When querying we will order the query result to get
the hotest or the coldest files in the queried list
so that these files are migrated first.

Now here we are giving priority to the write heat(time and counters),
as it requires complex queries to have a composite
ordering of write and read + it has it impact on performance.

2. Removed recording of file path in the db. Trimming database columns.
   Path need not be stored in the db, as PARGFID, GFID, Basename is suffice
   to derive the path during migration.

syscalls that have crept in (or were missed) in the previous
patches.

various xlators and other components are invoking system calls
directly instead of using the libglusterfs/syscall.[ch] wrappers.

If not using the system call wrappers there should be a comment
in the source explaining why the wrapper isn't used.

<title>tier/ctr: Ignore CTR Lookup heal insert errors</title>

<content type='text'>
CTR doesnt read from the DB, so to make sure that file records are
created it does a heal during a lookup. It remembers the decision in
the inode context cache and retrys periodically. When the volume is
restarted it looses all the inode cache from the previous time and CTR
lookup heals tries the heal again, but this time it finds that the records
are already there from sql and logs this error, and remembers this until the
volume is restarted or inode is flushed out of inode cache of the brick.

Solution: the log levels should be reduced to trace for this case and
customers need not see this.

<title>tier/libgfdb: Replacing ASCII query file with binary</title>

<content type='text'>
Earlier, when the database was queried we used to save
all the queried records in an ASCII format in the query file.
This caused issues like filename having ASCII delimiter and used
to take a lot of space. The tier.c file also had a lot of parsing code.

Here we changed the format of the query file to binary.
All the logic of serialization and formating of query record is done
by libgfdb. Libgfdb provides API,
gfdb_write_query_record() and gfdb_read_query_record(),
which the user i.e tier migrator and CTR xlator can use to
write to and read from query file.
With this binary format we save on disk space i.e reduce to 50% atleast
as we are saving GFID's in binary format 16 bytes and not the string format
which takes 36 bytes + We are not saving path of the file + we are also saving on
ASCII delimiters.

The on disk format of query record is as follows,

+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Length of serialized query record |       Serialized Query Record         |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
             4 bytes                     Length of serialized query record

Earlier, when the database was queried we used to save
all the queried records in an ASCII format in the query file.
This caused issues like filename having ASCII delimiter and used
to take a lot of space. The tier.c file also had a lot of parsing code.

Here we changed the format of the query file to binary.

<title>tier/ctr: Solution for db locks for tier migrator and ctr using sqlite version less than 3.7 i.e rhel 6.7</title>

Problem: On RHEL 6.7, we have sqlite version 3.6.2 which doesnt support
WAL journaling mode, as this journaling mode is only available in sqlite 3.7 and above.
As a result we cannot have to progreses concurrently accessing sqlite, without
running into db locks! Well WAL is also need for performace on CTR side.

Solution: This solution is to use CTR db connection for doing queries when WAL mode is
absent. i,e tier migrator will send sync_op ipc calls to CTR, which in turn will
do the query and create/update the query file suggested by tier migrator.

Pending: Well this solution will stop the db locks but the performance is still an issue for CTR.
We are developing an in-Memory Transaction Log (iMeTaL) which will help boost the CTR
performance by doing in memory udpates on the IO path and later flush the updates to
the db in a batch/segment flush.
