GFS2: Pull request (merge window)
From: Bob Peterson
Date: Fri May 05 2017 - 16:28:40 EST
Hi Linus,
Please disregard my previous pull request and
consider pulling the following changes for the GFS2 file system.
Special note:
This time we had an unusual dependency on a patch (f9fe1c12) which
went through David Miller's net-next tree, so we have a merge commit
in our GFS2 for-next branch. After you pulled that patch, I encountered
a strange anomaly. Despite the fact that I did a git pull of master
immediately prior, my pull request somehow generated an incorrect
diffstat which showed phantom changes we did not make, for:
block/bio.c | 12 +-
block/blk-core.c | 30 ++-
block/blk-mq-tag.c | 3 +
block/blk-mq.c | 9 +-
drivers/md/dm.c | 29 +-
drivers/md/raid10.c | 3 +-
fs/fs-writeback.c | 35 ++-
I asked around, but nobody could tell me what went wrong. Strangely,
this command:
git log --oneline --right-only origin/master...FETCH_HEAD --stat
doesn't show this, but this one does:
git diff --stat --right-only origin/master...FETCH_HEAD
So I created a temporary local branch and used git merge to
generate a correct diffstat. Hopefully this pull will just work.
If there are problems, let me know how to do it better for
next time. (Next time we hopefully won't have any merge commits).
Regards,
Bob Peterson

GFS2: Allow glocks to be unlocked after withdraw (2017-05-05 14:19:28 -0500)
----------------------------------------------------------------
We've got ten GFS2 patches for this merge window (plus one merge commit).
1. Andreas Gruenbacher wrote a patch to replace the deprecated
call to rhashtable_walk_init with rhashtable_walk_enter.
2. Andreas also wrote a patch to eliminate redundant code in
two of our debugfs sequence files.
3. Andreas also cleaned up the rhashtable key ugliness Linus
pointed out during this cycle, following Linus's suggestions.
4. Andreas also wrote a patch to take advantage of his new
function rhashtable_lookup_get_insert_fast. This makes glock
lookup faster and more bullet-proof.
5. Andreas also wrote a patch to revert a patch in the evict
path that caused occasional deadlocks, and is no longer
needed.
6. Andrew Price wrote a patch to re-enable fallocate for the
rindex system file to enable gfs2_grow to grow properly on
secondary file system grow operations.
7. I wrote a patch to initialize an inode number field to make
certain kernel trace points more understandable.
8. I also wrote a patch that makes GFS2 file system "withdraw"
work more like it should by ignoring operations after a
withdraw that would formerly cause a BUG() and kernel panic.
9. I also reworked the entire truncate/delete algorithm,
scrapping the old recursive algorithm in favor of a new
non-recursive algorithm. This was done for performance:
This way, GFS2 no longer needs to lock multiple resource
groups while doing truncates and deletes of files that cross
multiple resource group boundaries, allowing for better
parallelism. It also solves a problem whereby deleting large
files would request a large chunk of kernel memory, which
resulted in a get_page_from_freelist warning.
10. Due to a regression found during testing, I added a new
patch to correct "GFS2: Prevent BUG from occurring when
normal Withdraws occur".
