Change the 9p filesystem to take account of the changes to fscache's
indexing rewrite and reenable caching in 9p.
The following changes have been made:
(1) The fscache_netfs struct is no more, and there's no need to register
the filesystem as a whole.
(2) The session cookie is now an fscache_volume cookie, allocated with
fscache_acquire_volume(). That takes three parameters: a string
representing the "volume" in the index, a string naming the cache to
use (or NULL) and a u64 that conveys coherency metadata for the
volume.
For 9p, I've made it render the volume name string as:
"9p,<devname>,<cachetag>"
where the cachetag is replaced by the aname if it wasn't supplied.
This probably needs rethinking a bit as the aname can have slashes in
it. It might be better to hash the cachetag and use the hash or I
could substitute commas for the slashes or something.
(3) The fscache_cookie_def is no more and needed information is passed
directly to fscache_acquire_cookie(). The cache no longer calls back
into the filesystem, but rather metadata changes are indicated at
other times.
fscache_acquire_cookie() is passed the same keying and coherency
information as before.
(4) The functions to set/reset/flush cookies are removed and
fscache_use_cookie() and fscache_unuse_cookie() are used instead.
fscache_use_cookie() is passed a flag to indicate if the cookie is
opened for writing. fscache_unuse_cookie() is passed updates for the
metadata if we changed it (ie. if the file was opened for writing).
These are called when the file is opened or closed.
(5) wait_on_page_bit[_killable]() is replaced with the specific wait
functions for the bits waited upon.
(6) I've got rid of some of the 9p-specific cache helper functions and
called things like fscache_relinquish_cookie() directly as they'll
optimise away if v9fs_inode_cookie() returns an unconditional NULL
(which will be the case if CONFIG_9P_FSCACHE=n).
(7) v9fs_vfs_setattr() is made to call fscache_resize() to change the size
of the cache object.
Notes:
(A) We should call fscache_invalidate() if we detect that the server's
copy of a file got changed by a third party, but I don't know where to
do that. We don't need to do that when allocating the cookie as we
get a check-and-invalidate when we initially bind to the cache object.
(B) The copy-to-cache-on-writeback side of things will be handled in
separate patch.
Changes
=======
ver #3:
- Canonicalise the cookie key and coherency data to make them
endianness-independent.
ver #2:
- Use gfpflags_allow_blocking() rather than using flag directly.
- fscache_acquire_volume() now returns errors.
