Polling continuously for upcall events is not optimal.
Hence new APIs have been added to allow applications to
register and unregister upcall events it is interested in
along with callback function to be invoked in case of any
such upcalls sent by backend server.

@TODO: Make changes in upcall xlator so that events are
sent to only those clients which either registered callbacks
or started polling. Shall be addressed in separate patch.

Updates: #315

To be able to backport the API glfd_set_lk_owner() to

version to 3.10.7 (upcoming 3.10 release).

Also sticking to the norms of the gfapi library, changing

'make clean' does not cleanup everything, and some of the files get
cleaned too eagerly. Several files are being packaged in a 'make dist'
tarball, that get rebuild each time anyway.

Specifically, this change prevents
 - libglusterfs/src/generator.pyc from laying around
 - keeping rpc/xdr/gen/*.x symlinks
 - modifying tests/basic/{fuse,gfapi}/Makefile each run
 - including tests/env.rc and events/src/eventtypes.py in the tarball

We need a provision to be able to set lkowner (which is
used to distinguish locks maintained by server) in gfapi.
Since the same lk_owner need to be used to be able to
flush the lock while closing the fd, store the lkowner
in the glfd structure itself.

A new API has been added to be able to set lkowner in glfd.

<title>gfapi/handleops: Introducing glfs_xreaddirplus_r() fop for handleops</title>

Its known that readdirplus operation fetches stat as well for each of the
dirents. But often applications may need extra information, like for eg.,
NFS-Ganesha which operates on handles needs handles for each of those
dirents returned. So this would require extra calls to the backend, in this
case LOOKUP (which is very expensive operation) resulting in very low
readdir performance.

To address that introducing this new API using which applications can
make request for any extra information to be returned as part of
readdirplus response.

Currently this new api returns stat and handles as demanded by application.
The synopsis of the API is noted in glfs.h.

@todo:
* Enhance test script using this new API

Below were the perf results on single brick volume with and without
these changes -

Dataset used -
10*100 directories and each directory containing 100 empty files.

I used NFS-Ganesha application to test these changes -
&gt;for i in {1..5}; do systemctl restart nfs-ganesha; sleep 10; mount -t nfs -o vers=4 localhost:/brick_vol /mnt; cd /mnt; echo "ITERATION$i"; date; find . &gt; tmp-nfs.log; date; cd /; umount /mnt; sleep 2; done;

When the call to glfs_new("volname") passes a name for the volume and it
does not match the name of the subvolume in the graph, glfs_init() will
fail. This is easily reproducible by a gfapi program that loads the
volume from a .vol file, and not from a GlusterD server.

<content type='text'>
This new xlator does not allocate any resources on init(). This makes it
a good option to use for debugging xlator releated resources leaks on
fini().

By putting the sink xlator as single xlator in a .vol file, and loading
it through gfapi, we can investigate the resource leaks that are
happening through gfapi (and the Gluster core). By extending the .vol
file with additional xlators, it is possible to analyze resource leaks
of single xlators.

This new xlator does not allocate any resources on init(). This makes it
a good option to use for debugging xlator releated resources leaks on
fini().

By putting the sink xlator as single xlator in a .vol file, and loading
it through gfapi, we can investigate the resource leaks that are
happening through gfapi (and the Gluster core). By extending the .vol
file with additional xlators, it is possible to analyze resource leaks
of single xlators.

Introduce glfs_sysrq() as a generic API for triggering debug and
troubleshoot events. This interface will be used by the feature to get
statedumps for applications using libgfapi.

The current events that can be requested through this API are:
 - 'h'elp: log a mesage with all supported events
 - 's'tatedump: trigger a statedump for the passed glfs_t

In future, this API can be used by a CLI to trigger statedumps from
storage servers. At the moment it is limited to take statedumps, but it
is extensible to set the log-level, clear caches, force reconnects and
much more.
