<content type='text'>
This patch removes the ls_remove_wait waitqueue handling. The current
handling tries to wait before a lookup is send out for a identically
resource name which is going to be removed. Hereby the remove message
should be send out before the new lookup message. The reason is that
after a lookup request and response will actually use the specific
remote rsb. A followed remove message would delete the rsb on the remote
side but it's still being used.

To reach a similar behaviour we simple send the remove message out while
the rsb lookup lock is held and the rsb is removed from the toss list.
Other find_rsb() calls would never have the change to get a rsb back to
live while a remove message will be send out (without holding the lock).

This behaviour requires a non-sleepable context which should be provided
now and might be the reason why it was not implemented so in the first
place.

based on a per message basis. Currently all messages forced to be
created under GFP_NOFS context.

<title>fs: dlm: use a non-static queue for callbacks</title>

<id>61bed0baa4dba17dd06cdfe20481a580718d6c7c</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch will introducde a queue implementation for callbacks by using
the Linux lists. The current callback queue handling is implemented by a
static limit of 6 entries, see DLM_CALLBACKS_SIZE. The sequence number
inside the callback structure was used to see if the entries inside the
static entry is valid or not. We don't need any sequence numbers anymore
with a dynamic datastructure with grows and shrinks during runtime to
offer such functionality.

We assume that every callback will be delivered to the DLM user if once
queued. Therefore the callback flag DLM_CB_SKIP was dropped and the
check for skipping bast was moved before worker handling and not skip
while the callback worker executes. This will reduce unnecessary queues
of the callback worker.

All last callback saves are pointers now and don't need to copied over.
There is a reference counter for callback structures which will care
about to free the callback structures at the right time if they are not
referenced anymore.

There is no need to use a mutex in those hot path sections. We change it
to spin lock to serve callbacks more faster by not allowing schedule.
The locked sections will not be locked for a long time.

This patch adds tracepoints for send and recv cases of dlm messages and
dlm rcom messages. In case of send and dlm message we add the dlm rsb
resource name this dlm messages belongs to. This has the advantage to
follow dlm messages on a per lock basis. In case of recv message the
resource name can be extracted by follow the send message sequence
number.

The dlm message DLM_MSG_PURGE doesn't belong to a lock request and will
not set the resource name in a dlm_message trace. The same for all rcom
messages.

There is additional handling required for this debugging functionality
which is tried to be small as possible. Also the midcomms layer gets
aware of lock resource names, for now this is required to make a
connection between sequence number and lock resource names. It is for
debugging purpose only.

This patch removes the send repeat remove handling. This handling is
there to repeatingly DLM_MSG_REMOVE messages in cases the dlm stack
thinks it was not received at the first time. In cases of message drops
this functionality is necessary, but since the DLM midcomms layer
guarantees there are no messages drops between cluster nodes this
feature became not strict necessary anymore. Due message
delays/processing it could be that two send_repeat_remove() are sent out
while the other should be still on it's way. We remove the repeat remove
handling because we are sure that the message cannot be dropped due
communication errors.

This patch fixes a possible use after free if tracing for the specific
event is enabled. To avoid the use after free we introduce a out_put
label like all other user lock specific requests and safe in a boolean
to do a put or not which depends on the execution path of
dlm_user_request().

The resource name parameter should never be changed by DLM so we declare
it as const. At some point it is handled as a char pointer, a resource
name can be a non printable ascii string as well. This patch change it
to handle it as void pointer as it is offered by DLM API.

This patch adds trace callbacks for user locks. Unfortenately user locks
are handled in a different way than kernel locks in some cases. User
locks never call the dlm_lock()/dlm_unlock() kernel API and use the next
step internal API of dlm. Adding those traces from user API callers
should make it possible for dlm trace system to see lock handling for
user locks as well.
