The snapshot-merge target allows a snapshot to be merged back into the
snapshot's origin device.

One expected use of snapshot merging is the rollback of a root
filesystem after system upgrades (e.g.: yum update).  snapshot-merge
enables "system rollback" support for any filesystem that is using the
associated DM/LVM devices.

* "[PATCH v4 05/13] dm snapshot: add snapshot-merge target" adds further
  documentation to: Documentation/device-mapper/snapshot.txt

* All patch headers have been revised/audited for added clarity.

* Both the latest handover (v10) and origin-write patch have been
  included in this series.

* Aside from snapshot-merge specific testing these patches have
  survived 75+ iterations of lvm2's testsuite without any failures.
  The test kernel was 2.6.32-rc8 and lvm2 was 2.0.55 (with udev_sync
  enabled and dmeventd disabled).

The snapshot-merge quilt tree is maintained here:
http://people.redhat.com/msnitzer/patches/snapshot-merge/kernel/2.6.33/

For LVM2 support please see:
http://people.redhat.com/msnitzer/patches/snapshot-merge/lvm2/LVM2-2.02.55/

Mike Snitzer (3):
  dm snapshot: allow live exception store handover between tables
  dm exception store: snapshot-merge usage accounting
  dm snapshot: merge a linear region of chunks using one large IO

Mikulas Patocka (10):
  dm snapshot: rework writing to snapshot origin
  dm exception store: add snapshot-merge specific methods
  dm snapshot: add snapshot-merge target
  dm snapshot: merge target should not allocate new exceptions
  dm snapshot: do not allow more than one merging snapshot.
  dm snapshot: the merge procedure
  dm snapshot: queue writes to an area that is actively being merged
  dm snapshot: do not merge a chunk until active writes to it finish
  dm snapshot: make exceptions in other snapshots when merging
  dm snapshot: redirect accesses to origin if merging snap invalidated

Permit in-use snapshot exception data to be 'handed over' from one
snapshot instance to another.  This is a pre-requisite for patches
that allow the changes made in a snapshot device to be merged back into
its origin device and also allows device resizing.

The basic call sequence is:

  dmsetup load new_snapshot (referencing the existing in-use cow device)
     - the ctr code detects that the cow is already in use and allows the
       two snapshot target instances to be linked together
  dmsetup suspend original_snapshot
  dmsetup resume new_snapshot
     - the new_snapshot becomes live, and if anything now tries to access
       the original one it will receive -EIO
  dmsetup remove original_snapshot

(There can only be two snapshot targets referencing the same cow device
simultaneously.)

* [PATCH v4 01/13] dm snapshot: allow live exception store handover between tables

Permit in-use snapshot exception data to be 'handed over' from one

that allow the changes made in a snapshot device to be merged back into

The basic call sequence is:

     - the ctr code detects that the cow is already in use and allows the
       two snapshot target instances to be linked together
  dmsetup suspend original_snapshot
  dmsetup resume new_snapshot
     - the new_snapshot becomes live, and if anything now tries to access
       the original one it will receive -EIO
  dmsetup remove original_snapshot

(There can only be two snapshot targets referencing the same cow device
simultaneously.)

* [PATCH v4 02/13] dm snapshot: rework writing to snapshot origin

From: Mike Snitzer @ 2009-11-20 20:27 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: dm-devel; +Cc: linux-kernel, Mikulas Patocka

From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com>

The previous code selected one exception as "primary_pe", linked all
other exceptions to it and used reference counting to wait until all
exceptions were reallocated.

All the complexity with exceptions linking and reference counting has
been removed.  Now, a bio is linked to one exception and when that
exception is reallocated, the bio is retried to possibly wait for other
exceptions.

The new __origin_write() interface affords the snapshot-merge support
the ability to trigger exceptions in other snapshots without having a
need for an associated bio (which snapshot-merge does not generate).  As
such this patch is a prerequisite for snapshot-merge.

From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com>

prepare_merge: returns the last chunk in the variables passed by reference.
	The return value is the number of consecutive chunks.
commit_merge: permanently removes 'n' chunks from the exception store.
	'n' is less or equal that the number returned by prepare_merge.

If the caller wishes, it can do the optimization of merging several consecutive
chunks at once. If it doesn't want to do this optimization, it just calls
commit_merge with n == 1.

From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com>

The snapshot-merge target allows a snapshot to be merged back into the
snapshot's origin device.

One expected use of snapshot merging is the rollback of a root
filesystem after system upgrades (e.g.: yum update).  snapshot-merge
enables "system rollback" support for any filesystem that is using the
associated DM devices.

Add snapshot-merge target management to both dm_snapshot_init() and
dm_snapshot_exit().  As an initial place-holder, snapshot-merge is
identical to the snapshot target.

