cachefiles: set default tag name if it's unspecified

2022-01-21T21:36:28+00:00

fscache_acquire_cache() requires a non-empty name, while 'tag '
command is optional for cachefilesd.

Thus set default tag name if it's unspecified to avoid the regression of
cachefilesd. The logic is the same with that before rewritten.

cachefiles: Implement backing file wrangling

2022-01-07T13:42:40+00:00

Implement the wrangling of backing files, including the following pieces:

(1) Lookup and creation of a file on disk, using a tmpfile if the file
isn't yet present. The file is then opened, sized for DIO and the
file handle is attached to the cachefiles_object struct. The inode is
marked to indicate that it's in use by a kernel service.

(2) Invalidation of an object, creating a tmpfile and switching the file
pointer in the cachefiles object.

(3) Committing a file to disk, including setting the coherency xattr on it
and, if necessary, creating a hard link to it.

Note that this would be a good place to use Omar Sandoval's vfs_link()
with AT_LINK_REPLACE[1] as I may have to unlink an old file before I
can link a tmpfile into place.

(4) Withdrawal of open objects when a cache is being withdrawn or a cookie
is relinquished. This involves committing or discarding the file.

Changes
=======
ver #2:
- Fix logging of wrong error[1].

cachefiles: Implement culling daemon commands

2022-01-07T13:42:35+00:00

Implement the ability for the userspace daemon to try and cull a file or
directory in the cache.  Two daemon commands are implemented:

 (1) The "inuse" command.  This queries if a file is in use or whether it
     can be deleted.  It checks the S_KERNEL_FILE flag on the inode
     referred to by the specified filename.

 (2) The "cull" command.  This asks for a file or directory to be removed,
     where removal means either unlinking it or moving it to the graveyard
     directory for userspace to dismantle.

Changes
=======
ver #2:
 - Fix logging of wrong error[1].
 - Need to unmark an inode we've moved to the graveyard before unlocking.

cachefiles: Implement volume support

2022-01-07T13:41:53+00:00

Implement support for creating the directory layout for a volume on disk
and setting up and withdrawing volume caching.

Each volume has a directory named for the volume key under the root of the
cache (prefixed with an 'I' to indicate to cachefilesd that it's an index)
and then creates a bunch of hash bucket subdirectories under that (named as
'@' plus a hex number) in which cookie files will be created.

 (3) Add a function to sync a cache.

cachefiles: Provide a function to check how much space there is

2022-01-07T13:41:26+00:00

Provide a function to check how much space there is.  This also flips the
state on the cache and will signal the daemon to inform it of the change
and to ask it to do some culling if necessary.

We will also need to subtract the amount of data currently being written to
the cache (cache->b_writing) from the amount of available space to avoid
hitting ENOSPC accidentally.

cachefiles: Register a miscdev and parse commands over it

2022-01-07T13:41:20+00:00

Register a misc device with which to talk to the daemon.  The misc device
holds a cache set up through it around and closing the device kills the
cache.

cachefilesd communicates with the kernel by passing it single-line text
commands.  Parse these and use them to parameterise the cache state.  This
does not implement the command to actually bring a cache online.  That's
left for later.
