Possible lock inversion in directory locking
Hi, I've been playing lately with lockdep annotations of OCFS2. I seem to have most of the false positives sorted out and currently I hit the report below. I've analyzed that ocfs2_extend_dir() does first lock local alloc inode in ocfs2_reserve_clusters() and then acquires ip_alloc_sem from the directory. The usual ordering e.g. in ocfs2_write_begin() is to first acquire ip_alloc_sem and then lock local alloc. Now these two paths obviously cannot deadlock against each other because one...

[PATCH 0/7] ocfs2: Directory indexing support
The following patches implement indexed directory support in Ocfs2, mostly according to the design doc I wrote up a while ago: http://oss.oracle.com/osswiki/OCFS2/DesignDocs/IndexedDirectories The patches have been rebased on top of 2.6.29-rc2. It should be trivial to put them into merge_window. Things are what I'd call complete now. I'd like to get these into the merge_window branch

[PATCH 0/7] OCFS2 locking fixes and lockdep annotations
Hi, the first four patches in this series fix locking problems in OCFS2 quota code (three of them can lead to potential deadlocks). The fifth patch reorders ip_alloc_sem for directories to be acquired before localalloc locks. Mark would you please merge these? The last two patches implement lockdep annotations for OCFS2 cluster locks. We annotate all the cluster locks except for special ones

[PATCH 0/7] [RESEND] Fix some deadlocks in quota code and implement lockdep for cluster locks
Hi, I'm resending this patch series. It's rediffed against linux-next branch of Joel's git tree. The first four patches are obvious fixes of deadlocks in quota code and should go in as soon as possible. The other three patches implement lockdep support for OCFS2 cluster locks. So you can have a look whether the code make sence to you and possibly merge them. They should be NOP when

[git patches] Ocfs2 updates for 2.6.30
Hi, The following patches comprise the bulk of Ocfs2 updates for the 2.6.30 merge window. Aside from larger, more involved fixes, we're adding the following features, which I will describe in the order their patches are mailed. Sunil's exported some more state to our debugfs files, and consolidated some other aspects of our debugfs infrastructure. This will further aid us in debugging

[PATCH 0/40] ocfs2: Detach ocfs2 metadata I/O from struct inode
The following series of patches attempts to detach metadata I/O from struct inode. They are currently tied together pretty tightly. Metadata reads happen via the ocfs2_read_blocks() functions, writes via both jbd2 and ocfs2_write_blocks(). - Each inode has a cache of associated metadata blocks stored on its ip_metadata_cache member. The ocfs2_read/write_blocks() functions take a struct
