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.
