The bast mode that appears in the debugfs output should be
useful on both master and process nodes. lkb_highbast is
currently printed, and is only useful on the master node.
lkb_bastmode is only useful on the process node. This
patch sets lkb_bastmode on the master node as well, and
uses that value in the debugfs print.

When the lock master processes a successful operation (request,
convert, cancel, or unlock), it will process the effects of the
change before sending the reply for the operation. The "effects"
of the operation are:
- blocking callbacks (basts) for any newly granted locks
- waiting or converting locks that can now be granted
The cast is queued on the local node when the reply from the lock
master is received. This means that a lock holder can receive a
bast for a lock mode that is doesn't yet know has been granted.

When both blocking and completion callbacks are queued for lock,
the dlm would always deliver the completion callback (cast) first.
In some cases the blocking callback (bast) is queued before the
cast, though, and should be delivered first. This patch keeps
track of the order in which they were queued and delivers them
in that order.
This patch also keeps track of the granted mode in the last cast
and eliminates the following bast if the bast mode is compatible
with the preceding cast mode. This happens when a remotely mastered
lock is demoted, e.g. EX->NL, in which case the local node queues
a cast immediately after sending the demote message. In this way
a cast can be queued for a mode, e.g. NL, that makes an in-transit
bast extraneous.

Replace all GFP_KERNEL and ls_allocation with GFP_NOFS.
ls_allocation would be GFP_KERNEL for userland lockspaces
and GFP_NOFS for file system lockspaces.
It was discovered that any lockspaces on the system can
affect all others by triggering memory reclaim in the
file system which could in turn call back into the dlm
to acquire locks, deadlocking dlm threads that were
shared by all lockspaces, like dlm_recv.

The lkb bastmode value is set in the context of processing the
lock, and read by the dlm_astd thread. Because it's accessed
in these two separate contexts, the writing/reading ought to
be done under a lock. This is simple to do by setting it and
reading it when the lkb is added to and removed from dlm_astd's
callback list which is properly locked.

The fix in commit 3650925893 was addressing
the case of a granted PR lock with waiting PR and CW locks. It's a
special case that requires forcing a CW bast. However, that forced CW
bast was incorrectly applying to a second condition where the granted
lock was CW. So, the holder of a CW lock could receive an extraneous CW
bast instead of a PR bast. This fix narrows the original special case to
what was intended.

To prevent the master of an rsb from changing rapidly, an unused rsb is kept
on the "toss list" for a period of time to be reused. The toss list was
being cleared completely for each recovery, which is unnecessary. Much of
the benefit of the toss list can be maintained if nodes keep rsb's in their
toss list that they are the master of. These rsb's need to be included
when the resource directory is rebuilt during recovery.

There was some hit and miss validation of messages that has now been
cleaned up and unified. Before processing a message, the new
validate_message() function checks that the lkb is the appropriate type,
process-copy or master-copy, and that the message is from the correct
nodeid for the the given lkb. Other checks and assertions on the
lkb type and nodeid have been removed. The assertions were particularly
bad since they would panic the machine instead of just ignoring the bad
message.
Although other recent patches have made processing old message unlikely,
it still may be possible for an old message to be processed and caught
by these checks.

Messages from nodes that are no longer members of the lockspace should be

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.

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.

- Increase the size of the flags passed in a lock request so all possible

- Add an opaque "xid" value for each lock. This "transaction id" will be

- Add a "timeout" value for each lock. This is used along with the

There are flags to enable two specialized features in the dlm:
1. CONVDEADLK causes the dlm to resolve conversion deadlocks internally by
changing the granted mode of locks to NL.
2. ALTPR/ALTCW cause the dlm to change the requested mode of locks to PR
or CW to grant them if the normal requested mode can't be granted.
GFS direct i/o exercises both of these features, especially when mixed
with buffered i/o. The dlm has problems with them.
The first problem is on the master node. If it demotes a lock as a part of
converting it, the actual step of converting the lock isn't being done
after the demotion, the lock is just left sitting on the granted queue
with a granted mode of NL. I think the mistaken assumption was that the
call to grant_pending_locks() would grant it, but that function naturally
doesn't look at locks on the granted queue.
The second problem is on the process node. If the master either demotes
or gives an altmode, the munging of the gr/rq modes is never done in the
process copy of the lock, leaving the master/process copies out of sync.

A lock id is a uint32 and is used as an opaque reference to the lock. For
userland apps, the lkid is passed up, through libdlm, as the return value
from a write() on the dlm device. This created a problem when the high
bit was 1, making the lkid look like an error. This is fixed by changing
how the lkid is composed. The low 16 bits identified the hash bucket for
the lock and the high 16 bits were a per-bucket counter (which eventually
hit 0x8000 causing the problem). These are simply swapped around; the
number of hash table buckets is far below 0x8000, making all lkid's
positive when viewed as signed.
