Thanks Avra,
I'll send this patch to gluster master in a while.

Hi Sriram,Sorry for the delay in response. I started going through the commits in the github repo. I finished going through the first commit, where you create a plugin structure and move code. Following is the commit link:FIrst of all, the overall approach of using plugins, and maintaining plugins that is used in the patch is in sync with what we had discussed. There are some gaps though, like in the zfs functions the snap brick is mounted without updating labels, and in restore you perform a zfs rollback, which significantly changes the behavior between how a lvm based snapshot and a zfs based snapshot.But before we get into these details, I would request you to kindly send this particular patch to the gluster master branch, as that is how we formally review patches, and I would say this particular patch in itself is ready for a formal review. Once we straighten out the quirks in this patch, we can significantly start moving the other dependent patches to master and reviewing them. Thanks.Regards,AvraP.S : Adding gluster-develOn 09/13/2016 01:14 AM, sriram@xxxxxxxxxxxxx wrote:Hi Avra,You'd time to look into the below request?SriramOn Thu, Sep 8, 2016, at 01:20 PM, sriram@xxxxxxxxxxxxx wrote:Hi Avra,Thank you.

Could you've a look if the approach is fine? I've not raised a official review request yet. Could you give an initial review of the model?Things done,- Created a new folder for glusterd plugins and added snapshot as a plugin. Like this,$ROOT/xlators/mgmt/glusterd/plugins + | + __ snapshot/src Moved LVM related snapshot implementation toxlators/mgmt/glusterd/plugins/snapshot/src/lvm-snapshot.c - Mostly isolated, glusterd code from snapshot implementation by using logging, error codes and messages from glusterd and libglusterfs.- This way, i though we could get complete isolation of snapshot plugin implementation which avoids most of compiler and linking dependency issues.- Created a library of the above like libgsnapshot.so and linking it with glusterd.so to get this working.- The complete isolation also makes us to avoid reverse dependency like some api's inside plugin/snapshot being dependent on glusterd.soTODO's :- Need to create glusterd_snapshot_ops structure which would be used to register snapshot related API's with glusterd.so.- Add command line snapshot plugin option, so that it picks up on compilation.- If any missed implementation for plugin.- Cleanup and get a review ready branch.Let me know if this looks ok? Or need to any more into the list.SriramOn Fri, Jul 22, 2016, at 02:43 PM, Rajesh Joseph wrote:On Thu, Jul 21, 2016 at 3:07 AM, Vijay Bellur <vbellur@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote:On 07/19/2016 11:01 AM, Atin Mukherjee wrote:

Hi Rajesh,
I'd thought about moving the zfs specific implementation to
something like
xlators/mgmt/glusterd/src/plugins/zfs-specifs-stuffs for the
inital go. Could you let me know if this works or in sync with
what you'd thought about?

Hi Sriram,
Sorry, I was not able to send much time on this. I would prefer you
move the code to
xlators/mgmt/glusterd/plugins/src/zfs-specifs-stuffs
How about having it under
xlators/mgmt/glusterd/plugins/snapshot/src/zfs-specifs- stuffs such that
in future if we have to write plugins for other features they can be
segregated?It would be nicer to avoid "specific-stuff" or similar from the naming. We can probably leave it at xlators/mgmt/glusterd/plugins/snapshot/src/zfs. The naming would be sufficient to indicate that code is specific to zfs snapshots. I don't think the directory would be named "zfs-specific_stuffs, instead zfs specific source file will come directly under "xlators/mgmt/glusterd/plugins/snapshot/src/". I think I should have been more clear, my bad. -Rajesh_______________________________________________ Gluster-devel mailing list
