cluster/ec: Forced unlock when lock contention is detected
EC uses an eager lock mechanism to optimize multiple read/write requests on the same entry or inode. This increases performance but can have adverse results when other clients try to access the same entry/inode. To solve this, this patch adds a functionality to detect when this happens and force an earlier release to not block other clients. The method consists on requesting GF_GLUSTERFS_INODELK_COUNT and GF_GLUSTERFS_ENTRYLK_COUNT for all fops that take a lock. When this count is greater than one, the lock is marked to be released. All fops already waiting for this lock will be executed normally before releasing the lock, but new requests that also require it will be blocked and restarted after the lock has been released and reacquired again. Another problem was that some operations did correctly lock the parent of an entry when needed, but got the size and version xattrs from the entry instead of the parent. This patch solves this problem by binding all queries of size and version to each lock and replacing all entrylk calls by inodelk ones to remove concurrent updates on directory metadata. This also allows rename to correctly update source and destination directories.
