* libglusterfs changes to add new fop
* Fuse changes:
- Changes in fuse bridge xlator to receive and send responses
* posix changes to perform the op on the backend filesystem
* protocol and rpc changes for sending and receiving the fop
* gfapi changes for performing the fop
* tools: glfs-copy-file-range tool for testing copy_file_range fop
- Although, copy_file_range support has been added to the upstream
fuse kernel module, no release has been made yet of a kernel
which contains the support. It is expected to come in the
upcoming release of linux-4.20
So, as of now, executing copy_file_range fop on a fused based
filesystem results in fuse kernel module sending read on the
source fd and write on the destination fd.
Therefore a small gfapi based tool has been written to be able
test the copy_file_range fop. This tool is similar (in functionality)
to the example program given in copy_file_range man page.
So, running regular copy_file_range on a fuse mount point and
running gfapi based glfs-copy-file-range tool gives some idea about
how fast, the copy_file_range (or reflink) can be.
On the local machine this was the result obtained.
mount -t glusterfs workstation:new /mnt/glusterfs
[root@workstation ~]# cd /mnt/glusterfs/
[root@workstation glusterfs]# ls
file
[root@workstation glusterfs]# cd
[root@workstation ~]# time /tmp/a.out /mnt/glusterfs/file /mnt/glusterfs/new
real 0m6.495s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m1.439s
[root@workstation ~]# time glfs-copy-file-range $(hostname) new /tmp/glfs.log /file /rrr
OPEN_SRC: opening /file is success
OPEN_DST: opening /rrr is success
FSTAT_SRC: fstat on /rrr is success
copy_file_range successful
real 0m0.309s
user 0m0.039s
sys 0m0.017s
This tool needs following arguments
1) hostname
2) volume name
3) log file path
4) source file path (relative to the gluster volume root)
5) destination file path (relative to the gluster volume root)
"glfs-copy-file-range <hostname> <volume> <log file path> <source> <destination>"
- Added a testcase as well to run glfs-copy-file-range tool
* io-stats changes to capture the fop for profiling
* NOTE:
- Added conditional check to see whether the copy_file_range syscall
is available or not. If not, then return ENOSYS.
- Added conditional check for kernel minor version in fuse_kernel.h
and fuse-bridge while referring to copy_file_range. And the kernel
minor version is kept as it is. i.e. 24. Increment it in future
when there is a kernel release which contains the support for
copy_file_range fop in fuse kernel module.