Add "snapshot-merge" to Documentation/device-mapper/snapshot.txt

* [PATCH v4 05/13] dm snapshot: add snapshot-merge target
@ 2009-11-20 20:27   ` Mike Snitzer
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 30+ messages in thread
From: Mike Snitzer @ 2009-11-20 20:27 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: dm-devel; +Cc: Mikulas Patocka, linux-kernel

From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com>

The snapshot-merge target allows a snapshot to be merged back into the
snapshot's origin device.

One expected use of snapshot merging is the rollback of a root
filesystem after system upgrades (e.g.: yum update).  snapshot-merge
enables "system rollback" support for any filesystem that is using the
associated DM devices.

Add snapshot-merge target management to both dm_snapshot_init() and
dm_snapshot_exit().  As an initial place-holder, snapshot-merge is
identical to the snapshot target.

Add "snapshot-merge" to Documentation/device-mapper/snapshot.txt

From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com>

The snapshot-merge target should not allocate new exceptions because the
intent is to merge all of its exceptions as quickly and safely as
possible.

Introduce new method, snapshot_merge_map(), that won't allocate
exceptions.  Modify __origin_write() so that it doesn't allocate
exceptions in merging snapshots.

If a write request to a merging snapshot device is to be dispatched
directly to the origin (because the chunk is not remapped or was already
merged), snapshot_merge_map() must make exceptions in other snapshots.

Merging more than one snapshot is not supported.
__find_merging_snapshot() will find the merging snapshot for a given
origin device.

From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com>

Merging is started when origin is resumed and it is stopped when
origin is suspended or when the merging snapshot is destoyed.

We don't need a separate thread, kcopyd does the job just fine
(provided that we have a private kcopyd).

Merging is not yet interlocked with writes, so there is a race condition
with concurrent access.  It will be fixed in further patches.

Adds a supporting function to decrement consecutive chunk counter.
Care is taken to increment the exception's old_chunk and new_chunk,
prior to the dm_consecutive_chunk_count_dec() call, if the chunk is at
the start of an exception's consecutive chunk range.  This allows for
snapshot-merge to support chunks that are added to the 'complete'
exception hash table before existing chunks.

From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com>

Use new variables, 'merge_write_interlock' and 'merge_write_interlock_n',
to determine the chunk number (on the origin device) and number of chunks
that are being merged.  Writes to this area are held on the
'merge_write_list' queue.

Track merging snapshot device's in-progress writes, to chunks that
were already remapped, and delay merging a chunk until all writes to
that chunk finish.

If we are merging an invalidated snapshot, redirect all accesses to the
origin device.  This is safe because snapshot_merge_process() will
stop_merge() if the merging snapshot becomes invalid.

Allowing the origin device to remain functional is important because it
may contain the root filesystem.

* [PATCH v4 13/13] dm snapshot: merge a linear region of chunks using one large IO
  2009-11-20 20:27 [PATCH v4 00/13] snapshot-merge target Mike Snitzer

s->store->type->prepare_merge returns the number of chunks that can be
linearly copied starting from the returned chunk number backward (but
the caller is allowed to copy less, and the caller passes the number of
copied chunks to s->store->type->commit_merge).

I.e. if returned chunk numbers are old_chunk == 10 and new_chunk == 20
and returned value is 3, then chunk 20 can be copied to 10, chunk 19 to
9 and 18 to 8.

s->merge_write_interlock_n has been increased up to the full range of
chunks returned from s->store->type->prepare_merge.  Until now kcopyd
was only ever allowed to copy one chunk at a time; as a result
snapshot-merge performance was extremely slow.

Relative to the snapshot target, snapshot-merge's performance is now
comparable.

Also, snapshot_merge_process() needs to delay the merging of _all_
chunks that have in-progress writes; not just the first chunk in the
region that is to be merged.

OK, I caught this in review but clearly didn't refresh the patch; the
above up_write() should be up_read().

From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com>

The snapshot-merge target should not allocate new exceptions because the
intent is to merge all of its exceptions as quickly and safely as
possible.

Introduce new method, snapshot_merge_map(), that won't allocate
exceptions.  Modify __origin_write() so that it doesn't allocate
exceptions in merging snapshots.

If a write request to a merging snapshot device is to be dispatched
directly to the origin (because the chunk is not remapped or was already
merged), snapshot_merge_map() must make exceptions in other snapshots.

* [PATCH v4 07/13] dm snapshot: do not allow more than one merging snapshot.

From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com>

Merging more than one snapshot is not supported.
__find_merging_snapshot() will find the merging snapshot for a given
origin device.

those clustering patches will be applied.
