[dm-devel] [PATCH] dm ebs: new block size emulating target

Heinz Mauelshagen heinzm at redhat.com
Mon Feb 10 14:53:57 UTC 2020


This new target is similar to the linear target except that it emulates
a smaller logical block size on devices with larger ones.  It's main
purpose is to emulate 512 byte sectors on 4K native disks (i.e. 512e).

See Documentaiton/admn-guide/device-mapper/dm-ebs.rst for details.

+
+This target is similar to the linear target except that it emulates
+smaller logical block size on devices with larger ones.   It's main
+purpose is to emulate 512 byte sectors on 4K native disks (i.e 512e).
+
+Supported emulated logical block sizes 512, 1024, 2048 and 4096.
+
+
+Table parameters
+----------------
+  <dev path> <offset> <emulated sectors> [<underlying sectors>]
+
+Mandatory parameters:
+
+    <dev path>:
+        Full pathname to the underlying block-device,
+        or a "major:minor" device-number.
+    <offset>:
+        Starting sector within the device;
+        has to be a multiple of <emulated sectors>.
+    <emulated sectors>:
+        Number of sectors defining the logical block size to be emulated;
+        1, 2, 4, 8 sectors of 512 bytes supported.
+
+Optional parameter:
+
+    <underyling sectors>:
+        Number of sectors defining the logical block size of <dev path>.
+        1, 2, 4, 8 supported, e.g. 8 = emulate 8 sectors of 512 bytes = 4KiB.
+        If not provided, the logical block size of <dev path> will be used.
+
+
+Examples:
+
+Emulate 1 sector = 512 bytes logical block size on /dev/sda starting at
+offset 1024 sectors with underlying devices block size automatically set:
+
+ebs /dev/sda 1024 1
+
+Emulate 2 sector = 1KiB logical block size on /dev/sda starting at
+offset 128 sectors, enforce 2KiB underlying device block size.
+This presumes 2KiB logical blocksize on /dev/sda or less to work:
+
+ebs /dev/sda 128 2 4
