* gfapi: async fops should unref in callbacksRaghavendra Talur2016-11-051-0/+26
If fd is unref'd at the end of async call then the unref in cbks would lead to double unref and possible crash. Removing duplicate unrefs. Added unref only in failure cases. A simple test case has been added to test async write case. Need to extend the same for other async APIs too. Details: All glfd based calls in libgfapi, except for glfs_open and glfs_close, behave in the same way. At the start of the operation, they take a ref on glfd and fd. At the end of the operation, they unref it. Async calls are a little different as they unref in the cbk function. A successfull open call does not unref either the glfd or fd, thereby functioning as a reference for a OPEN file object. glfs_close makes a syncop_flush call sandwiched between a fd ref and unref(this can be removed, more on this below), followed by a call to glfs_mark_glfd_for_deletion which unrefs glfd and also calls glfs_fd_destroy as a release function thereby doing a unref on fd too. Functionally, there is no problem with how everything works when as described above. However, it is a little non-intuitive that we need to perform a fd_unref as a consequence of a implicit fd_ref that happens within glfs_resolve_fd. As we perform a GF_REF_GET(glfd) at the start of every operation, it would be worthwhile to remove the fd_ref that glfs_resovle_fd takes and do away with explicit fd_unref()s at the end of every operation. This is the same reason why we don't need the fd_ref in glfs_close. This is however not in the scope of this patch.
