      [GFS2] Map multiple blocks at once where possible · 7a6bbacb
      Steven Whitehouse authored 
      This is a tidy up of the GFS2 bmap code. The main change is that the
bh is passed to gfs2_block_map allowing the flags to be set directly
rather than having to repeat that code several times in ops_address.c.

At the same time, the extent mapping code from gfs2_extent_map has
been moved into gfs2_block_map. This allows all calls to gfs2_block_map
to map extents in the case that no allocation is taking place. As a
result reads and non-allocating writes should be faster. A quick test
with postmark appears to support this.

There is a limit on the number of blocks mapped in a single bmap
call in that it will only ever map blocks which are pointed to
from a single pointer block. So in other words, it will never try
to do additional i/o in order to satisfy read-ahead. The maximum
number of blocks is thus somewhat less than 512 (the GFS2 4k block
size minus the header divided by sizeof(u64)). I've further limited
the mapping of "normal" blocks to 32 blocks (to avoid extra work)
since readpages() will currently read a maximum of 32 blocks ahead (128k).

Some further work will probably be needed to set a suitable value
for DIO as well, but for now thats left at the maximum 512 (see
ops_address.c:gfs2_get_block_direct).

There is probably a lot more that can be done to improve bmap for GFS2,
but this is a good first step.

      [GFS2] Use hlist for glock hash chains · b6397893
      Steven Whitehouse authored 
      This results in smaller list heads, so that we can have more chains
in the same amount of memory (twice as many). I've multiplied the
size of the table by four though - this is because we are saving
memory by not having one lock per chain any more. So we land up
using about the same amount of memory for the hash table as we
did before I started these changes, the difference being that we
now have four times as many hash chains.

The reason that I say "about the same amount of memory" is that the
actual amount now depends upon the NR_CPUS and some of the config
variables, so that its not exact and in some cases we do use more
memory. Eventually we might want to scale the hash table size
according to the size of physical ram as measured on module load.

      sh64: Drop deprecated ISA tuning for legacy toolchains. · ccdfc526
      Paul Mundt authored 
      The original sh64 toolchains required that we tune the ISA
level accordingly to not have head.S/entry.S blow up. With
current toolchains, this is no longer the case, and the
syntax magically changed as well, causing all current
toolchains to die a horrible death.

Incidentally, code generation in other parts of the kernel
is now significantly complex enough that none of the older
toolchains make it very far these days, so there's not
even any point in preserving legacy compatability via
as-option.

This fixes a long-standing issue, as noted here:

	http://lkml.org/lkml/2005/1/5/223

Though at the time the current toolchains were too broken
to make adjusting the tuning worthwhile.

      [GFS2] Rewrite of examine_bucket() · 24264434
      Steven Whitehouse authored 
      The existing implementation of this function in glock.c was not
very efficient as it relied upon keeping a cursor element upon the
hash chain in question and moving it along. This new version improves
upon this by using the current element as a cursor. This is possible
since we only look at the "next" element in the list after we've
taken the read_lock() subsequent to calling the examiner function.
Obviously we have to eventually drop the ref count that we are then
left with and we cannot do that while holding the read_lock, so we
do that next time we drop the lock. That means either just before
we examine another glock, or when the loop has terminated.

The new implementation has several advantages: it uses only a
read_lock() rather than a write_lock(), so it can run simnultaneously
with other code, it doesn't need a "plug" element, so that it removes
a test not only from this list iterator, but from all the other glock
list iterators too. So it makes things faster and smaller.
