+2003-12-29 multipath-012
+ * check hotplug event refers to a block device; if not exit early
+ * refresh doc
+ * add the uninstall target in Makefile
+2003-12-22 multipath-010
+ * tweak the install target in Makefile
+ * stop passing fds as argument : this change enable a strict
+ segregation of ugly 2.4 code
+ * sysfs version of get_lun_strings()
+ * be careful about the return of get_unique_id() since errors
+ formerly caught up by if(open()) in the caller fn are now returned
+ by get_unique_id()
+ * send get_serial() in unused.c
+ * introduce dm-simplecmd for RESUME & SUSPEND requests
+ * split add_map() in setup_map() & dm-addmap()
+ * setup_map() correctly submits "SUSPEND-RELOAD-RESUME or CREATE"
+ sequences instead of the bogus "RELOAD or CREATE"
+ * don't print .sg_dev if equal to .dev (2.6) in print_path()
+ * since the kernel code handles defective paths, remove all
+ code to cope with them :
+ * move do_tur() to unused.c
+ * remove .state from path struct
+ * remove .state settings & conditionals
+ * add a cmdline switch to force maps to failover mode,
+ ie 1 path per priority group
+ * add default policies to the whitelist array (spread io ==
+ MULTIBUS / io forced to 1 path == FAILOVER)
+ * move get_disk_size() call out of add_map() to coalesce()
+ * comment tricky coalesce() fn
+ * bogus unsused.c file renamed to unused.c
+2003-12-20 multipath-010
+ * big ChangeLog update
+ * start to give a little control over target params :
+ introduce cmdline arg -i to control polling interval
+ * cope with hotplug-style calling convention :
+ ie "multipath scsi $DEVPATH" ... to avoid messing with
+ online maps not concerned by an event
+ * example hotplug agent to drop in /etc/hotplug.d/scsi
+ * revert the run & resched patch : unless someone proves me
+ wrong, this was overdesigned
+ * move commented out functions in unused.c
+ * update multipath target params to "udm[23] style"
+ * mp target now supports nr_path == 1, so do we
+ * add gratuitous free()
+ * push version forward
+2003-12-15 multipath-009
+ * Make the HW-specific get_unique_id switch pretty
+ * Prepare to field-test by whitelisting all known fibre array,
+ try to fetch WWID from the standard EVPD 0x83 off 8 for everyone
+ * configure the multipath target with round-robin path selector and
+ conservative default for a start (udm1 style) :
+ yes it makes this release the firstreally useful one.
+ * temporarily disable map creation for single path device
+ due to current restrictive defaults in the kernel target.
+ Sistina should work it out.
+ * correct the strncmp logic in blacklist function.
+ * update the Makefiles to autodetect libgcc.a & gcc includes
+ "ulibc-style". Factorisation of udevdirs & others niceties
+ * drop a hint about absent /dev/sd? on failed open()
+ * implement a reschedule flag in /var/run.
+ Last thing the prog do before exit is check if a call to multipath
+ was done (but canceled by /var/run/multipath.run check) during its
+ execution. If so restart themain loop.
+ * implement a blacklist of sysfs bdev to not bother with for now
+ (hd,md, dm, sr, scd, ram, raw).
+ This avoid sending SG_IO to unappropiate devices.
+ * Adds a /var/run/multipath.run handling to avoid simultaneous runs.
+ * Remove a commented-out "printf"
+ * drop a libdevmapper copy in extras/multipath;
+ maybe discussions w/Sistina folks will bring a better solution in the future.
+ * drop a putchar usage in libdevmapper to compile cleanly with klibc
+ * drop another such usage of my own in main.c
+ * massage the Makefile to compile libdevmapper against klibc
+ * use "ld" to produce the binary rather than "gcc -static"
+ * stop being stupid w/ uneeded major, minor & dev in main.c:dm_mk_node()
+ * reverse to creating striped target for now because the multipath target
+ is more hairy than expected initialy
+ * push the version code to 009 to be in synch w/ udev
+2003-11-27 multipath-007
+ * removes sg_err.[ch] deps
+ * makes sure the core code play nice with klibc
+ * port the sysfs calls to dlist helpers
+ * links against udev's sysfs (need libsysfs.a & dlist.a)
+ * finally define DM_TARGET as "multipath" as Joe posted the code today (not tested yet)
+ * push version forward (do you want it in sync with udev version?)
+2003-11-19
+ * merged in udev-006 tree
2003-09-18 Christophe Varoqui <christophe.varoqui@free.fr>
* multipath 0.0.1 released.
* Initial release.
