Detailed Description

Parameters for lvolstore initialization.

Create clone of given non-lvol device.

The bdev that is being cloned is commonly called an external snapshot or esnap. The clone is commonly called an esnap clone.

Parameters

esnap_id	The identifier that will be passed to the spdk_bs_esnap_dev_create callback.
id_len	The length of esnap_id, in bytes.
size_bytes	The size of the external snapshot device, in bytes. This must be an integer multiple of the lvolstore's cluster size. See cluster_sz in
lvs	Handle to lvolstore.
clone_name	Name of created clone.
cb_fn	Completion callback.
cb_arg	Completion callback custom arguments.

Returns

0 if parameters pass verification checks and the esnap creation is started, in which case the cb_fn will be used to report the completion status. If an error is encountered, a negative errno will be returned and cb_fn will not be called.

Field Documentation

cluster_sz

uint32_t spdk_lvs_opts::cluster_sz

Size of cluster in bytes.

Must be multiple of 4KiB page size.

esnap_bs_dev_create

spdk_bs_esnap_dev_create spdk_lvs_opts::esnap_bs_dev_create

A function to be called to load external snapshots.

If this is NULL while the lvolstore is being loaded, the lvolstore will not support external snapshots.

opts_size

uint32_t spdk_lvs_opts::opts_size

The size of spdk_lvol_opts according to the caller of this library is used for ABI compatibility.

The library uses this field to know how many fields in this structure are valid. And the library will populate any remaining fields with default values. After that, new added fields should be put in the end of the struct.
