[PATCH 0] rbd: layered writes

[PATCH 0] rbd: layered writes

[Alex Elder]

This set of patches culminates in providing layered
write functionality for rbd clone images.  Until the
feature bits get enabled, most of this code is not
yet activated.  But it has been tested and it's
ready for review.  The feature will be enabled soon,
after a few more things get cleaned up to prepare
for it.

[PATCH] libceph: fix two messenger bugs
    Two bugs, two improvements.

[PATCH] libceph: support pages for class request data
    This just defines a function that allows a page array
    to be specified for the data to be written by an
    object class method.

[PATCH 1/4] rbd: define separate read and write format funcs
[PATCH 2/4] rbd: encapsulate submission of image object requests
[PATCH 3/4] rbd: define zero_pages()
[PATCH 4/4] rbd: support page array image requests
    The first two of these are just cleanups.  The second two
    add some functionality to allow image requests to use
    page arrays for their object data.

[PATCH 1/2] rbd: implement full object parent reads
[PATCH 2/2] rbd: issue a copyup for layered writes
    These last two finally implement the layered copyup
    functionality.  The first is sort of a half step, to
    break up the review into smaller pieces.

[PATCH] libceph: fix two messenger bugs

[Alex Elder]

This patch makes four small changes in the ceph messenger.

While getting copyup functionality working I found two bugs in the
messenger.  Existing paths through the code did not trigger these
problems, but they're fixed here:
    - In ceph_msg_data_pagelist_cursor_init(), the cursor's
      last_piece field was being checked against the length
      supplied.  This was OK until this commit: ccba6d98 libceph:
      implement multiple data items in a message That commit changed
      the cursor init routines to allow lengths to be supplied that
      exceeded the size of the current data item. Because of this,
      we have to use the assigned cursor resid field rather than the
      provided length in determining whether the cursor points to
      the last piece of a data item.
    - In ceph_msg_data_add_pages(), a BUG_ON() was erroneously
      catching attempts to add page data to a message if the message
      already had data assigned to it. That was OK until that same
      commit, at which point it was fine for messages to have
      multiple data items. It slipped through because that BUG_ON()
      call was present twice in that function. (You can never be too
      careful.)

In addition two other minor things are changed:
    - In ceph_msg_data_cursor_init(), the local variable "data" was
      getting assigned twice.
    - In ceph_msg_data_advance(), it was assumed that the
      type-specific advance routine would set new_piece to true
      after it advanced past the last piece. That may have been
      fine, but since we check for that case we might as well set it
      explicitly in ceph_msg_data_advance().

This resolves:

[PATCH 2/4] rbd: encapsulate submission of image object requests

[Alex Elder]

Object requests that are part of an image request are subject to
some additional handling.  Define rbd_img_obj_request_submit() to
encapsulate that, and use it when initially submitting an image
object request, and when re-submitting it during callback of
an object existence check.

[PATCH 3/4] rbd: define zero_pages()

[Alex Elder]

Define a new function zero_pages() that zeroes a range of memory
defined by a page array, along the lines of zero_bio_chain().  It
saves and the irq flags like bvec_kmap_irq() does, though I'm not
sure at this point that it's necessary.

Update rbd_img_obj_request_read_callback() to use the new function
if the object request contains page rather than bio data.

For the moment, only bio data is used for osd READ ops.

It doesn't seem necessary to me. I don't see anything else doing
an irq save+restore around a k(un)map_atomic.

Other than that, looks good.

I'm going to leave it in for now.  I also wonder whether
I need I need a flush_dcache_page() in there before the
unmap.  For x86 CPUs it's moot but for portability I'd
like to do it right while the code is fresh in mind.

[PATCH 4/4] rbd: support page array image requests

[Alex Elder]

This patch adds the ability to build an image request whose data
will be written from or read into memory described by a page array.
(Previously only bio lists were supported.)

Originally this was going to define a new function for this purpose
but it was largely identical to the rbd_img_request_fill_bio().  So
instead, rbd_img_request_fill_bio() has been generalized to handle
both types of image request.

For the moment we still only fill image requests with bio data.

[PATCH 1/2] rbd: implement full object parent reads

[Alex Elder]

As a step toward implementing layered writes, implement reading the
data for a target object from the parent image for a write request
whose target object is known to not exist.  Add a copyup_pages field
to an image request to track the page array used (only) for such a
request.

[PATCH 2/2] rbd: issue a copyup for layered writes

[Alex Elder]

This implements the main copyup functionality for layered writes.

Here we add a copyup_pages field to the object request, which is
used only for copyup requests to keep track of the page array
containing data read from the parent image.

A copyup request is the only request rbd has that requires two osd
operations.  Because of this we handle copyup specially.  All image
object requests get an osd request allocated when they are created.
For a write request, if a copyup is copyup is required, the osd
request origainlly allocated is released, and a new one (with room
for two osd ops) is allocated to replace it.  A new function
rbd_osd_req_create_copyup() allocates an osd request suitable for
a copyup request.

The first op is then filled with a copyup object class method call,
supplying the array of pages containing data read from the parent.
The second op is filled in with the original write request.

The original request otherwise remains intact, and it describes the
original write request (found in the second osd op).  The presence
of the copyup op is sort of implicit; a non-null copyup_pages field
could be used to distinguish between a "normal" write request and a
request containing both a copyup call and a write.

This resolves:
