The restriction to python 2.7 was noted being current as of an ancient
version. Dropping that line and building (therefore with 3.9)
succeeded, and the upstream configure.ac searches for python3 and
accepts it. Thus, even without testing, this seems ok.

Events: Socket creation after getaddrinfo and IPv4 and IPv6 packet capture
Issue: Currently, the socket creation is done
prior to getaddrinfo function being invoked. This
can cause mismatch in the protocol and address
families of the created socket and the result
of the getaddrinfo api. Also, the glustereventsd
UDP server by default only captures IPv4 packets
hence IPv6 packets are not even captured.
Code Changes:
1. Modified the socket creation in such a way that
the parameters taken in are dependent upon the
result of the getaddrinfo function.
2. Created a subclass for adding address family
in glustereventsd.py for both AF_INET and AF_INET6.
3. Modified addresses in the eventsapiconf.py.in
Reasoning behind the approach:
1. If we are using getaddrinfo function then
socket creation should happen only after we
check if we received back valid addresses.
Hence socket creation should come after the call
to getaddrinfo
2. The listening server which pushes the events
to the webhook has to listen for both IPv4
and IPv6 messages as we would not be sure as to
what address family is picked in _gf_event.

glusterd: cksum mismatch on upgrading to latest gluster
Issue:
In gluster versions less than 7, the checksums were calculated
whether or not the quota is enabled or not, and that cksum value
was also getting stored in the quota.cksum file. But, from gluster
7 version onwards cksum was calculated only if the quota is enabled.
Due to this, the cksums in quota.cksum files differ after upgrading.
Fix:
Added a check to see if the OP_VERSION is less than 7 then, follow
the previous method otherwise, move as per the latest changes for
cksum calculation.
This changes for the cksum calculation was done in
this commit : https://github.com/gluster/glusterfs/commit/3b5eb592f5

open-behind: implement create fop
Open behind didn't implement create fop. This caused that files created
were not accounted for the number of open fd's. This could cause future
opens to be delayed when they shouldn't.
This patch implements the create fop. It also fixes a problem when
destroying the stack: when frame->local was not NULL, STACK_DESTROY()
tried to mem_put() it, which is not correct.

afr: add null check for thin-arbiter gfid.
Problem:
Lookup/creation of thin-arbiter ID file happens in background during
mounting. On new volumes, if the ID file creation is in progress, and a
FOP fails on data brick, a post-op (xattrop) is attemtped on TA. Since
the TA file's gfid is null at this point, the ASSERT checks in protocol/
client causes a crash.
Fix:
Given that we decided to do Lookup/creation of thin-arbiter in
background, fail the other AFR FOPS on TA if the ID file's gfid is null
instead of winding it down to protocol/client.
Also remove afr_changelog_thin_arbiter_post_op() which seems to be dead
code.

open-behind: fix call_frame leak
When an open was delayed, a copy of the frame was created because the
current frame was used to unwind the "fake" open. When the open was
actually sent, the frame was correctly destroyed. However if the file
was closed before needing to send the open, the frame was not destroyed.
This patch correctly destroys the frame in all cases.

glusterd: dump SSL error stack on disconnect
Problem: When a non-SSL connection is attempted on an SSL-enabled
management port, unrelated peers are subsequently disconnected
from the node with a misleading error message.
Cause: A non-SSL client causes OpenSSL to push a wrong version error
into its thread-local error stack, but this error is never
cleared, and it lingers in the stack until the thread is used
by another SSL session, and a certain condition requires the error
stack to be examined, at which time the old error is discovered and
the connection is terminated.
Solution: Log and clear the error stack upon terminating the connection.

features/shard: optimization over shard lookup in case of prealloc
Assume that we are preallocating a VM of size 1TB with a shard
block size of 64MB then there will be ~16k shards.
This creation happens in 2 steps shard_fallocate() path i.e
1. lookup for the shards if any already present and
2. mknod over those shards do not exist.
But in case of fresh creation, we dont have to lookup for all
shards which are not present as the the file size will be 0.
Through this, we can save lookup on all shards which are not
present. This optimization is quite useful in the case of
preallocating big vm.
Also if the file is already present and the call is to
extend it to bigger size then we need not to lookup for non-
existent shards. Just lookup preexisting shards, populate
the inodes and issue mknod on extended size.

cluster/ec: Remove stale entries from indices/xattrop folder
Problem:
If a gfid is present in indices/xattrop folder while
the file/dir is actaully healthy and all the xattrs are healthy,
it causes lot of lookups by shd on an entry which does not need
to be healed.
This whole process eats up lot of CPU usage without doing meaningful
work.
Solution:
Set trusted.ec.dirty xattr of the entry so that actual heal process
happens and at the end of it, during unset of dirty, gfid enrty from
indices/xattrop will be removed.

