The log messages relating to the progress of recovery
are minimal and very often useful.  Change these to
the KERN_INFO level so they are always available.

Keep track of whether a toss list contains any
shrinkable rsbs.  If not, dlm_scand can avoid
scanning the list for rsbs to shrink.  Unnecessary
scanning can otherwise waste a lot of time because
the toss lists can contain a large number of rsbs
that are non-shrinkable (directory records).

<title>dlm: fix lvb invalidation conditions</title>

<content type='text'>
When a node is removed that held a PW/EX lock, the
existing master node should invalidate the lvb on the
resource due to the purged lock.

Previously, the existing master node was invalidating
the lvb if it found only NL/CR locks on the resource
during recovery for the removed node.  This could lead
to cases where it invalidated the lvb and shouldn't
have, or cases where it should have invalidated and
didn't.

When recovery selects a *new* master node for a
resource, and that new master finds only NL/CR locks
on the resource after lock recovery, it should
invalidate the lvb.  This case was handled correctly
(but was incorrectly applied to the existing master
case also.)

When a process exits while holding a PW/EX lock,
the lvb on the resource should be invalidated.
This was not happening.

The lvb contents and VALNOTVALID flag should be
recovered before granting locks in recovery so that
the recovered lvb state is provided in the callback.
The lvb was being recovered after the lock was granted.

The in_recovery rw_semaphore has always been acquired and
released by different threads by design.  To work around
the "BUG: bad unlock balance detected!" messages, adjust
things so the dlm_recoverd thread always does both down_write
and up_write.

<title>dlm: fix race between remove and lookup</title>

It was possible for a remove message on an old
rsb to be sent after a lookup message on a new
rsb, where the rsbs were for the same resource
name.  This could lead to a missing directory
entry for the new rsb.

It is fixed by keeping a copy of the resource
name being removed until after the remove has
been sent.  A lookup checks if this in-progress
remove matches the name it is looking up.

Remove the dir hash table (dirtbl), and use
the rsb hash table (rsbtbl) as the resource
directory.  It has always been an unnecessary
duplication of information.

This improves efficiency by using a single rsbtbl
lookup in many cases where both rsbtbl and dirtbl
lookups were needed previously.

This eliminates the need to handle cases of rsbtbl
and dirtbl being out of sync.

In many cases there will be memory savings because
the dir hash table no longer exists.

<title>dlm: fixes for nodir mode</title>

<id>4875647a08e35f77274838d97ca8fa44158d50e2</id>
<content type='text'>
The "nodir" mode (statically assign master nodes instead
of using the resource directory) has always been highly
experimental, and never seriously used.  This commit
fixes a number of problems, making nodir much more usable.

- Major change to recovery: recover all locks and restart
  all in-progress operations after recovery.  In some
  cases it's not possible to know which in-progess locks
  to recover, so recover all.  (Most require recovery
  in nodir mode anyway since rehashing changes most
  master nodes.)

- Change the way nodir mode is enabled, from a command
  line mount arg passed through gfs2, into a sysfs
  file managed by dlm_controld, consistent with the
  other config settings.

- Allow recovering MSTCPY locks on an rsb that has not
  yet been turned into a master copy.

- Ignore RCOM_LOCK and RCOM_LOCK_REPLY recovery messages
  from a previous, aborted recovery cycle.  Base this
  on the local recovery status not being in the state
  where any nodes should be sending LOCK messages for the
  current recovery cycle.

- Hold rsb lock around dlm_purge_mstcpy_locks() because it
  may run concurrently with dlm_recover_master_copy().

- Maintain highbast on process-copy lkb's (in addition to
  the master as is usual), because the lkb can switch
  back and forth between being a master and being a
  process copy as the master node changes in recovery.

- When recovering MSTCPY locks, flag rsb's that have
  non-empty convert or waiting queues for granting
  at the end of recovery.  (Rename flag from LOCKS_PURGED
  to RECOVER_GRANT and similar for the recovery function,
  because it's not only resources with purged locks
  that need grant a grant attempt.)

- Replace a couple of unnecessary assertion panics with
  error messages.

These new callbacks notify the dlm user about lock recovery.
GFS2, and possibly others, need to be aware of when the dlm
will be doing lock recovery for a failed lockspace member.

In the past, this coordination has been done between dlm and
file system daemons in userspace, which then direct their
kernel counterparts.  These callbacks allow the same
coordination directly, and more simply.
