Flexible Lustre Management
Flexible Lustre management Making less work for Admins ORNL is managed by UT-Battelle for the US Department of Energy How do we know Lustre condition today • Polling proc / sysfs files – The knocking on the door model – Parse stats, rpc info, etc for performance deviations. • Constant collection of debug logs – Heavy parsing for common problems. • The death of a node – Have to examine kdumps and /or lustre dump Origins of a new approach • Requirements for Linux kernel integration. – No more proc usage – Migration to sysfs and debugfs – Used to configure your file system. – Started in lustre 2.9 and still on going. • Two ways to configure your file system. – On MGS server run lctl conf_param … • Directly accessed proc seq_files. – On MSG server run lctl set_param –P • Originally used an upcall to lctl for configuration • Introduced in Lustre 2.4 but was broken until lustre 2.12 (LU-7004) – Configuring file system works transparently before and after sysfs migration. Changes introduced with sysfs / debugfs migration • sysfs has a one item per file rule. • Complex proc files moved to debugfs • Moving to debugfs introduced permission problems – Only debugging files should be their. – Both debugfs and procfs have scaling issues. • Moving to sysfs introduced the ability to send uevents – Item of most interest from LUG 2018 Linux Lustre client talk. – Both lctl conf_param and lctl set_param –P use this approach • lctl conf_param can set sysfs attributes without uevents. See class_modify_config() – We get life cycle events for free – udev is now involved. What do we get by using udev ? • Under the hood – uevents are collect by systemd and then processed by udev rules – /etc/udev/rules.d/99-lustre.rules – SUBSYSTEM=="lustre", ACTION=="change", ENV{PARAM}=="?*", RUN+="/usr/sbin/lctl set_param '$env{PARAM}=$env{SETTING}’” • You can create your own udev rule – http://reactivated.net/writing_udev_rules.html – /lib/udev/rules.d/* for examples – Add udev_log="debug” to /etc/udev.conf if you have problems • Using systemd for long task. -

[13주차] Sysfs and Procfs
1 7 Computer Core Practice1: Operating System Week13. sysfs and procfs Jhuyeong Jhin and Injung Hwang Embedded Software Lab. Embedded Software Lab. 2 sysfs 7 • A pseudo file system provided by the Linux kernel. • sysfs exports information about various kernel subsystems, HW devices, and associated device drivers to user space through virtual files. • The mount point of sysfs is usually /sys. • sysfs abstrains devices or kernel subsystems as a kobject. Embedded Software Lab. 3 How to create a file in /sys 7 1. Create and add kobject to the sysfs 2. Declare a variable and struct kobj_attribute – When you declare the kobj_attribute, you should implement the functions “show” and “store” for reading and writing from/to the variable. – One variable is one attribute 3. Create a directory in the sysfs – The directory have attributes as files • When the creation of the directory is completed, the directory and files(attributes) appear in /sys. • Reference: ${KERNEL_SRC_DIR}/include/linux/sysfs.h ${KERNEL_SRC_DIR}/fs/sysfs/* • Example : ${KERNEL_SRC_DIR}/kernel/ksysfs.c Embedded Software Lab. 4 procfs 7 • A special filesystem in Unix-like operating systems. • procfs presents information about processes and other system information in a hierarchical file-like structure. • Typically, it is mapped to a mount point named /proc at boot time. • procfs acts as an interface to internal data structures in the kernel. The process IDs of all processes in the system • Kernel provides a set of functions which are designed to make the operations for the file in /proc : “seq_file interface”. – We will create a file in procfs and print some data from data structure by using this interface. -

Unionfs: User- and Community-Oriented Development of a Unification File System
Unionfs: User- and Community-Oriented Development of a Unification File System David Quigley, Josef Sipek, Charles P. Wright, and Erez Zadok Stony Brook University {dquigley,jsipek,cwright,ezk}@cs.sunysb.edu Abstract If a file exists in multiple branches, the user sees only the copy in the higher-priority branch. Unionfs allows some branches to be read-only, Unionfs is a stackable file system that virtually but as long as the highest-priority branch is merges a set of directories (called branches) read-write, Unionfs uses copy-on-write seman- into a single logical view.

Comparison of Kernel and User Space File Systems
Comparison of kernel and user space file systems — Bachelor Thesis — Arbeitsbereich Wissenschaftliches Rechnen Fachbereich Informatik Fakultät für Mathematik, Informatik und Naturwissenschaften Universität Hamburg Vorgelegt von: Kira Isabel Duwe E-Mail-Adresse: [email protected] Matrikelnummer: 6225091 Studiengang: Informatik Erstgutachter: Professor Dr. Thomas Ludwig Zweitgutachter: Professor Dr. Norbert Ritter Betreuer: Michael Kuhn Hamburg, den 28. August 2014 Abstract A file system is part of the operating system and defines an interface between OS and the computer’s storage devices. It is used to control how the computer names, stores and basically organises the files and directories. Due to many different requirements, such as efficient usage of the storage, a grand variety of approaches arose. The most important ones are running in the kernel as this has been the only way for a long time. In 1994, developers came up with an idea which would allow mounting a file system in the user space. The FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace) project was started in 2004 and implemented in the Linux kernel by 2005. This provides the opportunity for a user to write an own file system without editing the kernel code and therefore avoid licence problems. Additionally, FUSE offers a stable library interface. It is originally implemented as a loadable kernel module. Due to its design, all operations have to pass through the kernel multiple times. The additional data transfer and the context switches are causing some overhead which will be analysed in this thesis. So, there will be a basic overview about on how exactly a file system operation takes place and which mount options for a FUSE-based system result in a better performance. -
