[PATCH 0/2] [Target_Core_Mod]: Add hyrid PR APTPL/ConfigFS support.

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

 



Greetings folks,

This patch adds complete running support for persistent reservations feature:
Activate Persist across Target Power Loss (APTPL) against all of spc4r17
defined PROUT service actions in lio-core-2.6.git.  This patch has been tested with
PROUT service actions REGISTER, RESERVE, RELEASE, CLEAR, PREEMPT_AND_ABORT and
REGISTER_AND_MOVE (restarting the entire target configfs fabric each step and rebuilding)
from a IBLOCK exported LVM dm block device on v2.6.31-rc5 x86 HVM.

These patches uses a approach that writes out PR metadata in key-value pairs via a pre-allocated
buffer using fabric module dependent code during the various APTPL commit points while running
PROUT service action logic to struct file in /var/target/pr/aptpl_$T10_UNIT_SERIAL.  It then parses
the key=value pairs and makes them comma seperated values in userspace and then into configfs via
/sys/kernel/config/target/core/$HBA/$DEV/pr/res_aptpl_metadata.  From there the PR registrations+reservation
are checked and processed as fabric module LUN ACLs are created with matching PR APTPL metadata as the
configfs fabric is rebuilt upon normal target setup, and put into effect using existing
drivers/target/target_core_pr.c code.

Here is what it looks like with a initial set of REGISTER -> RESERVE ->
PREEMPT_AND_ABORT -> REGISTER_AND_MOVE calls with then /etc/init.d/target restart
using a dm LVM block device exported via TCM+LIO-Target iSCSI ports on v2.6.31-rc5 x86 HVM.
Here is what it looks like after successfully completing the REGISTER_AND_MOVE with APTPL=1

*) Metadata gets parsed with tcm_node.py --praptpl and written to configfs on restart:

*) As fabric module initiator LUN ACLs get added (iSCSI Initiator LUN access in LIO-Target's case),
   the PR operations take effect:

*) Now check the running 'live' PR metadata, the saved APTPL metadata has been successfully reloaded:

   target# tcm_node --pr iblock_0/lvm_test0
   APTPL Bit Status: Activated
   Ready to process PR APTPL metadata..

   SPC-3 Reservation: Relative Port Identifer Tag: 2 iSCSI Portal Group Tag: 1 iSCSI Logical Unit: 0
   SPC-3 PR Registrations:

   SPC-3 Reservation Type: Write Exclusive Access, Registrants Only
   SPC3_PERSISTENT_RESERVATIONS

*) And finally from the initiator, check PROUT REPORT_CAPABILITIES for APTPL_C and APTPL_A:

   initiator# sg_persist --in --device /dev/sde --report-capabilities
      LIO-ORG  IBLOCK  3.0
      Peripheral device type: disk
    Report capabilities response:

     All Target Ports Capable(ATP_C): 1
     Persist Through Power Loss Capable(PTPL_C): 1
     Type Mask Valid(TMV): 1
     Allow commands: 1
         Persist Through Power Loss Active(PTPL_A): 1
           Support indicated in Type mask:
         Write Exclusive, all registrants: 1
         Exclusive Access, registrants only: 1
         Write Exclusive, registrants only: 1
         Exclusive Access: 1
         Write Exclusive: 1
         Exclusive Access, all registrants: 1
