Many user space API headers have licensing information, which is either incomplete, badly formatted or just a shorthand for referring to the license under which the file is supposed to be. This makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license. Update these files with an SPDX license identifier. The identifier was chosen based on the license information in the file. GPL/LGPL licensed headers get the matching GPL/LGPL SPDX license identifier with the added 'WITH Linux-syscall-note' exception, which is the officially assigned exception identifier for the kernel syscall exception: NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work". This exception makes it possible to include GPL headers into non GPL code, without confusing license compliance tools. Headers which have either explicit dual licensing or are just licensed under a non GPL license are updated with the corresponding SPDX identifier and the GPLv2 with syscall exception identifier. The format is: ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR SPDX-ID-OF-OTHER-LICENSE) SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. The update does not remove existing license information as this has to be done on a case by case basis and the copyright holders might have to be consulted. This will happen in a separate step. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. See the previous patch in this series for the methodology of how this patch was researched.

In the cluster evironment, cluster write has poor performance because userspace_flush() has to contact a userspace program (cmirrord) for clear/mark/flush requests. But both mark and flush requests require cmirrord to communicate the message to all the cluster nodes for each flush call. This behaviour is really slow. To address this we now merge mark and flush requests together to reduce the kernel-userspace-kernel time. We allow a new directive, "integrated_flush" that can be used to instruct the kernel log code to combine flush and mark requests when directed by userspace. If not directed by userspace (due to an older version of the userspace code perhaps), the kernel will function as it did previously - preserving backwards compatibility. Additionally, flush requests are performed lazily when only clear requests exist.

Allow userspace dm log implementations to register their log device so it is no longer missing from the list of device dependencies. When device mapper targets use a device they normally call dm_get_device which includes it in the device list returned to userspace applications such as LVM through the DM_TABLE_DEPS ioctl. Userspace log devices don't use dm_get_device as userspace opens them so they are missing from the list of dependencies. This patch extends the DM_ULOG_CTR operation to allow userspace to respond with the name of the log device (if appropriate) to be registered via 'dm_get_device'. DM_ULOG_REQUEST_VERSION is incremented. This is backwards compatible. If the kernel and userspace log server have both been updated, the new information will be passed down to the kernel and the device will be registered. If the kernel is new, but the log server is old, the log server will not pass down any device information and the kernel will simply bypass the device registration as before. If the kernel is old but the log server is new, the log server will see the old version number and not pass the device info.

This patch adds a 'version' field to the 'dm_ulog_request' structure. The 'version' field is taken from a portion of the unused 'padding' field in the 'dm_ulog_request' structure. This was done to avoid changing the size of the structure and possibly disrupting backwards compatibility. The version number will help notify user-space daemons when a change has been made to the kernel/userspace log API.

Device-mapper userspace logs (like the clustered log) are identified by a universally unique identifier (UUID). This identifier is used to associate requests from the kernel to a specific log in userspace. The UUID must be unique everywhere, since multiple machines may use this identifier when communicating about a particular log, as is the case for cluster logs. Sometimes, device-mapper/LVM may re-use a UUID. This is the case during pvmoves, when moving from one segment of an LV to another, or when resizing a mirror, etc. In these cases, a new log is created with the same UUID and loaded in the "inactive" slot. When a device-mapper "resume" is issued, the "live" table is deactivated and the new "inactive" table becomes "live". (The "inactive" table can also be removed via a device-mapper 'clear' command.) The above two issues were colliding. More than one log was being created with the same UUID, and there was no way to distinguish between them. So, sometimes the wrong log would be swapped out during the exchange. The solution is to create a locally unique identifier, 'luid', to go along with the UUID. This new identifier is used to determine exactly which log is being referenced by the kernel when the log exchange is made. The identifier is not universally safe, but it does not need to be, since create/destroy/suspend/resume operations are bound to a specific machine; and these are the operations that make up the exchange.

This patch contains a device-mapper mirror log module that forwards requests to userspace for processing. The structures used for communication between kernel and userspace are located in include/linux/dm-log-userspace.h. Due to the frequency, diversity, and 2-way communication nature of the exchanges between kernel and userspace, 'connector' was chosen as the interface for communication. The first log implementations written in userspace - "clustered-disk" and "clustered-core" - support clustered shared storage. A userspace daemon (in the LVM2 source code repository) uses openAIS/corosync to process requests in an ordered fashion with the rest of the nodes in the cluster so as to prevent log state corruption. Other implementations with no association to LVM or openAIS/corosync, are certainly possible. (Imagine if two machines are writing to the same region of a mirror. They would both mark the region dirty, but you need a cluster-aware entity that can handle properly marking the region clean when they are done. Otherwise, you might clear the region when the first machine is done, not the second.)
