* libgfchangelog: Fix example programsKotresh HR2015-07-024-2/+21

* libgfchangelog: cleanups on disconnectionVenky Shankar2015-03-241-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [WIP patch as of now, just needs a little tweak] A pending TODO in the code caused regressions to fail as bitrot daemons are spawned during volume start (equivalent to enabling bitrot by default). The problematic part that casued such failures is during brick disconnections with unsafe handling of event data structured in the code. With this patch, data structures are properly cleaned up with care taken to cleanup all accessors first. This also fixes potential memory leaks which was bluntly ignored before.

* libgfchangelog: Fix faulty reference to xlator contextVenky Shankar2015-03-241-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Problem: libgfchangelog initializes global xlator on library load (via constructor: _ctor) and mangles it's xlator context thereby messing with certain important members of the command structure. On receiving an RPC disconnection event, if the point-of-execution was in libgfchangelogs context, accessing ->cmd_args during RPC notify resulted in a segfault. Fix: Since the libarary needs to be able to work with processes that have a notion of an xlator (THIS in particular) and without it, care needs to be taken to allocate the global xlator when needed. Moreover, the actual fix is to use the correct xlator context in both cases. A new API is introduces when needs to be invoked by the conusmer (although this could have been done during register() call, keeping it a separate API makes thing flexible and easy). Test: The issue is observed when a brick process goes offline. This is triggered when test cases (.t's) are run in bulk, since each test essestially spawns bricks processes (on volume start) and terminates them (volume stop). Since bitrot daemon, as of now, spawns upon volume start, the issue is much observed when the volume is taken offline at the end of each test case. With this fix, running the basic and core test cases along with building the linux kernel has passed without daemon segfaults. Thanks to Johnny (rabhat@) for helping in debugging the issue (and with the fix :)).

* features/changelog: RPC'fy {libgf}changelogVenky Shankar2015-03-183-4/+89
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch introduces RPC based communication between the changelog translator and libgfchangelog. It replaces the old pathetic stream based interaction that existed earlier (due to time constraints :-/). Changelog, upon initialization starts a RPC server (rpcsvc) allowing clients to invoke a probe API as a bootup mechanism to request for event notifications. During probe, clients can choose an event filter specifying the type(s) of events they are interested in. As of now there is no way to change the event notification set once the probe RPC call is made, but that is easier to implement. The actual event notifications is done on a separate RPC session. The client (libgfchangelog) itself starts and RPC server which the changelog translator "connects back" during probe. Notifications are dispatched by a bunch of threads from the server (translator) and the client optionally orders them if ordered notifications are requried. FOPs fill in their respective event details in a buffer (rot-buffs to be particular) and a bunch of threads (consumers) swap the buffers out of roatation and dispatch them via RPC. To avoid writer starvation, then number of dispatcher threads is one less than the number of buffer list in rot-buffs.x libgfchangelog becomes purely callback based -- upon event notification from the server (and re-ordering them if required) invoke a callback routine specified by consumer(s). A major part of the patch is also aimed at providing backward compatibility for geo-replication, which was one of the main consumer of the stream based API. Also, this patch does not\ "turn on" event notifications for all fops, just a bunch which is currently in requirement. Another pain point is that the server does not filter events before dispatching it to the clients. That load is taken up by the client itself (although it's done at the library layer rather than making it hard on the callback implementor). This needs improvement and care needs to be taken to not load the server up with expensive filtering mechanisms.

* features/changelog : historical journal consumption.Venky Shankar2014-05-141-0/+109
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Facilitates Glusterfs with the ability to detect file-operations happened in past by scanning the back-end(brick-level) glusterfs journal (changelog). Design: * List of changelogs produces in one perfectly running session are stored in htime file which also holds necessary information about the session start and end time. * Involves fixed sized seeks to identify N'th changelog in the list. * Requires O(log n), (where n is number of changelogs in the list), time to identify the end changelog for the given start-end time interval. Currently the background processing of changelogs is sub optimal. BZ 1097041 tracks the development effort.

* features/changelog: changelog translatorAvra Sengupta2013-07-223-0/+183
This is the initial version of the Changelog Translator. What is it ----------- Goal is to capture changes performed on a GlusterFS volume. The translator needs to be loaded on the server (bricks) and captures changes in a plain text file inside a configured directory path (controlled by "changelog-dir", should be somewhere in <export>/.glusterfs/changelog by default). Changes are classified into 3 types: - Data: : TYPE-I - Metadata : TYPE-II - Entry : TYPE-III Changelog file is rolled over after a certain time interval (defauls to 60 seconds) after which a changelog is started. The thing to be noted here is that for a time interval (time slice) multiple changes for an inode are recorded only once (ie. say for 100+ writes on an inode that happens within the time slice has only a single corresponding entry in the changelog file). That way we do not bloat up the changelog and also save lots of writes. Changelog Format ----------------- TYPE-I and TYPE-II changes have the gfid on the entity on which the operation happened. TYPE-III being a entry op requires the parent gfid and the basename. Changelog format has been kept to a minimal and it's upto the consumers to do the heavy loading of figuring out deletes, renames etc.. A single changelog file records all three types of changes, with each change starting with an identifier ("D": DATA, "M": METADATA and "E": ENTRY). Option is provided for the encoding type (See TUNABLES). Consumers ---------- The only consumer as of today would be geo-replication, although backup utilities, self-heal, bit-rot detection could be possible consumers in the future. CLI ---- By default, change-logging is disabled (the translator is present in the server graph but does nothing). When enabled (via cli) each brick starts to log the changes. There are a set of tunable that can be used to change the translators behaviour: - enable/disable changelog (disabled by default) gluster volume set <volume> changelog {on|off} - set the logging directory (<brick>/.glusterfs/changelogs is the default) gluster volume set <volume> changelog-dir /path/to/dir - select encoding type (binary (default) or ascii) gluster volume set <volume> encoding {binary|ascii} - change the rollover time for the logs (60 secs by default) gluster volume set <volume> rollover-time <secs> - when secs > 0, changelog file is not open()'d with O_SYNC flag - and fsync is trigerred periodically every <secs> seconds. gluster volume set <volume> fsync-interval <secs> features/changelog: changelog consumer library (libgfchangelog) A shared library is provided for the consumer of the changelogs for easy acess via APIs. Application can link against this library and request for changelog updates. Conversion of binary logs to human-readable ascii format is also taken care by the library which keeps a copy of the changelog in application provided working directory.
