Embodiment
Below in conjunction with the drawings and specific embodiments fast photographic system of the present invention is described.
Before the present invention is described in detail, the at first explanation that the definition of part noun related among the present invention is correlated with:
Logical device: the equipment of creating out by fast photographic system of the present invention is called logical device, is divided into two kinds of Snapshot Devices and source devices.
Physical equipment: the employed underlying device of logical device, the equipment that is used for store data is called physical equipment.
Metadata equipment: the physical equipment of depositing metadata is called metadata equipment.
Data equipment: the physical equipment of depositing user data is called data equipment

The minimum particle size of data block: I/O request visit is generally the 4K byte.
Snapshot group a: source device and the one group of equipment that constitutes from the derivative a plurality of Snapshot Devices of this source device
After the above-mentioned vocabulary of obscuring easily in to the present invention describes, below related correlation method in general fast photographic system of the present invention and this system is described.
General fast photographic system of the present invention is a kind of fast photographic system of device level, and this fast photographic system can be supported the snapping technique of Copy on write (COW) simultaneously and be redirected the snapping technique of (ROW) when writing.As shown in Figure 2, a complete general fast photographic system comprises equipment management tool collection, snapshot realization module and physical equipment.Wherein, the equipment management tool collection is positioned at the top of described general fast photographic system, it is the interactive interface between system and user, described snapshot realizes that module is positioned at following one deck of equipment management tool collection, the nucleus module that belongs to system, be used to realize the various operations to snapshot, physical equipment is the bottom of general fast photographic system of the present invention, is used to store the various data relevant with snapshot.Respectively their composition and function is described further below.
The equipment management tool collection is made up of one group of user program, and the management function of establishment/deletion/modification Snapshot Devices is provided.General fast photographic system of the present invention need be selected adopting which kind of snapping technique to create snapshot when creating snapshot, and this selection course is also realized by the equipment management tool collection.There is similarity in the realization of the corresponding function module of existing fast photographic system in the specific implementation of equipment management tool collection and the prior art, therefore, does not do duplicate explanation in the present invention.
Snapshot realizes that module is the main part of general fast photographic system.Two-layer from being divided in logic: snapshot mechanism layer and physical resource management layer.The snapshot mechanism layer provides the relation between Snapshot Devices, is used for the management of data search and time point.The physical resource management layer provides the distribution and the retrieval management of lower floor's physical space.Composition and function to snapshot mechanism layer and physical resource management layer describes respectively below.
The snapshot mechanism layer includes a plurality of snapshot groups, and the snapping technique that is adopted in snapshot group is identical, then can use different snapping techniques between different snapshot groups.In the present invention promptly, snapshot group can only be selected a kind of in COW and the ROW snapshot realization technology, but the snapshot between different snapshot groups realizes that technology then needn't be identical.
In a snapshot group, distinguish according to time point between a plurality of Snapshot Devices, adopt incremental mode and series system to organize between each Snapshot Devices.Relation between source device and Snapshot Devices in the snapshot group has been described in Fig. 3 and Fig. 4.Fig. 3 has represented under COW snapshot realization technology, the relation between source device and Snapshot Devices.Fig. 4 has then represented under ROW snapshot realization technology, the relation between source device and Snapshot Devices.In the ROW equipment group, the equipment room dependence is pointed to the Snapshot Devices of creating the earliest successively by source device, and is just in time opposite in COW equipment group, and dependence is pointed to source device by the Snapshot Devices of creating the earliest.
Though in above-mentioned snapshot group, the snapshot group may adopt the COW technology, also may adopt ROW, in realization for simplified design, integrate COW and two kinds of different technologies of ROW, the present invention has adopted the universal memory structure of four pointers.In Fig. 6, the universal memory structure of four pointers is illustrated, wherein, r0, the physical equipment that need visit during the corresponding read operation of r1 pointer, w0, the physical equipment that need visit during the corresponding write operation of w1.
