2008-01-24Kobject: convert fs/* from kobject_unregister() to kobject_put()Greg Kroah-Hartman
There is no need for kobject_unregister() anymore, thanks to Kay's kobject cleanup changes, so replace all instances of it with kobject_put(). Cc: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2008-01-24Kobject: change GFS2 to use kobject_init_and_addGreg Kroah-Hartman

2008-01-24kobject: convert kernel_kset to be a kobjectGreg Kroah-Hartman
kernel_kset does not need to be a kset, but a much simpler kobject now that we have kobj_attributes. We also rename kernel_kset to kernel_kobj to catch all users of this symbol with a build error instead of an easy-to-ignore build warning.

2008-01-24kset: convert kernel_subsys to use kset_createGreg Kroah-Hartman

2008-01-24kobject: remove struct kobj_type from struct ksetGreg Kroah-Hartman
We don't need a "default" ktype for a kset. We should set this explicitly every time for each kset. This change is needed so that we can make ksets dynamic, and cleans up one of the odd, undocumented assumption that the kset/kobject/ktype model has.

The task_struct->pid member is going to be deprecated, so start using the helpers (task_pid_nr/task_pid_vnr/task_pid_nr_ns) in the kernel. The first thing to start with is the pid, printed to dmesg - in this case we may safely use task_pid_nr(). Besides, printks produce more (much more) than a half of all the explicit pid usage.

2007-10-10[DLM] block dlm_recv in recovery transitionDavid Teigland
Introduce a per-lockspace rwsem that's held in read mode by dlm_recv threads while working in the dlm. This allows dlm_recv activity to be suspended when the lockspace transitions to, from and between recovery cycles. The specific bug prompting this change is one where an in-progress recovery cycle is aborted by a new recovery cycle. While dlm_recv was processing a recovery message, the recovery cycle was aborted and dlm_recoverd began cleaning up. dlm_recv decremented recover_locks_count on an rsb after dlm_recoverd had reset it to zero. This is fixed by suspending dlm_recv (taking write lock on the rwsem) before aborting the current recovery. The transitions to/from normal and recovery modes are simplified by using this new ability to block dlm_recv. The switch from normal to recovery mode means dlm_recv goes from processing locking messages, to saving them for later, and vice versa. Races are avoided by blocking dlm_recv when setting the flag that switches between modes. Signed-off-by: David Teigland <teigland@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

2007-08-14[DLM] fix basts for granted PR waiting CWDavid Teigland
Fix a long standing bug where a blocking callback would be missed when there's a granted lock in PR mode and waiting locks in both PR and CW modes (and the PR lock was added to the waiting queue before the CW lock). The logic simply compared the numerical values of the modes to determine if a blocking callback was required, but in the one case of PR and CW, the lower valued CW mode blocks the higher valued PR mode. We just need to add a special check for this PR/CW case in the tests that decide when a blocking callback is needed.

2007-07-10[PATCH] configfs+dlm: Rename config_group_find_obj and state semantics clearlySatyam Sharma
Configfs being based upon sysfs code, config_group_find_obj() is probably so named because of the similar kset_find_obj() in sysfs. However, "kobject"s in sysfs become "config_item"s in configfs, so let's call it config_group_find_item() instead, for sake of uniformity, and make corresponding change in the users of this function. BTW a crucial difference between kset_find_obj and config_group_find_item is in locking expectations. kset_find_obj does its locking by itself, but config_group_find_item expects the *caller* to do the locking. The reason for this: kset's have their own locks, config_group's don't but instead rely on the subsystem mutex. And, subsystem needn't necessarily be around when config_group_find_item() is called. So let's state these locking semantics explicitly, and rectify the comment, otherwise bugs could continue to occur in future, as they did in the past (refer commit d82b8191e238 in gfs2-2.6-fixes.git).

This "transaction id" will be used later to associate locks with each other during deadlock detection. - Add a "timeout" value for each lock. This is used along with the DLM_LKF_TIMEOUT flag.

2007-05-02remove "struct subsystem" as it is no longer neededGreg Kroah-Hartman
We need to work on cleaning up the relationship between kobjects, ksets and ktypes. The removal of 'struct subsystem' is the first step of this, especially as it is not really needed at all. Thanks to Kay for fixing the bugs in this patch. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
