* gluster-block: clean block_exec procedurePrasanna Kumar Kalever2017-01-301-15/+0
| | | | | | | | This was a hack to implement list and info commands, now that both list and info reads the metadata from the volume, we don't need block_exec anymore. Signed-off-by: Prasanna Kumar Kalever <prasanna.kalever@redhat.com>

* gluster-block: listen on unix and inetPrasanna Kumar Kalever2017-01-301-6/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | from now We basically have 2 RPC connections, 1. Between gluster block CLI and local gluster-blockd This connection is basically UNIX/local netid ,listening on /var/run/gluster-blockd.socket file. The CLI always Send/Receive the commands to/from the local gluster-blockd via local rpc. 2. Between gluster-blockd's, i.e local (to cli) gluster-blockd and the gluster-blockd's running on remote(blockhost) This is the tcp connection. The rpc requests are listening on 24006 Also from now gluster-blockd is multi threaded (As of now 2 threads) Lets consider the Create Request to understand what each thread solves Thread1 (THE CLI THREAD) * Listening on local RPC * Generate the GBID (UUID) and create the entry with name GBID in the given volume with a requested size. * And Send the Configuration requests to remote hosts, waits for the replies (HINt: after this point Read Thread2 and come back) * Return to CLI. Thread 2 (THE SERVER THREAD) * Listens on 24006 * On Receiving an event, read the structure. * Executes the required "targetcli bla bla bla" command locally * Fills the command exitcode and the output in the RPC reply structure and send reply Signed-off-by: Prasanna Kumar Kalever <prasanna.kalever@redhat.com>
* gluster-blockd: daemonize the utilityPrasanna Kumar Kalever2017-01-161-0/+25
this patch, deprecate ssh way of communicating between server nodes/pods Reason: ssh way is hard to be accepted in container world (Kube). An another option kubeExec way seems to be a bit weird, to have uniform way of communication in container and non container worlds, we prefer RPC. From now we communicate via RPC, using a static port 24009 Hence, we have two components, server component -> gluster-blockd (daemon) client component -> gluster-block (cli) Signed-off-by: Prasanna Kumar Kalever <prasanna.kalever@redhat.com>
