[PATCH v2 1/1] dm-raid45

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Heinz Mauelshagen <heinzm@xxxxxxxxxx>

Neil et al.,

finally got around to creating a followup (interim) patch, which allows
for changing the xor algorithn at runtime via the message interface,
hence allowing to test if the xor unrole optimization around the
supported algorithms is performing better than the assembler
optimized one in the kernel.

If we can prove my findings rigth, we could move those into
the crypto subsystem xor.

Syntax:
-------
dmsetup message $MappedDevice 0 xor $Algorithm $Chunks

$MappedDevice = whatever name you picked during creation
$Algorithm = { "xor_8", "xor_16", "xor_32", "xor_64", "xor_blocks" }
$Chunks = 2..N # N being the amount of stripes (eg. 5 with 5 disks)

Patch applies to clean mainline git 2.6.32-rc8.

Regards,
Heinz

+ * Linux 2.6 Device Mapper RAID4 and RAID5 target.
+ *
+ * Tested-by: Intel; Marcin.Labun@xxxxxxxxx, krzysztof.wojcik@xxxxxxxxx
+ *
+ *
+ * Supports the following ATARAID vendor solutions (and SNIA DDF):

+ * 	SNIA DDF1
+ * 	Hiphpoint 37x
+ * 	Hiphpoint 45x

+ *	NVidia RAID
+ *	Promise FastTrack
+ *	Silicon Image Medley
+ *	VIA Software RAID
+ *
+ * via the dmraid application.
+ *
+ *
+ * Features:
+ *
+ *	o RAID4 with dedicated and selectable parity device
+ *	o RAID5 with rotating parity (left+right, symmetric+asymmetric)
+ *	o recovery of out of sync device for initial
+ *	  RAID set creation or after dead drive replacement
+ *	o run time optimization of xor algorithm used to calculate parity
+ *
+ *
+ * Thanks to MD for:
+ *    o the raid address calculation algorithm
+ *    o the base of the biovec <-> page list copier.
+ *
+ *
+ * Uses region hash to keep track of how many writes are in flight to

+ *
+ *    o clean regions (those which are synchronized
+ * 	and don't have write io in flight)
+ *    o dirty regions (those with write io in flight)
+ *
+ *
+ * On startup, any dirty regions are migrated to the
+ * 'nosync' state and are subject to recovery by the daemon.
