Please review, it's not always just the comments that were fixed.
I've had to revert of course all calls to creat() that were changed
to create() ...
Only compile-tested!

The bitrot scrubber takes 'hourly/daily/biweekly/monthly'
as the values for 'scrub-frequency'. There is no way
to schedule the scrubbing when the admin wants it.
Ondemand scrubbing brings in the new option 'ondemand'
with which the admin can start scrubbing ondemand.
It starts the scrubbing immediately.
Ondemand scrubbing is successful only if the scrubber
is in 'Active (Idle)' (waiting for it's next frequency
cycle to start scrubbing). It is not entertained when
the scrubber is in 'Paused' or already running.
Here is the command line syntax.
gluster volume bitrot <vol name> scrub ondemand

Since throttling is a separate feature by itself,
move throttling code to libglusterfs.

Bitrot scrub-frequency supports "hourly|daily|weekly|biweekly|monthly".
But it is painful for testing as minimum scrub-interval is an hour
Hence introducing a scrub interval of minute to ease testing.
It is intentionally not exposed in bitrot command help as it is
only for testing.
e.g.,
gluster vol bitrot <volname> scrub-frequency minute

Earlier the lock was using glusterfs macros
LOCK/UNLOCK/LOCK_INIT/LOCK_DESTROY. The patch
http://review.gluster.org/#/c/14140/ used 'pthread_cleanup_push'
interface for the same lock which was giving "initialization
discards qualifiers from pointer target type". It's strange that
the build succeeded in master branch with no warnings but fails for
the backport http://review.gluster.org/#/c/14140/ in 3.7 branch
treating this warning as error.

The patch does following changes.
1. Introduce scrubber monitor thread.
2. Move scrub status related APIs to separate file
and make part of libbitrot library.
Problem:
Earlier, each child of the scrubber was maintaining
the state machine and hence there was no way to track
the start and end time of scrubbing as each brick has
it's own start and end time. Also each brick was maintaining
it's own timer wheel instance. It was also not possible
to get scrubbed files count per session as we could not
get last child which finishes scrubbing to reset it to
zero.
Solution:
Introduce scrubber monitor thread. It does following.
1. Maintains the scrubber state machine. Earlier each
child had it's own state machine. Now, only monitor
maintains on behalf of all it's children.
2. Maintains the timer wheel instance. Earlier each
child had it's own timer wheel instance. Now, only
monitor maintains on behalf of all it's children.
As a result, we can track the scrub statistics easily
and correctly.

When bitrot is configured on multiple volumes
in a cluster and scrubber-frequency is changed
for one volume, it is resetting frequency for
all other volumes w.r.t to its scrubber-frequency.
This should not happen. Changing scrubber-frequency
should affect only that volume on which it is set.
This patch fixes the issue.
Also restricted the logs to the configure volume.

This is a short series of patches (with other cleanups) aimed at
cleaning up some of the incorrect assumptions taken in reconfigure()
leading to crashes when subvolumes are not fully initialized (as
reported here[1] on gluster-devel@). Furthermore, there is some
amount of code cleanup to handle disconnection and cleanup up data
structure (as part of subsequent patch).

Brick connection was bloated (and not implemented efficiently) with
calls which were not required to be called under lock. This resulted
in starvation of lock by critical code paths. This eventally did not
scale when the number of bricks per volume increases (add-brick and
the likes).
Also, this patch cleans up some of the weird reconnection logic that
added more to the starvation of resources and cleans up uncontrolled
growing of log files.

This patch reimplments existing scrub-frequency mechanism used
to schedule scrubber runs. Existing mechanism uses periodic
sleeps (waking up periodically on minimum granularity) and
performing a number of tracking checks based on counters and
sleep times. This patch does away with all the nifty counters
and uses timer-wheel to schedule scrub runs.
Scheduling changes are peformed by merely calculating the new
expiry time and calling mod_timer() [mod_timer_pending() in
some cases] making the code more debuggable and easier to
follow. This also introduces "hourly" scrubbing tunable as an
aid for testing scrubbing during development/testing cycle.
One could also implement on-demand scrubbing with ease: by
invoking mod_timer() with an expiry of one (1) second, thereby
scheduling a scrub run the very next second.

This patch refactors the signing trigger mechanism used by bitrot
daemon as a "catch up" meachanism to sign files which _missed_
signing on the last run either due to bitrot being disabled and
enabled again or if bitrot is enabled for a volume with existing
data.
Existing implementation relies on overloading writev() to trigger
signing which just by the looks sounded dangerous and I hated it
to the core. This change moves all that business to the setxattr
interface thereby keeping the writev path strictly for client
IO.
Why not use IPC fop to trigger signing?
There's a need to access the object's inode to perform various
maintainance operations. inode is not _directly_ accessible in
the IPC fop (although, it can be found via inode_grep() for the
object's GFID - the inode just needs to be pinned in memory,
which is the case if there's an active fd on the inode). This
patch relies on good old technique of overloading fsetxattr()
to do the job instead of using IPC fop.
There are some pretty nice cleanups along the lines of memory
deallocations, unncessary allocations and redundant ref()ing
of structures (such as fd's) provided by this patch. All in
all - much improved code navigation.

* This patch brings in the changes where object versioning is done in write and
truncate fops instead of tracking them in open and create fops. This model
works for both regular and anonymous fds. It also removes the race associated
with open calls, create and lookups.
This patch follows the below method for object versioning and notifications:
Before sending writev on the fd, increase the ongoing
version first. This makes anonymous fd write similar to the regular
fd write by having the ongoing version increased before doing the
write.
Do following steps to do versioning:
1) For anonymous fds set the fd context (so that release is invoked) and add
the fd context to the list maintained in the inode context.
For regular fds the above think would have been done in open itself.
2) Increase the on-disk ongoing version
3) Increase the in memory ongoing version and mark inode as non-dirty
3) Once versioning is successfully done send write operation. If
versioning fails, then fail the write fop.
5) In writev_cbk mark inode as modified.

