This replaces the current ioctl processing with a direct call path
from geom_dev() where the ioctl arrives (from SPECFS) to any directly
connected GEOM class.
The inverse of the above is no longer supported. This is the
situation were you have one or more intervening GEOM classes, for
instance a BSDlabel on top of a MBR or PC98. If you want to issue
MBR or PC98 specific ioctls, you will need to issue them on a MBR
or PC98 providers.
This paves the way for inviting CD's, FD's and other special cases
inside GEOM.
hinge on the "verb" parameter which the class gets to interpret as
it sees fit.
Move the entire request into the kernel and move changed parameters
back when done.
Use ->init() and ->fini() to handle the mutex in geom_disk.c
Remove the g_add_class() function and replace it with a standardized
g_modevent() function.
This adds the basic infrastructure for loading/unloading GEOM classes
test is built to test GEOM as running in the kernel.
This commit is basically "unifdef -D_KERNEL" to remove the mainly #include
related code to support the userland-harness.
event posting functions varargs to fill these.
Attribute g_call_me() to appropriate g_geom's where necessary.
Add a flag argument to g_call_me() methods which will be used to signal
cancellation of events in the future.
This commit should be a no-op.
have to examine the stats structure to tell if we have outstanding I/O
requests.
Making them u_int improves the chance of atomic updates to them,
but risks roll-over. Since the only interesting property is if
they are equal or not, this is not an issue.
and d_stripesisze;
Introduce si_stripesize and si_stripeoffset in struct cdev so we
can make the visible to clustering code.
Add stripesize and stripeoffset to providers.
DTRT with stripesize and stripeoffset in various places in GEOM.
Insted of embedding a struct g_stat in consumers and providers, merely
include a pointer.
Remove a couple of <sys/time.h> includes now unneeded.
Add a special allocator for struct g_stat. This allocator will allocate
entire pages and hand out g_stat functions from there. The "id" field
indicates free/used status.
Add "/dev/geom.stats" device driver whic exports the pages from the
allocator to userland with mmap(2) in read-only mode.
This mmap(2) interface should be considered a non-public interface and
the functions in libgeom (not yet committed) should be used to access
the statistics data.
Add debug.sizeof.g_stat sysctl.
Set the id field of the g_stat when we create consumers and providers.
Remove biocount from consumer, we will use the counters in the g_stat
structure instead. Replace one field which will need to be atomically
manipulated with two fields which will not (stat.nop and stat.nend).
Change add companion field to bio_children: bio_inbed for the exact
same reason.
Don't output the biocount in the confdot output.
Fix KASSERT in g_io_request().
Add sysctl kern.geom.collectstats defaulting to off.
Collect the following raw statistics conditioned on this sysctl:
for each consumer and provider {
total number of operations started.
total number of operations completed.
time last operation completed.
sum of idle-time.
for each of BIO_READ, BIO_WRITE and BIO_DELETE {
number of operations completed.
number of bytes completed.
number of ENOMEM errors.
number of other errors.
sum of transaction time.
}
}
API for getting hold of these statistics data not included yet.
and therefore we need a way for ioctl handlers to run in that thread
in GEOM. Rather than invent a complicated registration system to
recognize which ioctl handler to use for a given ioctl, we still
schedule all ioctls down the tree as bio transactions but add a
special return code that means "call me directly" and have the
geom_dev layer do that.
Use this for all ioctls that make it as far as a diskdriver to
avoid any backwards compatibility problems.
