: If the iomap
get function returns a block type of IOMAP_HOLE, it instead returns
-ENODATA which does not cause the withdraw. Other errors are returned as
before.
