gfapi: add glfs_free() to glfs.h

2016-10-21T12:32:14+00:00

Commit 4721188a154acd9a0a4c096d8d73e97f3bf1b2a9 introduces glfs_free()
but missed adding the function to the header. The symbol is correctly
available in the library though. Testcases do not seem to fail when a
function is missing for the headers...

The glusterfs-3.7.16 packages have been released with the missing
declaration in the header and symbol-maps. Still, the function is
available for applications:

    $ objdump -T usr/lib64/libgfapi.so.0 | grep -w glfs_free
    0000000000006aa0 g    DF .text	0000000000000035  GFAPI_3.7.16 glfs_free

gfapi: redesign the public interface for upcall consumers

2016-10-19T19:18:23+00:00

The glfs_callback_arg and glfs_callback_inode_arg were allocated by
gfapi, and expected to be free()'d by the application. However it is not
reasonable to expect that applications use the same memory allocator to
as the compiled libgfapi.so. For instance, it is possible that gfapi
uses glibc malloc/free, and an application like NFS-Ganesha the versions
from jemalloc. Mismatching of the malloc() and free() functions causes
segmentation faults at best.

In order to prevent problems like this in the future, the API for
applications that consume upcalls has been remodeled. Any of the
structures that gfapi allocates, should be free'd with glfs_free(). The
members of the structures can not be accessed directly anymore, each
has its own function to access now.

Correcting the naming of the functions, structures and constants is a
continuation of commit 2775dc64101ed37c8d9809bf9852dbf0746ee2b6. These
new improvements not only have correct prefixes for the functions and
structures, the naming also reflects more to the upcall framework and
does not use "callback" anymore.

experimental: add fdl (Full Data Logging) translator

2016-02-13T13:13:07+00:00

NSR needs logging that is different than our existing changelog in
several ways:

 * Full data, not just metadata

 * Pre-op, not post-op

 * High performance

 * Supports the concept of time-bounded "terms"

Others (for example EC) might need the same thing.  This patch adds such
a translator.  It also adds code to dump the resulting journals, and to replay
them using syncops, plus (very rudimentary) tests for all of the above.

libgfapi: adding 'follow' flag to glfs_h_lookupat()

2015-08-24T16:21:51+00:00

Previously glfs_h_lookupat won't follow the symlink, this patch
introduces new flag `follow` which will resolve the same. Applications
linking against the new library will need to use the new glfs_h_lookupat
API call.

In order to stay compatible with existing binaries that use the previous
glfs_h_lookupat() function, the old symbol needs to stay available.

Verification that there are two versions of glfs_h_lookupat:

  $ objdump -T /usr/lib64/libgfapi.so.0 | grep -w glfs_h_lookupat
  0000000000015070 g    DF .text  000000000000021e  GFAPI_3.7.4 glfs_h_lookupat
  0000000000015290 g    DF .text  0000000000000008 (GFAPI_3.4.2) glfs_h_lookupat

Testing with a binary (based on anonymous_fd_read_write.c from ./tests/)
that was linked against the old library:

  $ objdump -T ./lookupat | grep -w glfs_h_lookupat
  0000000000000000      DF *UND*  0000000000000000  GFAPI_3.4.2 glfs_h_lookupat

Enable debugging for 'ld.so' so that we can check that the GFAPI_3.4.2
version of the symbol gets loaded:

  $ export LD_DEBUG_OUTPUT=lookupat.ld.log LD_DEBUG=all
  $ ./lookupat
  $ grep -w glfs_h_lookupat lookupat.ld.log.2543
  2543:     symbol=glfs_h_lookupat;  lookup in file=./lookupat [0]
  2543:     symbol=glfs_h_lookupat;  lookup in file=/lib64/libgfapi.so.0 [0]
  2543:     binding file ./lookupat [0] to /lib64/libgfapi.so.0 [0]: normal symbol `glfs_h_lookupat' [GFAPI_3.4.2]

libgfapi : anonymous fd support

2015-05-06T01:05:24+00:00

Anonymous fd's are floating fd assigned to a glusterfs client
without a explicit file open. Here either it will create a new
anonymous fd or existing anonymous fd in the client stack for
requested file.The anonymous fd's are mainly used for IO's.
This patch introduces two api's glfs_h_anonymous_read and
glfs_h_anonymous_write which performs read and write respectively

The initial infrastructure for POSIX ACLs based on libacl has been added

NetBSD does not support POSIX ACLs, so using any of the functions should
return ENOTSUP.

gfapi: APIs to store and process upcall notifications received

2015-03-17T21:01:21+00:00

In case of any upcall cbk events received by the protocol/client,
gfapi will be notified which queues them up in a list ().

Applicatons are responsible to provide APIs to process & notify them in case
of any such upcall events queued.

Added a new API which will be used by Ganesha to repeatedly poll for any
such upcall event notified ().

A new test-file has been added to test the cache_invalidation upcall events.

Below link has a writeup which explains the code changes done -
