That's fine - looks like an adjustment from a previous patch/bug will need to be made though... Although if wordiness were a criterion for the number of patches to generate - I think Laine and I would become the patch submission leaders really quickly ;-) >> >> Signed-off-by: John Ferlan <jfer...@redhat.com> >> --- >> src/storage/storage_backend_disk.c | 18 +++++++++++++++++- >> 1 file changed, 17 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) >> >> diff --git a/src/storage/storage_backend_disk.c >> b/src/storage/storage_backend_disk.c >> index 6394dac..bc14aab 100644 >> --- a/src/storage/storage_backend_disk.c >> +++ b/src/storage/storage_backend_disk.c >> @@ -164,8 +164,18 @@ virStorageBackendDiskMakeDataVol(virStoragePoolObjPtr >> pool, >> return -1; >> } >> >> + /* For "data", adjust the pool's allocation by the size of the volume >> + * For "metadata" (aka "extended" volume), we haven't yet used the >> space; >> + * however, the calling createVol path will adjust the pool allocation >> + * by the volume allocation if it determines a storage backend doesn't >> + * adjust the pool's allocation value.

I do note sheepdog has some specific size checks for refresh, but must not need that for the create and delete paths. So that's checks in Create, CreateXML, and Delete in order to make a single check to not update for the disk backend since we "know" it'll do the pool updates. The one concern I have there is that those checks were part of commit id '2ac0e647b' and were meant to be "more generic" (even though they were specific to a disk backend problem) as opposed to specific check(s) for each (or any) backend which could/should update the pool values on create/delete since the "real" size is known at volume create/delete time. >> + */ >> if (STRNEQ(groups[2], "metadata")) >> pool->def->allocation += vol->target.allocation; >> + else >> + pool->def->allocation++; >> if (vol->source.extents[0].end > pool->def->capacity) >> pool->def->capacity = vol->source.extents[0].end; >> >> @@ -309,7 +319,13 @@ >> virStorageBackendDiskReadPartitions(virStoragePoolObjPtr pool, >> pool->def->source.devices[0].path, >> NULL); >> >> - pool->def->allocation = pool->def->capacity = pool->def->available = 0; >> + /* The reload/restart/refresh path will recalculate everything; >> + * otherwise, keep allocation as is as capacity and available >> + * will be adjusted >> + */ > > 'refresh path' is ambiguous here - technically we're refreshing a > volume if one was passed.
