Simplify afs_cell record handling to avoid very occasional races that cause
module removal to hang (it waits for all cell records to be removed).
There are two things that particularly contribute to the difficulty:
firstly, the code tries to pass a ref on the cell to the cell's maintenance
work item (which gets awkward if the work item is already queued); and,
secondly, there's an overall cell manager that tries to use just one timer
for the entire cell collection (to avoid having loads of timers). However,
both of these are probably unnecessarily restrictive.
To simplify this, the following changes are made:
(1) The cell record collection manager is removed. Each cell record
manages itself individually.
(2) Each afs_cell is given a second work item (cell->destroyer) that is
queued when its refcount reaches zero. This is not done in the
context of the putting thread as it might be in an inconvenient place
to sleep.
(3) Each afs_cell is given its own timer. The timer is used to expire the
cell record after a period of unuse if not otherwise pinned and can
also be used for other maintenance tasks if necessary (of which there
are currently none as DNS refresh is triggered by filesystem
operations).
(4) The afs_cell manager work item (cell->manager) is no longer given a
ref on the cell when queued; rather, the manager must be deleted.
This does away with the need to deal with the consequences of losing a
race to queue cell->manager. Clean up of extra queuing is deferred to
the destroyer.
(5) The cell destroyer work item makes sure the cell timer is removed and
that the normal cell work is cancelled before farming the actual
destruction off to RCU.
(6) When a network namespace is destroyed or the kafs module is unloaded,
it's now a simple matter of marking the namespace as dead then just
waking up all the cell work items. They will then remove and destroy
themselves once all remaining activity counts and/or a ref counts are
dropped. This makes sure that all server records are dropped first.
(7) The cell record state set is reduced to just four states: SETTING_UP,
ACTIVE, REMOVING and DEAD. The record persists in the active state
even when it's not being used until the time comes to remove it rather
than downgrading it to an inactive state from whence it can be
restored.
This means that the cell still appears in /proc and /afs when not in
use until it switches to the REMOVING state - at which point it is
removed.
Note that the REMOVING state is included so that someone wanting to
resurrect the cell record is forced to wait whilst the cell is torn
down in that state. Once it's in the DEAD state, it has been removed
from net->cells tree and is no longer findable and can be replaced.

The current way that afs_server refs are accounted and cleaned up sometimes
cause rmmod to hang when it is waiting for cell records to be removed. The
problem is that the cell cleanup might occasionally happen before the
server cleanup and then there's nothing that causes the cell to
garbage-collect the remaining servers as they become inactive.
Partially fix this by:
(1) Give each afs_server record its own management timer that rather than
relying on the cell manager's central timer to drive each individual
cell's maintenance work item to garbage collect servers.
This timer is set when afs_unuse_server() reduces a server's activity
count to zero and will schedule the server's destroyer work item upon
firing.
(2) Give each afs_server record its own destroyer work item that removes
the record from the cell's database, shuts down the timer, cancels any
pending work for itself, sends an RPC to the server to cancel
outstanding callbacks.
This change, in combination with the timer, obviates the need to try
and coordinate so closely between the cell record and a bunch of other
server records to try and tear everything down in a coordinated
fashion. With this, the cell record is pinned until the server RCU is
complete and namespace/module removal will wait until all the cell
records are removed.
(3) Now that incoming calls are mapped to servers (and thus cells) using
data attached to an rxrpc_peer, the UUID-to-server mapping tree is
moved from the namespace to the cell (cell->fs_servers). This means
there can no longer be duplicates therein - and that allows the
mapping tree to be simpler as there doesn't need to be a chain of
same-UUID servers that are in different cells.
(4) The lock protecting the UUID mapping tree is switched to an
rw_semaphore on the cell rather than a seqlock on the namespace as
it's now only used during mounting in contexts in which we're allowed
to sleep.
(5) When it comes time for a cell that is being removed to purge its set
of servers, it just needs to iterate over them and wake them up. Once
a server becomes inactive, its destroyer work item will observe the
state of the cell and immediately remove that record.
(6) When a server record is removed, it is marked AFS_SERVER_FL_EXPIRED to
prevent reattempts at removal. The record will be dispatched to RCU
for destruction once its refcount reaches 0.
(7) The AFS_SERVER_FL_UNCREATED/CREATING flags are used to synchronise
simultaneous creation attempts. If one attempt fails, it will abandon
the attempt and allow another to try again.
Note that the record can't just be abandoned when dead as it's bound
into a server list attached to a volume and only subject to
replacement if the server list obtained for the volume from the VLDB
changes.

