2014-09-15 Thread Steven Whitehouse
Hi, Here are a number of small fixes for GFS2. There is a fix for FIEMAP on large sparse files, a negative dentry hashing fix, a fix for flock, and a bug fix relating to d_splice_alias usage. There are also (patches 1 and 5) a couple of updates which are less critical, but small and low risk.

Hi, Out of these fives patches, the one for ensuring that the number of revokes is not exceeded, and the one for checking the glock is not already held in gfs2_getxattr are the two most important. The latter can be triggered by selinux. The other three patches are very small and fix mostly

There are four patches this time. The first fixes a problem where the wrong descriptor type was being written into the log for journaled data blocks. The second fixes a race relating to the deallocation of allocator data. The third provides a fallback if kmalloc is unable to satisfy a request to

This time there are just four fixes. There are a couple of minor updates to the quota code, a fix for KConfig to ensure that only valid combinations including GFS2 can be built, and a fix for a typo affecting end i/o processing when writing the journal. Also, there is a temporary fix for a

Hi, Here are a number of GFS2 bug fixes. There are three from Andy Price which fix various issues spotted by automated code analysis. There are two from Lukas Czerner fixing my mistaken assumptions as to how FITRIM should work. Finally Ben Marzinski has fixed a bug relating to mmap and atime and

Hi, Here are three GFS2 fixes for the current kernel tree. These are all related to the block reservation code which was added at the merge window. That code will be getting an update at the forthcoming merge window too. In the mean time though there are a few smaller issues which should be

Hi, The following three fixes should help ensure that 3.0 is the best release yet, GFS2-wise at least. I've had the first two queued for some time waiting for the final one of this set. All three are relatively short, although the third is a bit longer than the others, mainly due to the extra

Hi, These are three important, but relatively small, bug fixes for GFS2. The first prevents a kernel BUG triggering in a relatively unlikely (but possible) scenario when a log flush caused by glock demotion races with a log flush from some other initiator (e.g. fsync). The second and third

Hi, Here are a couple of patches which between them fix a problem where occasionally it was possible for the GFS2 module to be unloaded before all the glocks were deallocated, which, needless to say, made the slab allocator unhappy, Steve.

Hi, Here is the current content of the GFS2 -fixes git tree. Nothing very exciting this time... some fixes for issues we've had relating to flushing glocks/memory usage, plus a couple of other fixes relating to statfs and the timely removal of inodes which have been unlinked on a remote node,
