* features/changelog: Remove inline keyword to avoid warnings (gcc v5.1.1)v3.7.1Anoop C S2015-06-011-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Backport of http://review.gluster.org/11004 When compiled with gcc5, following warnings were displayed and volume start failed: changelog-helpers.h:499:1: warning: inline function 'changelog_dispatch_event' declared but never defined changelog_dispatch_event (xlator_t *, changelog_priv_t *, changelog_event_t *); gf-changelog-journal-handler.c:692:17: warning: 'list_add_tail' is static but used in inline function 'gf_changelog_queue_journal' which is not static list_add_tail (&entry->list, &jnl_proc->entries); Fix is to remove the keyword from function prototype and definitions.

* rpc: Maintain separate xlator pointer in 'rpcsvc_state'Kotresh HR2015-05-051-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The structure 'rpcsvc_state', which maintains rpc server state had no separate pointer to track the translator. It was using the mydata pointer itself. So callers were forced to send xlator pointer as mydata which is opaque (void pointer) by function prototype. 'rpcsvc_register_init' is setting svc->mydata with xlator pointer. 'rpcsvc_register_notify' is overwriting svc->mydata with mydata pointer. And rpc interprets svc->mydata as xlator pointer internally. If someone passes non xlator structure pointer to rpcsvc_register_notify as libgfchangelog currently does, it might corrupt mydata. So interpreting opaque mydata as xlator pointer is incorrect as it is caller's choice to send mydata as any type of data to 'rpcsvc_register_notify'. Maintaining two different pointers in 'rpcsvc_state' for xlator and mydata solves the issue.

* features/changelog: RPC'fy {libgf}changelogVenky Shankar2015-03-181-0/+300
This patch introduces RPC based communication between the changelog translator and libgfchangelog. It replaces the old pathetic stream based interaction that existed earlier (due to time constraints :-/). Changelog, upon initialization starts a RPC server (rpcsvc) allowing clients to invoke a probe API as a bootup mechanism to request for event notifications. During probe, clients can choose an event filter specifying the type(s) of events they are interested in. As of now there is no way to change the event notification set once the probe RPC call is made, but that is easier to implement. The actual event notifications is done on a separate RPC session. The client (libgfchangelog) itself starts and RPC server which the changelog translator "connects back" during probe. Notifications are dispatched by a bunch of threads from the server (translator) and the client optionally orders them if ordered notifications are requried. FOPs fill in their respective event details in a buffer (rot-buffs to be particular) and a bunch of threads (consumers) swap the buffers out of roatation and dispatch them via RPC. To avoid writer starvation, then number of dispatcher threads is one less than the number of buffer list in rot-buffs.x libgfchangelog becomes purely callback based -- upon event notification from the server (and re-ordering them if required) invoke a callback routine specified by consumer(s). A major part of the patch is also aimed at providing backward compatibility for geo-replication, which was one of the main consumer of the stream based API. Also, this patch does not\ "turn on" event notifications for all fops, just a bunch which is currently in requirement. Another pain point is that the server does not filter events before dispatching it to the clients. That load is taken up by the client itself (although it's done at the library layer rather than making it hard on the callback implementor). This needs improvement and care needs to be taken to not load the server up with expensive filtering mechanisms.
