<content type='text'>
Fix afs_do_lookup()'s fallback case for when FS.InlineBulkStatus isn't
supported by the server.

In the fallback, it calls FS.FetchStatus for the specific vnode it's
meant to be looking up.  Commit b6489a49f7b7 broke this by renaming one
of the two identically-named afs_fetch_status_operation descriptors to
something else so that one of them could be made non-static.  The site
that used the renamed one, however, wasn't renamed and didn't produce
any warning because the other was declared in a header.

Fix this by making afs_do_lookup() use the renamed variant.

Note that there are two variants of the success method because one is
called from -&gt;lookup() where we may or may not have an inode, but can't
call iget until after we've talked to the server - whereas the other is
called from within iget where we have an inode, but it may or may not be
initialised.

The latter variant expects there to be an inode, but because it's being
called from there former case, there might not be - resulting in an oops
like the following:

  BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 00000000000000b0

<id>urn:sha1:b6489a49f7b71964e37978d6f89bbdbdb263f6f5</id>
<content type='text'>
Fix AFS's silly rename by the following means:

 (1) Set the destination directory in afs_do_silly_rename() so as to avoid
     misbehaviour and indicate that the directory data version will
     increment by 1 so as to avoid warnings about unexpected changes in the
     DV.  Also indicate that the ctime should be updated to avoid xfstest
     grumbling.

 (2) Note when the server indicates that a directory changed more than we
     expected (AFS_OPERATION_DIR_CONFLICT), indicating a conflict with a
     third party change, checking on successful completion of unlink and
     rename.

     The problem is that the FS.RemoveFile RPC op doesn't report the status
     of the unlinked file, though YFS.RemoveFile2 does.  This can be
     mitigated by the assumption that if the directory DV cranked by
     exactly 1, we can be sure we removed one link from the file; further,
     ordinarily in AFS, files cannot be hardlinked across directories, so
     if we reduce nlink to 0, the file is deleted.

     However, if the directory DV jumps by more than 1, we cannot know if a
     third party intervened by adding or removing a link on the file we
     just removed a link from.

     The same also goes for any vnode that is at the destination of the
     FS.Rename RPC op.

 (3) Make afs_vnode_commit_status() apply the nlink drop inside the cb_lock
     section along with the other attribute updates if -&gt;op_unlinked is set
     on the descriptor for the appropriate vnode.

 (4) Issue a follow up status fetch to the unlinked file in the event of a
     third party conflict that makes it impossible for us to know if we
     actually deleted the file or not.

 (5) Provide a flag, AFS_VNODE_SILLY_DELETED, to make afs_getattr() lie to
     the user about the nlink of a silly deleted file so that it appears as
     0, not 1.

Found with the generic/035 and generic/084 xfstests.

afs_check_for_remote_deletion() checks to see if error ENOENT is returned
by the server in response to an operation and, if so, marks the primary
vnode as having been deleted as the FID is no longer valid.

However, it's being called from the operation success functions, where no
abort has happened - and if an inline abort is recorded, it's handled by
afs_vnode_commit_status().

Fix this by actually calling the operation aborted method if provided and
having that point to afs_check_for_remote_deletion().

The in-kernel afs filesystem ignores ctime because the AFS fileserver
protocol doesn't support ctimes.  This, however, causes various xfstests to
fail.

Work around this by:

 (1) Setting ctime to attr-&gt;ia_ctime in afs_setattr().

 (2) Not ignoring ATTR_MTIME_SET, ATTR_TIMES_SET and ATTR_TOUCH settings.

 (3) Setting the ctime from the server mtime when on the target file when
     creating a hard link to it.

 (4) Setting the ctime on directories from their revised mtimes when
     renaming/moving a file.

Found by the generic/221 and generic/309 xfstests.

<title>afs: Reorganise volume and server trees to be rooted on the cell</title>

<id>urn:sha1:20325960f8750165964a6891a733e4cc15d19076</id>
<content type='text'>
Reorganise afs_volume objects such that they're in a tree keyed on volume
ID, rooted at on an afs_cell object rather than being in multiple trees,
each of which is rooted on an afs_server object.

afs_server structs become per-cell and acquire a pointer to the cell.

