Hi everyone, we would like to propose the first implementation of
fspool
with directory backend.
Filesystem pools is a facility to manage filesystems resources similar
to how storage pools manages volume resources. Furthermore new API follows
storage API closely where it makes sense. Uploading/downloading operations
are not defined yet as it is not obvious how to make it properly. I guess
we can use some kind of tar to make a stream from a filesystem. Please share
you thoughts on this particular issue.
So how do you differentiate between with the existing <pool type="fs">
http://libvirt.org/storage.html#StorageBackendFS
Sure the existing fs pool requires/uses a source block device as the
source path and this new variant doesn't require that source but seems
to use some item in order to dictate how to "define" the source on the
fly. Currently only a "DIR" is created - so how does that differ from a
"dir" pool.
I think it'll be confusing to have and differentiate fspool and pool
commands.
I didn't dig through all the patches, but from the few I did look at it
seems as though all that's done is to rip out the guts of stuff not
desired from the storage pool driver and replace it with this new code
attributing all the work to the new author/copyright. IOW: Lots of
places where StoragePool appears to be exactly the same as the FSPool.
I think you need to find a different means to do what you want. It's not
100% what the end goal is.
I did download/git am the patches and scan a few patches...
* In patch 2 you've totally missed how to modify libvirt_public.syms.
* In patch 3, the build breaks in "conf/fs_conf" since the "if { if {}
}" aren't done properly in virFSPoolDefFormatBuf.
* In patch 5 the remote_protocol_structs fails check/syntax-check... I
stopped there in my build each patch test.

The patchset provides 'dir' backend which simply expose directories in some
directory in host filesystem. The virsh commands are provided too. So it is
ready to play with, just replace 'pool' in xml descriptions and virsh commands
to 'fspool' and 'volume' to 'item'.
Examle and usage:
Define:
virsh -c qemu:///system fspool-define-as fs_pool_name dir --target /path/on/host
Build
virsh -c qemu:///system fspool-build fs_pool_name
Start
virsh -c qemu:///system fspool-start fs_pool_name
Look inside
virsh -c qemu:///system fspool-list (--all) fspool_name
Fspool called POOL, on the host fs uses /fs_driver to hold items.
virsh -c qemu:///system fspool-dumpxml POOL
<fspool type='dir'>

State: running
Persistent: yes

Fspool of directory type is some directory on host fs that holds items (subdirs).
Example of usage for items:
virsh -c vz+unix:///system item-create-as POOL item1 1g - create item
virsh -c qemu+unix:///system item-dumpxml item1 POOL
<fsitem>
<name>item1</name>
<key>/fs_driver/item1</key>
<source>
</source>
<capacity unit='bytes'>0</capacity>
<allocation unit='bytes'>0</allocation>
<target>
<format type='dir'/>
</target>
</fsitem>
virsh -c qemu+unix:///system item-info item1 POOL
Name: item1
Type: dir
Capacity: 683.33 GiB
Allocation: 634.87 MiB
Autostart: no autostart
Capacity: 683.33 GiB
Allocation: 1.24 GiB
Available: 498.08 GiB
virsh -c qemu+unix:///system item-list POOL
Name Path

item1 /fs_driver/item1
item10 /fs_driver/item10
item11 /fs_driver/item11
item12 /fs_driver/item12
item15 /fs_driver/item15
v2:
- renamed Fs to FS
- in configure.ac script macro m4 is used
- updates docs
- created simple tests
- updated virsh.pod
- added information abot fspool in fotmatfs.html
