From 9ca8dbcc65cfc63d6f5ef3312a33184e1d726e00 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yunhong Jiang Date: Tue, 4 Aug 2015 12:17:53 -0700 Subject: Add the rt linux 4.1.3-rt3 as base Import the rt linux 4.1.3-rt3 as OPNFV kvm base. It's from git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-rt-devel.git linux-4.1.y-rt and the base is: commit 0917f823c59692d751951bf5ea699a2d1e2f26a2 Author: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior Date: Sat Jul 25 12:13:34 2015 +0200 Prepare v4.1.3-rt3 Signed-off-by: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior We lose all the git history this way and it's not good. We should apply another opnfv project repo in future.

To do so, we use a + fixed (but configurable) number of slots which we can identify by index, and + associate region numbers (labels) with these indices. + For each transaction recording a change to the active set, we record the + change itself (index: -old_label, +new_label), and which index is associated + with which label (index: current_label) within a certain sliding window that + is moved further over the available indices with each such transaction. + + Thus, for crash recovery, if the ringbuffer is sufficiently large, we can + accurately reconstruct the active set. + + Sufficiently large depends only on maximum number of active objects, and the + size of the sliding window recording "index: current_label" associations within + each transaction. + + This is what we call the "activity log". + + Currently we need one activity log transaction per single label change, which + does not give much benefit over the "dirty chunks of bitmap" approach, other + than potentially less seeks. + + We plan to change the transaction format to support multiple changes per + transaction, which then would reduce several (disjoint, "random") updates to + the bitmap into one transaction to the activity log ring buffer. +*/ + +/* this defines an element in a tracked set + * .colision is for hash table lookup. + * When we process a new IO request, we know its sector, thus can deduce the + * region number (label) easily.
