Josh proposed the following change, and I don't think I could
explain it any better than he did:
From: Josh Durgin <josh.durgin@inktank.com>
Date: Tue, 24 Jul 2012 14:22:11 -0700
To: ceph-devel <ceph-devel@vger.kernel.org>
Message-ID: <500F1203.9050605@inktank.com>
Right now the kernel still has one piece of rbd management
duplicated from the rbd command line tool: snapshot creation.
There's nothing special about snapshot creation that makes it
advantageous to do from the kernel, so I'd like to remove the
create_snap sysfs interface. That is,
/sys/bus/rbd/devices/<id>/create_snap
would be removed.
Does anyone rely on the sysfs interface for creating rbd
snapshots? If so, how hard would it be to replace with:
rbd snap create pool/image@snap
Is there any benefit to the sysfs interface that I'm missing?
Josh
This patch implements this proposal, removing the code that
implements the "snap_create" sysfs interface for rbd images.
As a result, quite a lot of other supporting code goes away.