cluster/ec: Improve detection of new heals
When EC successfully healed a directory it assumed that maybe other
entries inside that directory could have been created, which could
require additional heal cycles. For this reason, when the heal happened
as part of one index heal iteration, it triggered a new iteration.
The problem happened when the directory was healthy, so no new entries
were added, but its index entry was not removed for some reason. In
this case self-heal started and endless loop healing the same directory
continuously, cause high CPU utilization.
This patch improves detection of new files added to the heal index so
that a new index heal iteration is only triggered if there is new work
to do.

cluster/afr: Delay post-op for fsync
Problem:
AFR doesn't delay post-op for fsync fop. For fsync heavy workloads
this leads to un-necessary fxattrop/finodelk for every fsync leading
to bad performance.
Fix:
Have delayed post-op for fsync. Add special flag in xdata to indicate
that afr shouldn't delay post-op in cases where either the
process will terminate or graph-switch would happen. Otherwise it leads
to un-necessary heals when the graph-switch/process-termination
happens before delayed-post-op completes.

api: libgfapi symbol versions break LTO in Fedora rawhide/f33
The way symbol versions are implemented is incompatible with gcc-10 and LTO.
Fedora provenpackager Jeff Law (law [at] redhat.com) writes in the
Fedora dist-git glusterfs.spec:
This package uses top level ASM constructs which are incompatible with LTO.
Top level ASMs are often used to implement symbol versioning. gcc-10
introduces a new mechanism for symbol versioning which works with LTO.
Converting packages to use that mechanism instead of toplevel ASMs is
recommended.
In particular, note that the version of gluster in Fedora rawhide/f33 is
glusterfs-8.0RC0. Once this fix is merged it will be necessary to backport
it to the release-8 branch.
At the time that gfapi symbol versions were first implemented we copied
the GNU libc (glibc) symbol version implementation following Uli Drepper's
symbol versioning HOWTO.
Now gcc-10 has a symver attribute that can be used instead. (Maybe it
has been there all along?)
Both the original implemenation and this implemenation yield the same
symbol versions. This can be seen by running
`nm -D --with-symbol-versions libgfapi.so`
on the libgfapi.so built before and after applying this fix.

Drop two SUBST blocks that no longer do anything.
Change a SUBST pattern to adjust to the file in newer releases.
Builds on netbsd-8. OK manu@.

- Properly screen the .attribute directory where NetBSD UFS1 stores
extended attributes.
- Fix NULL pointer usage.
- Make FUSE notification optional at configure time since NetBSD does not
implement them.

There is an important performance bug fix specific to NetBSD here,
which disable gfid2path by default. This features causes a huge
amount of different extended attributes to be created, and the
NetBSD implementation does not scale well with it.
In order to recover a server after the feature is disabled, stop
glusterfs daemones, disable extended attributes using extattrctl,
remove ${BRICK_ROOT}/.attribute/system/trusted.gfid2path.*
re-enable extended attributes and restart glusterfs.

From http://blog.gluster.org/2016/06/glusterfs-3-8-released/
Gluster.org announces the release of 3.8 on June 14, 2016, marking
a decade of active development.
The 3.8 release focuses on:
- containers with inclusion of Heketi
- hyperconvergence
- ecosystem integration
- protocol improvements with NFS Ganesha
Contributed features are marked with the supporting organizations.
Automatic conflict resolution, self-healing improvements (Facebook)
Synchronous Replication receives a major boost with features
contributed from Facebook. Multi-threaded self-healing makes
self-heal perform at a faster rate than before. Automatic
Conflict resolution ensures that conflicts due to network
partitions are handled without the need for administrative
intervention
NFSv4.1 (Ganesha) - protocol
Gluster's native NFSv3 server is disabled by default with this
release. Gluster's integration with NFS Ganesha provides NFS
v3, v4 and v4.1 accesses to data stored in Gluster volume.
BareOS - backup / data protection
Gluster 3.8 is ready for integration with BareOS 16.2. BareOS
16.2 leverages glusterfind for intelligently backing up objects
stored in a Gluster volume.
"Next generation" tiering and sharding - VM images
Sharding is now stable for VM image storage. Geo-replication
has been enhanced to integrate with sharding for offsite
backup/disaster recovery of VM images. Self-healing and data
tiering with sharding makes it an excellent candidate for
hyperconverged virtual machine image storage.
block device & iSCSI with LIO - containers
File backed block devices are usable from Gluster through iSCSI.
This release of Gluster integrates with tcmu-runner
[https://github.com/agrover/tcmu-runner] to access block devices
natively through libgfapi.
Heketi - containers, dynamic provisioning
Heketi provides the ability to dynamically provision Gluster
volumes without administrative intervention. Heketi can manage
multiple Gluster clusters and will be the cornerstone for
integration with Container and Storage as a Service management
ecosystems.
glusterfs-coreutils (Facebook) - containers
Native coreutils for Gluster developed by Facebook that uses
libgfapi to interact with gluster volumes. Useful for systems
and containers that do not have FUSE.
For more details, our release notes are included:
https://github.com/gluster/glusterfs/blob/release-3.8/doc/release-notes/3.8.0.md
The release of 3.8 also marks the end of life for GlusterFS 3.5,
there will no further updates for this version.
