The fop_wind_count can go negative when fencing is enabled
on unwind path of the IO leading to hang.

Also changed code so that fop_wind_count needs to be maintained only
till fencing is enabled on the file.

<title>features/shard: Fix crash during shards cleanup in error cases</title>

<id>663fb1c38150f2662d9f9c796ab9b0a57b7f9f97</id>
<content type='text'>
A crash is seen during a reattempt to clean up shards in background
upon remount. And this happens even on remount (which means a remount
is no workaround for the crash).

In such a situation, the in-memory base inode object will not be
existent (new process, non-existent base shard).
So local-&gt;resolver_base_inode will be NULL.

In the event of an error (in this case, of space running out), the
process would crash at the time of logging the error in the following line -

        gf_msg(this-&gt;name, GF_LOG_ERROR, local-&gt;op_errno, SHARD_MSG_FOP_FAILED,
               "failed to delete shards of %s",
               uuid_utoa(local-&gt;resolver_base_inode-&gt;gfid));

Fixed that by using local-&gt;base_gfid as the source of gfid when
local-&gt;resolver_base_inode is NULL.

Problem:
frame is accessed after stack-wind. This can lead to crash
if the cbk frees the frame.

Fix:
Use new frame for the wind instead.

Issue:

libgfchangelog.so: cannot open shared object file

Due to hardcoded shared library name runtime loader looks for particular version of
a shared library.

Solution:

Using find_library to locate shared library at runtime solves this issue.

<title>afr: support split-brain CLI for replica 3</title>

<id>50dbcd45fa3165247608e2b889d6a802ba5d6323</id>
<content type='text'>
Ever since we added quorum checks for lookups in afr via commit
bd44d59741bb8c0f5d7a62c5b1094179dd0ce8a4, the split-brain resolution
commands would not work for replica 3 because there would be no
readables for the lookup fop.

The argument was that split-brains do not occur in replica 3 but we do
see (data/metadata) split-brain cases once in a while which indicate that there are
a few bugs/corner cases yet to be discovered and fixed.

Fortunately, commit  8016d51a3bbd410b0b927ed66be50a09574b7982 added
GF_CLIENT_PID_GLFS_HEALD as the pid for all fops made by glfsheal. If we
leverage this and allow lookups in afr when pid is GF_CLIENT_PID_GLFS_HEALD,
split-brain resolution commands will work for replica 3 volumes too.

Likewise, the check is added in shard_lookup as well to permit resolving
split-brains by specifying "/.shard/shard-file.xx" as the file name
(which previously used to fail with EPERM).

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.
