Tom Tucker fc79d4b104 9p: rdma: RDMA Transport Support for 9P
This patch implements the RDMA transport provider for 9P. It allows
mounts to be performed over iWARP and IB capable network interfaces.

Eric Van Hensbergen 02da398b95 9p: eliminate depricated conv functions
Remove depricated conv functions which have been replaced with new 
protocol routines.

This patch also reworks the one instance of the file-system code which
directly calls conversion routines (to accomplish unpacking dirreads).

Now that the new protocol functions are in place, this patch switches
the client code to using the new support code.

Eric Van Hensbergen 06b55b464e 9p: move dirread to fs layer
Currently reading a directory is implemented in the client code.
This function is not actually a wire operation, but a meta operation 
which calls read operations and processes the results.

This patch moves this functionality to the fs layer and calls component
wire operations instead of constructing their packets.  This provides a 
cleaner separation and will help when we reorganize the client functions
and protocol processing methods.

Eric Van Hensbergen fbedadc16e 9p: move readn meta-function from client to fs layer
There are a couple of methods in the client code which aren't actually
wire operations.  To keep things organized cleaner, these operations are
being moved to the fs layer.

This patch moves the readn meta-function (which executes multiple wire
reads until a buffer is full) to the fs layer.

Eric Van Hensbergen 0fc9655ec6 9p: consolidate read/write functions
Currently there are two separate versions of read and write.  One for
dealing with user buffers and the other for dealing with kernel buffers.
There is a tremendous amount of code duplication in the otherwise
identical versions of these functions.  This patch adds an additional
user buffer parameter to read and write and conditionalizes handling of
the buffer on whether the kernel buffer or the user buffer is populated.

Eric Van Hensbergen 91b8534fa8 9p: make rpc code common and rework flush code
This code moves the rpc function to the common client base,
reorganizes the flush code to be more simple and stable, and
makes the necessary adjustments to the underlying transports
to adapt to the new structure.

This reduces the overall amount of code duplication between the
transports and should make adding new transports more straightforward.

Eric Van Hensbergen fea511a644 9p: move request management to client code
The virtio transport uses a simplified request management system
that I want to use for all transports.  This patch adapts and moves the
exisiting code for managing requests to the client common code.
Later patches will apply these mechanisms to the other transports.

Eric Van Hensbergen 8b81ef589a 9p: consolidate transport structure
Right now there is a transport module structure which provides per-transport
type functions and data and a transport structure which contains per-instance
public data as well as function pointers to instance specific functions.

This patch moves public transport visible instance data to the client
structure (which in some cases had duplicate data) and consolidates the
functions into the transport module structure.

Eric Van Hensbergen ee443996a3 9p: Documentation updates
The kernel-doc comments of much of the 9p system have been in disarray since
reorganization.  This patch fixes those problems, adds additional documentation
and a template book which collects the 9p information.

Eric Van Hensbergen 8a0dc95fd9 9p: transport API reorganization
This merges the mux.c (including the connection interface) with trans_fd
in preparation for transport API changes.  Ultimately, trans_fd will need
to be rewritten to clean it up and simplify the implementation, but this
reorganization is viewed as the first step.

Latchesar Ionkov ba17674fe0 9p: attach-per-user
The 9P2000 protocol requires the authentication and permission checks to be
done in the file server. For that reason every user that accesses the file
server tree has to authenticate and attach to the server separately.
Multiple users can share the same connection to the server.

Currently v9fs does a single attach and executes all I/O operations as a
single user. This makes using v9fs in multiuser environment unsafe as it
depends on the client doing the permission checking.

This patch improves the 9P2000 support by allowing every user to attach
separately. The patch defines three modes of access (new mount option
'access'):

- attach-per-user (access=user) (default mode for 9P2000.u)
 If a user tries to access a file served by v9fs for the first time, v9fs
 sends an attach command to the server (Tattach) specifying the user. If
 the attach succeeds, the user can access the v9fs tree.
 As there is no uname->uid (string->integer) mapping yet, this mode works
 only with the 9P2000.u dialect.

- allow only one user to access the tree (access=<uid>)
 Only the user with uid can access the v9fs tree. Other users that attempt
 to access it will get EPERM error.

- do all operations as a single user (access=any) (default for 9P2000)
 V9fs does a single attach and all operations are done as a single user.
 If this mode is selected, the v9fs behavior is identical with the current
 one.

Eric Van Hensbergen a80d923e13 9p: Make transports dynamic
This patch abstracts out the interfaces to underlying transports so that
new transports can be added as modules.  This should also allow kernel
configuration of transports without ifdef-hell.

Latchesar Ionkov bd238fb431 9p: Reorganization of 9p file system code
This patchset moves non-filesystem interfaces of v9fs from fs/9p to net/9p.
It moves the transport, packet marshalling and connection layers to net/9p
leaving only the VFS related files in fs/9p.  This work is being done in
preparation for in-kernel 9p servers as well as alternate 9p clients (other
than VFS).
