.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The NetBSD generic disk framework is designed to provide flexible,
|
|
scalable, and consistent handling of disk state and metrics information.
|
|
The fundamental component of this framework is the
|
|
.Nm disk
|
|
structure, which is defined as follows:
|
|
.Bd -literal
|
|
struct disk {
|
|
TAILQ_ENTRY(disk) dk_link; /* link in global disklist */
|
|
char *dk_name; /* disk name */
|
|
int dk_bopenmask; /* block devices open */
|
|
int dk_copenmask; /* character devices open */
|
|
int dk_openmask; /* composite (bopen|copen) */
|
|
int dk_state; /* label state */
|
|
int dk_blkshift; /* shift to convert DEV_BSIZE to blks */
|
|
int dk_byteshift; /* shift to convert bytes to blks */
|
|
|
|
/*
|
|
* Metrics data; note that some metrics may have no meaning
|
|
* on certain types of disks.
|
|
*/
|
|
int dk_busy; /* busy counter */
|
|
u_int64_t dk_xfer; /* total number of transfers */
|
|
u_int64_t dk_seek; /* total independent seek operations */
|
|
u_int64_t dk_bytes; /* total bytes transfered */
|
|
struct timeval dk_attachtime; /* time disk was attached */
|
|
struct timeval dk_timestamp; /* timestamp of last unbusy */
|
|
struct timeval dk_time; /* total time spent busy */
|
|
|
|
struct dkdriver *dk_driver; /* pointer to driver */
|
|
|
|
/*
|
|
* Disk label information. Storage for the in-core disk label
|
|
* must be dynamically allocated, otherwise the size of this
|
|
* structure becomes machine-dependent.
|
|
*/
|
|
daddr_t dk_labelsector; /* sector containing label */
|
|
struct disklabel *dk_label; /* label */
|
|
struct cpu_disklabel *dk_cpulabel;
|
|
};
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The system maintains a global linked-list of all disks attached to the
|
|
system. This list, called
|
|
.Nm disklist ,
|
|
may grow or shrink over time as disks are dynamically added and removed
|
|
from the system. Drivers which currently make use of the detachment
|
|
capability of the framework are the
|
|
.Nm ccd
|
|
and
|
|
.Nm vnd
|
|
pseudo-device drivers.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The following is a brief description of each function in the framework:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width "disk_resetstat()"
|
|
.It Fn disk_init
|
|
Initialize the disklist and other data structures used by the framework.
|
|
Called by
|
|
.Fn main
|
|
before autoconfiguration.
|
|
.It Fn disk_attach
|
|
Attach a disk; allocate storage for the disklabel, set the
|
|
.Dq attached time
|
|
timestamp, insert the disk into the disklist, and intrement the
|
|
system disk count.
|
|
.It Fn disk_detach
|
|
Detatch a disk; free storage for the disklabel, remove the disk
|
|
from the disklist, and decrement the system disk count. If the count
|
|
drops below zero, panic.
|
|
.It Fn disk_busy
|
|
Increment the disk's
|
|
.Dq busy counter .
|
|
If this counter goes from 0 to 1, set the timestamp corresponding to
|
|
this transfer.
|
|
.It Fn disk_unbusy
|
|
Decrement a disk's busy counter. If the count drops below zero, panic.
|
|
Get the current time, subtract it from the disk's timestamp, and add
|
|
the difference to the disk's running total. Set the disk's timestamp
|
|
to the current time. If the provided byte count is greater than 0,
|
|
add it to the disk's running total and increment the number of transfers
|
|
performed by the disk.
|
|
.It Fn disk_resetstat
|
|
Reset the running byte, transfer, and time totals.
|
|
.It Fn disk_find
|
|
Return a pointer to the disk structure corresponding to the name provided,
|
|
or NULL if the disk does not exist.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The functions typically called by device drivers are
|
|
.Fn disk_attach ,
|
|
.Fn disk_detach ,
|
|
.Fn disk_busy ,
|
|
.Fn disk_unbusy ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn disk_resetstat .
|
|
The function
|
|
.Fn disk_find
|
|
is provided as a utility function.
