fscache: Implement cookie registration Add functions to the fscache API to allow data file cookies to be acquired and relinquished by the network filesystem. It is intended that the filesystem will create such cookies per-inode under a volume. To request a cookie, the filesystem should call: struct fscache_cookie * fscache_acquire_cookie(struct fscache_volume *volume, u8 advice, const void *index_key, size_t index_key_len, const void *aux_data, size_t aux_data_len, loff_t object_size) The filesystem must first have created a volume cookie, which is passed in here. If it passes in NULL then the function will just return a NULL cookie. A binary key should be passed in index_key and is of size index_key_len. This is saved in the cookie and is used to locate the associated data in the cache. A coherency data buffer of size aux_data_len will be allocated and initialised from the buffer pointed to by aux_data. This is used to validate cache objects when they're opened and is stored on disk with them when they're committed. The data is stored in the cookie and will be updateable by various functions in later patches. The object_size must also be given. This is also used to perform a coherency check and to size the backing storage appropriately. This function disallows a cookie from being acquired twice in parallel, though it will cause the second user to wait if the first is busy relinquishing its cookie. When a network filesystem has finished with a cookie, it should call: void fscache_relinquish_cookie(struct fscache_volume *volume, bool retire) If retire is true, any backing data will be discarded immediately. Changes ======= ver #3: - fscache_hash()'s size parameter is now in bytes. Use __le32 as the unit to round up to. - When comparing cookies, simply see if the attributes are the same rather than subtracting them to produce a strcmp-style return[1]. - Add a check to see if the cookie is still hashed at the point of freeing. ver #2: - Don't hold n_accesses elevated whilst cache is bound to a cookie, but rather add a flag that prevents the state machine from being queued when n_accesses reaches 0. - Remove the unused cookie pointer field from the fscache_acquire tracepoint.

fscache: Implement volume registration Add functions to the fscache API to allow volumes to be acquired and relinquished by the network filesystem. A volume is an index of data storage cache objects. A volume is represented by a volume cookie in the API. A filesystem would typically create a volume for a superblock and then create per-inode cookies within it. To request a volume, the filesystem calls: struct fscache_volume * fscache_acquire_volume(const char *volume_key, const char *cache_name, const void *coherency_data, size_t coherency_len) The volume_key is a printable string used to match the volume in the cache. It should not contain any '/' characters. For AFS, for example, this would be "afs,<cellname>,<volume_id>", e.g. "afs,example.com,523001". The cache_name can be NULL, but if not it should be a string indicating the name of the cache to use if there's more than one available. The coherency data, if given, is an arbitrarily-sized blob that's attached to the volume and is compared when the volume is looked up. If it doesn't match, the old volume is judged to be out of date and it and everything within it is discarded. Acquiring a volume twice concurrently is disallowed, though the function will wait if an old volume cookie is being relinquishing. When a network filesystem has finished with a volume, it should return the volume cookie by calling: void fscache_relinquish_volume(struct fscache_volume *volume, const void *coherency_data, bool invalidate) If invalidate is true, the entire volume will be discarded; if false, the volume will be synced and the coherency data will be updated. Changes ======= ver #4: - Removed an extraneous param from kdoc on fscache_relinquish_volume()[3]. ver #3: - fscache_hash()'s size parameter is now in bytes. Use __le32 as the unit to round up to. - When comparing cookies, simply see if the attributes are the same rather than subtracting them to produce a strcmp-style return[2]. - Make the coherency data an arbitrary blob rather than a u64, but don't store it for the moment. ver #2: - Fix error check[1]. - Make a fscache_acquire_volume() return errors, including EBUSY if a conflicting volume cookie already exists. No error is printed now - that's left to the netfs.
