The rbd device structure has up to now contained information about the rbd image (and possibly snapshot id) that backs it as well as the device interface it represents in Linux when it is mapped. In order to add layering support we're going to want to separate the mapping information from the image information more clearly. This was begun recently but these two patches do the bulk of the movement of the rest of the mapping-related fields. -Alex [PATCH 1/2] rbd: move dev_id and list links into mapping [PATCH 2/2] rbd: move more stuff into mapping -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe ceph-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
