[dm-devel] [PATCH] Introducing multipath C API <libdmmp/libdmmp.h>

Gris Ge fge at redhat.com
Thu Jan 28 03:52:00 UTC 2016


Features:

 * Zero changes to existing codes.
 * Utilizing existing libmultipath codes.
 * Library user guide is in 'man 3 libdmmp.h'.
 * Every public function has its own manpage in section 3
   generated by linux 'kernel-doc' tool.

Usage:

    make -j5
    sudo make install \
            bindir=/usr/sbin/ \
            syslibdir=/usr/lib64/ \
            libdir=/usr/lib64/multipath \
            rcdir=/etc/rc.d/init.d \
            unitdir=/usr/lib/systemd/system \
            includedir=/usr/include
    make libdmmp_check

    man libdmmp.h
    man dmmp_mpath_array_get
    man <dmmp function name>

User case:

    Storaged multipath plugin:
        https://github.com/storaged-project/storaged/pull/40

FAQ:

 1. Why not use better approach like wrapping multipathd IPC output?

    That often means a lot changes to existing code which might be
    rejected.
    I would like to create a stable set of API, while its internal
    implementation could be changed without breaking binary
    compatibility.

 2. Why not build on existing libmultipath internal library?

    The libmultipath has too many public symbols which seems a bad
    design for public library. Yes, we still expose some internal symbols
    via libdmmp currently, that's because we are depending on
    libmultipath right now, to fix that we need to change libmultipath
    which I intend to avoid at this initial path set.

 3. Any developer notes?

    Following Linux kernel code style and libabc guideline.
    Others are recorded in 'libdmmp/DEV_NOTES'

 4. Can the library be licensed as LGPL?

    Nope. LGPL library cannot link to any GPL code, but our dependent
    libmultipath library is GPL. You could create some D-BUS API use
    libdmmp if license concerns. We might able to license libdmmp to
    LGPL when some day we change our implementation.

 5. Why not expose all properties out?

    Let's do this step by step. This commit only contains minimum API
    set required to create the initial storaged multipath plugin.

+== Planed features ==
+ * Find a way to hide symbol exposed by libmultipath
+ * Make /usr/bin/multipath and this library simply query information from
+   multipathd via IPC.
+
+== Code style ==
+ * Keep things as simple as possible.
+ * Linux Kernel code style.
+ * Don't use typedef.
+ * Don't use enum unless it's for user input argument.
+ * We are not smarter than API user, so don't create wrapping function like:
+
+    ```
+    dmmp_mpath_search_by_id(struct dmmp_context *ctx,
+                            struct dmmp_mpath **dmmp_mp,

+    ```
+ * The performance is the same for query single mpath and query all mpaths,
+   so no `dmmp_mpath_of_wwid(struct dmmp_context *ctx, const char *wwid)` yet.
+
+== Naming scheme ==
+ * Public constants should be named as `DMMP_XXX_YYY`.
+ * Public functions should be named as `dmmp_<noun>_<verb>`.

+ * Private functions should be named as `_dmmp_<noun>_<verb>`.

+ * libdmmp.c
+    For `struct dmmp_context` related functions and deal with libmultipath 
+    internal library.
+ * libdmmp_mp.c
+    For `struct dmmp_mpath`

+# This will read a 'c' file and scan for embedded comments in the

+
+# Note: This only supports 'c'.

+# usage:
+# kernel-doc [ -docbook | -html | -html5 | -text | -man | -list ]
+#            [ -no-doc-sections ]
+#            [ -function funcname [ -function funcname ...] ]