The process of breaking a callback then starts with finding the server by
its network address, following that to the cell and then looking up each
volume ID in the volume tree.

This is simpler than the afs_vol_interest/afs_cb_interest N:M mapping web
and allows those structs and the code for maintaining them to be simplified
or removed.

It does make a couple of things a bit more tricky, though:

 (1) Operations now start with a volume, not a server, so there can be more
     than one answer as to whether or not the server we'll end up using
     supports the FS.InlineBulkStatus RPC.

 (2) CB RPC operations that specify the server UUID.  There's still a tree
     of servers by UUID on the afs_net struct, but the UUIDs in it aren't
     guaranteed unique.

<id>urn:sha1:e49c7b2f6de7ff81ca34c56e4eeb4fa740c099f2</id>
<content type='text'>
Turn the afs_operation struct into the main way that most fileserver
operations are managed.  Various things are added to the struct, including
the following:

 (1) All the parameters and results of the relevant operations are moved
     into it, removing corresponding fields from the afs_call struct.
     afs_call gets a pointer to the op.

 (2) The target volume is made the main focus of the operation, rather than
     the target vnode(s), and a bunch of op-&gt;vnode-&gt;volume are made
     op-&gt;volume instead.

 (3) Two vnode records are defined (op-&gt;file[]) for the vnode(s) involved
     in most operations.  The vnode record (struct afs_vnode_param)
     contains:

	- The vnode pointer.

	- The fid of the vnode to be included in the parameters or that was
          returned in the reply (eg. FS.MakeDir).

	- The status and callback information that may be returned in the
     	  reply about the vnode.

	- Callback break and data version tracking for detecting
          simultaneous third-parth changes.

 (4) Pointers to dentries to be updated with new inodes.

 (5) An operations table pointer.  The table includes pointers to functions
     for issuing AFS and YFS-variant RPCs, handling the success and abort
     of an operation and handling post-I/O-lock local editing of a
     directory.

To make this work, the following function restructuring is made:

 (A) The rotation loop that issues calls to fileservers that can be found
     in each function that wants to issue an RPC (such as afs_mkdir()) is
     extracted out into common code, in a new file called fs_operation.c.

 (B) The rotation loops, such as the one in afs_mkdir(), are replaced with
     a much smaller piece of code that allocates an operation, sets the
     parameters and then calls out to the common code to do the actual
     work.

 (C) The code for handling the success and failure of an operation are
     moved into operation functions (as (5) above) and these are called
     from the core code at appropriate times.

 (D) The pseudo inode getting stuff used by the dynamic root code is moved
     over into dynroot.c.

 (E) struct afs_iget_data is absorbed into the operation struct and
     afs_iget() expects to be given an op pointer and a vnode record.

 (F) Point (E) doesn't work for the root dir of a volume, but we know the
     FID in advance (it's always vnode 1, unique 1), so a separate inode
     getter, afs_root_iget(), is provided to special-case that.

 (G) The inode status init/update functions now also take an op and a vnode
     record.

 (H) The RPC marshalling functions now, for the most part, just take an
     afs_operation struct as their only argument.  All the data they need
     is held there.  The result delivery functions write their answers
     there as well.

 (I) The call is attached to the operation and then the operation core does
     the waiting.

And then the new operation code is, for the moment, made to just initialise
the operation, get the appropriate vnode I/O locks and do the same rotation
loop as before.

This lays the foundation for the following changes in the future:

 (*) Overhauling the rotation (again).

 (*) Support for asynchronous I/O, where the fileserver rotation must be
     done asynchronously also.

<content type='text'>
When a lookup is done in an AFS directory, the filesystem will speculate
and fetch up to 49 other statuses for files in the same directory and fetch
those as well, turning them into inodes or updating inodes that already
exist.

However, occasionally, a callback break might go missing due to NAT timing
out, but the afs filesystem doesn't then realise that the directory is not
up to date.

Alleviate this by using one of the status slots to check the directory in
which the lookup is being done.
