This email is also sent to cluster-devel at redhat.com. Since this issue is about both dlm and ocfs2, I send the email here to look for help from upstream. This is an already known issue. on ocfs2 with user space cluster stack, run the test script from http://people.redhat.com/~teigland/make_panic on the mounted ocfs2 volume from 2 nodes simultaneously, the access to ocfs2 volume on both nodes

Hi: In our frontend we are attempting to build a lock mechanism without using system apis like pthreads and whatnot for internal reasons. In order to achieve this we are now creating a int32 type GV, and then use atomic load/store and comparisons. The generated IR looks like the following: ``` @Flag = private global i32 0, align 4 %0 = load atomic i32, i32* @Flag acquire, align 4 %1 = icmp eq

David, So here are the two patches. Remove all patches that you have and apply these. The first one is straight forward. The second one will hopefully fix the livelock issue you have been encountering. People reviewing the patches should note that the second one is slightly different than the one I posted earlier. It removes the BUG_ON in the if condition where we jump to update_holders. The

The following series of patches comprises the bulk of our outstanding changes for Ocfs2. Aside from the usual set of cleanups and fixes that were inappropriate for 2.6.25, there are a few highlights: The '/sys/o2cb' directory has been moved to '/sys/fs/o2cb'. The new location meshes better with modern sysfs layout. A symbolic link has been placed in the old location so as to

I'm running a bit late with the e-mail this time around, but I think that's ok since there really isn't any major new features here - the bulk of the Ocfs2 update is bug fixes, or cleanups. The same goes for configfs. The only two things that could be described as features would be: - Sunil has updated Ocfs2 to provide even more live cluster locking information via debugfs. - Joel

Please review the list of patches being applied to the ocfs2 1.4 tree. All patches list the mainline commit hash. Thanks Sunil

Hi, This is the second batch of Ocfs2 patches intended for the merge window. The 1st batch were sent out previously: http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/12/19/280 The bulk of this set is comprised of Jan Kara's patches to add quota support to Ocfs2. Many of the quota patches are to generic code, which I carried to make merging of the Ocfs2 support easier. All of the non-ocfs2 patches should have