Change the AFS dynamic root to do things differently:
(1) Rather than having the creation of cell records create inodes and
dentries for cell mountpoints, create them on demand during lookup.
This simplifies cell management and locking as we no longer have to
create these objects in advance *and* on speculative lookup by the
user for a cell that isn't precreated.
(2) Rather than using the libfs dentry-based readdir (the dentries now no
longer exist until accessed from (1)), have readdir generate the
contents by reading the list of cells. The @cell symlinks get pushed
in positions 2 and 3 if rootcell has been configured.
(3) Make the @cell symlink dentries persist for the life of the superblock
or until reclaimed, but make cell mountpoints disappear immediately if
unused.
It's not perfect as someone doing an "ls -l /afs" may create a whole
bunch of dentries which will be garbage collected immediately. But
any dentry that gets automounted will be pinned by the mount, so it
shouldn't be too bad.
(4) Allocate the inode numbers for the cell mountpoints from an IDR to
prevent duplicates appearing in the event it cycles round. The number
allocated from the IDR is doubled to provide two inode numbers - one
for the normal cell name (RO) and one for the dotted cell name (RW).

The ->get_link() method may be entered under RCU pathwalk conditions (in
which case, the dentry pointer is NULL). This is not taken account of by
afs_atcell_get_link() and lockdep will complain when it tries to lock an
rwsem.
Fix this by marking net->ws_cell as __rcu and using RCU access macros on it
and by making afs_atcell_get_link() just return a pointer to the name in
RCU pathwalk without taking net->cells_lock or a ref on the cell as RCU
will protect the name storage (the cell is already freed via call_rcu()).

Add some checks for the validity of the cell name. It's may get put into a
symlink, so preclude it containing any slashes or "..". Also disallow
starting/ending with a dot. This makes /afs/@cell/ as a symlink less of a
security risk.
Also disallow multiple setting of /proc/net/afs/rootcell for any given
network namespace. Once set, the value may not be changed. This makes it
easier to only create /afs/@cell and /afs/.@cell if there's a rootcell.

Overhaul the third party-induced invalidation handling, making use of the
previously added volume-level event counters (cb_scrub and cb_ro_snapshot)
that are now being parsed out of the VolSync record returned by the
fileserver in many of its replies.
This allows better handling of RO (and Backup) volumes. Since these are
snapshot of a RW volume that are updated atomically simultantanously across
all servers that host them, they only require a single callback promise for
the entire volume. The currently upstream code assumes that RO volumes
operate in the same manner as RW volumes, and that each file has its own
individual callback - which means that it does a status fetch for *every*
file in a RO volume, whether or not the volume got "released" (volume
callback breaks can occur for other reasons too, such as the volumeserver
taking ownership of a volume from a fileserver).
To this end, make the following changes:
(1) Change the meaning of the volume's cb_v_break counter so that it is
now a hint that we need to issue a status fetch to work out the state
of a volume. cb_v_break is incremented by volume break callbacks and
by server initialisation callbacks.
(2) Add a second counter, cb_v_check, to the afs_volume struct such that
if this differs from cb_v_break, we need to do a check. When the
check is complete, cb_v_check is advanced to what cb_v_break was at
the start of the status fetch.
(3) Move the list of mmap'd vnodes to the volume and trigger removal of
PTEs that map to files on a volume break rather than on a server
break.
(4) When a server reinitialisation callback comes in, use the
server-to-volume reverse mapping added in a preceding patch to iterate
over all the volumes using that server and clear the volume callback
promises for that server and the general volume promise as a whole to
trigger reanalysis.
(5) Replace the AFS_VNODE_CB_PROMISED flag with an AFS_NO_CB_PROMISE
(TIME64_MIN) value in the cb_expires_at field, reducing the number of
checks we need to make.
(6) Change afs_check_validity() to quickly see if various event counters
have been incremented or if the vnode or volume callback promise is
due to expire/has expired without making any changes to the state.
That is now left to afs_validate() as this may get more complicated in
future as we may have to examine server records too.
(7) Overhaul afs_validate() so that it does a single status fetch if we
need to check the state of either the vnode or the volume - and do so
under appropriate locking. The function does the following steps:
(A) If the vnode/volume is no longer seen as valid, then we take the
vnode validation lock and, if the volume promise has expired, the
volume check lock also. The latter prevents redundant checks being
made to find out if a new version of the volume got released.
(B) If a previous RPC call found that the volsync changed unexpectedly
or that a RO volume was updated, then we unmap all PTEs pointing to
the file to stop mmap being used for access.
(C) If the vnode is still seen to be of uncertain validity, then we
perform an FS.FetchStatus RPC op to jointly update the volume status
and the vnode status. This assessment is done as part of parsing the
reply:
If the RO volume creation timestamp advances, cb_ro_snapshot is
incremented; if either the creation or update timestamps changes in
an unexpected way, the cb_scrub counter is incremented
If the Data Version returned doesn't match the copy we have
locally, then we ask for the pagecache to be zapped. This takes
care of handling RO update.
(D) If cb_scrub differs between volume and vnode, the vnode's
pagecache is zapped and the vnode's cb_scrub is updated unless the
file is marked as having been deleted.

