libgfapi: adding 'follow' flag to glfs_h_lookupat()
This patch is backport of http://review.gluster.org/#/c/11883/
Previously glfs_h_lookupat won't follow the symlink, this patch
introduces new flag `follow` which will resolve the same. Applications
linking against the new library will need to use the new glfs_h_lookupat
API call.
In order to stay compatible with existing binaries that use the previous
glfs_h_lookupat() function, the old symbol needs to stay available.
Verification that there are two versions of glfs_h_lookupat:
$ objdump -T /usr/lib64/libgfapi.so.0 | grep -w glfs_h_lookupat
0000000000015070 g DF .text 000000000000021e GFAPI_3.7.4 glfs_h_lookupat
0000000000015290 g DF .text 0000000000000008 (GFAPI_3.4.2) glfs_h_lookupat
Testing with a binary (based on anonymous_fd_read_write.c from ./tests/)
that was linked against the old library:
$ objdump -T ./lookupat | grep -w glfs_h_lookupat
0000000000000000 DF *UND* 0000000000000000 GFAPI_3.4.2 glfs_h_lookupat
Enable debugging for 'ld.so' so that we can check that the GFAPI_3.4.2
version of the symbol gets loaded:
$ export LD_DEBUG_OUTPUT=lookupat.ld.log LD_DEBUG=all
$ ./lookupat
$ grep -w glfs_h_lookupat lookupat.ld.log.2543
2543: symbol=glfs_h_lookupat; lookup in file=./lookupat [0]
2543: symbol=glfs_h_lookupat; lookup in file=/lib64/libgfapi.so.0 [0]
2543: binding file ./lookupat [0] to /lib64/libgfapi.so.0 [0]: normal symbol `glfs_h_lookupat' [GFAPI_3.4.2]
