The following mechanisms are OSPM specific:
1. Redirect output destination to console: no file redirection will be
needed by an in-kernel debugger, there is even no file can be accessed
when the debugger is running in the kernel mode.
2. Output command prompts: programs other than acpiexec can have different
prompt characters and the prompt characters may be implemented as a
special character sequence to form a char device IO protocol.
3. Command ready/complete handshake: OSPM debugger may wait more conditions
to implement OSPM specific semantics (for example, FIFO full/empty
conditions for O_NONBLOCK or IO open/close conditions).
Leaving such OSPM specific stuffs in the ACPICA debugger core blocks
Linux debugger IO driver implementation.
Several new OSL APIs are provided by this patch:
1. acpi_os_initialize_command_signals: initialize command handshake mechanism
or any other OSPM specific stuffs.
2. acpi_os_terminate_command_signals: reversal of
acpi_os_initialize_command_signals.
3. acpi_os_wait_command_ready: putting debugger task into wait state when a
command is not ready. OSPMs can terminate command loop by returning
AE_CTRL_TERMINATE from this API. Normally, wait_event() or
wait_for_multiple_object() may be used to implement this API.
4. acpi_os_notify_command_complete: putting user task into running state when a
command has been completed. OSPMs can terminate command loop by
returning AE_CTRL_TERMINATE from this API. Normally, wake_up() or
set_event() may be used to implement this API.
This patch also converts current command signaling implementation into a
generic debugger layer (osgendbg.c) to be used by the existing OSPMs or
acpiexec, in return, Linux can have chance to implement its own command
handshake mechanism. This patch also implements acpiexec batch mode in a
multi-threading mode comaptible style as a demo (this can be confirmed by
configuring acpiexec into DEBUGGER_MULTI_THREADED mode where the batch mode
is still working). Lv Zheng.
Note that the OSPM specific command handshake mechanism is required by
Linux kernel because:
1. Linux kernel trends to use wait queue to synchronize two threads, using
mutexes to achieve that will cause false "dead lock" warnings.
2. The command handshake mechanism implemented by ACPICA is implemented in
this way because of a design issue in debugger IO streaming. Debugger IO
outputs are simply cached using a giant buffer, this should be tuned by
Linux in the future.

struct sockaddr_in addr;
addr.sin_port = 0;
addr.sin_addr.s_addr = INADDR_ANY;
addr.sin_family = 10;
socket_fd = socket(10,3,0x40000000);
connect(socket_fd , &addr,16);
AF_INET, AF_INET6 sockets actually only support 8-bit protocol
identifiers. inet_sock's skc_protocol field thus is sized accordingly,
thus larger protocol identifiers simply cut off the higher bits and
store a zero in the protocol fields.
This could lead to e.g. NULL function pointer because as a result of
the cut off inet_num is zero and we call down to inet_autobind, which
is NULL for raw sockets.

When gfs2 was unmounting filesystems or changing them to read-only it
was clearing the SDF_JOURNAL_LIVE bit before the final log flush. This
caused a race. If an inode glock got demoted in the gap between
clearing the bit and the shutdown flush, it would be unable to reserve
log space to clear out the active items list in inode_go_sync, causing an
error in inode_go_inval because the glock was still dirty.
To solve this, the SDF_JOURNAL_LIVE bit is now cleared inside the
shutdown log flush. This means that, because of the locking on the log
blocks, either inode_go_sync will be able to reserve space to clean the
glock before the shutdown flush, or the shutdown flush will clean the
glock itself, before inode_go_sync fails to reserve the space. Either
way, the glock will be clean before inode_go_inval.

gfs2 currently returns 31 bits of filename hash as a cookie that readdir
uses for an offset into the directory. When there are a large number of
directory entries, the likelihood of a collision goes up way too
quickly. GFS2 will now return cookies that are guaranteed unique for a
while, and then fail back to using 30 bits of filename hash.
Specifically, the directory leaf blocks are divided up into chunks based
on the minimum size of a gfs2 directory entry (48 bytes). Each entry's
cookie is based off the chunk where it starts, in the linked list of
leaf blocks that it hashes to (there are 131072 hash buckets). Directory
entries will have unique names until they take reach chunk 8192.
Assuming the largest filenames possible, and the least efficient spacing
possible, this new method will still be able to return unique names when
the previous method has statistically more than a 99% chance of a
collision. The non-unique names it fails back to are guaranteed to not
collide with the unique names.
unique cookies will be in this format:
- 1 bit "0" to make sure the the returned cookie is positive
- 17 bits for the hash table index
- 1 bit for the mode "0"
- 13 bits for the offset
non-unique cookies will be in this format:
- 1 bit "0" to make sure the the returned cookie is positive
- 17 bits for the hash table index
- 1 bit for the mode "1"
- 13 more bits of the name hash
Another benefit of location based cookies, is that once a directory's
exhash table is fully extended (so that multiple hash table indexs do
not use the same leaf blocks), gfs2 can skip sorting the directory
entries until it reaches the non-unique ones, and then it only needs to
sort these. This provides a significant speed up for directory reads of
very large directories.
The only issue is that for these cookies to continue to point to the
correct entry as files are added and removed from the directory, gfs2
must keep the entries at the same offset in the leaf block when they are
split (see my previous patch). This means that until all the nodes in a
cluster are running with code that will split the directory leaf blocks
this way, none of the nodes can use the new cookie code. To deal with
this, gfs2 now has the mount option loccookie, which, if set, will make
it return these new location based cookies. This option must not be set
until all nodes in the cluster are at least running this version of the
kernel code, and you have guaranteed that there are no outstanding
cookies required by other software, such as NFS.
gfs2 uses some of the extra space at the end of the gfs2_dirent
structure to store the calculated readdir cookies. This keeps us from
needing to allocate a seperate array to hold these values. gfs2
recomputes the cookie stored in de_cookie for every readdir call. The
time it takes to do so is small, and if gfs2 expected this value to be
saved on disk, the new code wouldn't work correctly on filesystems
created with an earlier version of gfs2.
One issue with adding de_cookie to the union in the gfs2_dirent
structure is that it caused the union to align itself to a 4 byte
boundary, instead of its previous 2 byte boundary. This changed the
offset of de_rahead. To solve that, I pulled de_rahead out of the union,
since it does not need to be there.

Currently, when gfs2 splits a directory leaf block, the dirents that
need to be copied to the new leaf block are packed into the start of it.
This is good for space efficiency. However, if gfs2 were to copy those
dirents into the exact same offset in the new leaf block as they had in
the old block, it would be able to generate a readdir cookie based on
the dirent location, that would be guaranteed to be unique up well past
where the current code is statistically almost guaranteed to have
collisions. So, gfs2 now keeps the dirent's offset in the block the
same when it copies it to the new leaf block.

At some point in the past, we used to have a timeout when GFS2 was
unmounting, trying to clear out its glocks. If the timeout expires,
it would dump the remaining glocks to the kernel messages so that
developers can debug the problem. That timeout was eliminated,
probably by accident. This patch reintroduces it.

Before this patch, function update_statfs called gfs2_statfs_change_out
to update the master statfs buffer without the sd_statfs_spin held.
In theory, another process could call gfs2_statfs_sync, which takes
the sd_statfs_spin lock and re-reads m_sc from the buffer. So there's
a theoretical timing window in which one process could write the
master statfs buffer, then another comes along and re-reads it, wiping
out the changes.
Signed-off-by: Bob Peterson <rpeterso@redhat.com>
This patch makes no functional changes. Its goal is to reduce the
size of the gfs2 inode in memory by rearranging structures and
changing the size of some variables within the structure.
