Problem:
[
        {"host":"1.2.3.4", "port":"24007", "transport":"tcp"},
        {"host":"/var/run/glusterd.socket", "transport":"unix"}
]

Consider the above case where we have two volfile servers, each
has different transport type, we first try to connect to server1
which has transport type "tcp" let's say we found that host address
is invalid, now we pick the next available server2, in our case
it is of type "unix" and try to connect to it.

but we fail to connect to it even we have right unix path, because
multiple volfile servers with different transport type is not taken
care currently.

Solution:
Every time we receive a  RPC_CLNT_DISCONNECT event in mgmt_rpc_notify,
we need to check the transport type of the volfile server in the list
and set the keys "transport.socket.connect-path" or "remote-host"
accordingly.

<title>glusterd: Bug fixes for IPv6 support</title>

<id>46bd29e0f2a7fc9278068a06d12066d614f365ec</id>

Problem:
Glusterd not working using ipv6 transport. The idea is with proper glusterd.vol configuration,
1. glusterd needs to listen on default port (240007) as IPv6 TCP listner.
2. Volume creation/deletion/mounting/add-bricks/delete-bricks/peer-probe
   needs to work using ipv6 addresses.
3. Bricks needs to listen on ipv6 addresses.
All the above functionality is needed to say that glusterd supports ipv6 transport and this is broken.

Fix:
When "option transport.address-family inet6" option is present in glusterd.vol
file, it is made sure that glusterd creates listeners using ipv6 sockets only and also the same information is saved
inside brick volume files used by glusterfsd brick process when they are starting.

Tests Run:
Regression tests using ./run-tests.sh
    IPv4: Ran manually till tests/basic/rpm.t .
    IPv6: (Need to add the above mentioned config and also add an entry for "hostname ::1" in /etc/hosts)
        Started failing at ./tests/basic/glusterd/arbiter-volume-probe.t and ran successfully till here

Unit Tests using Ipv6
    peer probe
    add-bricks
    remove-bricks
    create volume
    replace-bricks
    start volume
    stop volume
    delete volume

This patch helps libgfapi to get the volfile using Unix domain socket.
run the attachment file in the bug to test.
The patch checks if the glfs_set_volfile_server transport is of type "unix",
If It is then uses rpc_transport_unix_options_build to get the volfile.

<title>rpc: add owner xlator argument to rpc_clnt_new</title>

<content type='text'>
The @owner argument tells RPC layer the xlator that owns
the connection and to which xlator THIS needs be set during
network notifications like CONNECT and DISCONNECT.

Code paths that originate from the head of a (volume) graph and use
STACK_WIND ensure that the RPC local endpoint has the right xlator saved
in the frame of the call (callback pair). This guarantees that the
callback is executed in the right xlator context.

The client handshake process which includes fetching of brick ports from
glusterd, setting lk-version on the brick for the session, don't have
the correct xlator set in their frames. The problem lies with RPC
notifications. It doesn't have the provision to set THIS with the xlator
that is registered with the corresponding RPC programs. e.g,
RPC_CLNT_CONNECT event received by protocol/client doesn't have THIS set
to its xlator. This implies, call(-callbacks) originating from this
thread don't have the right xlator set too.

The fix would be to save the xlator registered with the RPC connection
during rpc_clnt_new. e.g, protocol/client's xlator would be saved with
the RPC connection that it 'owns'. RPC notifications such as CONNECT,
DISCONNECT, etc inherit THIS from the RPC connection's xlator.

When a .c file tests for a certain #define, and config.h was not

Storing and restoring THIS:
When the APIs exposed by libgfapi are called by other xlators like
snapview server etc. the THIS value is overwritten to contain the
THIS of libgfapi(viz libgfapi master xlator). Hence using 'THIS'
in any xlator after calling libgfapi API will lead to issues.
One such issue was uncovered in snapview and the patch
http://review.gluster.org/#/c/9469/ was sent to workaround this issue.

Hence, storing and restoring THIS, at the entry and exit of every API
exposed by libgfapi.

<title>Avoid conflict between contrib/uuid and system uuid</title>

glusterfs relies on Linux uuid implementation, which
API is incompatible with most other systems's uuid. As
a result, libglusterfs has to embed contrib/uuid,
which is the Linux implementation, on non Linux systems.
This implementation is incompatible with systtem's
built in, but the symbols have the same names.

Usually this is not a problem because when we link
with -lglusterfs, libc's symbols are trumped. However
there is a problem when a program not linked with
-lglusterfs will dlopen() glusterfs component. In
such a case, libc's uuid implementation is already
loaded in the calling program, and it will be used
instead of libglusterfs's implementation, causing
crashes.

A possible workaround is to use pre-load libglusterfs
in the calling program (using LD_PRELOAD on NetBSD for
instance), but such a mechanism is not portable, nor
is it flexible. A much better approach is to rename
libglusterfs's uuid_* functions to gf_uuid_* to avoid
any possible conflict. This is what this change attempts.
