[PATCH v4 05/21] cachefiles: implement on-demand read

From: Jeffle Xu
Date: Mon Mar 07 2022 - 07:33:48 EST


Implement the data plane of on-demand read mode.

A new NETFS_READ_HOLE_ONDEMAND flag is introduced to indicate that
on-demand read should be done when a cache miss encountered. In this
case, the read routine will send a READ request to user daemon, along
with the anonymous fd and the file range that shall be read. Now user
daemon is responsible for fetching data in the given file range, and
then writing the fetched data into cache file with the given anonymous
fd.

After sending the READ request, the read routine will hang there, until
the READ request is handled by user daemon. Then it will retry to read
from the same file range. If a cache miss is encountered again on the
same file range, the read routine will fail then.
