Scenarios tested:

* Upgrade the node when there are stripe / tiering and regular
type of volumes are present.
  - All volumes are started fine (as the change was not on brick volfile)
  - For tier, the functionality may not even work, as changetimerecorder
    is not present.
  - 'gluster volume info' properly shows as 'NOT SUPPORTED' for stripe and
    tier type of volume.

* Upgrade in a rolling upgrade scenario, where an old version is
able to connect to higher master.
  - on a normal volume, if the volfile-server was new, the newer client
    volfiles needed to have utime xlator conditionally.
  - with this one change, all other changes seem to work fine.

<title>mount/fuse: expose auto-invalidation as a mount option</title>

<id>a229ee1c8cdf8e0ac1abaeb60cabe6ab08f60546</id>
<content type='text'>
Auto invalidation is necessary when same (meta)data is shared/access
across multiple mounts. However, if (meta)data is not shared, all
relevant I/O goes through the cache of single mount and hence is
coherent with (meta)data on bricks always. So, fuse-auto-invalidation
can be disabled for this case which gives a huge performance boost for
workloads that write data and then immediately read the data they just
wrote.

From glusterfs --help,

&lt;snip&gt;
      --auto-invalidation[=BOOL]   controls whether fuse-kernel can
                             auto-invalidate attribute, dentry and page-cache.
                             Disable this only if same files/directories are
                             not accessed across two different mounts
                             concurrently [default: "on"]
&lt;/snip&gt;

Details on how disabling auto-invalidation helped to reduce pgbench
init times can be found at [1]. Time taken for pgbench init of scale
8000 was 8340s. That will be an improvement of 86% (59280s vs 8340s)
with auto-invalidations turned off along with other
optimizations. Just disabling auto-invalidation contributed 56%
improvement by reducing the total time taken by 33260s.

<id>4674678951a1315975d66016fb55c49100b7819f</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch creates a specific function to set the thread name using a
string format and a variable argument list, like printf().

This function is used to set the thread name from gf_thread_create(),
which now accepts a variable argument list to create the full name. It's
not necessary anymore to use a local array to build the name of the
thread. This is done automatically.

A call to gf_backtrace_save() was done on each context switch of a
synctask. The backtrace is generated writing to the filesystem, so it
can have an important impact on latency.

The generated backtrace was not used anywhere, so it's been removed.

Problem: When rpc-transport-disconnect happens, server_connection_cleanup_flush_cbk() 
         is supposed to call rpc_transport_unref() after open-files on 
         that transport are flushed per transport.But open-fd-count is 
         maintained in bound_xl-&gt;fd_count, which can be incremented/decremented 
         cumulatively in server_connection_cleanup() by all transport 
         disconnect paths. So instead of rpc_transport_unref() happening 
         per transport, it ends up doing it only once after all the files 
         on all the transports for the brick are flushed leading to 
         rpc-leaks.

Solution: To avoid races maintain fd_cnt at client instead of maintaining
          on brick

Mostly, unlock before logging.
In some cases, moved different code that was not needed
to be under lock (for example, taking time, or malloc'ing)
to be executed before taking the lock.

Note: logging might be slightly less accurate in order, since it may
not be done now under the lock, so order of logs is racy. I think
it's a reasonable compromise.

Compile-tested only!

<title>socket: fix issue on concurrent handle of a socket</title>

Found an issue on concurrent invoke of event handler to the same socket
fd, causing memory corruption. This issue arises after applying commit
"socket: Remove redundant in_lock in incoming message handling" that
removes priv-&gt;in_lock to serialize socket read.

The following call sequence describes how concurrent socket event handle
happens.
   thread 1                    thread 2                thread 3
epoll_wait() return
(slot-&gt;in_handler is 0)  call select_on_epoll()
                         and epoll_ctl() on fd
                                                    epoll_wait() return
slot-&gt;in_handler++
(slot-&gt;in_handler is 1)
                                                    slot-&gt;in_handler++
                                                    (slot-&gt;in_handler is 2)
call handler()                                      call handler()

Fix this issue by skip invoke of handler if there is already a handler
inprogress.

We had only changed the log level to DEBUG in release branch earlier.
But considering 90%+ of our deployments happen in same env, we can look
at these specific logs on need basis. With this change, the master
branch will be easier to debug with lesser logs.