The snapshot that general fast photographic system of the present invention provided can be divided into read-only according to type and can write snapshot.Snapshot generally speaking is read-only, and source device constitutes a chain structure with the read-only materialized view of creating in the different moment, and source device is at begin chain, and as root node, the time, Snapshot Devices the earliest was at last-of-chain.Each Snapshot Devices is recorded in the incremental data that adjacent snapshot time point changes, and using for data version management provides the different editions of a plurality of time points of data on the source book.Under some application-specific, native system also provides can write snapshot, and it obtains a writable replica of read-only materialized view by creating a brand-new Snapshot Devices for read-only materialized view, realizes writing of read-only materialized view.For read-only materialized view created can write snapshot after, read-only materialized view originally externally still as seen, the snapshot of creating for read-only materialized view write externally shows as a brand-new Snapshot Devices, it is equivalent to a new source device.Can create read-only materialized view again to writing snapshot, can write snapshot and its read-only materialized view and also constitute a chain.The write operation that can write snapshot is all write direct in the new Snapshot Devices.
When carrying out read operation, at first in the chain that can write the snapshot place, search data to writing snapshot, if search less than, then be forwarded in the read-only materialized view that it relied on and read.As Fig. 3, shown in 4, g0 is a snapshot group, wherein Snapshot Devices snap5 is done can write snapshot, has produced snap5 ' Snapshot Devices, continues snap5 ' is done read-only materialized view, forms g2 snapshot group.But snapshot group g2 is connected with snapshot group g0 by the parent pointer of its write device snap5 '.In like manner, the snap5 ' 2 among the snapshot group g2 done to write snapshot, finally form g3 snapshot group.When reading in the g2 group data in snap5 ' 1 equipment, at first search in the g2 group, also do not find desired data if find chain head apparatus snap5 ', the parent pointer that then passes through snap5 ' continues to search in the g0 group.Up to finding desired data.
The physical resource management layer provides the management of the employed physical equipment of logical device, comprises the opening of physical equipment, closes, adds, deletion and validity checking or the like.In a snapshot group, source device and Snapshot Devices all can be described as logical device, and a logical device is at corresponding two physical equipment of physical resource layer, and as shown in Figure 1, one of them physical equipment is a metadata equipment, and another is a data equipment.
On metadata equipment, the metadata that the management and the use of physical resources such as physical equipment identifies is stored.Specifically, described metadata is used for the increment of designation data and the deposit position of data on data equipment of snapshot version, and it has reflected the data map relation of snapshot version sometime.To each data block (Chunk) in the data equipment, corresponding item is all arranged in the metadata table of metadata equipment, be used to write down whether this data block was modified and the deposit position of this data block.In a metadata item, must comprise: information such as time, Data Position, data modification state.Metadata can adopt bitmap (bitmap), multiple record form such as mapping table.In the present embodiment, adopt the bitmap mode to write down metadata.When physical record, each logical device all has a bitmap, and each in the bitmap is represented the address realm of a data block size, and whole bitmap covers the logical space of Snapshot Devices, carries out the positioning action of user data by the value of corresponding positions in the bitmap.
The bitmap that is used for writing down metadata leaves metadata equipment in, considers the storage space and the access efficiency problem of metadata, can carry out multistage structure to bitmap and divide, and bitmap structure of being divided and the data block size in the data equipment have close getting in touch.In the present embodiment, the data block size is set at 4096 bytes, as shown in Figure 5, bitmap uses following tertiary structure: each in the first order bitmap is represented the logical space of 4T size, take 4k byte (1 page), in the bitmap of the second level each is represented the 128M address space, and each in the third level bitmap is represented the 4k address space.First order bitmap memory-resident, second and third grade employing changes to the mechanism of swapping out, and guarantees the less space hold of metadata.Pass between three grades of bitmaps is: if a certain position of first order bitmap is 1, represent to have in its corresponding secondary bitmap 1 to exist, similar, if having 1 to exist in the secondary bitmap, then representing has 1 to exist in three grades of bitmaps of its correspondence.By three grades of bitmap structures, can reduce the bitmap traversal time.
