with a simple call to gfs2_glock_put().

gfs2: Revert "Add quota_change type"

[ Upstream commit ec4b5200c8af9ce021399d3192b3379c089396c3 ]

Commit 432928c93779 ("gfs2: Add quota_change type") makes the incorrect
assertion that function do_qc() should behave differently in the two
contexts it is used in, but that isn't actually true. In all cases,
do_qc() grabs a "reference" when it starts using a slot in the per-node
quota changes file, and it releases that "reference" when no more
residual changes remain. Revert that broken commit.

There are some remaining issues with function do_qc() which are
addressed in the next commit.

This reverts commit 432928c9377959684c748a9bc6553ed2d3c2ea4f.

gfs2: Fix "ignore unlock failures after withdraw"

[ Upstream commit 5d9231111966b6c5a65016d58dcbeab91055bc91 ]

Commit 3e11e53041502 tries to suppress dlm_lock() lock conversion errors
that occur when the lockspace has already been released.

It does that by setting and checking the SDF_SKIP_DLM_UNLOCK flag. This
conflicts with the intended meaning of the SDF_SKIP_DLM_UNLOCK flag, so
check whether the lockspace is still allocated instead.

(Given the current DLM API, checking for this kind of error after the
fact seems easier that than to make sure that the lockspace is still
allocated before calling dlm_lock(). Changing the DLM API so that users
maintain the lockspace references themselves would be an option.)

and is canceled, and we have locking requests that can now be granted
immediately

- Various fixes and cleanups in how the logd and quotad daemons are

- Fix several bugs in the quota data reference counting and shrinking.
Free quota data objects synchronously in put_super() instead of
letting call_rcu() run wild

- Make sure not to deallocate quota data during a withdraw; rather,
defer quota data deallocation to put_super(). Withdraws can happen in
contexts in which callers on the stack are holding quota data
references

- Many minor quota fixes and cleanups by Bob

gfs2: Fix withdraw race

Function gfs2_withdraw() tries to synchronize concurrent callers by
atomically setting the SDF_WITHDRAWN flag in the first caller, setting
the SDF_WITHDRAW_IN_PROG flag to indicate that a withdraw is in
progress, performing the actual withdraw, and clearing the
SDF_WITHDRAW_IN_PROG flag when done. All other callers wait for the
SDF_WITHDRAW_IN_PROG flag to be cleared before returning.

This leaves a small window in which callers can find the SDF_WITHDRAWN
flag set before the SDF_WITHDRAW_IN_PROG flag has been set, causing them
to return prematurely, before the withdraw has been completed.

Fix that by setting the SDF_WITHDRAWN and SDF_WITHDRAW_IN_PROG flags
atomically.

gfs2: Fix asynchronous thread destruction

The kernel threads are currently stopped and destroyed synchronously by
gfs2_make_fs_ro() and gfs2_put_super(), and asynchronously by
signal_our_withdraw(), with no synchronization, so the synchronous and
asynchronous contexts can race with each other.

First, when creating the kernel threads, take an extra task struct
reference so that the task struct won't go away immediately when they
terminate. This allows those kthreads to terminate immediately when
they're done rather than hanging around as zombies until they are reaped
by kthread_stop(). When kthread_stop() is called on a terminated
kthread, it will return immediately.

Second, in signal_our_withdraw(), once the SDF_JOURNAL_LIVE flag has
been cleared, wake up the logd and quotad wait queues instead of
stopping the logd and quotad kthreads. The kthreads are then expected
to terminate automatically within short time, but if they cannot, they
will not block the withdraw.

For example, if a user process and one of the kthread decide to withdraw
at the same time, only one of them will perform the actual withdraw and
the other will wait for it to be done. If the kthread ends up being the
one to wait, the withdrawing user process won't be able to stop it.

In this backtrace, gfs2_quota_sync() takes quota data references and
then calls do_sync(). Function do_sync() encounters filesystem
corruption and withdraws the filesystem, which (among other things) calls
gfs2_quota_cleanup(). Function gfs2_quota_cleanup() wrongly assumes
that nobody is holding any quota data references anymore, and destroys
all quota data objects. When gfs2_quota_sync() then resumes and
dereferences the quota data objects it is holding, those objects are no
longer there.

