[Cluster-devel] [PATCH v4] Add flags option to get xattr method paired to __vfs_getxattr

2019-08-15 Thread Mark Salyzyn
Add a flag option to get xattr method that could have a bit flag of XATTR_NOSECURITY passed to it. XATTR_NOSECURITY is generally then set in the __vfs_getxattr path. This handles the case of a union filesystem driver that is being requested by the security layer to report back the xattr data.

[Cluster-devel] [GFS2 PATCH 0/2] gfs2: gfs2_rename lock ordering

2019-08-15 Thread Bob Peterson
These two patches fix a gfs2 deadlock with gfs2_rename. Comments for vfs function vfs_rename() explain situations in which AB-BA deadlocks are possible, but prevented by a mutex, s_vfs_rename_mutex. While that's all true at a single-node level, gfs2 can make processes running on two distinct

[Cluster-devel] [GFS2 PATCH 2/2] gfs2: Use async glocks for rename

2019-08-15 Thread Bob Peterson
Because s_vfs_rename_mutex is not cluster-wide, multiple nodes can reverse the roles of which directories are "old" and which are "new" for the purposes of rename. This can cause deadlocks where two nodes can lock old-then-new but since their roles are reversed, they wait for each other. This

[Cluster-devel] [GFS2 PATCH 1/2] gfs2: separate holder for rgrps in gfs2_rename

2019-08-15 Thread Bob Peterson
Before this patch, gfs2_rename added a holder for the rgrp glock to its array of holders, ghs. There's nothing wrong with that, but this patch separates it into a separate holder. This was done to ensure it's always locked last as per the proper glock lock ordering, and also to pave the way for a
