This adds preliminary support for the SH-4A UBC to the hw-breakpoints API. Presently only a single channel is implemented, and the ptrace interface still needs to be converted. This is the first step to cleaning up the long-standing UBC mess, making the UBC more generally accessible, and finally making it SMP safe. An additional abstraction will be layered on top of this as with the perf events code to permit the various CPU families to wire up support for their own specific UBCs, as many variations exist.

Starting with version 4.5, GCC has a new built-in function __builtin_unreachable() that can be used in places like the kernel's BUG() where inline assembly is used to transfer control flow. This eliminated the need for an endless loop in these places. The patch adds a new macro 'unreachable()' that will expand to either __builtin_unreachable() or an endless loop depending on the compiler version.

This patch fixes some ref counting issues. Firstly by moving the point at which we drop the ref count after a dlm lock operation has completed we ensure that we never call gfs2_glock_hold() on a lock with a zero ref count. Secondly, by using atomic_dec_and_lock() in gfs2_glock_put() we ensure that at no time will a glock with zero ref count appear on the lru_list. That means that we can remove the check for this in our shrinker (which was racy). Signed-off-by:

When a gfs2 filesystem is grown, it needs to rebuild the rindex list to be able to use the new space. gfs2 does this when the rindex is marked not uptodate, which happens when the rindex glock is dropped. However, on a single node setup, there is never any reason to drop the rindex glock, so gfs2 never invalidates the the rindex. This patch makes gfs2 automatically drop the rindex glock after filesystem grows, so it can refresh the rindex list. Signed-off-by:

There are two spare field in the header common to all GFS2 metadata. One is just the right size to fit a journal id in it, and this patch updates the journal code so that each time a metadata block is modified, we tag it with the journal id of the node which is performing the modification. The reason for this is that it should make it much easier to debug issues which arise if we can tell which node was the last to modify a particular metadata block. Since the field is updated before the block is written into the journal, each journal should only contain metadata which is tagged with its own journal id. The one exception to this is the journal header block, which might have a different node's id in it, if that journal was recovered by another node in the cluster. Thus each journal will contain a record of which nodes recovered it, via the journal header. The other field in the metadata header could potentially be used to hold information about what kind of operation was performed, but for the time being we just zero it on each transaction so that if we use it for that in future, we'll know that the information (where it exists) is reliable. I did consider using the other field to hold the journal sequence number, however since in GFS2's journaling we write the modified data into the journal and not the original data, this gives no information as to what action caused the modification, so I think we can probably come up with a better use for those 64 bits in the future.

This function only had one caller left, and that caller only called it for leaf blocks, hence one branch of the "if" was never taken. In addition the call to get_left had already verified the metadata type, so the function can be reduced to a single line of code in its caller. Signed-off-by:

GFS2 now has three new mount options, statfs_quantum, quota_quantum and statfs_percent. statfs_quantum and quota_quantum simply allow you to set the tunables of the same name. Setting setting statfs_quantum to 0 will also turn on the statfs_slow tunable. statfs_percent accepts an integer between 0 and 100. Numbers between 1 and 100 will cause GFS2 to do any early sync when the local number of blocks free changes by at least statfs_percent from the totoal number of blocks free. Setting statfs_percent to 0 disables this. Signed-off-by:
