* drbd: New net configuration option socket-check-timeoutPhilipp Reisner2014-07-101-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In setups involving a DRBD-proxy and connections that experience a lot of buffer-bloat it might be necessary to set ping-timeout to an unusual high value. By default DRBD uses the same value to wait if a newly established TCP-connection is stable. Since the DRBD-proxy is usually located in the same data center such a long wait time may hinder DRBD's connect process. In such setups socket-check-timeout should be set to at least to the round trip time between DRBD and DRBD-proxy. I.e. in most cases to 1.

* drbd: implement csums-after-crash-onlyLars Ellenberg2014-07-101-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Checksum based resync trades CPU cycles for network bandwidth, in situations where we expect much of the to-be-resynced blocks to be actually identical on both sides already. In a "network hickup" scenario, it won't help: all to-be-resynced blocks will typically be different. The use case is for the resync of *potentially* different blocks after crash recovery -- the crash recovery had marked larger areas (those covered by the activity log) as need-to-be-resynced, just in case. Most of those blocks will be identical. This option makes it possible to configure checksum based resync, but only actually use it for the first resync after primary crash.

* drbd: Allow online change of al-stripes and al-stripe-sizePhilipp Reisner2013-06-281-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Allow to change the AL layout with an resize operation. For that the reisze command gets two new fields: al_stripes and al_stripe_size. In order to make the operation crash save: 1) Lock out all IO and MD-IO 2) Write the super block with MDF_PRIMARY_IND clear 3) write the bitmap to the new location (all zeros, since we allow only while connected) 4) Initialize the new AL-area 5) Write the super block with the restored MDF_PRIMARY_IND. 6) Unfreeze all IO Since the AL-layout has no influence on the protocol, this operation needs to be beforemed on both sides of a resource (if intended).

* drbd: adjust upper limit for activity log extentsLars Ellenberg2013-03-221-6/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that the on-disk activity-log ring buffer size is adjustable, the maximum active set can become larger, and is now limited by the use of 16bit "labels". This increases the maximum working set from 6433 to 65534 extents, each of which covers an area of 4MiB. Which means that if you use the maximum, you'd have to resync more than 250 GiB after an unclean Primary shutdown. With capable backend storage and replication links, this is entirely feasible.

* drbd: New disk option al-updatesPhilipp Reisner2012-11-081-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | By disabling al-updates one might increase performace. The price for that is that in case a crashed primary (that had al-updates disabled) is reintegraded, it will receive a full-resync instead of a bitmap based resync.

* drbd: Changed some defaultsPhilipp Reisner2012-11-081-7/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Enabled the resync controller, with a fill target of 50Kib. That gives reasonable resync speeds without tuning. A much better default than the 250KiB/s fixed. * Enable bitmap compression. It is save to use, and most people have more CPU power than network bandwidth. * ko-count of 7: Abort a connection if the peer fails to process a write request within 42 seconds. * al-extents of 1237: ~5 GiB seems to be a much more sane default these days.

* drbd: Introduce protocol version 100 headersAndreas Gruenbacher2012-11-081-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The 8 byte header finally becomes too small. With the protocol 100 header we have 16 bit for the volume number, proper 32 bit for the data length, and 32 bit for further extensions in the future. Previous versions of drbd are using version 80 headers for all packets short enough for protocol 80. They support both header versions in worker context, but only version 80 headers in asynchronous context. For backwards compatibility, continue to use version 80 headers for short packets before protocol version 100. From protocol version 100 on, use the same header version for all packets.

* drbd: distribute former syncer_conf settings to disk, connection, and ↵Lars Ellenberg2012-11-081-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | resource level This commit breaks the API again. Move per-volume former syncer options into disk_conf. Move per-connection former syncer options into net_conf. Renamed the remainign sync_conf to res_opts Syncer settings have been changeable at runtime, so we need to prepare for these settings to be runtime-changeable in their new home as well. Introduce new configuration operations, and share the netlink attribute between "attach" (create new disk) and "disk-opts" (change options). Same for "connect" and "net-opts". Some fields cannot be changed at runtime, however. Introduce a new flag GENLA_F_INVARIANT to be able to trigger on that in the generated validation and assignment functions.