Apply server breaks to mmap'd files that are being used from that server
from the call processor work function rather than punting it off to a
workqueue. The work item, afs_server_init_callback(), then bumps each
individual inode off to its own work item introducing a potentially lengthy
delay. This reduces that delay at the cost of extending the amount of time
we delay replying to the CB.InitCallBack3 notification RPC from the server.

Make it possible to find the afs_volume structs that are using an
afs_server struct to aid in breaking volume callbacks.
The way this is done is that each afs_volume already has an array of
afs_server_entry records that point to the servers where that volume might
be found. An afs_volume backpointer and a list node is added to each entry
and each entry is then added to an RCU-traversable list on the afs_server
to which it points.

In afs_update_cell(), ret is the result of the DNS lookup and the errors
are to be handled by a switch - however, the value gets clobbered in
between by setting it to -ENOMEM in case afs_alloc_vlserver_list()
fails.
Fix this by moving the setting of -ENOMEM into the error handling for
OOM failure. Further, only do it if we don't have an alternative error
to return.

Change the afs filesystem to support the new afs driver.
The following changes have been made:
(1) The fscache_netfs struct is no more, and there's no need to register
the filesystem as a whole. There's also no longer a cell cookie.
(2) The volume cookie is now an fscache_volume cookie, allocated with
fscache_acquire_volume(). This function takes three parameters: a
string representing the "volume" in the index, a string naming the
cache to use (or NULL) and a u64 that conveys coherency metadata for
the volume.
For afs, I've made it render the volume name string as:
"afs,<cell>,<volume_id>"
and the coherency data is currently 0.
(3) The fscache_cookie_def is no more and needed information is passed
directly to fscache_acquire_cookie(). The cache no longer calls back
into the filesystem, but rather metadata changes are indicated at
other times.
fscache_acquire_cookie() is passed the same keying and coherency
information as before, except that these are now stored in big endian
form instead of cpu endian. This makes the cache more copyable.
(4) fscache_use_cookie() and fscache_unuse_cookie() are called when a file
is opened or closed to prevent a cache file from being culled and to
keep resources to hand that are needed to do I/O.
fscache_use_cookie() is given an indication if the cache is likely to
be modified locally (e.g. the file is open for writing).
fscache_unuse_cookie() is given a coherency update if we had the file
open for writing and will update that.
(5) fscache_invalidate() is now given uptodate auxiliary data and a file
size. It can also take a flag to indicate if this was due to a DIO
write. This is wrapped into afs_fscache_invalidate() now for
convenience.
(6) fscache_resize() now gets called from the finalisation of
afs_setattr(), and afs_setattr() does use/unuse of the cookie around
the call to support this.
(7) fscache_note_page_release() is called from afs_release_page().
(8) Use a killable wait in nfs_vm_page_mkwrite() when waiting for
PG_fscache to be cleared.
Render the parts of the cookie key for an afs inode cookie as big endian.

