Use helpers to obtain task pid in printks

2007-10-19T18:53:43+00:00

The task_struct->pid member is going to be deprecated, so start
using the helpers (task_pid_nr/task_pid_vnr/task_pid_nr_ns) in
the kernel.

The first thing to start with is the pid, printed to dmesg - in
this case we may safely use task_pid_nr(). Besides, printks produce
more (much more) than a half of all the explicit pid usage.

menuconfig: transform NLS and DLM menus

2007-10-17T15:43:00+00:00

Changes NLS and DLM menus into a 'menuconfig' object so that it can be
disabled at once without having to enter the menu first to disable the config
option.

Drivers: clean up direct setting of the name of a kset

2007-10-12T21:51:02+00:00

A kset should not have its name set directly, so dynamically set the
name at runtime.

This is needed to remove the static array in the kobject structure which
will be changed in a future patch.

[DLM] block dlm_recv in recovery transition

2007-10-10T07:56:38+00:00

Introduce a per-lockspace rwsem that's held in read mode by dlm_recv
threads while working in the dlm.  This allows dlm_recv activity to be
suspended when the lockspace transitions to, from and between recovery
cycles.

The specific bug prompting this change is one where an in-progress
recovery cycle is aborted by a new recovery cycle.  While dlm_recv was
processing a recovery message, the recovery cycle was aborted and
dlm_recoverd began cleaning up.  dlm_recv decremented recover_locks_count
on an rsb after dlm_recoverd had reset it to zero.  This is fixed by
suspending dlm_recv (taking write lock on the rwsem) before aborting the
current recovery.

The transitions to/from normal and recovery modes are simplified by using
this new ability to block dlm_recv.  The switch from normal to recovery
mode means dlm_recv goes from processing locking messages, to saving them
for later, and vice versa.  Races are avoided by blocking dlm_recv when
setting the flag that switches between modes.

[DLM] don't overwrite castparam if it's NULL

2007-10-10T07:56:36+00:00

If the castaddr passed to the userland API is NULL then don't overwrite the
existing castparam. This allows a different thread to cancel a lock request and
the CANCEL AST gets delivered to the original thread.

bz#306391 (for RHEL4) refers.

[DLM] Make dlm_sendd cond_resched more

2007-10-10T07:56:19+00:00

Under high recovery loads dlm_sendd can monopolise the CPU and cause soft lockups.

This one extra and one moved cond_resched() make it yield a little more during
such times keeping work moving.

[DLM] fix basts for granted PR waiting CW

2007-08-14T09:31:02+00:00

Fix a long standing bug where a blocking callback would be missed
when there's a granted lock in PR mode and waiting locks in both
PR and CW modes (and the PR lock was added to the waiting queue
before the CW lock).  The logic simply compared the numerical values
of the modes to determine if a blocking callback was required, but in
the one case of PR and CW, the lower valued CW mode blocks the higher
valued PR mode.  We just need to add a special check for this PR/CW
case in the tests that decide when a blocking callback is needed.
