    char *dynstr = gf_strdup (str);

<content type='text'>
* Two stages of quota enforcement is done:

  Soft and hard quota Upon reaching soft quota limit on the directory
  it logs/alerts in the quota daemon log (ie DEFAULT_LOG_DIR/quotad.log)
  and no more writes allowed after hard
  quota limit. After reaching the soft-limit the daemon alerts the
  user/admin repeatively for every 'alert-time', which is
  configurable.

* Quota enforcer is moved to server-side.

  It  takes care of enforcing quota. Since enforcer doesn't have the
  cluster view, it relies on another service called
  quota-aggregator. Aggregator, on query can return the size of a
  directory based on the cluster view.

  Enforcer is always loaded in the server graph and is by passed if
  the feature is not enabled.

  Options specific to enforcer:

  server-quota - Specifies whether the feature is on/off. It is used
  to by pass the quota if turned off.

  deem-statfs - If set to on, it takes quota limits into consideration
  while estimating fs size. (df command). The algorithm followed is,
  i.   Adjust statvfs based on limit configured on root.
  ii.  If limit is set on the inode passed, use size/limits on that inode to
       populate statvfs. Otherwise, use size/limits configured on root.
  iii. Upon statvfs, update the ctx-&gt;size on the inode.
  iv.  Don't let DHT aggregate, instead take the maximum of the usages from the
       subvols of the DHT, since each of it contains the complete information.

  Enforcer also makes use of gfid-to-path conversion functionality to
  work correctly when a client like nfs predominently relies on
  nameless lookups.

* Quota Aggregator acts as a thin client to provide cluster view

  Its a lightweight *gluster client* process with no mount point,
  started upon enabling quota or restarting the volume. This is a
  single process run on each brick, which can answer queries on all
  volumes in the cluster. Its volfile stored in
  GLUSTERD_DEFAULT_WORKING_DIR/quotad/quotad.vol.

<title>glusterd: Introduce volume op-versions</title>

<id>915385553e46d65e0b91ce62066a5575b07ee44d</id>
<content type='text'>
Each volume is now associated with two op-versions,
 * op_version - the op-version of the highest op-versioned feature enabled
 * client_op_version - the op-version of the highest op-versioned feature
   enabled which affects the clients only.

These two op-versions are generated dynamically and kept updated during
runtime. Glusterd now uses the respective volumes' client-op-version during
getspec requests.

To achieve the above a new field in the vme table is introduced,
client_option, this boolean field tells if the option is a client side
option.

<title>calls to dict_allocate_and_serialize() are not 64-bit clean</title>

<id>08745892b4edd34296bfa5f2f4967329515346fb</id>
<content type='text'>
All calls to dict_allocate_and_serialize() pass the address of a 32-bit
type, but must cast it to the 64-bit pointer type (size_t *).

This happens to work on LE machines, but even if it's apparently benign,
it's still a bug. On BE machines it is not benign.

GF_PROTOCOL_DICT_SERIALIZE() hacks around it by creating a size_t temp
var, but that's, well, a hack, IMO when you consider that all the callers
are actually passing &amp;&lt;u_int&gt;; the param should just be a u_int * and
eliminate the buggy casts and the temp var in the macro.

Nobody apparently uses the Fedora/EPEL PPC RPMs, but they might. People
are trying to build gluster.org bits on SPARC and tripping over this.

All calls to dict_allocate_and_serialize() pass the address of a 32-bit
type, but must cast it to the 64-bit pointer type (size_t *).

This happens to work on LE machines, but even if it's apparently benign,
it's still a bug. On BE machines it is not benign.

GF_PROTOCOL_DICT_SERIALIZE() hacks around it by creating a size_t temp
var, but that's, well, a hack, IMO when you consider that all the callers
are actually passing &amp;&lt;u_int&gt;; the param should just be a u_int * and
eliminate the buggy casts and the temp var in the macro.

Nobody apparently uses the Fedora/EPEL PPC RPMs, but they might. People
are trying to build gluster.org bits on SPARC and tripping over this.

As dicts get used more and more in the I/O path (especially for xattrs and
the new xdata feature), removing some of their inherent inefficiency
becomes more important.  This patch addresses some of the issues around
allocating data_pair_t structures separately.  Along the way, I found that
the way we're allocating the "members" hash table was subtly wrong, and
could lead to a memory overrun.  This is a latent bug because nobody uses
dict_get_new_full that way, but I added an assert to guard against that
possibility.  One beneficial side effect is that we now save four pointers'
worth of space per dict, offsetting the extra space used for the new
members.
