Subject: [PATCH v6 10/19] gfs2: Introduce flag for glock holder auto-demotion
From: Bob Peterson <rpeterso@...hat.com>
This patch introduces a new HIF_MAY_DEMOTE flag and infrastructure that
will allow glocks to be demoted automatically on locking conflicts.
When a locking request comes in that isn't compatible with the locking
state of a holder and that holder has the HIF_MAY_DEMOTE flag set, the
holder will be demoted automatically before the incoming locking request
is granted.
Processes that allow a glock holder to be taken away indicate this by
calling gfs2_holder_allow_demote(). When they need the glock again,
they call gfs2_holder_disallow_demote() and then they check if the
holder is still queued: if it is, they're still holding the glock; if it
isn't, they need to re-acquire the glock.
This allows processes to hang on to locks that could become part of a
cyclic locking dependency. The locks will be given up when a (rare)
conflicting locking request occurs, and don't need to be given up
prematurely.
