Change the client side to always request an asynchronous copy. If server replies to the COPY with the copy stateid, client will go wait on the CB_OFFLOAD. To fend off the race between CB_OFFLOAD and COPY reply, we check the list of pending callbacks before going to wait. Client adds the copy to the global list of copy stateids for the callback to look thru and signal the waiting copy. When the client receives reply from the CB_OFFLOAD with some bytes and committed how is UNSTABLE, then COMMIT is sent to the server. The results are propagated to the VFS and application. Assuming that application will deal with a partial result and continue from the new offset if needed. If server errs with ERR_OFFLOAD_NOREQS the copy will be re-sent as a synchronous COPY. If application cancels an in-flight COPY, OFFLOAD_CANCEL is sent to the server (sending it as an async RPC in the context of the nfsid_workqueue). v8. - added patch 13 to handle reboot recovery of the server or network partition. this patch was a part of the initial "inter async" series but never got added to the async series. without this patch if the server goes away, thread that was doing the copy would be hanging waiting for the callback that would never arrive.
