Problem:
Just after replace-brick the mount logs are filled with ENOENT/ESTALE
warning logs because the file is yet to be self-healed now that the
brick is new.

Fix:
Do conditional logging for the logs. ENOENT/ESTALE will be logged at
lower log level. Only when debug logs are enabled, these logs will
be written to the logfile.

<title>Fix resolution issues across fuse/server/afr</title>

Problems with fuse/server:
Fuse loc touch up sets loc-&gt;name even when pargfid
is not known. Server lookup does (pargfid, name) based
lookup when name is set ignoring the gfid. Because of this server
resolver finds that the lookup came on (null-pargfid, name) and
fails the lookup with EINVAL.

Fix:
Don't set loc-&gt;name in loc_touchup if the pargfid is not known.
Did the same even for server-resolver

Problem with afr:
Lets say there is a directory hierarchy a/b/c/d on the mount and the
user is cd'ed into the directory. Bring down one of the bricks of replica and
remove all directories/files to simulate disk replacement on that brick. Now
this brick is brought back up. Creates on the cd'ed directory fail with ESTALE.
Basically before sending a create of 'f' inside 'd', fuse sends a lookup to
make sure the file is not present.  On one of the bricks  'd' is present and
'f' is not so it sends ENOENT as response. On the new brick 'd' itself is not
present. So it sends ESTALE. In afr ESTALE is considered to be special errno on
witnessing which lookup has to fail. And ESTALE is given more priority than
ENOENT. Due to these reasons lookup fails with ESTALE rather than ENOENT. Since
lookup didn't fail with ENOENT, 'create' can't be issued so the command is
failed with ESTALE.

Solution:
Afr needs to consider ESTALE errno normally and ENOENT needs to
be given more priority so that operations like create can proceed even when
only one of the brick is up and running. Whenever client xlator identifies
that gfid-changed, it sets that information in lookup xdata. Afr uses this
information to fail the lookup with ESTALE so that top xlator can send
fresh lookup.

<title>glusterd: Ping timer implmentation</title>

<content type='text'>
This patch refactors the existing client ping timer implementation, and makes
use of the common code for implementing both client ping timer and the
glusterd ping timer.

A new gluster rpc program for ping is introduced. The ping timer is only
started for peers that have this new program. The deafult glusterd ping
timeout is 30 seconds. It is configurable by setting the option
'ping-timeout' in glusterd.vol .

Also, this patch introduces changes in the glusterd-handshake path. The client
programs for a peer are now set in the callback of dump_versions, for both
the older handshake and the newer op-version handshake. This is the only place
in the handshake process where we know what programs a peer supports.

When clients refer to a GFID which does not exist, the errno to
be returned in ESTALE (and not ENOENT). Even though ENOENT might
look "proper" most of the time, as the application eventually expects
ENOENT even if a parent directory does not exist, not returning
ESTALE results in resolvers (FUSE and GFAPI) to not retry resolution
in uncached mode. This can result in spurious ENOENTs during
concurrent path modification operations.

<title>glusterfs: zerofill support</title>

<id>c8fef37c5d566c906728b5f6f27baaa9a8d2a20d</id>
<content type='text'>
Add support for a new ZEROFILL fop. Zerofill writes zeroes to a file in
the specified range. This fop will be useful when a whole file needs to
be initialized with zero (could be useful for zero filled VM disk image
provisioning or  during scrubbing of VM disk images).

Client/application can issue this FOP for zeroing out. Gluster server
will zero out required range of bytes ie server offloaded zeroing. In
the absence of this fop,  client/application has to repetitively issue
write (zero) fop to the server, which is very inefficient method because
of the overheads involved in RPC calls  and acknowledgements.

WRITESAME is a  SCSI T10 command that takes a block of data as input and
writes the same data to other blocks and this write is handled
completely within the storage and hence is known as offload . Linux ,now
has support for SCSI WRITESAME command which is exposed to the user in
the form of BLKZEROOUT ioctl.  BD Xlator can exploit BLKZEROOUT ioctl to
implement this fop. Thus zeroing out operations can be completely
offloaded to the storage device , making it highly efficient.

