Problem:
Directory vxattrs like ceph.dir.pin* and ceph.dir.layout* may not be
propagated to the client as frequently to keep them updated. This
creates vxattr availability problems.

Solution:
Adds new getvxattr op to fetch ceph.dir.pin*, ceph.dir.layout* and
ceph.file.layout* vxattrs.
If the entire layout for a dir or a file is being set, then it is
expected that the layout be set in standard JSON format. Individual
field value retrieval is not wrapped in JSON. The JSON format also
applies while setting the vxattr if the entire layout is being set in
one go.
As a temporary measure, setting a vxattr can also be done in the old
format. The old format will be deprecated in the future.

What guarantee do you have that "session" will still be a valid pointer
by the time you get to dereferencing it here?

I think this loop needs some locking (as Xiubo pointed out in his
earlier review).

What is this? Why not always service this locally?

yeah, thanks for pointing that out
I'm trying to wrap the entire processing of this function inside a
mutex_unlock(&mdsc->mutex) ... but the mount command fails
to mount if done so. If code is not wrapped in mutex lock...unlock
then the mount is successful.
It's a surprise that the code doesn't deadlock under the mutex
lock...unlock and gracefully fails with a message.
Any hints on what I could be missing.

vxattr handling is planned to be moved to the MDS side.
As I've pointed out to Xiubo, there's a few new things that have been done for
layout vxattr management. Also, as per your original tracker, ceph.dir.pin*
can't be handled locally.
getvxattr() currently handles:
1. ceph.dir.layout*
2. ceph.file.layout*
3. ceph.dir.pin*

If kclient is new and the cluster is old, then layout vxattr will be
handled the old
way, i.e. locally. ceph.dir.pin* will remain inaccessible.

The above seems will include the 'ceph.dir.layout', 'ceph.file.layout' 
and 'ceph.dir.pin' ? All these have been handled in 'ceph_file_vxattrs' 
and 'ceph_dir_vxattrs'...

And the code above will always force kclient to get all the 'ceph.XXX' 
xattrs from MDS ?

yes, the kclient will always get vxattr values from MDS
for old cluster, op will be handled locally

Jeff has a proposal to expose the JSON output variety of layout
vxattr vlaue via new vxattr altogether
eg. ceph.dir.layout_json and ceph.file.layout_json

+1 -- that looks cleaner than mixing up delimiters

the client doesn't recognize a vxattr name. IOW, we should only call the
MDS after ceph_match_vxattr doesn't match an xattr name.

I had incorrectly recalled that the client did return json for the
layout xattrs. So, yes, we can't just switch to json for these
existing vxattrs. I agree adding a "json" extension cleanly avoids the
issue. We can continue handling the existing layout vxattrs without
the suffix in the client (for now).

Although, I do think ".json" is a little weird. I had privately
expressed to Jeff/Milind that "!json" or similar as a suffix could be
more appropriate. It emphasizes it's not a derivative xattr.
