And minor cleanup of a few of the Makefile.am files while we're
at it.

Rewrite the make rules to do what xdrgen does. Now we can get rid
of xdrgen.

Note 1. netbsd6's sed doesn't do -i. Why are we still running
smoke tests on netbsd6 and not netbsd7? We barely support netbsd7
as it is.

Note 2. Why is/was libgfxdr.so (.../rpc/xdr/src/...) linked with
libglusterfs? A cut-and-paste mistake? It has no references to
symbols in libglusterfs.

Note3. "/#ifndef\|#define\|#endif/" (note the '\'s) is a _basic_
regex that matches the same lines as the _extended_ regex
"/#(ifndef|define|endif)/". To match the extended regex sed needs to
be run with -r on Linux; with -E on *BSD. However NetBSD's and
FreeBSD's sed helpfully also provide -r for compatibility. Using a
basic regex avoids having to use a kludge in order to run sed with
the correct option on OS X.

Note 4. Not copying the bit of xdrgen that inserts copyright/license
boilerplate. AFAIK it's silly to pretend that machine generated
files like these can be copyrighted or need license boilerplate.
The XDR source files have their own copyright and license; and
their copyrights are bound to be more up to date than old
boilerplate inserted by a script. From what I've seen of other
Open Source projects -- e.g. gcc and its C parser files generated
by yacc and lex -- IIRC they don't bother to add copyright/license
boilerplate to their generated files.

It appears that it's a long-standing feature of make (SysV, BSD,
gnu) for out-of-tree builds to helpfully pretend that the source
files it can find in the VPATH "exist" as if they are in the $cwd.
rpcgen doesn't work well in this situation and generates files
with "bad" #include directives.

E.g. if you `rpcgen ../../../../$srcdir/rpc/xdr/src/glusterfs3-xdr.x`,
you get an #include directive in the generated .c file like this:

  ...
  #include "../../../../$srcdir/rpc/xdr/src/glusterfs3-xdr.h"
  ...

which (obviously) results in compile errors on out-of-tree build
because the (generated) header file doesn't exist at that location.
Compared to `rpcgen ./glusterfs3-xdr.x` where you get:

  ...
  #include "glusterfs3-xdr.h"
  ...

Which is what we need. We have to resort to some Stupid Make Tricks
like the addition of various .PHONY targets to work around the VPATH
"help".

Warning: When doing an in-tree build, -I$(top_builddir)/rpc/xdr/...
looks exactly like -I$(top_srcdir)/rpc/xdr/...  Don't be fooled though.
And don't delete the -I$(top_builddir)/rpc/xdr/... bits

Revisiting http://review.gluster.org/#/c/11814/, which unintentionally
introduced warnings from libtool about the xlator .so names.

According to [1], the -module option must appear in the Makefile.am
file(s); if -module is defined in a macro, e.g. in configure(.ac),
then libtool will not recognize that this is a module and will emit a
warning.

We've been lucky that we haven't had any symbol collisions until now.
Now we have a collision between the snapview-client's svc_lookup() and
libntirpc's svc_lookup() with nfs-ganesha's FSAL_GLUSTER and libgfapi.

As a short term solution all the snapview-client's FOP methods were
changed to static scope. See http://review.gluster.org/11805. This
works in snapview-client because all the FOP methods are defined in
a single source file. This solution doesn't work for other xlators
with FOP methods defined in multiple source files.

To address this we link with libtool's '-export-symbols $symbol-file'
(a wrapper around `ld --version-script ...` --- on linux anyway) and
only export the minimum required symbols from the xlator sharedlib.

N.B. the libtool man page says that the symbol file should be named
foo.sym, thus the rename of *.exports to *.sym. While foo.exports
worked, we will follow the documentation.

<title>stack: use list_head for managing frames</title>

<content type='text'>
PROBLEM
--------

statedump requests that traverse call frames of all call stacks in
execution may race with a STACK_RESET on a stack.  This could crash the
corresponding glusterfs process. For e.g, recently we observed this in a
regression test case tests/basic/afr/sparse-self-heal.t.

FIX
---

gf_proc_dump_pending_frames takes a (TRY_LOCK) call_pool-&gt;lock before
iterating through call frames of all call stacks in progress.  With this
fix, STACK_RESET removes its call frames under the same lock.

Additional info
----------------

This fix makes call_stack_t to use struct list_head in place of custom
doubly-linked list implementation. This makes call_frame_t manipulation
easier to maintain in the context of STACK_WIND et al.

<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.

- Provides a working Gluster Management Daemon, CLI
- Provides a working GlusterFS server, GlusterNFS server
- Provides a working GlusterFS client
- execinfo port from FreeBSD is moved into ./contrib/libexecinfo
  for ease of portability on NetBSD. (FreeBSD 10 and OSX provide
  execinfo natively)
- More portability cleanups for Darwin, FreeBSD and NetBSD
- Provides a new rc script for FreeBSD
