New features: lock timeouts and time warnings. If the DLM_LKF_TIMEOUT
flag is set, then the request/conversion will be canceled after waiting
the specified number of centiseconds (specified per lock). This feature
is only available for locks requested through libdlm (can be enabled for
kernel dlm users if there's a use for it.)
If the new DLM_LSFL_TIMEWARN flag is set when creating the lockspace, then
a warning message will be sent to userspace (using genetlink) after a
request/conversion has been waiting for a given number of centiseconds
(configurable per node). The time warnings will be used in the future
to do deadlock detection in userspace.

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.

Full cancel and force-unlock support. In the past, cancel and force-unlock
wouldn't work if there was another operation in progress on the lock. Now,
both cancel and unlock-force can overlap an operation on a lock, meaning there
may be 2 or 3 operations in progress on a lock in parallel. This support is
important not only because cancel and force-unlock are explicit operations
that an app can use, but both are used implicitly when a process exits while
holding locks.
Summary of changes:
- add-to and remove-from waiters functions were rewritten to handle situations
with more than one remote operation outstanding on a lock
- validate_unlock_args detects when an overlapping cancel/unlock-force
can be sent and when it needs to be delayed until a request/lookup
reply is received
- processing request/lookup replies detects when cancel/unlock-force
occured during the op, and carries out the delayed cancel/unlock-force
- manipulation of the "waiters" (remote operation) state of a lock moved under
the standard rsb mutex that protects all the other lock state
- the two recovery routines related to locks on the waiters list changed
according to the way lkb's are now locked before accessing waiters state
- waiters recovery detects when lkb's being recovered have overlapping
cancel/unlock-force, and may not recover such locks
- revert_lock (cancel) returns a value to distinguish cases where it did
nothing vs cases where it actually did a cancel; the cancel completion ast
should only be done when cancel did something
- orphaned locks put on new list so they can be found later for purging
- cancel must be called on a lock when making it an orphan
- flag user locks (ENDOFLIFE) at the end of their useful life (to the
application) so we can return an error for any further cancel/unlock-force
- we weren't setting COMP/BAST ast flags if one was already set, so we'd lose
either a completion or blocking ast
- clear an unread bast on a lock that's become unlocked

Add a "ci_" prefix to the fields in the dlm_config_info struct so that we
can use macros to add configfs functions to access them (in a later
patch). No functional changes in this patch, just naming changes.

We often abort a recovery after sending a status request to a remote node.
We want to ignore any potential status reply we get from the remote node.
If we get one of these unwanted replies, we've often moved on to the next
recovery message and incremented the message sequence counter, so the
reply will be ignored due to the seq number. In some cases, we've not
moved on to the next message so the seq number of the reply we want to
ignore is still correct, causing the reply to be accepted. The next
recovery message will then mistake this old reply as a new one.
To fix this, we add the flag RCOM_WAIT to indicate when we can accept a
new reply. We clear this flag if we abort recovery while waiting for a
reply. Before the flag is set again (to allow new replies) we know that
any old replies will be rejected due to their sequence number. We also
initialize the recovery-message sequence number to a random value when a
lockspace is first created. This makes it clear when messages are being
rejected from an old instance of a lockspace that has since been
recreated.

Requests that arrive after recovery has started are saved in the
requestqueue and processed after recovery is done. Some of these requests
are purged during recovery if they are from nodes that have been removed.
We move the purging of the requests (dlm_purge_requestqueue) to later in
the recovery sequence which allows the routine saving requests
(dlm_add_requestqueue) to avoid filtering out requests by nodeid since the
same will be done by the purge. The current code has add_requestqueue
filtering by nodeid but doesn't hold any locks when accessing the list of
current nodes. This also means that we need to call the purge routine
when the lockspace is being shut down since the add routine will not be
rejecting requests itself any more.

Now that the lockspace struct is freed when the last sysfs object is released
this patch prevents use of that lockspace by sysfs. We attempt to re-get the

This patch fixes the recounting on the lockspace kobject. Previously the lockspace was freed while userspace could have had a
reference to one of its sysfs files, causing an oops in kref_put.
Now the lockspace kfree is moved into the kobject release() function

When a new lockspace was being created, the recoverd thread was being
started for it before the lockspace was added to the global list of
lockspaces. The new thread was looking up the lockspace in the global
list and sometimes not finding it due to the race with the original thread
adding it to the list. We need to add the lockspace to the global list
before starting the thread instead of after, and if the new thread can't
find the lockspace for some reason, it should return an error.

This is the core of the distributed lock manager which is required

can be used as a standalone lock manager independantly of either
of these two projects.
