5e2a209a27 Fix world after byacc import:
- old yacc(1) use to magicially append stdlib.h, while new one don't
- new yacc(1) do declare yyparse by itself, fix redundant declaration of
  'yyparse'

518dd4c0d9 After every activemap change flush disk's write cache, so that write
reordering won't make the actual write to be committed before marking
the coresponding extent as dirty.

It can be disabled in configuration file.

If BIO_FLUSH is not supported by the underlying file system we log a warning
and never send BIO_FLUSH again to that GEOM provider.

3db86c39ae Keep statistics on number of BIO_READ, BIO_WRITE, BIO_DELETE and BIO_FLUSH
requests as well as number of activemap updates.

Number of BIO_WRITEs and activemap updates are especially interesting, because
if those two are too close to each other, it means that your workload needs
bigger number of dirty extents. Activemap should be updated as rarely as
possible.

39526f7fb6 Increase default timeout from 5 seconds to 20 seconds. 5 seconds is definitely
to short under heavy load and I was experiencing those timeouts in my recent
tests.

e2eabb44d7 The proto API is a general purpose API, so don't use 'hast' in structures or
function names. It can now be used outside of HAST.

0b626a289e In hast.conf we define the other node's address in 'remote' variable.
This way we know how to connect to secondary node when we are primary.
The same variable is used by the secondary node - it only accepts
connections from the address stored in 'remote' variable.
In cluster configurations it is common that each node has its individual
IP address and there is one addtional shared IP address which is assigned
to primary node. It seems it is possible that if the shared IP address is
from the same network as the individual IP address it might be choosen by
the kernel as a source address for connection with the secondary node.
Such connection will be rejected by secondary, as it doesn't come from
primary node individual IP.

Add 'source' variable that allows to specify source IP address we want to
bind to before connecting to the secondary node.

8d7dcf14ff For secondary, set 2 * HAST_KEEPALIVE seconds timeout for incoming
connection so the worker will exit if it does not receive packets from
the primary during this interval.

8cd3d45ad9 Allow to compress on-the-wire data using two algorithms:
- HOLE - it simply turns all-zero blocks into few bytes header;
	it is extremely fast, so it is turned on by default;
	it is mostly intended to speed up initial synchronization
	where we expect many zeros;
- LZF - very fast algorithm by Marc Alexander Lehmann, which shows
	very decent compression ratio and has BSD license.

32ecf62028 Setup another socketpair between parent and child, so that primary sandboxed
worker can ask the main privileged process to connect in worker's behalf
and then we can migrate descriptor using this socketpair to worker.
This is not really needed now, but will be needed once we start to use
capsicum for sandboxing.

49499e981e Implement function that drops privileges by:
- chrooting to /var/empty (user hast home directory),
- setting groups to 'hast' (user hast primary group),
- setting real group id, effective group id and saved group id to 'hast',
- setting real user id, effective user id and saved user id to 'hast'.
At the end verify that those operations where successfull.

5bdff860e7 Because it is very hard to make fork(2) from threaded process safe (we are
limited to async-signal safe functions in the child process), move all hooks
execution to the main (non-threaded) process.

Do it by maintaining connection (socketpair) between child and parent
and sending events from the child to parent, so it can execute the hook.

This is step in right direction for others reasons too. For example there is
one less problem to drop privs in worker processes.

bbbb114cda Prepare configuration parsing code to be called multiple times:
- Don't exit on errors if not requested.
- Don't keep configuration in global variable, but allocate memory for
  configuration.
- Call yyrestart() before yyparse() so that on error in configuration file
  we will start from the begining next time and not from the place we left of.

5571414ca8 Fix a problem where hastd will stuck in recv(2) after sending request to
secondary, which died between send(2) and recv(2). Do it by adding timeout
to recv(2) for primary incoming and outgoing sockets and secondary outgoing
socket.

32115b105a Please welcome HAST - Highly Avalable Storage.
HAST allows to transparently store data on two physically separated machines
connected over the TCP/IP network. HAST works in Primary-Secondary
(Master-Backup, Master-Slave) configuration, which means that only one of the
cluster nodes can be active at any given time. Only Primary node is able to
handle I/O requests to HAST-managed devices. Currently HAST is limited to two
cluster nodes in total.

HAST operates on block level - it provides disk-like devices in /dev/hast/
directory for use by file systems and/or applications. Working on block level
makes it transparent for file systems and applications. There in no difference
between using HAST-provided device and raw disk, partition, etc. All of them
are just regular GEOM providers in FreeBSD.

For more information please consult hastd(8), hastctl(8) and hast.conf(5)
manual pages, as well as http://wiki.FreeBSD.org/HAST.