+#            c file(s)s > outputfile
+#
+#  Set output format using one of -docbook -html -html5 -text or -man.
+#  Default is man.
+#  The -list format is for internal use by docproc.
+#
+#  -no-doc-sections
+#	Do not output DOC: sections
+#
+#  -function funcname
+#	If set, then only generate documentation for the given function(s) or
+#	DOC: section titles.  All other functions and DOC: sections are ignored.
+#
+#  -nofunction funcname
+#	If set, then only generate documentation for the other function(s)/DOC:
+#	sections. Cannot be used together with -function (yes, that's a bug --
+#	perl hackers can fix it 8))
+#
+#  c files - list of 'c' files to process
+#
+#  All output goes to stdout, with errors to stderr.
+
+#
+# format of comments.
+# In the following table, (...)? signifies optional structure.
+#                         (...)* signifies 0 or more structure elements
+# /**
+#  * function_name(:)? (- short description)?
+# (* @parameterx: (description of parameter x)?)*
+# (* a blank line)?
+#  * (Description:)? (Description of function)?
+#  * (section header: (section description)? )*
+#  (*)?*/
+#
+# So .. the trivial example would be:
+#
+# /**
+#  * my_function
+#  */
+#
+# If the Description: header tag is omitted, then there must be a blank line
+# after the last parameter specification.
+# e.g.
+# /**
+#  * my_function - does my stuff
+#  * @my_arg: its mine damnit
+#  *
+#  * Does my stuff explained.
+#  */
+#
+#  or, could also use:
+# /**
+#  * my_function - does my stuff
+#  * @my_arg: its mine damnit
+#  * Description: Does my stuff explained.
+#  */
+# etc.
+#
+# Besides functions you can also write documentation for structs, unions,
+# enums and typedefs. Instead of the function name you must write the name
+# of the declaration;  the struct/union/enum/typedef must always precede
+# the name. Nesting of declarations is not supported.
+# Use the argument mechanism to document members or constants.
+# e.g.
+# /**
+#  * struct my_struct - short description
+#  * @a: first member
+#  * @b: second member
+#  *
+#  * Longer description
+#  */
+# struct my_struct {
+#     int a;
+#     int b;
+# /* private: */
+#     int c;
+# };
+#
+# All descriptions can be multiline, except the short function description.
+#
+# For really longs structs, you can also describe arguments inside the
+# body of the struct.
+# eg.
+# /**
+#  * struct my_struct - short description
+#  * @a: first member
+#  * @b: second member
+#  *
+#  * Longer description
+#  */
+# struct my_struct {
+#     int a;
+#     int b;
+#     /**
+#      * @c: This is longer description of C
+#      *
+#      * You can use paragraphs to describe arguments
+#      * using this method.
+#      */
+#     int c;
+# };
+#
+# This should be use only for struct/enum members.
+#
+# You can also add additional sections. When documenting kernel functions you
+# should document the "Context:" of the function, e.g. whether the functions
+# can be called form interrupts. Unlike other sections you can end it with an
+# empty line.
+# A non-void function should have a "Return:" section describing the return
+# value(s).
+# Example-sections should contain the string EXAMPLE so that they are marked
+# appropriately in DocBook.
+#
+# Example:
+# /**
+#  * user_function - function that can only be called in user context
+#  * @a: some argument
+#  * Context: !in_interrupt()
+#  *
+#  * Some description
+#  * Example:
+#  *    user_function(22);
+#  */

+# All descriptive text is further processed, scanning for the following special
+# patterns, which are highlighted appropriately.

+
+.SH NAME
+libdmmp.h \- Device Mapper Multipath API.
+
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+#include <libdmmp/libdmmp.h>
+
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+
+All the libdmmp ships man pages for all its public functions,
+use 'man 3 <function_name>' to check the detail usage.
+
+.SH "USAGE"
+
+To use libdmmp in your project, we suggest to use the 'pkg-config' way:
+
+ * Add this line into your configure.ac:
+
+    PKG_CHECK_MODULES([LIBDMMP], [libdmmp])
+
+ * Add these lines into your Makefile.am:
+
+    foo_LDFLAGS += $(LIBDMMP_LIBS)
+    foo_CFLAGS += $(LIBDMMP_CFLAGS)
+
+.SH LOG HANDLING
+
+The log handler function could be set via 'dmmp_context_log_func_set()'.
+The log priority could be set via 'dmmp_context_log_priority_set()'.
+
+By default, the log priorities is 'DMMP_LOG_PRIORITY_WARNING'.
+By default, the log handler is print log to STDERR, and its code is listed
+below in case you want to create your own log handler.