Fix the coherency management of mmap'd data such that 3rd-party changes
become visible as soon as possible after the callback notification is
delivered by the fileserver. This is done by the following means:
(1) When we break a callback on a vnode specified by the CB.CallBack call
from the server, we queue a work item (vnode->cb_work) to go and
clobber all the PTEs mapping to that inode.
This causes the CPU to trip through the ->map_pages() and
->page_mkwrite() handlers if userspace attempts to access the page(s)
again.
(Ideally, this would be done in the service handler for CB.CallBack,
but the server is waiting for our reply before considering, and we
have a list of vnodes, all of which need breaking - and the process of
getting the mmap_lock and stripping the PTEs on all CPUs could be
quite slow.)
(2) Call afs_validate() from the ->map_pages() handler to check to see if
the file has changed and to get a new callback promise from the
server.
Also handle the fileserver telling us that it's dropping all callbacks,
possibly after it's been restarted by sending us a CB.InitCallBackState*
call by the following means:
(3) Maintain a per-cell list of afs files that are currently mmap'd
(cell->fs_open_mmaps).
(4) Add a work item to each server that is invoked if there are any open
mmaps when CB.InitCallBackState happens. This work item goes through
the aforementioned list and invokes the vnode->cb_work work item for
each one that is currently using this server.
This causes the PTEs to be cleared, causing ->map_pages() or
->page_mkwrite() to be called again, thereby calling afs_validate()
again.
I've chosen to simply strip the PTEs at the point of notification reception
rather than invalidate all the pages as well because (a) it's faster, (b)
we may get a notification for other reasons than the data being altered (in
which case we don't want to clobber the pagecache) and (c) we need to ask
the server to find out - and I don't want to wait for the reply before
holding up userspace.
This was tested using the attached test program:
#include <stdbool.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <sys/mman.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
size_t size = getpagesize();
unsigned char *p;
bool mod = (argc == 3);
int fd;
if (argc != 2 && argc != 3) {
fprintf(stderr, "Format: %s <file> [mod]\n", argv[0]);
exit(2);
}
fd = open(argv[1], mod ? O_RDWR : O_RDONLY);
if (fd < 0) {
perror(argv[1]);
exit(1);
}
p = mmap(NULL, size, mod ? PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE : PROT_READ,
MAP_SHARED, fd, 0);
if (p == MAP_FAILED) {
perror("mmap");
exit(1);
}
for (;;) {
if (mod) {
p[0]++;
msync(p, size, MS_ASYNC);
fsync(fd);
}
printf("%02x", p[0]);
fflush(stdout);
sleep(1);
}
}
It runs in two modes: in one mode, it mmaps a file, then sits in a loop
reading the first byte, printing it and sleeping for a second; in the
second mode it mmaps a file, then sits in a loop incrementing the first
byte and flushing, then printing and sleeping.
Two instances of this program can be run on different machines, one doing
the reading and one doing the writing. The reader should see the changes
made by the writer, but without this patch, they aren't because validity
checking is being done lazily - only on entry to the filesystem.
Testing the InitCallBackState change is more complicated. The server has
to be taken offline, the saved callback state file removed and then the
server restarted whilst the reading-mode program continues to run. The
client machine then has to poke the server to trigger the InitCallBackState
call.

Fix cell removal by inserting a more final state than AFS_CELL_FAILED that
indicates that the cell has been unpublished in case the manager is already
requeued and will go through again. The new AFS_CELL_REMOVED state will
just immediately leave the manager function.
Going through a second time in the AFS_CELL_FAILED state will cause it to
try to remove the cell again, potentially leading to the proc list being
removed.

