<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 62575e270f661aba64778cbc5f354511cf9abb21 ]

Some messages sent by the MDS entail a session sequence number
increment, and the MDS will drop certain types of requests on the floor
when the sequence numbers don't match.

In particular, a REQUEST_CLOSE message can cross with one of the
sequence morphing messages from the MDS which can cause the client to
stall, waiting for a response that will never come.

Originally, this meant an up to 5s delay before the recurring workqueue
job kicked in and resent the request, but a recent change made it so
that the client would never resend, causing a 60s stall unmounting and
sometimes a blockisting event.

Add a new helper for incrementing the session sequence and then testing
to see whether a REQUEST_CLOSE needs to be resent, and move the handling
of CEPH_MDS_SESSION_CLOSING into that function. Change all of the
bare sequence counter increments to use the new helper.

Reorganize check_session_state with a switch statement.  It should no
longer be called when the session is CLOSING, so throw a warning if it
ever is (but still handle that case sanely).

<title>ceph: fix inode number handling on arches with 32-bit ino_t</title>

<id>urn:sha1:ebce3eb2f7ef9f6ef01a60874ebd232450107c9a</id>
<content type='text'>
Tuan and Ulrich mentioned that they were hitting a problem on s390x,
which has a 32-bit ino_t value, even though it's a 64-bit arch (for
historical reasons).

I think the current handling of inode numbers in the ceph driver is
wrong. It tries to use 32-bit inode numbers on 32-bit arches, but that's
actually not a problem. 32-bit arches can deal with 64-bit inode numbers
just fine when userland code is compiled with LFS support (the common
case these days).

What we really want to do is just use 64-bit numbers everywhere, unless
someone has mounted with the ino32 mount option. In that case, we want
to ensure that we hash the inode number down to something that will fit
in 32 bits before presenting the value to userland.

Add new helper functions that do this, and only do the conversion before
presenting these values to userland in getattr and readdir.

The inode table hashvalue is changed to just cast the inode number to
unsigned long, as low-order bits are the most likely to vary anyway.

While it's not strictly required, we do want to put something in
inode-&gt;i_ino. Instead of basing it on BITS_PER_LONG, however, base it on
the size of the ino_t type.

NOTE: This is a user-visible change on 32-bit arches:

1/ inode numbers will be seen to have changed between kernel versions.
   32-bit arches will see large inode numbers now instead of the hashed
   ones they saw before.

2/ any really old software not built with LFS support may start failing
   stat() calls with -EOVERFLOW on inode numbers &gt;2^32. Nothing much we
   can do about these, but hopefully the intersection of people running
   such code on ceph will be very small.

The workaround for both problems is to mount with "-o ino32".

Make this loop look a bit more sane. Also optimize away the spinlock
release/reacquire if we can't get an inode reference.

It make no sense to check the caps when reconnecting to mds. And
for the async dirop caps, they will be put by its _cb() function,
so when releasing the requests, it will make no sense too.

<title>ceph: ceph_kick_flushing_caps needs the s_mutex</title>

<content type='text'>
The mdsc-&gt;cap_dirty_lock is not held while walking the list in
ceph_kick_flushing_caps, which is not safe.

ceph_early_kick_flushing_caps does something similar, but the
s_mutex is held while it's called and I think that guards against
changes to the list.

Ensure we hold the s_mutex when calling ceph_kick_flushing_caps,
and add some clarifying comments.

<title>ceph: request expedited service on session's last cap flush</title>

<id>urn:sha1:d67c72e6cce99eab5ab9d62c599e33e5141ff8b4</id>
<content type='text'>
When flushing a lot of caps to the MDS's at once (e.g. for syncfs),
we can end up waiting a substantial amount of time for MDS replies, due
to the fact that it may delay some of them so that it can batch them up
together in a single journal transaction. This can lead to stalls when
calling sync or syncfs.

What we'd really like to do is request expedited service on the _last_
cap we're flushing back to the server. If the CHECK_CAPS_FLUSH flag is
set on the request and the current inode was the last one on the
session-&gt;s_cap_dirty list, then mark the request with
CEPH_CLIENT_CAPS_SYNC.

Note that this heuristic is not perfect. New inodes can race onto the
list after we've started flushing, but it does seem to fix some common
use cases.

<title>ceph: convert mdsc-&gt;cap_dirty to a per-session list</title>

This is a per-sb list now, but that makes it difficult to tell when
the cap is the last dirty one associated with the session. Switch
this to be a per-session list, but continue using the
mdsc-&gt;cap_dirty_lock to protect the lists.

This list is only ever walked in ceph_flush_dirty_caps, so change that
to walk the sessions array and then flush the caps for inodes on each
session's list.

If the auth cap ever changes while the inode has dirty caps, then
move the inode to the appropriate session for the new auth_cap. Also,
ensure that we never remove an auth cap while the inode is still on the
s_cap_dirty list.

<title>ceph: reset i_requested_max_size if file write is not wanted</title>

write can stuck at waiting for larger max_size in following sequence of
events:

- client opens a file and writes to position 'A' (larger than unit of
  max size increment)
- client closes the file handle and updates wanted caps (not wanting
  file write caps)
- client opens and truncates the file, writes to position 'A' again.

At the 1st event, client set inode's requested_max_size to 'A'. At the
2nd event, mds removes client's writable range, but client does not reset
requested_max_size. At the 3rd event, client does not request max size
because requested_max_size is already larger than 'A'.

Nothing ensures that session will still be valid by the time we
dereference the pointer. Take and put a reference.

In principle, we should always be able to get a reference here, but
throw a warning if that's ever not the case.
