      xfs: only take the ILOCK in xfs_reclaim_inode() · ad637a10
      Alex Elder authored
      
      
      At the end of xfs_reclaim_inode(), the inode is locked in order to
      we wait for a possible concurrent lookup to complete before the
      inode is freed.  This synchronization step was taking both the ILOCK
      and the IOLOCK, but the latter was causing lockdep to produce
      reports of the possibility of deadlock.
      
      It turns out that there's no need to acquire the IOLOCK at this
      point anyway.  It may have been required in some earlier version of
      the code, but there should be no need to take the IOLOCK in
      xfs_iget(), so there's no (longer) any need to get it here for
      synchronization.  Add an assertion in xfs_iget() as a reminder
      of this assumption.
      
      Dave Chinner diagnosed this on IRC, and Christoph Hellwig suggested
      no longer including the IOLOCK.  I just put together the patch.

      xfs: use a normal shrinker for the dquot freelist · 92b2e5b3
      Christoph Hellwig authored
      
      
      Stop reusing dquots from the freelist when allocating new ones directly, and
      implement a shrinker that actually follows the specifications for the
      interface.  The shrinker implementation is still highly suboptimal at this
      point, but we can gradually work on it.
      
      This also fixes an bug in the previous lock ordering, where we would take
      the hash and dqlist locks inside of the freelist lock against the normal
      lock ordering.  This is only solvable by introducing the dispose list,
      and thus not when using direct reclaim of unused dquots for new allocations.
      
      As a side-effect the quota upper bound and used to free ratio values in
      /proc/fs/xfs/xqm are set to 0 as these values don't make any sense in the
      new world order.