When the afs module is removed, one of the things that has to be done is to
purge the cell database. afs_cell_purge() cancels the management timer and
then starts the cell manager work item to do the purging. This does a
single run through and then assumes that all cells are now purged - but
this is no longer the case.
With the introduction of alias detection, a later cell in the database can
now be holding an active count on an earlier cell (cell->alias_of). The
purge scan passes by the earlier cell first, but this can't be got rid of
until it has discarded the alias. Ordinarily, afs_unuse_cell() would
handle this by setting the management timer to trigger another pass - but
afs_set_cell_timer() doesn't do anything if the namespace is being removed
(net->live == false). rmmod then hangs in the wait on cells_outstanding in
afs_cell_purge().
Fix this by making afs_set_cell_timer() directly queue the cell manager if
net->live is false. This causes additional management passes.
Queueing the cell manager increments cells_outstanding to make sure the
wait won't complete until all cells are destroyed.

Management of the lifetime of afs_cell struct has some problems due to the
usage counter being used to determine whether objects of that type are in
use in addition to whether anyone might be interested in the structure.
This is made trickier by cell objects being cached for a period of time in
case they're quickly reused as they hold the result of a setup process that
may be slow (DNS lookups, AFS RPC ops).
Problems include the cached root volume from alias resolution pinning its
parent cell record, rmmod occasionally hanging and occasionally producing
assertion failures.
Fix this by splitting the count of active users from the struct reference
count. Things then work as follows:
(1) The cell cache keeps +1 on the cell's activity count and this has to
be dropped before the cell can be removed. afs_manage_cell() tries to
exchange the 1 to a 0 with the cells_lock write-locked, and if
successful, the record is removed from the net->cells.
(2) One struct ref is 'owned' by the activity count. That is put when the
active count is reduced to 0 (final_destruction label).
(3) A ref can be held on a cell whilst it is queued for management on a
work queue without confusing the active count. afs_queue_cell() is
added to wrap this.
(4) The queue's ref is dropped at the end of the management. This is
split out into a separate function, afs_manage_cell_work().
(5) The root volume record is put after a cell is removed (at the
final_destruction label) rather then in the RCU destruction routine.
(6) Volumes hold struct refs, but aren't active users.
(7) Both counts are displayed in /proc/net/afs/cells.
There are some management function changes:
(*) afs_put_cell() now just decrements the refcount and triggers the RCU
destruction if it becomes 0. It no longer sets a timer to have the
manager do this.
(*) afs_use_cell() and afs_unuse_cell() are added to increase and decrease
the active count. afs_unuse_cell() sets the management timer.
(*) afs_queue_cell() is added to queue a cell with approprate refs.
There are also some other fixes:
(*) Don't let /proc/net/afs/cells access a cell's vllist if it's NULL.
(*) Make sure that candidate cells in lookups are properly destroyed
rather than being simply kfree'd. This ensures the bits it points to
are destroyed also.
(*) afs_dec_cells_outstanding() is now called in cell destruction rather
than at "final_destruction". This ensures that cell->net is still
valid to the end of the destructor.
(*) As a consequence of the previous two changes, move the increment of
net->cells_outstanding that was at the point of insertion into the
tree to the allocation routine to correctly balance things.

There are a number of problems that are being seen by the rapidly mounting
and unmounting an afs dynamic root with an explicit cell and volume
specified (which should probably be rejected, but that's a separate issue):
What the tests are doing is to look up/create a cell record for the name
given and then tear it down again without actually using it to try to talk
to a server. This is repeated endlessly, very fast, and the new cell
collides with the old one if it's not quick enough to reuse it.
It appears (as suggested by Hillf Danton) that the search through the RB
tree under a read_seqbegin_or_lock() under RCU conditions isn't safe and
that it's not blocking the write_seqlock(), despite taking two passes at
it. He suggested that the code should take a ref on the cell it's
attempting to look at - but this shouldn't be necessary until we've
compared the cell names. It's possible that I'm missing a barrier
somewhere.
However, using an RCU search for this is overkill, really - we only need to
access the cell name in a few places, and they're places where we're may
end up sleeping anyway.
Fix this by switching to an R/W semaphore instead.
Additionally, draw the down_read() call inside the function (renamed to
afs_find_cell()) since all the callers were taking the RCU read lock (or
should've been[*]).
[*] afs_probe_cell_name() should have been, but that doesn't appear to be
involved in the bug reports.
The symptoms of this look like:

Reorganise afs_volume objects such that they're in a tree keyed on volume
ID, rooted at on an afs_cell object rather than being in multiple trees,
each of which is rooted on an afs_server object.
afs_server structs become per-cell and acquire a pointer to the cell.
The process of breaking a callback then starts with finding the server by
its network address, following that to the cell and then looking up each
volume ID in the volume tree.
This is simpler than the afs_vol_interest/afs_cb_interest N:M mapping web
and allows those structs and the code for maintaining them to be simplified
or removed.
It does make a couple of things a bit more tricky, though:
(1) Operations now start with a volume, not a server, so there can be more
than one answer as to whether or not the server we'll end up using
supports the FS.InlineBulkStatus RPC.
(2) CB RPC operations that specify the server UUID. There's still a tree
of servers by UUID on the afs_net struct, but the UUIDs in it aren't
guaranteed unique.

Put in the first phase of cell alias detection. This part handles alias
detection for cells that have root.cell volumes (which is expected to be
likely).
When a cell becomes newly active, it is probed for its root.cell volume,
and if it has one, this volume is compared against other root.cell volumes
to find out if the list of fileserver UUIDs have any in common - and if
that's the case, do the address lists of those fileservers have any
addresses in common. If they do, the new cell is adjudged to be an alias
of the old cell and the old cell is used instead.
Comparing is aided by the server list in struct afs_server_list being
sorted in UUID order and the addresses in the fileserver address lists
being sorted in address order.
The cell then retains the afs_volume object for the root.cell volume, even
if it's not mounted for future alias checking.
This necessary because:
(1) Whilst fileservers have UUIDs that are meant to be globally unique, in
practice they are not because cells get cloned without changing the
UUIDs - so afs_server records need to be per cell.
(2) Sometimes the DNS is used to make cell aliases - but if we don't know
they're the same, we may end up with multiple superblocks and multiple
afs_server records for the same thing, impairing our ability to
deliver callback notifications of third party changes
(3) The fileserver RPC API doesn't contain the cell name, so it can't tell
us which cell it's notifying and can't see that a change made to to
one cell should notify the same client that's also accessed as the
other cell.

The afs filesystem needs to prohibit certain characters from cell names,
such as '/', as these are used to form filenames in procfs, leading to
the following warning being generated:

Fix afs_alloc_cell() to disallow nonprintable characters, '/', '@' and

This can be tested by running:
echo add foo/.bar 1.2.3.4 >/proc/fs/afs/cells
Note that we will also need to deal with:
- Names ending in ".invalid" shouldn't be passed to the DNS.
- Names that contain non-valid domainname chars shouldn't be passed to
the DNS.
- DNS replies that say "your-dns-needs-immediate-attention.<gTLD>" and
replies containing A records that say 127.0.53.53 should be
considered invalid.

Currently, once configured, AFS cells are looked up in the DNS at regular
intervals - which is a waste of resources if those cells aren't being
used. It also leads to a problem where cells preloaded, but not
configured, before the network is brought up end up effectively statically
configured with no VL servers and are unable to get any.
Fix this by not doing the DNS lookup until the first time a cell is
touched. It is waited for if we don't have any cached records yet,
otherwise the DNS lookup to maintain the record is done in the background.
This has the downside that the first time you touch a cell, you now have to
wait for the upcall to do the required DNS lookups rather than them already
being cached.
Further, the record is not replaced if the old record has at least one
server in it and the new record doesn't have any.

addresses together into one set and implement server-level rotation by:
(1) Add the concept of a VL server list, where each server has its own
separate address list. This code is similar to the FS server list.
(2) Use the DNS resolver to retrieve a set of servers and their associated
addresses, ports, preference and weight ratings.
(3) In the case of a legacy DNS resolver or an address list given directly
through /proc/net/afs/cells, create a list containing just a dummy
server record and attach all the addresses to that.
(4) Implement a simple rotation policy, for the moment ignoring the
priorities and weights assigned to the servers.
(5) Show the address list through /proc/net/afs/<cell>/vlservers. This
also displays the source and status of the data as indicated by the
upcall.

