[sheepdog] [PATCH v2 1/5] sheep: update inode coherence protocol for iSCSI multipath

Thu Sep 25 16:11:01 CEST 2014


This patch fixes 4 bugs of inode coherence protocol, especially in
gateway request handling:
1. add a new flag for indicating requests from tgtd
   It is required because dog command can read VDIs which are used by
   tgtd. Current coherence protocol can be violated by this
   behavior. The new flag is added for preventing this problem.
2. accurate detection of inode reload
   The previous way of detecting inode reload was incorrect.
3. return SD_RES_INODE_INVALIDATED in a case of create and write
   request
4. correct conditional branch for invalidation via gateway writes
