This patch modifies the attr remove routines to be delay ready. This
means they no longer roll or commit transactions, but instead return
-EAGAIN to have the calling routine roll and refresh the transaction. In
this series, xfs_attr_remove_args has become xfs_attr_remove_iter, which
uses a sort of state machine like switch to keep track of where it was
when EAGAIN was returned. xfs_attr_node_removename has also been
modified to use the switch, and a new version of xfs_attr_remove_args
consists of a simple loop to refresh the transaction until the operation
is completed. A new XFS_DAC_DEFER_FINISH flag is used to finish the
transaction where ever the existing code used to.
Calls to xfs_attr_rmtval_remove are replaced with the delay ready
version __xfs_attr_rmtval_remove. We will rename
__xfs_attr_rmtval_remove back to xfs_attr_rmtval_remove when we are
done.
xfs_attr_rmtval_remove itself is still in use by the set routines (used
during a rename). For reasons of preserving existing function, we
modify xfs_attr_rmtval_remove to call xfs_defer_finish when the flag is
set. Similar to how xfs_attr_remove_args does here. Once we transition
the set routines to be delay ready, xfs_attr_rmtval_remove is no longer
used and will be removed.
This patch also adds a new struct xfs_delattr_context, which we will use
to keep track of the current state of an attribute operation. The new
xfs_delattr_state enum is used to track various operations that are in
progress so that we know not to repeat them, and resume where we left
off before EAGAIN was returned to cycle out the transaction. Other
members take the place of local variables that need to retain their
values across multiple function recalls. See xfs_attr.h for a more
detailed diagram of the states.

Ok, will fix
Also, can we lift xfs_attr_node_removename_iter() into this function,
form the current implementation of xfs_attr_remove_iter() into the
UNINIT state, and move the current UNINIT state into a new RMT_BLK state
to support reentry? ISTM that would condense everything to a single
switch statement that can live inside xfs_attr_remove_iter(). IOW, we
can kill off the 'node:' level and multi-layer state management here.
Hm?
Sure, I think the lift should be fine, though I dont think we'll need
the extra state. See below....

Hmm.. so re: my comment further down on xfs_attr_rmtval_remove(),
wouldn't that change semantics here? I.e., once remote blocks are
removed this would previously carry on with a clean transaction. Now it
looks like we'd carry on with the dirty transaction that removed the
last remote extent. This suggests that perhaps we should return once
more and fall into a new state to remove the name..?
I suspect the diff might be making this a bit difficult to see. The
roll that you see being removed here belongs to the transaction we
hoisted up in patch 3 which happens after the clean up below, and we
have the corresponding EAGAIN fot that one. I think the diff gets
things a little interlaced here because the switch adds another level of
indentation.
some times i do like to I use a graphical diffviewer like diffuse when
patches get weird like this. Something like this:
git config --global diff.tool diffuse
git difftool 3c53e49 e201c09
You'd need to download the branch and also the diffuse tool, but
sometimes i think it makes some of these diffs a bit easier to see
Also, it would be
nice to remove the several seemingly unnecessary layers of indirection
here. For example, something like the following (also considering my
comment above wrt to xfs_attr_remove_iter() and UNINIT):
case UNINIT:
...
/* fallthrough */
case RMTBLK:
if (args->rmtblkno > 0) {
dac->dela_state = RMTBLK;
error = __xfs_attr_rmtval_remove(dac);
if (error)
break;
ASSERT(args->rmtblkno == 0);
xfs_attr_refillstate(state);
dac->flags |= XFS_DAC_DEFER_FINISH;
dac->dela_state = RMNAME;
return -EAGAIN;
}
Ok, this looks to me like we've hoisted both xfs_attr_node_remove_rmt
and xfs_attr_node_remove_step into this scope, but I still think this
adds an extra roll where non previously was. With out that extra
EAGAIN, I think we are fine to have all that just under the UNINIT case.
I also think it's also worth noteing here that this is kind of a
reverse of patch 1, which I think we put in for reasons of trying to
modularize the higher level functions as much as possible.
I suspect some of where you were going with this may have been
influenced by the earlier diff confusion too. Maybe take a second look
there before we go too much down this change....

Previously this would roll once and exit the loop on retval == 0. Now it
looks like we break out of the loop immediately. Why the change?
Gosh, I think sometime in reviewing v9, we had come up with a
"xfs_attr_roll_again" helper that took the error code as a paramater and
decided whether or not to roll. And then in v10 i think people thought
that was weird and we turned it into xfs_attr_trans_roll. I think I
likley forgot to restore the orginal retval handling here. This whole
function disappears in the next patch, but the original error handling
should be restored to keep things consistent. Thx for the catch!
Thx for the reviews!! I know it's complicated! I've chased my tail
many times with it myself :-)
