Subject: [PATCH 17/30] db: rewrite IO engine to use libxfs
Date: Wed, 30 Oct 2013 15:31:08 +1100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1383107481-28937-18-git-send-email-david@fromorbit.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1383107481-28937-1-git-send-email-david@fromorbit.com>
From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com>
Now that we have buffers and xfs_buf_maps, it is relatively easy to
convert the IO engine to use libxfs routines. This gets rid of the
most of the differences between mapped and straight buffer reads,
and tracks xfs_bufs directly in the IO context that is being used.
This is not yet a perfect solution, as xfs_db does different sized
IOs for the same block range which will throw warnings like:
xfs_db> inode 64
7ffff7fde740: Badness in key lookup (length)
bp=(bno 0x40, len 8192 bytes) key=(bno 0x40, len 4096 bytes)
xfs_db>
This is when first displaying an inode in the root inode chunk.
These will need to be dealt with on a case by case basis.
