| Currently all the work directed toward the lustre upstream client is tracked |
| at the following link: |
| |
| https://jira.hpdd.intel.com/browse/LU-9679 |
| |
| Under this ticket you will see the following work items that need to be |
| addressed: |
| |
| ****************************************************************************** |
| * libcfs cleanup |
| * |
| * https://jira.hpdd.intel.com/browse/LU-9859 |
| * |
| * Track all the cleanups and simplification of the libcfs module. Remove |
| * functions the kernel provides. Possible intergrate some of the functionality |
| * into the kernel proper. |
| * |
| ****************************************************************************** |
| |
| https://jira.hpdd.intel.com/browse/LU-100086 |
| |
| LNET_MINOR conflicts with USERIO_MINOR |
| |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| |
| https://jira.hpdd.intel.com/browse/LU-8130 |
| |
| Fix and simplify libcfs hash handling |
| |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| |
| https://jira.hpdd.intel.com/browse/LU-8703 |
| |
| The current way we handle SMP is wrong. Platforms like ARM and KNL can have |
| core and NUMA setups with things like NUMA nodes with no cores. We need to |
| handle such cases. This work also greatly simplified the lustre SMP code. |
| |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| |
| https://jira.hpdd.intel.com/browse/LU-9019 |
| |
| Replace libcfs time API with standard kernel APIs. Also migrate away from |
| jiffies. We found jiffies can vary on nodes which can lead to corner cases |
| that can break the file system due to nodes having inconsistent behavior. |
| So move to time64_t and ktime_t as much as possible. |
| |
| ****************************************************************************** |
| * Proper IB support for ko2iblnd |

| ****************************************************************************** |
| * sysfs/debugfs fixes |
| * |
| * https://jira.hpdd.intel.com/browse/LU-8066 |
| * |
| * The original migration to sysfs was done in haste without properly working |
| * utilities to test the changes. This covers the work to restore the proper |
| * behavior. Huge project to make this right. |
| * |
| ****************************************************************************** |
| |
| https://jira.hpdd.intel.com/browse/LU-9431 |
| |
| The function class_process_proc_param was used for our mass updates of proc |
| tunables. It didn't work with sysfs and it was just ugly so it was removed. |
| In the process the ability to mass update thousands of clients was lost. This |
| work restores this in a sane way. |
| |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| https://jira.hpdd.intel.com/browse/LU-9091 |
| |
| One the major request of users is the ability to pass in parameters into a |
| sysfs file in various different units. For example we can set max_pages_per_rpc |
| but this can vary on platforms due to different platform sizes. So you can |
| set this like max_pages_per_rpc=16MiB. The original code to handle this written |
| before the string helpers were created so the code doesn't follow that format |
| but it would be easy to move to. Currently the string helpers does the reverse |
| of what we need, changing bytes to string. We need to change a string to bytes. |
| |
| ****************************************************************************** |
| * Proper user land to kernel space interface for Lustre |
| * |
| * https://jira.hpdd.intel.com/browse/LU-9680 |
| * |
| ****************************************************************************** |
| |
| https://jira.hpdd.intel.com/browse/LU-8915 |
| |
| Don't use linux list structure as user land arguments for lnet selftest. |
| This code is pretty poor quality and really needs to be reworked. |
| |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| |
| https://jira.hpdd.intel.com/browse/LU-8834 |
| |
| The lustre ioctl LL_IOC_FUTIMES_3 is very generic. Need to either work with |
| other file systems with similar functionality and make a common syscall |
| interface or rework our server code to automagically do it for us. |
| |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| |
| https://jira.hpdd.intel.com/browse/LU-6202 |
| |
| Cleanup up ioctl handling. We have many obsolete ioctls. Also the way we do |
| ioctls can be changed over to netlink. This also has the benefit of working |
| better with HPC systems that do IO forwarding. Such systems don't like ioctls |
| very well. |
| |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| |
| https://jira.hpdd.intel.com/browse/LU-9667 |
| |
| More cleanups by making our utilities use sysfs instead of ioctls for LNet. |
| Also it has been requested to move the remaining ioctls to the netlink API. |
| |
| ****************************************************************************** |
| * Misc |
| ****************************************************************************** |
| |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| https://jira.hpdd.intel.com/browse/LU-9855 |
| |
| Clean up obdclass preprocessor code. One of the major eye sores is the various |
| pointer redirections and macros used by the obdclass. This makes the code very |
| difficult to understand. It was requested by the Al Viro to clean this up before |
| we leave staging. |
| |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| |
| https://jira.hpdd.intel.com/browse/LU-9633 |
| |
| Migrate to sphinx kernel-doc style comments. Add documents in Documentation. |
| |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| |
| https://jira.hpdd.intel.com/browse/LU-6142 |
| |
| Possible remaining coding style fix. Remove deadcode. Enforce kernel code |
| style. Other minor misc cleanups... |
| |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| |
| https://jira.hpdd.intel.com/browse/LU-8837 |
| |
| Separate client/server functionality. Functions only used by server can be |
| removed from client. Most of this has been done but we need a inspect of the |
| code to make sure. |
| |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| |
| https://jira.hpdd.intel.com/browse/LU-8964 |
| |
| Lustre client readahead/writeback control needs to better suit kernel providings. |
| Currently its being explored. We could end up replacing the CLIO read ahead |
| abstract with the kernel proper version. |