In general fast photographic system of the present invention, when data change between logical device, use metadata to reflect above-mentioned variation, promptly metadata has the function that can be used for the designation data increment.When adopting increment between the snapshot of two different time points of expression of metadata that the bitmap mode writes down, its concrete implication is as follows:
Bitmap values is 1: being illustrated between the time point of these two snapshots has write operation;
Bitmap values is 0: be illustrated between the time point of these two snapshots without any write operation.
Can realize reading by metadata to data in the logical device.But in general fast photographic system of the present invention, the snapshot realization technology that is adopted in the snapshot group can be a COW snapshot realization technology, also can be ROW snapshot realization technology.Therefore the metadata that adopts the bitmap mode to write down has specific separately implication in two kinds of snapshot realization technology, when utilizing metadata to realize the reading of data, it is inner semantic different.Related herein different inside semanteme has detailed relating to when utilizing general fast photographic system of the present invention to carry out reading of the establishment of snapshot, deletion and snapshot data, will be described in detail hereinafter.
After the structure of general fast photographic system of the present invention carried out above-mentioned explanation, the using method of general fast photographic system of the present invention is described further, may further comprise the steps:
Step 1, user create the order of snapshot by described equipment management tool collection issue, and determine to select which kind of snapping technique to create snapshot in described order;
Snapshot mechanism layer in step 2, the described snapshot realization module is created snapshot according to selected snapping technique in the step 1;
Step 3, according to user's demand, read the data in the snapshot;
Step 4, according to user's demand, in snapshot, finish the operation of write data;
Step 5, according to user's demand, snapshot is deleted.
In above-mentioned step, involved snapshot creation, snapshot data reads, snapshot data write and the deletion of snapshot all may exist difference owing to the difference of snapping technique, describe respectively below.
ROW class snapshot creation process as shown in Figure 7, when active equipment existed, its physical equipment that uses was physical equipment 1, after creating snapshot, give source device with the physical equipment 2 that is assigned to Snapshot Devices and use, and the physical equipment 1 that source device uses is given the Snapshot Devices use.
In the ROW pattern, during owing to the establishment snapshot, metadata equipment is exchanged with data equipment, and the incremental data on 1 in bitmap and the data equipment has one-to-one relationship.When visit was put snapshot data sometime, the value implication in its bitmap was as follows:
Bitmap values is 1: the data of representing the data block corresponding with corresponding positions just leave on the data equipment of this snapshot.
Bitmap values is 0: the data of representing the data block corresponding with corresponding positions are not on the data equipment of this snapshot.
As shown in Figure 8, the bitmap of ROW and Data Position are one to one, and bitmap is 1, and the expression data are that 0 needs is searched backward on this equipment.For example, in Fig. 8, the A data of reading state 6, then must find the s1 time point backward could the specified data position.
COW class snapshot creation process in COW pattern constructive process, only exchanges metadata equipment as shown in Figure 6, and data equipment does not exchange.Dependence is different with the ROW mode between each logical device of equipment group.For example, the corresponding physical equipment 1 of source device, after creating snapshot, the still corresponding physical equipment 1 of source device, the then corresponding physical equipment 2 of snapshot s1.
In the COW pattern, writing of taking place behind the snapshot creation can cause the COW process, with copying data in snapshot.Therefore, before not carrying out COW, 1 of Snapshot Devices metadata can not be represented deposit data on the data equipment of snapshot, and at this moment, 1 shows and at that time corresponding data block produced the COW operation.In conjunction with Fig. 6, the Data Position in the COW pattern is determined that method does following explanation:
When reading snapshot S1, read the bitmap of snapshot S2 of its a back time point, if the value of this bitmap is 1, the deposit data of expression corresponding data piece is on the data equipment of snapshot S1; If bitmap values is 0, then along chain sternward the snapshot of time point continue to search, if run into snapshot S kBitmap values be 1, the deposit data of then representing respective data blocks is at snapshot S K-1Data equipment on; If run into source device in search procedure, and the bitmap values of source device is 1 o'clock, and the deposit data of then representing data block is on the data equipment of the adjacent snapshot of source device; If the bitmap values of source device is 0, the deposit data of then representing data block is on the data equipment in source.
