of a real component failure (or a simulated failure):
- add 'numNewFailures' to keep track of the number of disk failures
since mod_counter was last updated for each component label.
- make sure we call rf_update_component_labels() upon any component failure,
real or simulated.
- make current default label values available everywhere
- make sure numBlocks and blockSize in component labels get initialized
for all component labels
- check for component size to be smaller than or equal to the partition size
when autoconfiguring
- make component_label variables more consistent (==> clabel)
- re-work incorrect component configuration code
- re-work disk configuration code
- cleanup initial configuration of raidPtr info
- add auto-detection of components and RAID sets (Disabled, for now)
- allow / on RAID sets (Disabled, for now)
- rename "config_disk_queue" to "rf_ConfigureDiskQueue" and properly prototype
in rf_diskqueue.h
- protect some headers with #if _KERNEL (XXX this needs to be fixed properly)
and cleanup header formatting.
- expand the component labels (yes, they should be backward/forward compatible)
- other bits and pieces (some function names are still bogus, and will get
changed soon)
from the tsleep()'s (they probably shouldn't have been there in the
first place!). Making parity re-writing and copybacks interruptable
will require re-designing how a few things are done (e.g. how memory
is freed for structures shipped off to routines that run asynchronously
relative to the calling routine). Fix a few other tsleep's while we're at it.
out-dated comments, and other unneeded stuff. This helps prepare
for cleaning up the rest of the code, and adding new functionality.
No functional changes to the kernel code in this commit.
reads. This avoids a problem where many writes will cause the driver
to allocate way too much memory.
This needs to change to a queueing system later, which will provide a
way to limit the memory consumed by the driver.
Without these changes, raidframe would use 24M or more on my machine when
the buffer cache dumped all its dirty blocks. Now it uses around 200k
or so.
Carnegie Mellon University. Full RAID implementation, including
levels 0, 1, 4, 5, 6, parity logging, and a few other goodies.
