[PATCH v4 09/14] digest_cache: Add support for directories

From: Roberto Sassu <roberto.sassu at huawei.com>
In the environments where xattrs are not available (e.g. in the initial ram
disk), the digest_cache LSM cannot precisely determine which digest list in
a directory contains the desired reference digest. However, although
slower, it would be desirable to search the digest in all digest lists of
that directory.
This done in two steps. When a digest cache is being created,
digest_cache_create() invokes digest_cache_dir_create(), to generate the
list of current directory entries. Entries are placed in the list in
ascending order by the <seq num> if prepended to the file name, or at the
end of the list if not.
The resulting digest cache has the IS_DIR bit set, to distinguish it from
the digest caches created from regular files.
Second, when a digest is searched in a directory digest cache,
digest_cache_lookup() invokes digest_cache_dir_lookup_digest() to
iteratively search that digest in each directory entry generated by
digest_cache_dir_create().
That list is stable, even if new files are added or deleted from that
directory. A subsequent patch will invalidate the digest cache, forcing
next callers of digest_cache_get() to get a new directory digest cache with
the updated list of directory entries.
If the current directory entry does not have a digest cache reference,
digest_cache_dir_lookup_digest() invokes digest_cache_create() to create a
new digest cache for that entry. In either case,
digest_cache_dir_lookup_digest() calls then digest_cache_htable_lookup()
with the new/existing digest cache to search the digest. Check and
assignment of the digest cache in a directory entry is protected by the
per entry digest_cache_mutex.
The iteration stops when the digest is found. In that case,
digest_cache_dir_lookup_digest() returns the digest cache reference of the
current directory entry as the digest_cache_found_t type, so that callers
of digest_cache_lookup() don't mistakenly try to call digest_cache_put()
with that reference.
This new reference type will be used to retrieve information about the
digest cache containing the digest, which is not known in advance until the
digest search is performed.
The order of the list of directory entries influences the speed of the
digest search. A search terminates faster if less digest caches have to be
created. One way to optimize it could be to order the list of digest lists
in the same way of when they are requested at boot.
Finally, digest_cache_dir_free() releases the digest cache references
stored in the list of directory entries, and frees the list itself.