The fop takes two arguments offset and size. It zeroes out 'size' number
of bytes in an opened file starting from 'offset' position.

This patch adds zerofill support to the following areas:
	- libglusterfs
	- io-stats
	- performance/md-cache,open-behind
	- quota
	- cluster/afr,dht,stripe
	- rpc/xdr
	- protocol/client,server
	- io-threads
	- marker
	- storage/posix
	- libgfapi

Client applications can exloit this fop by using glfs_zerofill introduced in
libgfapi.FUSE support to this fop has not been added as there is no system call
for this fop.

Changes from previous version 3:
* Removed redundant memory failure log messages

Changes from previous version 2:
* Rebased and fixed build error

Changes from previous version 1:
* Rebased for latest master

TODO :
     * Add zerofill support to trace xlator
     * Expose zerofill capability as part of gluster volume info

Here is a performance comparison of server offloaded zeofill vs zeroing
out using repeated writes.

[root@llmvm02 remote]# time ./offloaded aakash-test log 20

real	3m34.155s
user	0m0.018s
sys	0m0.040s
[root@llmvm02 remote]# time ./manually aakash-test log 20

real	4m23.043s
user	0m2.197s
sys	0m14.457s
[root@llmvm02 remote]# time ./offloaded aakash-test log 25;

real	4m28.363s
user	0m0.021s
sys	0m0.025s
[root@llmvm02 remote]# time ./manually aakash-test log 25

real	5m34.278s
user	0m2.957s
sys	0m18.808s

The argument log is a file which we want to set for logging purpose and
the third argument is size in GB .

As we can see there is a performance improvement of around 20% with this
fop.

Client applications can exloit this fop by using glfs_zerofill introduced in
libgfapi.FUSE support to this fop has not been added as there is no system call
for this fop.

Changes from previous version 3:
* Removed redundant memory failure log messages

Changes from previous version 2:
* Rebased and fixed build error

Changes from previous version 1:
* Rebased for latest master

TODO :
     * Add zerofill support to trace xlator
     * Expose zerofill capability as part of gluster volume info

Here is a performance comparison of server offloaded zeofill vs zeroing
out using repeated writes.

[root@llmvm02 remote]# time ./offloaded aakash-test log 20

real	3m34.155s
user	0m0.018s
sys	0m0.040s
[root@llmvm02 remote]# time ./manually aakash-test log 20

real	4m23.043s
user	0m2.197s
sys	0m14.457s
[root@llmvm02 remote]# time ./offloaded aakash-test log 25;

real	4m28.363s
user	0m0.021s
sys	0m0.025s
[root@llmvm02 remote]# time ./manually aakash-test log 25

real	5m34.278s
user	0m2.957s
sys	0m18.808s

The argument log is a file which we want to set for logging purpose and
the third argument is size in GB .

As we can see there is a performance improvement of around 20% with this
fop.

<title>protocol/rpc: move latest added procedures to the end of the array</title>

While looking at the newly introduced procedures FALLOCATE and DISCARD,
it seems that these were added with already existing procedure numbers.
This makes the protocol incompatible with existing roll-outs.

It is very confusing when new procedures are added somewhere in the
middle of the array. This will cause the number of existing procedures
to change. It is much preferred to add new procedures at the end of the
array. This changes not only corrects the enum that generates the
procedure numbers, but also the ordering in the client and server
fops-array for clarity.

Correcting this greatly simplifies adding support for these new
procedures in Wireshark and will prevent confusion to the people reading
network traces (with or without Wireshark).

<title>glusterfs: discard (hole punch) support</title>

Add support for the DISCARD file operation. Discard punches a hole
in a file in the provided range. Block de-allocation is implemented
via fallocate() (as requested via fuse and passed on to the brick
fs) but a separate fop is created within gluster to emphasize the
fact that discard changes file data (the discarded region is
replaced with zeroes) and must invalidate caches where appropriate.