With logical scan/scrub split, pausing filesystem scrubber is an
override to the thread throttling mechanism, which effectively
throttles "down" number of scrubber threads to zero. This causes
scanner to wait until threads are spawned again (when resumed)
thereby continuing where it left off (since the file tree walk
stack is effectively preserved when the main scanner thread
is waiting for scrubbers to consume scanned entries).
The only catch is when scrubber daemon restarts: file tree walk
stack is lost and scrubbing initiates from root. This is probably
OK for now (can be changed later to persist parent directory
information before entering pause state).

This patch introduces multithreaded filesystem scrubber based
on throttling option configured for a particular volume. The
implementation "logically" breaks scanning and scrubbing with
the number of scrubber threads auto-configured depending upon
the throttle configuration. Scanning (crawling) is left single
threaded (per brick) with entries scrubbed in bulk. On reaching
this "bulk" watermark, scanner waits until entries are scrubbed.
Bricks for a particular volume have a set of thread(s) assigned
for scrubbing, with entries for each brick scrubbed in a round
robin fashion to avoid scrub "stalls" when a brick (out of N
bricks) is under active scrubbing.
This mechanism helps us implement "pause/resume" with ease: all
one need to do is to cleanup scrubber threads and let the main
scanner thread "wait" untill scrubbing is resumed (where the
scrubber thread(s) are spawned again), therefore continuing
where we left off (unless we restart the deamons, where crawl
initiates from root directory again, but I guess that's OK).
[
NOTE:
Throttling is optional for the signer daemon, without which
it runs full throttle. However, passing "-DBR_RATE_LIMIT_SIGNER"
predefined in CFLAGS enables CPU throttling (during checksum
calculation) thereby avoiding high CPU usage.
]
Subsequent patches would introduce CPU throttling during hash
calculation for scrubber.

BitRot daemons (signer & scrubber) are disk/cpu hoggers when left
running full throttle. Checksum calculations (especially SHA family
of hash routines) can be quite CPU intensive. Moreover periodic
disk scans performed by scrubber followed by reading data blocks
for hash calculation (which is also done by signer) generate lot
of heavy IO request(s). This causes interference with actual client
operations (be it a regular client or filesystems daemons such as
self-heal, etc..) and results in degraded system performance.
This patch introduces throttling based on Token Bucket Filtering[1].
It's a well known algorithm for checking (and ensuring) that data
transmission conform to defined limits and generally used in packet
switched networks. Linux control groups (Cgroups) uses a variant[2]
of this algorithm to provide block device IO throttling (cgroup
subsys "blkio": blk-iothrottle).
So, why not just live with Cgroups?
Cgroups is linux specific. We need to have a throttling mechanism
for other supported UNIXes. Moreover, having our own implementation
gives much more finer control in terms of tuning it for our needs
(plus the simplicity of the alogorithm itself).
Ideally, throttling should be a part of server stack (either as a
separate translator or integrated with io-threads) since that's
the point of entry for IO request(s) from *all* client(s). That
way one could selectively throttle IO request(s) based on client
PIDs (frame->root->pid), e.g., self-heal daemon, bitrot, etc..
(*actual* clients can run full throttle). This implementation
avoids that deliberately (there needs to be a much more smarter
queueing mechanism) and throttles CPU usage for hash calculations.
This patch is just the infrastructure part with no interfaces
exposed to set various throttling values. The tunable selected
here (basically hardcoded) avoids 100% CPU usage during hash
calculation (with some bursts cycles). We'd need much more
intensive test(s) to assign values for various throttling
options (lazy/normal/aggressive).

Scrubber performs signature verification for objects that were
signed by signer. This is done by recalculating the signature
(using the hash algorithm the object was signed with) and
verifying it aginst the objects persisted signature. Since the
object could be undergoing IO opretaion at the time of hash
calculation, the signature may not match objects persisted
signature. Bitrot stub provides additional information about
the stalesness of an objects signature (determinted by it's
versioning mechanism). This additional bit of information is
used by scrubber to determine the staleness of the signature,
and in such cases the object is skipped verification (although
signature staleness is performed twice: once before initiation
of hash calculation and another after it (an object could be
modified after staleness checks).
The implmentation is a part of the bitrot xlator (signer) which
acts as a signer or scrubber based on a translator option. As
of now the scrub process is ever running (but has some form of
weak throttling mechanism during filesystem scan). Going forward,
there needs to be some form of scrub scheduling and IO throttling
(during hash calculation) tunables (via CLI).

This is the "Signer" -- responsible for signing files with their
checksums upon last file descriptor close (last release()).
The event notification facility provided by the changelog xlator
is made use of.
Moreover, checksums are as of now SHA256 hash of the object data
and is the only available hash at this point of time. Therefore,
there is no special "what hash to use" type check, although it's
does not take much to add various hashing algorithms to sign
objects with. Signatures are stored in extended attributes of the
objects along with the the type of hashing used to calculate the
signature. This makes thing future proof when other hash types
are added. The signature infrastructure is provided by bitrot
stub: a little piece of code that sits over the POSIX xlator
providing interfaces to "get or set" objects signature and it's
staleness.
Since objects are signed upon receiving release() notification,
pre-existing data which are "never" modified would never be
signed. To counter this, an initial crawler thread is spawned
The crawler scans the entire brick for objects that are unsigned
or "missed" signing due to the server going offline (node reboots,
crashes, etc..) and triggers an explicit sign. This would also
sign objects when bit-rot is enabled for a volume and/or after
upgrade.
