without the fix, the stat entry on a file would return inode==1 for
many files, in case of subdir mount

This happened with the confusion of return value of 'gf_uuid_compare()',
it is more like strcmp, instead of a gf_boolean return value, and hence 
resulted in the bug.

There should be different way we handle handshake in case of subdir
mount for the first time, and in case of subsequent graph changes.

Problem:
1. Ref counting increment on the client_t object is done in
   rpcsvc_request_init() which is incorrect.
2. Ref not taken when delegating to grace_time_handler()

Solution:
1. Only fop requests which require processing down the graph via
   stack 'frames' now ref count the request in get_frame_from_request()
2. Take ref on client_t object in server_rpc_notify() but avoid
   dropping in RPCSVC_EVENT_TRANSPORT_DESRTROY. Drop the ref
   unconditionally when exiting out of grace_time_handler().
   Also, avoid dropping ref on client_t in
   RPCSVC_EVENT_TRANSPORT_DESTROY when ref mangement as been
   delegated to grace_time_handler()

<title>glusterfsd: allow subdir mount</title>

<id>ae084046cce12a1ce707b5d141f092b4c011e1b3</id>
<content type='text'>
Changes:

1. Take subdir mount option in client (mount.gluster / glusterfsd)
2. Pass the subdir mount to server-handshake (from client-handshake)
3. Handle subdir-mount dir's lookup in server-first-lookup and handle
   all fops resolution accordingly with proper gfid of subdir
4. Change the auth/addr module to handle the multiple subdir entries
   in option, and valid parsing.

How to use the feature:

`# mount -t glusterfs $hostname:/$volname/$subdir /$mount_point`
Or
`# mount -t glusterfs $hostname:/$volname -osubdir_mount=$subdir /$mount_point`

Option can be set like:

`# gluster volume set &lt;volname&gt; auth.allow "/subdir1(192.168.1.*),/(192.168.10.*),/subdir2(192.168.8.*)"`

Updates #175

<title>program/GF-DUMP: Shield ping processing from traffic to Glusterfs</title>

Program

Since poller thread bears the brunt of execution till the request is
handed over to io-threads, poller thread experiencies lock
contention(s) in the control flow till io-threads, which slows it
down. This delay invariably affects reading ping requests from network
and responding to them, resulting in increased ping latencies, which
sometimes results in a ping-timer-expiry on client leading to
disconnect of transport. So, this patch aims to free up poller thread
from executing code of Glusterfs Program. We do this by making

* Glusterfs Program registering itself asking rpcsvc to execute its
  actors in its own threads.
* GF-DUMP Program registering itself asking rpcsvc to _NOT_ execute
  its actors in its own threads. Otherwise program's ownthreads become
  bottleneck in processing ping traffic. This means that poller thread
  reads a ping packet, invokes its actor and hands the response msg to
  transport queue.

<title>mgtm/core : use sha hash function for volfile check</title>
<updated>2017-07-10T05:07:11+00:00</updated>
<author>
<name>Mohammed Rafi KC</name>
<email>rkavunga@redhat.com</email>

<published>2017-07-06T07:56:42+00:00</published>
<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dev.gluster.org/cgit/glusterfs.git/commit/?id=f2f3d74c835b68ad9ec63ec112870829a823a1fb'/>
<id>f2f3d74c835b68ad9ec63ec112870829a823a1fb</id>
<content type='text'>
We are storing the entire volfile and using this to check
volfile change. With brick multiplexing there will be lot
of graphs per process which will increase the memory foot
print of the process. So instead of storing the entire
graph we could use sha256 and we can compare the hash to
see whether volfile change happened or not.

Also with Brick multiplexing, the direct comparison of vol
file is not correct. There are two problems.

Problem 1:

We are currently storing one single graph (the last
updated volfile) whereas, what we need is the entire
graph with all atttached bricks.

If we fix this issue, we have second problem

Problem 2:
With multiplexing we have a graph that contains multiple
bricks. But what we are checking as part of the reconfigure
is, comparing the entire graph with one single graph,
which will always fail.

Solution:
We create list in glusterfs_ctx_t that stores sha256 hash
of individual brick graphs. When a graph changes happens
we compare the stored hash and the current hash. If the
hash matches, then no need for reconfigure. Otherwise we
first do the reconfigure and then update the hash.

For now, gfapi has not changed this way. Meaning when gfapi
volfile fetch or reconfigure happens, we still store the
entire graph and compare, each memory.

This is fine, because libgfapi will not load brick graphs.
But changing the libgfapi will make the code similar in
both glusterfsd-mgmt and api. Also it helps to reduce some
memory.

We are storing the entire volfile and using this to check
volfile change. With brick multiplexing there will be lot
of graphs per process which will increase the memory foot
print of the process. So instead of storing the entire
graph we could use sha256 and we can compare the hash to
see whether volfile change happened or not.

Also with Brick multiplexing, the direct comparison of vol
file is not correct. There are two problems.

Problem 1:

We are currently storing one single graph (the last
updated volfile) whereas, what we need is the entire
graph with all atttached bricks.

If we fix this issue, we have second problem

Problem 2:
With multiplexing we have a graph that contains multiple
bricks. But what we are checking as part of the reconfigure
is, comparing the entire graph with one single graph,
which will always fail.

Solution:
We create list in glusterfs_ctx_t that stores sha256 hash
of individual brick graphs. When a graph changes happens
we compare the stored hash and the current hash. If the
hash matches, then no need for reconfigure. Otherwise we
first do the reconfigure and then update the hash.

For now, gfapi has not changed this way. Meaning when gfapi
volfile fetch or reconfigure happens, we still store the
entire graph and compare, each memory.

This is fine, because libgfapi will not load brick graphs.
But changing the libgfapi will make the code similar in
both glusterfsd-mgmt and api. Also it helps to reduce some
memory.

<title>groups: don't allocate auxiliary gid list on stack</title>

When glusterfs wants to retrieve the list of auxiliary gids
of a user, it typically allocates a sufficiently big gid_t
array on stack and calls getgrouplist(3) with it. However,
"sufficiently big" means to be of maximum supported gid list
size, which in GlusterFS is GF_MAX_AUX_GROUPS = 64k.
That means a 64k * sizeof(gid_t) = 256k allocation, which is
big enough to overflow the stack in certain cases.

A further observation is that stack allocation of the gid list
brings no gain, as in all cases the content of the gid list
eventually gets copied over to a heap allocated buffer.

So we add a convenience wrapper of getgrouplist to libglusterfs
called gf_getgrouplist which calls getgrouplist with a sufficiently
big heap allocated buffer (it takes care of the allocation too).
We are porting all the getgrouplist invocations to gf_getgrouplist
and thus eliminate the huge stack allocation.

When external programs perform a dlopen("..so", RTLD_LAZY|RTLD_LOCAL)
on some shared objects like xlators, it can fail with dlerror set to
error string "undefined symbol &lt;some-type&gt;".

This was observed for the following shared objects: fuse.so, quota.so,
quotad.so, server.so, libgfrpc.so and socket.so

P.S: This was found while running a go program which fetches the list
of xlator options (volume_option_t) from xlator's shared object.
