Kit Dallege 890d56964c 9p: document missing enum values in kernel-doc comments
Add kernel-doc entries for all undocumented enum values:
- p9_debug_flags: P9_DEBUG_CACHE, P9_DEBUG_MMAP
- p9_msg_t: all 9P2000.L message types (TLOPEN/RLOPEN through
  TUNLINKAT/RUNLINKAT)
- p9_open_mode_t: P9L_MODE_MASK, P9L_DIRECT, P9L_NOWRITECACHE,
  P9L_LOOSE

Eric Sandeen 1f3e4142c0 9p: convert to the new mount API
Convert 9p to the new mount API. This patch consolidates all parsing
into fs/9p/v9fs.c, which stores all results into a filesystem context
which can be passed to the various transports as needed.

Some of the parsing helper functions such as get_cache_mode() have been
eliminated in favor of using the new mount API's enum param type,
for simplicity.

Eric Sandeen 075e8bd412 9p: create a v9fs_context structure to hold parsed options
This patch creates a new v9fs_context structure which includes
new p9_session_opts and p9_client_opts structures, as well as
re-using the existing p9_fd_opts and p9_rdma_opts to store options
during parsing. The new structure will be used in the next
commit to pass all parsed options to the appropriate transports.

With the new mount API all option parsing will need to happen

Pierre Barre e21d451a82 9p: Use kvmalloc for message buffers on supported transports
While developing a 9P server (https://github.com/Barre/ZeroFS) and
testing it under high-load, I was running into allocation failures.
The failures occur even with plenty of free memory available because
kmalloc requires contiguous physical memory.

This results in errors like:
ls: page allocation failure: order:7, mode:0x40c40(GFP_NOFS|__GFP_COMP)

This patch introduces a transport capability flag (supports_vmalloc)
that indicates whether a transport can work with vmalloc'd buffers
(non-physically contiguous memory). Transports requiring DMA should
leave this flag as false.

The fd-based transports (tcp, unix, fd) set this flag to true, and
p9_fcall_init will use kvmalloc instead of kmalloc for these
transports. This allows the allocator to fall back to vmalloc when
contiguous physical memory is not available.

Additionally, if kmem_cache_alloc fails, the code falls back to
kvmalloc for transports that support it.

Christian Schoenebeck 8e4c2eee1e net/9p: distinguish zero-copy requests
Add boolean `zc` member to struct p9_fcall to distinguish zero-copy
messages (not using the linear `sdata` buffer for message payload) from
regular messages (which do copy message payload to `sdata` before being
further processed).

This new member is appended to end of structure to avoid inserting huge
padding in generated layout.

Christian Schoenebeck 58d331312b 9p: add P9_ERRMAX for 9p2000 and 9p2000.u
Add P9_ERRMAX macro to 9P protocol header which reflects the maximum
error string length of Rerror replies for 9p2000 and 9p2000.u protocol
versions. Unfortunately a maximum error string length is not defined by
the 9p2000 spec, picking 128 as value for now, as this seems to be a
common max. size for POSIX error strings in practice.

9p2000.L protocol version uses Rlerror replies instead which does not
contain an error string.

Jianyong Wu 6636b6dcc3 9p: add refcount to p9_fid struct
Fix race issue in fid contention.

Eric's and Greg's patch offer a mechanism to fix open-unlink-f*syscall
bug in 9p. But there is race issue in fid parallel accesses.
As Greg's patch stores all of fids from opened files into according inode,
so all the lookup fid ops can retrieve fid from inode preferentially. But
there is no mechanism to handle the fid contention issue. For example,
there are two threads get the same fid in the same time and one of them
clunk the fid before the other thread ready to discard the fid. In this
scenario, it will lead to some fatal problems, even kernel core dump.

I introduce a mechanism to fix this race issue. A counter field introduced
into p9_fid struct to store the reference counter to the fid. When a fid
is allocated from the inode or dentry, the counter will increase, and
will decrease at the end of its occupation. It is guaranteed that the
fid won't be clunked before the reference counter go down to 0, then
we can avoid the clunked fid to be used.

tests:
race issue test from the old test case:
for file in {01..50}; do touch f.${file}; done
seq 1 1000 | xargs -n 1 -P 50 -I{} cat f.* > /dev/null

open-unlink-f*syscall test:
I have tested for f*syscall include: ftruncate fstat fchown fchmod faccessat.
