Servers have a finite amount of memory to store NFSv4 open and lock
owners. Moreover, servers may have a difficult time determining when
they can reap their state owner table, thanks to gray areas in the
NFSv4 protocol specification. Thus clients should be careful to reuse
state owners when possible.
Currently Linux is not too careful. When a user has closed all her
files on one mount point, the state owner's reference count goes to
zero, and it is released. The next OPEN allocates a new one. A
workload that serially opens and closes files can run through a large
number of open owners this way.
When a state owner's reference count goes to zero, slap it onto a free
list for that nfs_server, with an expiry time. Garbage collect before
looking for a state owner. This makes state owners for active users
available for re-use.
Now that there can be unused state owners remaining at umount time,
purge the state owner free list when a server is destroyed. Also be
sure not to reclaim unused state owners during state recovery.
This change has benefits for the client as well. For some workloads,
this approach drops the number of OPEN_CONFIRM calls from the same as
the number of OPEN calls, down to just one. This reduces wire traffic
and thus open(2) latency. Before this patch, untarring a kernel
source tarball shows the OPEN_CONFIRM call counter steadily increasing
through the test. With the patch, the OPEN_CONFIRM count remains at 1
throughout the entire untar.
As long as the expiry time is kept short, I don't think garbage
collection should be terribly expensive, although it does bounce the
clp->cl_lock around a bit.
[ At some point we should rationalize the use of the nfs_server
->destroy method. ]

If a server for some reason keeps sending NFS4ERR_DELAY errors, we can end
up looping forever inside nfs4_proc_create_session, and so the usual
mechanisms for detecting if the nfs_client is dead don't work.
Fix this by ensuring that we loop inside the nfs4_state_manager thread
instead.

nfs4_schedule_state_recovery() should only be used when we need to force
the state manager to check the lease. If we just want to start the
state manager in order to handle a state recovery situation, we should be
using nfs4_schedule_state_manager().
This patch fixes the abuses of nfs4_schedule_state_recovery() by replacing
its use with a set of helper functions that do the right thing.

Delegations are per-inode, not per-nfs_client. When a server file
system is migrated, delegations on the client must be moved from the
source to the destination nfs_server. Make it easier to manage a
mount point's delegation list across a migration event by moving the
list to the nfs_server struct.
Clean up: I added documenting comments to public functions I changed
in this patch. For consistency I added comments to all the other
public functions in fs/nfs/delegation.c.

NFSv4 migration needs to reassociate state owners from the source to
the destination nfs_server data structures. To make that easier, move
the cl_state_owners field to the nfs_server struct. cl_openowner_id
and cl_lockowner_id accompany this move, as they are used in
conjunction with cl_state_owners.
The cl_lock field in the parent nfs_client continues to protect all
three of these fields.

A layout can request return-on-close. How this interacts with the
forgetful model of never sending LAYOUTRETURNS is a bit ambiguous.
We forget any layouts marked roc, and wait for them to be completely
forgotten before continuing with the close. In addition, to compensate
for races with any inflight LAYOUTGETs, and the fact that we do not get
any layout stateid back from the server, we set the barrier to the worst
case scenario of current_seqid + number of outstanding LAYOUTGETS.

Currently session draining only drains the fore channel.
The back channel processing must also be drained.
Use the back channel highest_slot_used to indicate that a callback is being
processed by the callback thread. Move the session complete to be per channel.
When the session is draininig, wait for any current back channel processing
to complete and stop all new back channel processing by returning NFS4ERR_DELAY
to the back channel client.
Drain the back channel, then the fore channel.

Add the ability to actually send LAYOUTGET and GETDEVICEINFO. This also adds
in the machinery to handle layout state and the deviceid cache. Note that
GETDEVICEINFO is not called directly by the generic layer. Instead it
is called by the drivers while parsing the LAYOUTGET opaque data in response
to an unknown device id embedded therein. RFC 5661 only encodes
device ids within the driver-specific opaque data.

In particular, server reboot will invalidate all layouts.
Note that in order to have an active layout, we must get a successful response
from the server. To avoid adding that machinery, this patch just includes a
stub that fakes up a successful return. Since the layout is never referenced
for io, this is not a problem.

Instead of blindly zapping the caches, attempt to revalidate them if
the server has indicated that it uses high resolution timestamps.
NFSv4 should be able to always revalidate the cache since the
protocol requires the update of the change attribute on modification of
the data. In reality, there are servers (the Linux NFS server
for example) that do not obey this requirement and use ctime as the
basis for change attribute. Long term, the server needs to be fixed.
At this time, and to be on the safe side, continue zapping caches if
the server indicates that it does not have a high resolution timestamp.
