sysfs is now completely out of driver/module lifetime game. After
deletion, a sysfs node doesn't access anything outside sysfs proper,
so there's no reason to hold onto the attribute owners. Note that
often the wrong modules were accounted for as owners leading to
accessing removed modules.
This patch kills now unnecessary attribute->owner. Note that with
this change, userland holding a sysfs node does not prevent the
backing module from being unloaded.

sysfs: implement sysfs_dirent active reference and immediate disconnect
Opening a sysfs node references its associated kobject, so userland
can arbitrarily prolong lifetime of a kobject which complicates
lifetime rules in drivers. This patch implements active reference and
makes the association between kobject and sysfs immediately breakable.
Now each sysfs_dirent has two reference counts - s_count and s_active.
s_count is a regular reference count which guarantees that the
containing sysfs_dirent is accessible. As long as s_count reference
is held, all sysfs internal fields in sysfs_dirent are accessible
including s_parent and s_name.
The newly added s_active is active reference count. This is acquired
by invoking sysfs_get_active() and it's the caller's responsibility to
ensure sysfs_dirent itself is accessible (should be holding s_count
one way or the other). Dereferencing sysfs_dirent to access objects
out of sysfs proper requires active reference. This includes access
to the associated kobjects, attributes and ops.
The active references can be drained and denied by calling
sysfs_deactivate(). All active sysfs_dirents must be deactivated
after deletion but before the default reference is dropped. This
enables immediate disconnect of sysfs nodes. Once a sysfs_dirent is
deleted, it won't access any entity external to sysfs proper.
Because attr/bin_attr ops access both the node itself and its parent
for kobject, they need to hold active references to both.
sysfs_get/put_active_two() helpers are provided to help grabbing both
references. Parent's is acquired first and released last.
Unlike other operations, mmapped area lingers on after mmap() is
finished and the module implement implementing it and kobj need to
stay referenced till all the mapped pages are gone. This is
accomplished by holding one set of active references to the bin_attr
and its parent if there have been any mmap during lifetime of an
openfile. The references are dropped when the openfile is released.
This change makes sysfs lifetime rules independent from both kobject's
and module's. It not only fixes several race conditions caused by
sysfs not holding onto the proper module when referencing kobject, but
also helps fixing and simplifying lifetime management in driver model
and drivers by taking sysfs out of the equation.

sysfs symlink is implemented by referencing dentry and kobject from
sysfs_dirent - symlink entry references kobject, dentry is used to
walk the tree. This complicates object lifetimes rules and is
dangerous - for example, there is no way to tell to which module the
target of a symlink belongs and referencing that kobject can make it
linger after the module is gone.
This patch reimplements symlink using only sysfs_dirent tree. sd for
a symlink points and holds reference to the target sysfs_dirent and
all walking is done using sysfs_dirent tree. Simpler and safer.

Make sd->s_element a union of sysfs_elem_{dir|symlink|attr|bin_attr}
and rename it to s_elem. This is to achieve...
* some level of type checking : changing symlink to point to
sysfs_dirent instead of kobject is much safer and less painful now.
* easier / standardized dereferencing
* allow sysfs_elem_* to contain more than one entry
Where possible, pointer is obtained by directly deferencing from sd
instead of going through other entities. This reduces dependencies to
dentry, inode and kobject. to_attr() and to_bin_attr() are unused now

without referencing sd->s_dentry which can go away anytime if the user
doesn't control when it's deleted.
sd->s_parent is initialized and parent is referenced in
sysfs_attach_dirent(). Reference to parent is released when the sd is
released, so as long as reference to a sd is held, s_parent can be
followed.

I ran into a curious issue when a lock is being canceled. The
cancellation results in a lock request to the vfs layer instead of an
unlock request. This is particularly insidious when the process that
owns the lock is exiting. In that case, sometimes the erroneous lock is
applied AFTER the process has entered zombie state, preventing the lock
from ever being released. Eventually other processes block on the lock
causing a slow degredation of the system. In the 2.6.16 kernel this was
investigated on, the problem is compounded by the fact that the cl_sem
is held while blocking on the vfs lock, which results in most processes
accessing the nfs file system in question hanging.
In more detail, here is how the situation occurs:
first _nfs4_do_setlk():
static int _nfs4_do_setlk(struct nfs4_state *state, int cmd, struct file_lock *fl, int reclaim)
...
ret = nfs4_wait_for_completion_rpc_task(task);
if (ret == 0) {
...
} else
data->cancelled = 1;
then nfs4_lock_release():
static void nfs4_lock_release(void *calldata)
...
if (data->cancelled != 0) {
struct rpc_task *task;
task = nfs4_do_unlck(&data->fl, data->ctx, data->lsp,
data->arg.lock_seqid);
The problem is the same file_lock that was passed in to _nfs4_do_setlk()
gets passed to nfs4_do_unlck() from nfs4_lock_release(). So the type is
still F_RDLCK or FWRLCK, not F_UNLCK. At some point, when cancelling the
lock, the type needs to be changed to F_UNLCK. It seemed easiest to do
that in nfs4_do_unlck(), but it could be done in nfs4_lock_release().
The concern I had with doing it there was if something still needed the
original file_lock, though it turns out the original file_lock still
needs to be modified by nfs4_do_unlck() because nfs4_do_unlck() uses the
original file_lock to pass to the vfs layer, and a copy of the original
file_lock for the RPC request.
It seems like the simplest solution is to force all situations where
nfs4_do_unlck() is being used to result in an unlock, so with that in
mind, I made the following change:

Consider the case where the user has mounted the remote filesystem
server:/foo on the two local directories /bar and /baz using the
nosharedcache mount option. The files /bar/file and /baz/file are
represented by different inodes in the local namespace, but refer to the
same file /foo/file on the server.
Consider the case where a process opens both /bar/file and /baz/file, then
closes /bar/file: because the nfs4_state is not shared between /bar/file
and /baz/file, the kernel will see that the nfs4_state for /bar/file is no
longer referenced, so it will send off a CLOSE rpc call. Unless the
open_owners differ, then that CLOSE call will invalidate the open state on
/baz/file too.
Conclusion: we cannot share open state owners between two different
non-shared mount instances of the same filesystem.

Unless the user sets the NFS_MOUNT_NOSHAREDCACHE mount flag, we should

Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
Prior to David Howell's mount changes in 2.6.18, users who mounted
different directories which happened to be from the same filesystem on the
server would get different super blocks, and hence could choose different
mount options. As long as there were no hard linked files that crossed from
one subtree to another, this was quite safe.
Post the changes, if the two directories are on the same filesystem (have
the same 'fsid'), they will share the same super block, and hence the same
mount options.
Add a flag to allow users to elect not to share the NFS super block with
another mount point, even if the fsids are the same. This will allow
users to set different mount options for the two different super blocks, as
was previously possible. It is still up to the user to ensure that there
are no cache coherency issues when doing this, however the default
behaviour will be to share super blocks whenever two paths result in
the same fsid.
