Description:

Being used for adding and removing rbd block devices.

Usage: <mon ip addr> <options> <pool name> <rbd image name> [snap name]

$ echo "192.168.0.1 name=admin rbd foo" > /sys/bus/rbd/add

The snapshot name can be "-" or omitted to map the image read/write. A <dev-id>
will be assigned for any registered block device. If snapshot is used, it will
be mapped read-only.

Removal of a device:

$ echo <dev-id> > /sys/bus/rbd/remove

Entries under /sys/bus/rbd/devices/<dev-id>/
--------------------------------------------

client_id

The ceph unique client id that was assigned for this specific session.

major

The block device major number.

name

The name of the rbd image.

pool

The pool where this rbd image resides. The pool-name pair is unique
per rados system.

size

The size (in bytes) of the mapped block device.

refresh

Writing to this file will reread the image header data and set
all relevant datastructures accordingly.

current_snap

The current snapshot for which the device is mapped.

create_snap

Create a snapshot:

$ echo <snap-name> > /sys/bus/rbd/devices/<dev-id>/snap_create

rollback_snap

Rolls back data to the specified snapshot. This goes over the entire
list of rados blocks and sends a rollback command to each.

$ echo <snap-name> > /sys/bus/rbd/devices/<dev-id>/snap_rollback

snap_*

A directory per each snapshot


Entries under /sys/bus/rbd/devices/<dev-id>/snap_<snap-name>
-------------------------------------------------------------

id

The rados internal snapshot id assigned for this snapshot

size

The size of the image when this snapshot was taken.

See http://lwn.net/Articles/289013/ for more information on this topic, and

Besides the mmotm and linux-next trees, the kernel source tree now contains
the drivers/staging/ directory and many sub-directories for drivers or
filesystems that are on their way to being added to the kernel tree
proper, but they remain in drivers/staging/ while they still need more
work.

2.4.1: STAGING TREES

The kernel source tree now contains the drivers/staging/ directory, where
many sub-directories for drivers or filesystems that are on their way to
being added to the kernel tree live. They remain in drivers/staging while
they still need more work; once complete, they can be moved into the
kernel proper. This is a way to keep track of drivers that aren't
up to Linux kernel coding or quality standards, but people may want to use
them and track development.

Greg Kroah-Hartman currently (as of 2.6.36) maintains the staging tree.
Drivers that still need work are sent to him, with each driver having
its own subdirectory in drivers/staging/. Along with the driver source
files, a TODO file should be present in the directory as well. The TODO
file lists the pending work that the driver needs for acceptance into
the kernel proper, as well as a list of people that should be Cc'd for any
patches to the driver. Staging drivers that don't currently build should
have their config entries depend upon CONFIG_BROKEN. Once they can
be successfully built without outside patches, CONFIG_BROKEN can be removed.
