event: rename event_XXX with gf_ prefixed
I hit one crash issue when using the libgfapi.
In the libgfapi it will call glfs_poller() --> 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.
