Meeting Minutes

Working in Progress or Completed

cl_lock re-factoring (simplified and cache-less) DONE

LU-3259 cl_lock re-factoring The cl_lock is necessary because it communicates the DLM lock for a specific IO. The current implementation is highly complex. This work will write a simplified cl_lock. The new lock will be cache-less and replace the current implementation.

function calls implementation STARTED

LU-5823 Replace some obsolete obd operations with CLIO ioctl interfaceOBD API operations for read, write, setattr, getattr, etc. became obsolete after MDT, OFD and client reconstructing were completed. This work removes these redundant operations.

Remove lov_stripe_md (LSM) direct access beyond LOV layer STARTED

LU-5814 encapsulate lov_stripe_md (LSM) to LOV layer The current CLIO implementation has a good interface to file layout operations. Legacy code still exists that does not use this interface. The code that does not use the file layout interface will be reviewed and targeted for removal or re-design to use the file layout interface.

Planning Review Landed
13426 LU-5814 obd: remove unused LSM parameters 12442 LU-5814 lov: remove LL_IOC_RECREATE_{FID,OBJ}
13644 LU-5814 lov: add lov_object_xattr_get() 12446 LU-5814 echo: remove userspace LSM handling
13680 LU-5814 lov: add cl_object_layout_get() 12445 LU-5814 lov: remove unused {get,set}_info handlers
13690 LU-5814 llite: replace lli_has_smd with lli_layout_type 12447 LU-5418 echo: replace lov_stripe_md with lov_oinfo
13694 LU-5814 llite: add cl_object_maxbytes() 12618 LU-5814 llite: remove ll_objects_destroy()

13696 LU-5814 lov: move LSM to LOV layer

NOTE: struct obd_info:oi_md cannot be removed now because of inter-dependencies between clean-up patches.

NOTE: Remove lov_packmd and lov_unpackmd.

Remove non-linux interfaces STARTED

Two parts

Remove some cfs_ prefixed functions. DONE

Planning Review Landed
NON-INTEL: 6956 LU-1346 libcfs: cleanup libcfs primitive (linux-prim.h)
NON-INTEL: 11797 LU-3963 libcfs: remove last of cfs list wrappers
NON-INTEL: 11797 LU-3963 libcfs: remove last of cfs list wrappers
NON-INTEL: 13070 LU-3963 libcfs: Use kernel's strncasecmp and remove cfs_get_blocked_sigs

NOTE:

  • cfs_snprintf() does have uses, not equivilent to snprintf(), will remain.
  • cfs_hlist* are needed for Linux kernel compatibility and will remain.

Remove ccc_ layer STARTED

LU-5971 removal of ccc_ layerWith the removal of liblustre, the ccc_ layer is redundant and complex. The remaining useful functions will be merged into vfs vm posix layer and the ccc_ layer will be removed.

Planning Review Landed
13318 LU-5971 llite: reorganize {llite,vvp}_internal.h 12592 LU-5971 llite: merge lclient.h into llite/vvp_internal.h

13363 LU-5971 llite: use vui prefix for struct vvp_io members
13376 LU-5971 llite: move vvp_io functions to vvp_io.c
13377 LU-5971 llite: rename ccc_req to vvp_req

Cleanup obsolete OBD methods

OBD API operations for read, write, setattr, getattr, etc because obsolete after MDT, OFD and client restructuring were completed. Redundant code remains in CLIO and interfaces that are not referenced by any module will be targeted for removal.

Planning Review Landed
Remove lov_setattr_async. 13426 LU-5814 obd: remove unused LSM parameters
13422

NOTE: o_create, o_destroy are still in use by the echo code. Their LSM parameters have been removed.

Regressions

Planning Review Landed
Move definition of LDLM_GID_ANY to lustre_dlm.h
LU-6046 audit comments in cl_object.h

Change requests

004-001 CLIO ioctl's should be functions

CHANGE REQUEST: 004-001 CLIO ioctl's should be functions.

BACKGROUND: Ioctl calls were included in the CLIO Simplification design to replace some obsolete ODB operations. Alternatively, individual functions can replace the ODB operations instead.

CHANGE: Do not implement ioctl calls. Implement functions.

ACTIONS REQUIRED:

  • Ensure none of the current patches are land.
  • Update the design document with the new design.
  • Update the ticket LU-5823 with new activity.
  • Execute work to complete LU-5823.
