* core: make the per glusterfs_ctx_t timer-wheel refcountedNiels de Vos2017-05-011-23/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | xlators can use a 'global' timer-wheel for scheduling events. This timer-wheel is managed per glusterfs_ctx_t, but does not need to be allocated for every graph. When an xlator wants to use the timer-wheel, it will be instanciated on demand, and provided to xlators that request it later on. By adding a reference counter to the glusterfs_ctx_t for the timer-wheel, the threads and structures can be cleaned up when the last xlator does not have a need for it anymore. In general, the xlators request the timer-wheel in init(), and they should return it in fini(). Because the timer-wheel is managed per glusterfs_ctx_t, the functions can be added to ctx.c and do not need to live in their very minimal tw.[ch] files.

* core: Global timer-wheelVenky Shankar2015-04-261-0/+23
Instantiate a process wide global instance of the timer wheel data structure. Spawning glusterfs* process with option arg "--global-timer-wheel" instantiates a global instance of timer-wheel under global context (->ctx). Translators can make use of this process wide instance [via a call to glusterfs_global_timer_wheel()] instead of maintaining an instance of their own and possibly consuming more memory. Linux kernel too has a single instance of timer wheel where subsystems such as IO, networking, etc.. make use of. Bitrot daemon would be early consumers of this: bitrot translator instances for multiple volumes would track objects belonging to their respective bricks in this global expiry tracking data structure. This is also a first step to move GlusterFS timer mechanism to use timer-wheel.
