This patch changes the backend selection method in CLI to prefer, in order:
  - a RAPI specification
  - a Luxi specification
  - and finally the node/instance files

It also modifies hspace and hbal to provide a ‘-L’ command line option
for enabling Luxi.

This patch adds a luxi backend that allows direct query of the master
daemon on the local node. This patch doesn't enable the backend to be
used.

There are a couple of things still missing in the implementation:
  - we don't have a master timeout in reads and writes, only a
	per-recv/send-call one
  - the failure reporting is not as good as it could be

The patch adds two constants in Types.hs for connect and query timeout,
then modifies Rapi.hs to use them as the connect and general curl
timeout.

Rapi could be improved more, as currently we wait double the total
timeout due to not aborting early in case the node queries failed.

This is basically a hspace release, so the changelog is small.

Currently hspace doesn't handle failures from tryAlloc correctly; this
patch changes the iterateDepth function in hspace to return a Result (…)
so that errors can be propagated correctly.

The patch also changes one output key to be more clear and a typo in
Cluster.hs

Currently, the tryAlloc and tryReloc function return a list with all the
results, both failures and successes. This is fine for hail, which does
one round of allocations, but is not so good for hspace, which does
iterative rounds; since at each (successful) step we only take the best
solution, it means that we're using lots of heap space to compute and
store node lists which are thrown away at the end of the step.

This patch changes these two functions and their callers in hail/hspace
to only return the best solution, and error/success counters. This
allows hspace to run in a much smaller space, and reduces GC cost
greatly.

Overall, it is a cleanup, as hail/hspace did a lot of work to chose this
best solution, whereas now it's automatically promoted within
Cluster.concatAllocs.

Currently the tryAlloc function calls the
allocateOnSingle/allocateOnPair and the builds a new tuple with those
functions's result plus the new node list. This is however suboptimal
in two respects:
  - the new nodes added are the 'old' versions of the respective nodes,
    so even though we don't use more than their names, it's logically
    broken
  - we do an extra unpack/repack of the result, while we could simply
    pass it through if allocateOnX returned the correct result

This patch makes the allocateOnX functions return the node list too and
also removes them and applyMove from the export list, as these are only
used within Cluster.hs.

Currently the Cluster.AllocSolution type is defined as a list of
‘(OpResult Node.list, …)’ and the results for applyMove are defined as
‘(OpResult Node.List, …)’. Both these means that the failure/success
indication is hidden in the first elements of this tuple, which makes is
harder to add other elements depending on the success/failure (like the
score for the new node list).

This patch moves the OpResult to outside of the tuple, in effect making
all these ‘OpResult (…)’ which makes the internal tuple elements
consistent. The patch is affecting the applyMove, tryAlloc and
tryRealloc functions, and only briefly the hail and hspace programs.

This uses hasktags for building emacs TAGS.

This (big) patch changes the output of hspace from text-format
(separated by ‘: ’) to a shell-snippet, in ‘key=value’ format.

This will allow sourcing the output or parsing it via awk/sed/etc.

Currently the instance count and cluster score are separated from the
other initial/final phase stats, even though they are very similar. This
patch moves computation of these two into totalResources/CStats and
removes special printing in hspace.

The recent OpResult and CPU values additions broke unittests.

This patch changes Cluster.totalResources to compute more resources and
prints them in hspace.

Currently many of the exit and warning conditions mistakenly display error
messages on stdout, which makes parsing the output of programs harder. This
patch attempts to fix such occurrences.

Currently the cluster score calculation includes an offline instance
percentage, expressed as “offline inst / (offline + online inst)”, which
results in NaN for empty clusters. This patch changes the calculation
such that clusters with no offline instances (this criteria includes
completely empty clusters) get a score of zero on this component of the
total score.

Currently hspace exits with an error if the cluster is not N+1 compliant
at the beginning of the run. This patch changes hspace such that this
condition is instead treated as a zero-allocation-possible, FailN1 mode.
This allows the same stats to be reported in this case as in the normal
case.

This is mostly for user-friendliness in the default mode, when we don't
specify the instance parameters.

This patch optimizes the stdDev function in two respects:
  - first, we don't do sum . map which builds an intermediate list, but
	instead use a fold over the list to build incrementally the sum;
	this should reduce both the time and space characteristics, as we
	have fewer objects created
  - second, we move from “a ^ 2” to “a * a” as the latter has a much
	simpler implementation and thus a higher performance

Since the ‘square’ function is obsoleted by the above the patch also
removes it.

Currently Loader.fixNodes is foldl' with a complicated function. It
makes more sense to take foldl' out of this function (and put it into
the caller) and let fixNodes be only this internal function.

This patch changes the function Cluster.computeMoves to use guards and a
couple of subexpressions in order to greatly simplify it.

This big patch cleans up the code per hlint indications. Many removals
of extra parentheses, replacements of concat . map with concabtMap,
extra dollar signs, eta reductions, etc. were performed.

The code still compiles and passes a couple of manual tests on sample
files. The individual changes are also small enough as to be visually
easy to confirm.

This patch enhances hspace to report why the allocation sequence
stopped, both in absolute error count and for the top reason.

This patch alters the Node.addPri/addSec to return correct failure data.
It removes the computeFailN1 function from the module as that used to
combine both mem and disk checks in the same function and thus the real
error reason cannot be deduced when using it.

Currently the allocation/move operations workflow return ‘Maybe a’,
which is very convenient but loses all details about the failure mode.

This patch introduces a new data type which encodes the specific failure
mode. It is not yet used correctly (e.g. all node operations result in
FailN1), but the workflow is updated. Most of the changes are in the
hail/hspace tools, the library code required only trivial adjustments.

hn1 was deprecated for a while and this patch removes it altogether. The
support code in Cluster.hs is also removed.

This adds two new stats - sum of reserved ram and disk.

This uses the newly-added Node.availDisk to compute the actual available
disk correctl, and display the total allocatable disk in hspace.

This function returns the amount of available disk, which depends on
whether a low disk limit has been configured or not and on the free disk
space of the node.

Currently we track the max disk usage/max vcpus as percentages, however
sometimes it's easier to check against minimum free disk or maximum
number of cpus, as units instead of percentages.

This patch adds two new variables, lo_dsk, hi_cpu, which are recomputed
whenever we change the m_dsk/m_cpu 'master' values.

Currently totalResources returns a 5-tuple of integers. This is not easy
to handle, as each change on the return type means that each caller must
be updated.

This patch adds a new type for cluster stats and uses that instead as
its return type. This simplifies its callers while complicating only a
little the computation of the stats.

The display of cluster resources is extracted into a separate function
and enhanced to display more stats.

This patch changes Cluster.totalResources to compute more details about
the cluster status, and enhances hspace to display more of these.

Currently hscan has a number of bugs:
  - doesn't add the common suffix (csf) to the instance's nodes
  - doesn't export the cpus for neither nodes nor instances
  - doesn't support single-node instances

This patch fixes these issues.