|
|
.Sh USING THE FRAMEWORK
|
|
This section includes a description on basic use of the framework
|
|
and example usage of its functions. Actual implementation of
|
|
a device driver which utilizes the framework may vary.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
A special routine,
|
|
.Fn disk_init ,
|
|
is provided to perform basic initialization of data structures used by
|
|
the framework. It is called exactly once by the system, in
|
|
.Fn main ,
|
|
before device autoconfiguration.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Each device in the system uses a
|
|
.Dq softc
|
|
structure which contains autoconfiguration and state information for that
|
|
device. In the case of disks, the softc should also contain one instance
|
|
of the disk stucture, eg:
|
|
.Bd -literal
|
|
struct foo_softc {
|
|
struct device *sc_dev; /* generic device information */
|
|
struct disk *sc_dk; /* generic disk information */
|
|
[ . . . more . . . ]
|
|
};
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
In order for the system to gather metrics data about a disk, the disk must
|
|
be registered with the system. The
|
|
.Fn disk_attach
|
|
routine performs all of the functions currently required to register a disk
|
|
with the system including allocation of disklabel storage space,
|
|
recording of the time since boot that the disk was attached, and insertion
|
|
into the disklist. Note that since this function allocates storage space
|
|
for the disklabel, it must be called before the disklabel is read from the
|
|
media or used in any other way. Before
|
|
.Fn disk_attach
|
|
is called, a portions of the disk structure must be initialized with
|
|
data specific to that disk. For example, in the
|
|
.Dq foo
|
|
disk driver, the following would be performed in the autoconfiguration
|
|
.Dq attach
|
|
routine:
|
|
.Bd -literal
|
|
void
|
|
fooattach(parent, self, aux)
|
|
struct device *parent, *self;
|
|
void *aux;
|
|
{
|
|
struct foo_softc *sc = (struct foo_softc *)self;
|
|
[ . . . ]
|
|
|
|
/* Initialize and attach the disk structure. */
|
|
sc->sc_dk.dk_driver = &foodkdriver;
|
|
sc->sc_dk.dk_name = sc->sc_dev.dv_xname;
|
|
disk_attach(&sc->sc_dk);
|
|
|
|
/* Read geometry and fill in pertinent parts of disklabel. */
|
|
[ . . . ]
|
|
}
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm foodkdriver
|
|
above is the disk's
|
|
.Dq driver
|
|
switch. This switch currently includes a pointer to the disk's
|
|
.Dq strategy
|
|
routine. This switch needs to have global scope and sould be initialized
|
|
as follows:
|
|
.Bd -literal
|
|
void foostrategy __P((struct buf *));
|
|
struct dkdriver foodkdriver = { foostrategy };
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Once the disk is attached, metrics may be gathered on that disk. In order
|
|
to gather metrics data, the driver must tell the framework when the disk
|
|
starts and stops operations. This functionality is provided by the
|
|
.Fn disk_busy
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn disk_unbusy
|
|
routines. The
|
|
.Fn disk_busy
|
|
routine should be called immediately before a command to the disk is
|
|
sent, eg:
|
|
.Bd -literal
|
|
void
|
|
foostart(sc)
|
|
struct foo_softc *sc;
|
|
{
|
|
[ . . . ]
|
|
|
|
/* Get buffer from drive's transfer queue. */
|
|
[ . . . ]
|
|
|
|
/* Build command to send to drive. */
|
|
[ . . . ]
|
|
|
|
/* Tell the disk framework we're going busy. */
|
|
disk_busy(&sc->sc_dk);
|
|
|
|
/* Send command to the drive. */
|
|
[ . . . ]
|
|
}
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
When
|
|
.Fn disk_busy
|
|
is called, a timestamp is taken if the disk's busy counter moves from
|
|
0 to 1, indicating the disk has gone from an idle to non-idle state.
|
|
Note that
|
|
.Fn disk_busy
|
|
must be called at
|
|
.Fn splbio .
|
|
At the end of a transaction, the
|
|
.Fn disk_unbusy
|
|
routine should be called. This routine performs some consistency checks,
|
|
such as ensuring that the calls to
|
|
.Fn disk_busy
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn disk_unbusy
|
|
are balanced. This routine also performs the actual metrics calculation.
|
|
A timestamp is taken, and the difference from the timestamp taken in
|
|
.Fn disk_busy
|
|
is added to the disk's total running time. The disk's timestamp is then
|
|
updated in case there is more than one pending transfer on the disk.
|
|
A byte count is also added to the disk's running total, and if greater than
|
|
zero, the number of transfers the disk has performed is incremented.
|
|
.Bd -literal
|
|
void
|
|
foodone(xfer)
|
|
struct foo_xfer *xfer;
|
|
{
|
|
struct foo_softc = (struct foo_softc *)xfer->xf_softc;
|
|
struct buf *bp = xfer->xf_buf;
|
|
long nbytes;
|
|
[ . . . ]
|
|
|
|
/*
|
|
* Get number of bytes transfered. If there is no buf
|
|
* associated with the xfer, we are being called at the
|
|
* end of a non-I/O command.
|
|
*/
|
|
if (bp == NULL)
|
|
nbytes = 0;
|
|
else
|
|
nbytes = bp->b_bcount - bp->b_resid;
|
|
|
|
[ . . . ]
|
|
|
|
/* Notify the disk framework that we've completed the transfer. */
|
|
disk_unbusy(&sc->sc_dk, nbytes);
|
|
|
|
[ . . . ]
|
|
}
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Like
|
|
.Fn disk_busy ,
|
|
.Fn disk_unbusy
|
|
must be called at
|
|
.Fn splbio .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
At some point a driver may wish to reset the metrics data gathered on a
|
|
particular disk. For this function, the
|
|
.Fn disk_resetstat
|
|
routine is provided.