Alter the dynroot mount so that cells created by manipulation of
/proc/fs/afs/cells and /proc/fs/afs/rootcell and by specification of a root
cell as a module parameter will cause directories for those cells to be
created in the dynamic root superblock for the network namespace[*].
To this end:
(1) Only one dynamic root superblock is now created per network namespace
and this is shared between all attempts to mount it. This makes it
easier to find the superblock to modify.
(2) When a dynamic root superblock is created, the list of cells is walked
and directories created for each cell already defined.
(3) When a new cell is added, if a dynamic root superblock exists, a
directory is created for it.
(4) When a cell is destroyed, the directory is removed.
(5) These directories are created by calling lookup_one_len() on the root
dir which automatically creates them if they don't exist.

(2) Simplifies the locking requirements of accessing the information as we
don't have to worry about the netfs object going away on us.
(3) The cache can do lazy updating of the coherency information on disk.
As long as the cache is flushed before reboot/poweroff, there's no
need to update the coherency info on disk every time it changes.
(4) Cookies can be hashed or put in a tree as the index key is easily
available. This allows:
(a) Checks for duplicate cookies can be made at the top fscache layer
rather than down in the bowels of the cache backend.
(b) Caching can be added to a netfs object that has a cookie if the
cache is brought online after the netfs object is allocated.
A certain amount of space is made in the cookie for inline copies of the
data, but if it won't fit there, extra memory will be allocated for it.
The downside of this is that live cache operation requires more memory.

wait_var_event() API
The old wait_on_atomic_t() is going to get removed, use the more
flexible wait_var_event() API instead.
No change in functionality.

The current code assumes that volumes and servers are per-cell and are
never shared, but this is not enforced, and, indeed, public cells do exist
that are aliases of each other. Further, an organisation can, say, set up
a public cell and a private cell with overlapping, but not identical, sets
of servers. The difference is purely in the database attached to the VL
servers.
The current code will malfunction if it sees a server in two cells as it
assumes global address -> server record mappings and that each server is in
just one cell.
Further, each server may have multiple addresses - and may have addresses
of different families (IPv4 and IPv6, say).
To this end, the following structural changes are made:
(1) Server record management is overhauled:
(a) Server records are made independent of cell. The namespace keeps
track of them, volume records have lists of them and each vnode
has a server on which its callback interest currently resides.
(b) The cell record no longer keeps a list of servers known to be in
that cell.
(c) The server records are now kept in a flat list because there's no
single address to sort on.
(d) Server records are now keyed by their UUID within the namespace.
(e) The addresses for a server are obtained with the VL.GetAddrsU
rather than with VL.GetEntryByName, using the server's UUID as a
parameter.
(f) Cached server records are garbage collected after a period of
non-use and are counted out of existence before purging is allowed
to complete. This protects the work functions against rmmod.
(g) The servers list is now in /proc/fs/afs/servers.
(2) Volume record management is overhauled:
(a) An RCU-replaceable server list is introduced. This tracks both
servers and their coresponding callback interests.
(b) The superblock is now keyed on cell record and numeric volume ID.
(c) The volume record is now tied to the superblock which mounts it,
and is activated when mounted and deactivated when unmounted.
This makes it easier to handle the cache cookie without causing a
double-use in fscache.
(d) The volume record is loaded from the VLDB using VL.GetEntryByNameU
to get the server UUID list.
(e) The volume name is updated if it is seen to have changed when the
volume is updated (the update is keyed on the volume ID).
(3) The vlocation record is got rid of and VLDB records are no longer
cached. Sufficient information is stored in the volume record, though
an update to a volume record is now no longer shared between related
volumes (volumes come in bundles of three: R/W, R/O and backup).
and the following procedural changes are made:
(1) The fileserver cursor introduced previously is now fleshed out and
used to iterate over fileservers and their addresses.
(2) Volume status is checked during iteration, and the server list is
replaced if a change is detected.
(3) Server status is checked during iteration, and the address list is
replaced if a change is detected.
(4) The abort code is saved into the address list cursor and -ECONNABORTED
returned in afs_make_call() if a remote abort happened rather than
translating the abort into an error message. This allows actions to
be taken depending on the abort code more easily.
(a) If a VMOVED abort is seen then this is handled by rechecking the
volume and restarting the iteration.
(b) If a VBUSY, VRESTARTING or VSALVAGING abort is seen then this is
handled by sleeping for a short period and retrying and/or trying
other servers that might serve that volume. A message is also
displayed once until the condition has cleared.
(c) If a VOFFLINE abort is seen, then this is handled as VBUSY for the
moment.
(d) If a VNOVOL abort is seen, the volume is rechecked in the VLDB to
see if it has been deleted; if not, the fileserver is probably
indicating that the volume couldn't be attached and needs
salvaging.
(e) If statfs() sees one of these aborts, it does not sleep, but
rather returns an error, so as not to block the umount program.
(5) The fileserver iteration functions in vnode.c are now merged into
their callers and more heavily macroised around the cursor. vnode.c
is removed.
(6) Operations on a particular vnode are serialised on that vnode because
the server will lock that vnode whilst it operates on it, so a second
op sent will just have to wait.
(7) Fileservers are probed with FS.GetCapabilities before being used.
This is where service upgrade will be done.
(8) A callback interest on a fileserver is set up before an FS operation
is performed and passed through to afs_make_call() so that it can be
set on the vnode if the operation returns a callback. The callback
interest is passed through to afs_iget() also so that it can be set
there too.
In general, record updating is done on an as-needed basis when we try to
access servers, volumes or vnodes rather than offloading it to work items
and special threads.
Notes:
(1) Pre AFS-3.4 servers are no longer supported, though this can be added
back if necessary (AFS-3.4 was released in 1998).
(2) VBUSY is retried forever for the moment at intervals of 1s.
(3) /proc/fs/afs/<cell>/servers no longer exists.