As shown in Figure 9,1 state has been created the s1 Snapshot Devices after having write four of ABCD in the source, and this moment, s1 held the bitmap of source at the s0 state, the bitmap zero clearing in source.When state 2, write 1,3, can trigger the COW operation this moment, copy data to the s1 Snapshot Devices from source device.The bitmap corresponding positions set in source, the bitmap of snapshot is constant.When state 4, write the source 2,3, trigger the COW operation this moment, copy data to the s2 Snapshot Devices from source device, and the like.When reading s1 time point data, need search forward, such as when the state 6, read the D data, then need to find forward the position that s3 equipment could final specified data.
Metadata store can leave on the same physical medium with data in physical equipment the time, realizes mixed storage, also can leave in independently on the physical equipment, isolates with the physical medium at data place.In the present embodiment, consider efficient and scaling concern, finally adopted the scheme of separate metadata equipment.
After the basic composition to general fast photographic system of the present invention described, processes such as snapshot, deletion snapshot, reading of data, data migtation that fast photographic system is created described.
Fig. 6 and Fig. 7 are the respective description to the snapshot creation flow process, and Fig. 6 wherein adopts COW snapshot realization technology to create the flow process of snapshot, and Fig. 7 adopts ROW snapshot realization technology to create the flow process of snapshot.
In Fig. 6, all have four snapshots to concern pointer in Snapshot Devices and the source device, point to the physical equipment that its read-write operation need be visited respectively, and write down between the snapshot, the dependence between snapshot and the source device.The constructive process of snapshot is as follows in the COW pattern: at first create a source device, when creating, all snapshots of source device concerns that pointer all points to the physical equipment of source device, at this moment an active equipment itself in the snapshot chained list; Create first snapshot at next time point then, insert in the process of snapshot at the snapshot chained list, revise the w0 pointed snapshot of source device, and the r0 pointed source of snapshot, if the snapshot of being created is a read-only materialized view, then needing the w0 of snapshot and w1 apparatus modifications is null pointer; When creating second snapshot for source device, when in chained list, inserting Snapshot Devices 2, revise the w0 pointed Snapshot Devices 2 of source device, the r0 pointed source of Snapshot Devices 2, the r0 pointed Snapshot Devices 2 of Snapshot Devices 1, if this snapshot is a read-only materialized view, needing the w0 of Snapshot Devices 2 and w1 apparatus modifications equally is null pointer.By above-mentioned flow process, set up the dependence between each different time points Snapshot Devices.
The snapshot creation process of Fig. 7 and Fig. 6 is similar, and is just different when four pointed.In the ROW mode, the r0 pointed Snapshot Devices of source device, Snapshot Devices is the opposite sense source device not.When a plurality of Snapshot Devices was arranged, the snapshot chain of ROW was that the snapshot by up-to-date time point points to the oldest time point snapshot successively, and as shown in Figure 7, s1 is the Snapshot Devices of creating the earliest, and its time point is the oldest, and s2 be the snapshot of last establishment, and its time point is up-to-date.The snapshot chain points to s2 successively by source device, and s1 equipment is just in time opposite with the COW mode.
When the data in the general fast photographic system are read, can be divided into reading of data in the source device and reading to data in the Snapshot Devices.
When reading in the source device data, no matter be COW pattern or ROW pattern, their flow processs when reading of data are identical, may further comprise the steps:
Steps A 1, in bitmap, inquire about corresponding position,, then directly read, and return the data value that is read,, then carry out next step if this value is 0 in this locality if this value is 1 according to the address of want reading of data;
Steps A 2, judge whether the data in the source device exist corresponding snapshot, and evaluation algorithm is:, then do not have snapshot if the r0 pointed is physical equipment; If then there is snapshot in logical device.If there is not snapshot, then return full remainder certificate, if there is snapshot, then read data request is transmitted according to the snapshot chain, enter the flow process that reads of snapshot data.
