patch follows :
* remove the restrictive -f flag.
Introduce a more generic "-m iopolicy" one.
* remove useless "int with_sysfs" in env struct
|
|
incremental to udev-016/extras/multipath-0.0.16.3,
* add a GROUP_BY_SERIAL flag. This should be useful for
controlers that activate their spare paths on simple IO
submition with a penalty. The StorageWorks HW defaults to
this mode, even if the MULTIBUS mode is OK.
* remove unused sg_err.c
* big restructuring : split devinfo.c from main.c. Export :
* void basename (char *, char *);
* int get_serial (int, char *);
* int get_lun_strings (char *, char *, char *, char *);
* int get_evpd_wwid(char *, char *);
* long get_disk_size (char *);
Now we see clearly what is expected from an external package
like scsi_id.
* stop passing struct env as param

ok I coded the suggested tool.
it works with the following rule :
KERNEL="dm-[0-9]*", PROGRAM="/sbin/devmap_name %M %m", NAME="%k", SYMLINK="%c"
I don't know if it's right to keep this tools packaged with multipath because
it's widely more general.
Maybe Joe should merge it in the device-mapper package or provide the
functionnality through dmsetup ?

incremental to udev-016/extras/multipath,
* don't rely on the linux symlink in the udev/klibc dir since
udev build doesn't use it anymore. This corrects build breakage
* remove make_dm_node fn & call. Rely on udev for this.
The first patch is to be applied.
The second is conditioned by udev dealing correctly with devmap names.
For this I can suggest a CALLOUT rule like this :
KERNEL=3D"dm-[0-9]*", PROGRAM=3D"/tmp/name_devmap %M %m", NAME=3D"%k", SY=
MLINK=3D"%c"
With name_devmap like :
#!/bin/sh
/usr/sbin/dmsetup ls|/bin/grep "$1, $2"|/usr/bin/awk '{print $1}'

Based on a patch from Svetoslav Slavtchev <svetljo@gmx.de>
|
|
incremental to 0.0.13,
* update the DM target synthax to the 2.6.0-udm5 style
* update the changelog and the doc to reflect minimal requirements
|
|
incremental to 0.0.12-1,
* check hotplug event refers to a block device; if not exit early
|
|
2003-12-29 multipath-012
* refresh doc
* add the uninstall target in Makefile
* /sbin/multipath, not /root/multipath in hotplug agent
|
|
incremental to 20031222-2,
2003-12-22 multipath-010
* tweak the install target in Makefile
* stop passing fds as argument : this change enable a strict
segregation of ugly 2.4 code
* sysfs version of get_lun_strings()
* be careful about the return of get_unique_id() since errors
formerly caught up by if(open()) in the caller fn are now returned
by get_unique_id()
* send get_serial() in unused.c
|
|
incremental to 20031222,
2003-12-22 multipath-010
* introduce dm-simplecmd for RESUME & SUSPEND requests
* split add_map() in setup_map() & dm-addmap()
* setup_map() correctly submits "SUSPEND-RELOAD-RESUME or CREATE"
sequences instead of the bogus "RELOAD or CREATE"

incremental to 20031220,
2003-12-22 multipath-010
* don't print .sg_dev if equal to .dev (2.6) in print_path()
* since the kernel code handles defective paths, remove all
code to cope with them :
* move do_tur() to unused.c
* remove .state from path struct
* remove .state settings & conditionals
* add a cmdline switch to force maps to failover mode,
ie 1 path per priority group
* add default policies to the whitelist array (spread io ==
MULTIBUS / io forced to 1 path == FAILOVER)
* move get_disk_size() call out of add_map() to coalesce()
* comment tricky coalesce() fn
* bogus unsused.c file renamed to unused.c

An important one, against stock udev-009 :
2003-12-20 multipath-010
* big ChangeLog update
* start to give a little control over target params :
introduce cmdline arg -i to control polling interval
* cope with hotplug-style calling convention :
ie "multipath scsi $DEVPATH" ... to avoid messing with
online maps not concerned by an event
* example hotplug agent to drop in /etc/hotplug.d/scsi
* revert the run & resched patch : unless someone proves me
wrong, this was overdesigned
* move commented out functions in unused.c
* update multipath target params to "udm[23] style"
* mp target now supports nr_path == 1, so do we
* add gratuitous free()
* push version forward
|
|
* Make the HW-specific get_unique_id switch pretty
* Prepare to field-test by whitelisting all known fibre array, try to
fetch WWID from the standard EVPD 0x83 off 8 for everyone ... we will
learn from feedback :)
Could you drop a note with the udev-009 release-notes asking for testing
this WWID fetching thing ?
|
|
* configure the multipath target with round-robin path selector and
conservative default for a start : yes it makes this release the first
really useful one.
* temporarily disable map creation for single path device due to current
restrictive defaults in the kernel target. Sistina should work it out.
* correct the strncmp logic in blacklist function.
Tested on StorageWorks with 2.6.0-test10-udm1 :

gee, that pretty fast :)

* update the Makefiles to autodetect libgcc.a & gcc includes
"ulibc-style". Factorisation of udevdirs & others niceties
* drop a hint about absent /dev/sd? on failed open() for poor Debian
users who don't imagine their favorite distro with only 16 preconfigured
SCSI device nodes :)
|
|
* implement a reschedule flag in /var/run. Last thing the prog do before
exit is check if a call to multipath was done (but canceled by
/var/run/multipath.run check) during its execution. If so restart the
main loop.
* implement a blacklist of sysfs bdev to not bother with for now (hd,
md, dm, sr, scd, ram, raw). This avoid sending SG_IO to unappropiate
devices.
Compiles & survive "while true;do (./multipath -v &);done"
|
|
* Adds a /var/run/multipath.run handling to avoid simultaneous runs.
* Remove a commented-out "printf"
|
|
here is the next update which brings this multipath to the state i'm not
ashamed of it being in udev :)
* drop a libdevmapper copy in extras/multipath; maybe discussions w/
Sistina folks will bring a better solution in the future.
* drop a putchar usage in libdevmapper to compile cleanly with klibc
* drop another such usage of my own in main.c
* massage the Makefile to compile libdevmapper against klibc
* use "ld" to produce the binary rather than "gcc -static"
* stop being stupid w/ uneeded major, minor & dev in main.c:dm_mk_node()
* reverse to creating striped target for now because the multipath
target is more hairy than expected initialy
* push the version code to 009 to be in synch w/ udev
builds & run here.
binary size is 43ko, which is fairly gratifying after all the efforts
I've put to compiling it with klibc :)
|
|
here is a clean-up patch :
* removes sg_err.[ch] deps
* makes sure the core code play nice with klibc
* port the sysfs calls to dlist helpers
* links against udev's sysfs (need libsysfs.a & dlist.a)
* finally define DM_TARGET as "multipath" as Joe posted the code today
(not tested yet)
* push version forward (do you want it in sync with udev version?)
libdevmapper doesn't play well with klibc, so I wasn't able to produce a
static binary yet. Help needed here ... as I don't want to fall back to
merge libdevmapper code in the core.
It compiles here and doesn't segfault.
