Hello, the following series of patches fixes some issues with OCFS2 quotas. The first patch modifies VFS quota locking, the next patch uses the fact to simplify OCFS2 quota locking and solves a few deadlock issues. The third and the fourth patches fix another possible deadlocks in OCFS2 quota code and the last patch is a minor cleanup. Honza

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

Hello, the following patch series implements quotas for OCFS2. The patch series is based on: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mfasheh/ocfs2.git linux-next I've adressed Joel's comments, also node recovery is now fully working and I've fixed a few issues I found during my testing. So I'm currently not aware of any bugs. Please review, test, comment. Thanks.

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

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

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
