Hi, Two major progress: 1) .ctr accepts segment size so .ctr now accepts 3 arguments: <backing dev> <cache dev> <segment size order>. 2) fold the small files splitted that I suggested in the previous progress report. For 1) I use zero length array to dynamically accept the segment size. writeboost had the parameter embedded previously and one must re-compile the code to change the parameter which badly loses usability was the problem. For 2) > Unfortunately I think you went too far with all these different small > files, I was hoping to see 2 or 3 .c files and a couple .h files. > > Maybe fold all the daemon code into a 1 .c and 1 .h ? > > The core of the writeboost target in dm-writeboost-target.c ? > > And fold all the other data structures into a 1 .c and 1 .h ? > > When folding these files together feel free to use dividers in the code > like dm-thin.c and dm-cache-target.c do, e.g.: > > /*-----------------------------------------------------------------*/ As Mike pointed out splitting into almost 20 files went too far. I aggregated these files into 3 .c files and 3 .h files in total which are shown below. ---------- Summary ---------- 39 dm-writeboost-daemon.h 46 dm-writeboost-metadata.h 413 dm-writeboost.h 577 dm-writeboost-daemon.c 1129 dm-writeboost-metadata.c 1212 dm-writeboost-target.c 81 dm-writeboost.mod.c The responsibilities of each .c file is the policy of this splitting. a) dm-writeboost-metadata.c This file knows how the metadata is laid out on cache device. It can audit/format the cache device metadata and resume/free the in-core cache metadata from that on the cache device. Also provides accessor to the in-core metadata resumed. b) dm-writeboost-target.c This file contains all the methods to define target type. In terms of I/O processing, this files only defines from when bio is accepted to when flush job is queued which is described as "foreground processing" in the document. What happens after the job is queued is defined in -daemon.c file. c) dm-writeboost-daemon.c This file contains all the daemons as Mike suggested. Maybe, superblock_recorder should be in the -metadata.c file but I chose to put it on this file since for unity. Thanks, Akira followed by the current .h files. ---------- dm-writeboost-daemon.h ---------- /* * Copyright (C) 2012-2013 Akira Hayakawa <ruby.wktk@xxxxxxxxx> * * This file is released under the GPL. */ #ifndef DM_WRITEBOOST_DAEMON_H #define DM_WRITEBOOST_DAEMON_H /*----------------------------------------------------------------*/ void flush_proc(struct work_struct *);
