Hi all, This is the eighth revision of a patchset that adds to XFS kernel support for mapping multiple file logical blocks to the same physical block (reflink/deduplication), implements the beginnings of online metadata scrubbing and preening, and implements reverse mapping for the realtime device. There shouldn't be any incompatible on-disk format changes, pending a thorough review of the patches within. At the beginning of the set are patches to implement storing B+tree leaves in an inode root, since the realtime rmapbt is rooted in an inode, unlike the regular rmapbt which is rooted in an AG block. Prior to this, the only btree that could be rooted in the inode fork was the block mapping btree; if all the extent records fit in the inode, format would be switched from 'btree' to 'extents'. The next few patches widen the reverse mapping routines to fit the 64-bit numbers required to store information about the realtime device and establish a new b+tree type (rtrmapbt) for the realtime variant of the rmapbt. After that are a few patches to handle rooting the rtrmapbt in a specific inode that's referenced by the superblock. Finally, there are patches to implement GETFSMAP with the rtrmapbt and scrub functionality for the rtrmapbt and rtbitmap. If you're going to start using this mess, you probably ought to just pull from my github trees for kernel[1], xfsprogs[2], xfstests[3], xfs-docs[4], and man-pages[5]. The kernel patches in the git trees should apply to 4.8-rc3; xfsprogs patches to for-next; and xfstest to master. The patches have been xfstested with x64, ppc64, and armhf; all tests in the clone and rmap groups pass. AFAICT they don't cause any new failures for the 'auto' group. This is an extraordinary way to eat your data. Enjoy! Comments and questions are, as always, welcome. --D [1] https://github.com/djwong/linux/tree/djwong-devel [2] https://github.com/djwong/xfsprogs/tree/djwong-devel [3] https://github.com/djwong/xfstests/tree/djwong-devel [4] https://github.com/djwong/xfs-documentation/tree/djwong-devel [5] https://github.com/djwong/man-pages/tree/djwong-devel _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
