<title>gfapi: 'glfs_h_creat_open' - new API to create handle and open fd</title>

<id>e3942babf00fe74dd3c3fc8502482967fbdb9ca5</id>
<content type='text'>
Right now we have two separate APIs, one
- 'glfs_h_creat_handle' to create handle &amp; another
- 'glfs_h_open' to create a glfd to return to application

Having two separate routines can result in access errors
while trying to create and write into a read-only file.

Since a fd is opened even during file/directory creation,
introducing a new API to make these two operations atomic i.e,
which can create both handle &amp; fd and pass them to application

This is backport of below mainline patch -
- https://review.gluster.org/#/c/glusterfs/+/23448/
- bz#1753569

release-6:
- https://review.gluster.org/#/c/glusterfs/+/23491/

<content type='text'>
I hit one crash issue when using the libgfapi.

In the libgfapi it will call glfs_poller() --&gt; event_dispatch()
in file api/src/glfs.c:721, and the event_dispatch() is defined
by libgluster locally, the problem is the name of event_dispatch()
is the extremly the same with the one from libevent package form
the OS.

For example, if a executable program Foo, which will also use and
link the libevent and the libgfapi at the same time, I can hit the
crash, like:

kernel: glfs_glfspoll[68486]: segfault at 1c0 ip 00007fef006fd2b8 sp
00007feeeaffce30 error 4 in libevent-2.0.so.5.1.9[7fef006ed000+46000]

The link for Foo is:
lib_foo_LADD = -levent $(GFAPI_LIBS)
It will crash.

This is because the glfs_poller() is calling the event_dispatch() from
the libevent, not the libglsuter.

The gfapi link info :
GFAPI_LIBS = -lacl -lgfapi -lglusterfs -lgfrpc -lgfxdr -luuid

If I link Foo like:
lib_foo_LADD = $(GFAPI_LIBS) -levent
It will works well without any problem.

And if Foo call one private lib, such as handler_glfs.so, and the
handler_glfs.so will link the GFAPI_LIBS directly, while the Foo won't
and it will dlopen(handler_glfs.so), then the crash will be hit everytime.

The link info will be:
foo_LADD = -levent
libhandler_glfs_LIBADD = $(GFAPI_LIBS)

I can avoid the crash temporarily by linking the GFAPI_LIBS in Foo too like:
foo_LADD = $(GFAPI_LIBS) -levent
libhandler_glfs_LIBADD = $(GFAPI_LIBS)

But this is ugly since the Foo won't use any APIs from the GFAPI_LIBS.

And in some cases when the --as-needed link option is added(on many dists
it is added as default), then the crash is back again, the above workaround
won't work.

<content type='text'>
As mentioned in bug1733166, there could be potential deadlock
while processing upcalls depending on how each xlator choose
to act on it. The right way of fixing such issues
is to change rpc callback communication process.
- https://github.com/gluster/glusterfs/issues/697

Till then, making changes in gfapi layer to avoid any I/O
processing.

There are many include statements that are not needed.
A previous more ambitious attempt failed because of *BSD plafrom
(see https://review.gluster.org/#/c/glusterfs/+/21929/ )

Now trying a more conservative reduction.
It does not solve all circular deps that we have, but it
does reduce some of them. There is just too much to handle
reasonably (dht-common.h includes dht-lock.h which includes
dht-common.h ...), but it does reduce the overall number of lines
of include we need to look at in the future to understand and fix
the mess later one.

Currently for an application using glfsapi to use glusterfs, when a
statedump is taken, it uses /var/run/gluster dir to dump info.

There can be concerns as this directory may be owned by some other
user, and hence it may fail taking statedump. Such applications
should have an option to use different path.

This patch provides an API to do so.