Add an RCU replaceable address list structure to hold a list of server
addresses. The list also holds the
To this end:
(1) A cell's VL server address list can be loaded directly via insmod or
echo to /proc/fs/afs/cells or dynamically from a DNS query for AFSDB
or SRV records.
(2) Anyone wanting to use a cell's VL server address must wait until the
cell record comes online and has tried to obtain some addresses.
(3) An FS server's address list, for the moment, has a single entry that
is the key to the server list. This will change in the future when a
server is instead keyed on its UUID and the VL.GetAddrsU operation is
used.
(4) An 'address cursor' concept is introduced to handle iteration through
the address list. This is passed to the afs_make_call() as, in the
future, stuff (such as abort code) that doesn't outlast the call will
be returned in it.
In the future, we might want to annotate the list with information about
how each address fares. We might then want to propagate such annotations
over address list replacement.
Whilst we're at it, we allow IPv6 addresses to be specified in
colon-delimited lists by enclosing them in square brackets.

Overhaul the way that the in-kernel AFS client keeps track of cells in the
following manner:
(1) Cells are now held in an rbtree to make walking them quicker and RCU
managed (though this is probably overkill).
(2) Cells now have a manager work item that:
(A) Looks after fetching and refreshing the VL server list.
(B) Manages cell record lifetime, including initialising and
destruction.
(B) Manages cell record caching whereby threads are kept around for a
certain time after last use and then destroyed.
(C) Manages the FS-Cache index cookie for a cell. It is not permitted
for a cookie to be in use twice, so we have to be careful to not
allow a new cell record to exist at the same time as an old record
of the same name.
(3) Each AFS network namespace is given a manager work item that manages
the cells within it, maintaining a single timer to prod cells into
updating their DNS records.
This uses the reduce_timer() facility to make the timer expire at the
soonest timed event that needs happening.
(4) When a module is being unloaded, cells and cell managers are now
counted out using dec_after_work() to make sure the module text is
pinned until after the data structures have been cleaned up.
(5) Each cell's VL server list is now protected by a seqlock rather than a
semaphore.
