+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1343038 +++

Description of problem:
When the IO is going on a client, 2 or more graph switches one after the other
can lead to IO Error from the client.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Attached is the reproducer.
It is also seen when, qemu(libgfapi based) has a VM on gluster storage and
replace brick(add brick followed by remove brick) was executed.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. gcc -lgfapi tests/bugs/libgfapi/glfs_vol_set_IO_ERR.c -o
tests/bugs/libgfapi/glfs_vol_set_IO_ERR -lgfapi
2. ./tests/bugs/libgfapi/glfs_vol_set_IO_ERR <volname> <log file>
3.

Actual results:
It exists with IO error

Expected results:
It should pass

    gfapi: Fix IO error caused when there is consecutive graph switches

    Issue:
    Consider a simple situation, where glfs_init() is done, i.e. initial
    graph is up. Now perform 2 volume sets that results in 2 client side
    graph changes. After this perform some IO, the IO fails with ENOTCON.
    The only way to recover this client is i guess another graph switch
    or restart.

    What actually is happening from code perspective:
    Initial graph lets say A, followed by 2 consecutive graph switches
    to B and C without any IO those two switches.

    - graph_setup (A) as a result of GF_EVENT_CHILD_UP, and
    fs->next_subvol = A

    - glfs_init() results in fs->active_subvol = A, fs->next_subvol = NULL

    - graph_setup (B) as a result of GF_EVENT_CHILD_UP, and
    fs->next_subvol = B

    - graph_setup (C) as a result of GF_EVENT_CHILD_UP, and
    fs->next_subvol = C. It also sees that the previous graph B was never
    set as fs->active_subvol, i.e. no IO or anything happened on B, so
    can safely send GF_EVENT_PARENT_DOWN (by calling glfs_subvol_done(B)).
    This parent down on B, results in child_down(B), which is fine.
    But child_down also triggers graph_setup(B).

    - graph_setup(B) as a result of GF_EVENT_CHILD_DOWN, and
    fs->next_subvol = B, and GF_EVENT_PARENT_DOWN on C as explained
    above. This again leads to GF_EVENT_CHILD_DOWN on C.

    - graph_setup(C) as a result of GF_EVENT_CHILD_DOWN, and
    fs->next_subvol = C, and GF_EVENT_PARENT_DOWN on B as explained
    above.

    Thus both the graphs B and C are disconnected, and hence the ENOTCON

    Solution:
    Remove the call to graph_setup() when the event is GF_EVENT_CHILD_DOWN.
    It don't see any reason why graph_setup should be called when there is
    child_down. Not sure what the original reason was, to have graph_setup
    in child_down. git hostory shows the first patch itself had this call.

    gfapi: Fix IO error caused when there is consecutive graph switches

    This is part 2 of the fix, the part 1 can be found at:
    http://review.gluster.org/#/c/14656/

    Problem:
    =======
    Consider a race between, __glfs_active_subvol() and graph_setup().
    Lets say @TIME T1:
    fs->active_subvol = A
    fs->next_subvol = B
    __glfs_active_subvol()                //under lock fs->mutex
    {
      ....
      new_subvol = fs->next_subvol       //which is B
      ....                               //Start migration from A to B
      __glfs_first_lookup(){
         ....
         unlock fs->mutex                //@TIME T2
         network fop
         lock fs->mutex
         ....
      }
      ....                                //migration continue on B
      fs->active_subvol = fs->next_subvol //which is C (explained below)
      ....
    }

    @Time T2, lets say in another thread, graph_setup() is called with C,
    note that at T2, fs->mutex is unlocked.

    graph_stup(C...)
    {
      lock fs->mutex
      ....
      if (fs->next_subvol)                // which is B
          destroy subvol (fs->next_subvol)
      ....
      fs->next_subvol = C
      ....
      unlock fs->mutex
    }

    Thus at the end of this,
    fs->old_subvol = A;
    fs->active_subvol = C;
    fs->next_subvol = NULL;
    which is wrong, as B completed migration, but was destroyed by
    graph_setup, and C never was migrated.

    Solution:
    =========
    Any new graph can be in one of the 2 states:
    - Picked for migration, migration in progress (fs->mip_subvol)
    - Not picked so far for migration (fs->next_subvol)
    graph_setup() updates fs->next_subvol only, __glfs_active_subvol()
    moves fs->next_subvol to fs->mip_subvol and fs->next_subvol = NULL
    atomically, and then once the migration is complete, make that the
    fs->active_subvol
