[Cluster-devel] [GFS2 PATCH] gfs2: When gfs2_dirty_inode gets a glock error, dump the glock

[Bob Peterson]

Hi,

Before this patch, if function gfs2_dirty_inode got an error when
trying to lock the inode glock, it complained, but it didn't say
what glock or inode had the problem.

In this case, it almost always means that dinode_in found an error
with the dinode in the file system. So it makes sense to dump the
glock, which tells us the location of the dinode in the file system.
That will allow us to analyze the corruption from the metadata.
