Re: Question on merging zfs snapshot support into the mainline glusterfs

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

 



hi,
      Is there a plan to come up with an interface for snapshot functionality? For example, in handling different types of sockets in gluster all we need to do is to specify which interface we want to use and ib,network-socket,unix-domain sockets all implement the interface. The code doesn't have to assume anything about underlying socket type. Do you guys think it is a worthwhile effort to separate out the logic of interface and the code which uses snapshots? I see quite a few of if (strcmp ("zfs", fstype)) code which can all be removed if we do this. Giving btrfs snapshots in future will be a breeze as well, this way? All we need to do is implementing snapshot interface using btrfs snapshot commands. I am not talking about this patch per se. Just wanted to seek your inputs about future plans for ease of maintaining the feature.

That's related to stale lock issues on GlusterD which are there in 3.6.1
since the fixes landed in the branch post 3.6.1. I have already provided
the workaround/way to fix them [1]
