[Gluster-devel] Patch for "Striped" read from AFR volumes

[Gareth Bult]

Hi,

This looks good , can I just check a couple of things ..

When you write "RAID0", do you mean "RAID1" ?

Is the patch in TLA, or is it a manual apply only ?
(if not, is the patch likely to run against the TLA/1.3.8 code?)

Thanks,
Gareth.

Subject: [Gluster-devel] Patch for "Striped" read from AFR volumes

Hi,

apply following patch, to read AFR volumes like RAID0 volumes. The
current implementation of AFR reads every blocks from the first child
if that available. With this simple patch cycles through all available
childs. This meand every afr_readv calls reads from the next child
readed as previous call. So if U have 4 child, first block will be
readed from 1st next from 2nd next from 3rd next from 4th and starts
from first so next from 1st.

to apply this patch
cd xlators/cluster/afr/src
patch -p0 <afr_striped_read_1.3.7.diff
make
make install

patch also available here:
http://www.csibra.hu/glusterfs/afr_striped_read_1.3.7.diff

as you see this patch against 1.3.7 version.

here's the patch:
