573c24c4af dlm: always use GFP_NOFS
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.

748285ccf7 dlm: use more NOFS allocation
Change some GFP_KERNEL allocations to use either GFP_NOFS or
ls_allocation (when available) which the fs sets to GFP_NOFS.
The point is to prevent allocations from going back into the
cluster fs in places where that might lead to deadlock.

391fbdc5d5 dlm: connect to nodes earlier
Make network connections to other nodes earlier, in the context of
dlm_recoverd.  This avoids connecting to nodes from dlm_send where we
try to avoid allocations which could possibly deadlock if memory reclaim
goes into the cluster fs which may try to do a dlm operation.

d44e0fc704 dlm: recover nodes that are removed and re-added
If a node is removed from a lockspace, and then added back before the
dlm is notified of the removal, the dlm will not detect the removal
and won't clear the old state from the node.  This is fixed by using a
list of added nodes so the membership recovery can detect when a newly
added node is already in the member list.

46b43eed70 dlm: reject messages from non-members
Messages from nodes that are no longer members of the lockspace should be
ignored.  When nodes are removed from the lockspace, recovery can
sometimes complete quickly enough that messages arrive from a removed node
after recovery has completed.  When processed, these messages would often
cause an error message, and could in some cases change some state, causing
problems.

c36258b592 [DLM] block dlm_recv in recovery transition
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.

1a2bf2eefb [DLM] Fix memory leak in dlm_add_member() when dlm_node_weight() returns less than zero
There's a memory leak in fs/dlm/member.c::dlm_add_member().

If "dlm_node_weight(ls->ls_name, nodeid)" returns < 0, then
we'll return without freeing the memory allocated to the (at
that point yet unused) 'memb'.
This patch frees the allocated memory in that case and thus
avoids the leak.

8b0e7b2cf3 [DLM] wait for config check during join [6/6]
Joining the lockspace should wait for the initial round of inter-node
config checks to complete before returning.  This way, if there's a
configuration mismatch between the joining node and the existing nodes,
the join can fail and return an error to the application.

3ae1acf93a [DLM] add lock timeouts and warnings [2/6]
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.

91c0dc93a1 [DLM] fix aborted recovery during node removal
Red Hat BZ 211914

With the new cluster infrastructure, dlm recovery for a node removal can
be aborted and restarted for a node addition.  When this happens, the
restarted recovery isn't aware that it's doing recovery for the earlier
removal as well as the addition.  So, it then skips the recovery steps
only required when nodes are removed.  This can result in locks not being
purged for failed/removed nodes.  The fix is to check for removed nodes
for which recovery has not been completed at the start of a new recovery
sequence.

This is the core of the distributed lock manager which is required
to use GFS2 as a cluster filesystem. It is also used by CLVM and
can be used as a standalone lock manager independantly of either
of these two projects.

It implements VAX-style locking modes.
