Add a dummy printk function for the maintenance of unused printks

Add a dummy printk function for the maintenance of unused printks through gcc
format checking, and also so that side-effect checking is maintained too.

AFS: Implement an autocell mount capability [ver #2]

2010-08-11T17:11:29+00:00

Implement the ability for the root directory of a mounted AFS filesystem to
accept lookups of arbitrary directory names, to interpet the names as the names
of cells, to look the cell names up in the DNS for AFSDB records and to mount
the root.cell volume of the nominated cell on the pseudo-directory created by
lookup.

This facility is requested by passing:

	-o autocell

to the mountpoint for which this is desired, usually the /afs mount.

To use this facility, a DNS upcall program is required for AFSDB records.  This
can be obtained from:

	http://people.redhat.com/~dhowells/afs/dns.afsdb.c

It should be compiled with -lresolv and -lkeyutils and installed as, say:

	/usr/sbin/dns.afsdb

Then the following line needs to be added to /sbin/request-key.conf:

	create	dns_resolver afsdb:*	*	/usr/sbin/dns.afsdb %k

This can be tested by mounting AFS, say:

	insmod dns_resolver.ko
	insmod af-rxrpc.ko
	insmod kafs.ko rootcell=grand.central.org
	mount -t afs "#grand.central.org:root.cell." /afs -o autocell

and doing:

	ls /afs/grand.central.org/

which should show:

	archive/  cvs/  doc/  local/  project/  service/  software/  user/  www/

if it works.

DNS: If the DNS server returns an error, allow that to be cached [ver #2]

2010-08-11T17:11:28+00:00

If the DNS server returns an error, allow that to be cached in the DNS resolver
key in lieu of a value.  Userspace passes the desired error number as an option
in the payload:

	"#dnserror="

Userspace must map h_errno from the name resolution routines to an appropriate
Linux error before passing it up.  Something like the following mapping is
recommended:

	[HOST_NOT_FOUND]	= ENODATA,
	[TRY_AGAIN]		= EAGAIN,
	[NO_RECOVERY]		= ECONNREFUSED,
	[NO_DATA]		= ENODATA,

in lieu of Linux errors specifically for representing name service errors.  The
filesystem must map these errors appropropriately before passing them to
userspace.  AFS is made to map ENODATA and EAGAIN to EDESTADDRREQ for the
return to userspace; ECONNREFUSED is allowed to stand as is.

The error can be seen in /proc/keys as a negative number after the description
of the key.  Compare, for example, the following key entries:

2f97238c I--Q--     1  53s 3f010000     0     0 dns_resol afsdb:grand.centrall.org: -61
338bfbbe I--Q--     1  59m 3f010000     0     0 dns_resol afsdb:grand.central.org: 37

If the error option is supplied in the payload, the main part of the payload is
discarded.  The key should have an expiry time set by userspace.

AFS: Fix the module init error handling

2010-08-07T21:23:37+00:00

Fix the module init error handling.  There are a bunch of goto labels for
aborting the init procedure at different points and just undoing what needs
undoing - they aren't all in the right places, however.

This can lead to an oops like the following:

	BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000020

DNS: Make AFS go to the DNS for AFSDB records for unknown cells

2010-08-05T17:17:51+00:00

Add DNS query support for AFS so that it can get the IP addresses of Volume
Location servers from the DNS using an AFSDB record.

This requires userspace support.  /etc/request-key.conf must be configured to
invoke a helper for dns_resolver type keys with a subtype of "afsdb:" in the
description.

writeback: remove writeback_inodes_wbc

2010-07-06T06:54:03+00:00

This was just an odd wrapper around writeback_inodes_wb.  Removing this
also allows to get rid of the bdi member of struct writeback_control
which was rather out of place there.
