Pull orangefs updates from Mike Marshall:
 "Orangefs cleanups, fixes and statx support.

  Some cleanups:

   - remove unused get_fsid_from_ino
   - fix bounds check for listxattr
   - clean up oversize xattr validation
   - do not set getattr_time on orangefs_lookup
   - return from orangefs_devreq_read quickly if possible
   - do not wait for timeout if umounting
   - handle zero size write in debugfs

  Bug fixes:

   - do not check possibly stale size on truncate
   - ensure the userspace component is unmounted if mount fails
   - total reimplementation of dir.c

  New feature:

   - implement statx

  The new implementation of dir.c is kind of a big deal, all new code.
  It has been posted to fs-devel during the previous rc period, we
  didn't get much review or feedback from there, but it has been
  reviewed very heavily here, so much so that we have two entire
  versions of the reimplementation.

  Not only does the new implementation fix some xfstests, but it passes
  all the new tests we made here that involve seeking and rewinding and
  giant directories and long file names. The new dir code has three
  patches itself:

   - skip forward to the next directory entry if seek is short
   - invalidate stored directory on seek
   - count directory pieces correctly"

A large directory full of differently sized file names triggered this.
Most directories, even very large directories with shorter names, would

If an application seeks to a position before the point which has been
read, it must want updates which have been made to the directory.  So
delete the copy stored in the kernel so it will be fetched again.

If userspace seeks to a position in the stream which is not correct, it
would have returned EIO because the data in the buffer at that offset
would be incorrect.  This and the userspace daemon returning a corrupt
directory are indistinguishable.

Now if the data does not look right, skip forward to the next chunk and
try again.  The motivation is that if the directory changes, an
application may seek to a position that was valid and no longer is valid.

It is not yet possible for a directory to change.

If we write zero bytes to this debugfs file, then it will cause an
underflow when we do copy_from_user(buf, ubuf, count - 1).  Debugfs can
normally only be written to by root so the impact of this is low.

When the computer is turned off, all the processes are killed and then
all the filesystems are umounted.  OrangeFS should not wait for the
userspace daemon to come back in that case.

This only works for plain umount(2).  To actually take advantage of this
interactively, `umount -f' is needed; otherwise umount will issue a
statfs first, which will wait for the userspace daemon to come back.

If the mount is aborted after userspace has been asked to mount,
userspace must be told to unmount.

Ordinarily orangefs_kill_sb does the unmount.  However it cannot be
called if the superblock has not been set up.  This is a very narrow
window.

The NULL fs_id is not unmounted.

Let the server figure this out because our size might be out of date or
not present.

The bug was that

	xfs_io -f -t -c "pread -v 0 100" /mnt/foo
	echo "Test" &gt; /mnt/foo
	xfs_io -f -t -c "pread -v 0 100" /mnt/foo

fails because the second truncate did not happen if nothing had
requested the size after the write in echo.  Thus i_size was zero (not
present) and the orangefs_setattr though i_size was zero and there was
nothing to do.

Fortunately OrangeFS has had a getattr request mask for a long time.

The server basically has two difficulty levels for attributes.  Fetching
any attribute except size requires communicating with the metadata
server for that handle.  Since all the attributes are right there, it
makes sense to return them all.  Fetching the size requires
communicating with every I/O server (that the file is distributed
across).  Therefore if asked for anything except size, get everything
except size, and if asked for size, get everything.