Function gfs2_quota_cleanup() deals with resource deallocation and can
easily be delayed until gfs2_put_super() in the case of a filesystem
withdraw. In fact, most of the other work gfs2_make_fs_ro() does is
unnecessary during a withdraw as well, so change signal_our_withdraw()
to skip gfs2_make_fs_ro() and perform the necessary steps directly
instead.

Thanks to Edward Adam Davis <eadavis@sina.com> for the initial patches.

gfs2: Add quota_change type

Function do_qc has two main uses: (1) to re-sync the local quota changes
(qd) to the master quotas, and (2) normal quota changes. In the case of
normal quota changes, the change can be positive or negative, as the
quota usage goes up and down.

Before this patch function do_qc was distinguishing one from another by
whether the resulting value is or isn't zero: In the case of a re-sync
(called do_sync) the quota value is moved from the temporary value to a
master value, so the amount is added to one and subtracted from the
other. The problem is that since the values can be positive or negative
we can occasionally run into situations where we are not doing a re-sync
but the quota change just happens to cancel out the previous value.

In the case of a re-sync extra references and locks are taken, and so
do_qc needs to release them. In the case of a normal quota change, no
extra references and locks are taken, so it must not try to release
them.

The problem is: if the quota change is not a re-sync but the value just
happens to cancel out the original quota change, the resulting zero
value fools do_qc into thinking this is a re-sync and therefore it must
release the extra references. This results in problems, mainly having to
do with slot reference numbers going smaller than zero.

This patch introduces new constants, QC_SYNC and QC_CHANGE so do_qc can
really tell the difference. For QC_SYNC calls it must release the extra
references acquired by gfs2_quota_unlock's call to qd_check_sync. For
QC_CHANGE calls it does not have extra references to put.

Note that this allows quota changes back to a value of zero, and so I
removed an assert warning related to that.

the node initiating the freeze would take the freeze glock in exclusive
mode, which would cause the freeze glock's freeze_go_sync() callback to
run on each node. There, gfs2 would freeze the filesystem and schedule
gfs2_freeze_func() to run. gfs2_freeze_func() would re-acquire the
freeze glock in shared mode, thaw the filesystem, and drop the freeze
glock again. The initiating node would keep the freeze glock held in
exclusive mode. To thaw the filesystem, the initiating node would drop
the freeze glock again, which would allow gfs2_freeze_func() to resume
on all nodes, leaving the filesystem in the thawed state.

It turns out that in freeze_go_sync(), we cannot reliably and safely
freeze the filesystem. This is primarily because the final unmount of a
filesystem takes a write lock on the s_umount rw semaphore before
calling into gfs2_put_super(), and freeze_go_sync() needs to call
freeze_super() which also takes a write lock on the same semaphore,
causing a deadlock. We could work around this by trying to take an
active reference on the super block first, which would prevent unmount
from running at the same time. But that can fail, and freeze_go_sync()
isn't actually allowed to fail.

To get around this, this patch changes the freeze glock locking scheme
as follows:

At mount time, each node takes the freeze glock in shared mode. To
freeze a filesystem, the initiating node first freezes the filesystem
locally and then drops and re-acquires the freeze glock in exclusive
mode. All other nodes notice that there is contention on the freeze
glock in their go_callback callbacks, and they schedule
gfs2_freeze_func() to run. There, they freeze the filesystem locally
and drop and re-acquire the freeze glock before re-thawing the
filesystem. This is happening outside of the glock state engine, so
there, we are allowed to fail.

From a cluster point of view, taking and immediately dropping a glock is
indistinguishable from taking the glock and only dropping it upon
contention, so this new scheme is compatible with the old one.

Thanks to Li Dong <lidong@vivo.com> for reporting a locking bug in
gfs2_freeze_func() in a previous version of this commit.