In reading the process of snapshot data, the difference according to snapshot realization technology exists evident difference when reading, describe respectively below.
Under the COW pattern, the process that reads snapshot data is as follows:
Step B1, the physical equipment of depositing according to the value specified data of bitmap; Evaluation algorithm is: travel through forward from the afterbody of snapshot chained list, if at a certain snapshot S kOn bitmap values be 1, then at its last snapshot S K-1Data equipment on reading of data, if bitmap values is 0, then read data request is forwarded on the last snapshot along the snapshot chained list, be 1 snapshot until finding bitmap values;
Step B2, not find bitmap values in the snapshot of snapshot chained list be 1 snapshot, read data request arrives source device, if the bitmap values of source device is 1 o'clock, with the data equipment of the adjacent snapshot of source device on reading of data, otherwise on the data equipment in source reading of data.The specific implementation of this step can be referring to above to the explanation of Fig. 9.
Under the ROW pattern, the process that reads snapshot data is as follows:
The physical equipment of depositing according to the value specified data of bitmap, reading of data from the stored physical equipment of data then.Under the ROW pattern, the evaluation algorithm of specified data deposit position is: travel through forward from the afterbody of snapshot chained list, if at a certain snapshot S kOn bitmap values be 1, then on the data equipment of this locality, read, and return corresponding data, if bitmap values is 0, judge then whether current snapshot is the oldest snapshot in the snapshot chained list, whether is the snapshot of snapshot chained list tail end promptly, if, then return entirely 0, otherwise read data request is forwarded in the last snapshot in the snapshot chained list.The specific implementation of this step can be referring to above to the explanation of Fig. 8.
The source is being carried out in the data writing operation process, and the difference according to snapshot realization technology also exists difference when write data, describe respectively below.
Under the COW pattern, the flow process of write data is as follows:
Step a1, the physical equipment of depositing according to the value specified data of bitmap;
Step a2, write data according to the determined physical equipment of step a1.
Concrete implementation method is: if bitmap values is 1, in the physical equipment in the source of then writing direct; If bitmap values is 0, finish writing again in the physical equipment in source after COW operates.
Under the ROW pattern, the flow process of write data is as follows:
Step b1, the physical equipment of depositing according to the value specified data of bitmap;
Step b2, write data according to the determined physical equipment of step b1.
Concrete implementation method is: if bitmap values is 1, in the physical equipment in the source of then writing direct; If bitmap values is 0, after merging, the data of carrying out data block write again in the physical equipment in source.
Same, in general fast photographic system, also can exist difference owing to the difference of snapping technique to the deletion of snapshot, below the branch situation delete procedure of snapshot is described.
In the COW mode, when existing a plurality of time during snapshot, be simplified design and realization, we can only delete the oldest time point snapshot at regulation, avoid the data migtation operation.
And in the ROW mode, exist the new demand of creating snapshot of deletion, and by the relation of Fig. 7 as can be seen, the different time points snapshot exists dependence, and data at the same time may be distributed on the different physical equipments, so data need be merged.With Fig. 7 is example, and the data merging method that is triggered during to the deletion Snapshot Devices describes.
In Fig. 7, S1 and S2 suppose to delete Snapshot Devices S1 for the Snapshot Devices of two time points of next-door neighbour, and concrete data merging process comprises:
Step 10, read the corresponding position in bitmap of each data block among the Snapshot Devices S2 successively;
Step 20, the corresponding bitmap bits of bitmap bits among the Snapshot Devices S2 and Snapshot Devices S1 is made up, can obtain four kinds of situations:
S2 S1
a、0 0
b、0 1
c、1 0
d、1 1
How therefore when the bitmap bits of S2 was 1, expression had new data to write, and only need be that 1 data block copy returns on the data equipment of S1 with the bitmap bits of S2 when data merge, and no matter the bitmap bits of S1 is a value.This copy procedure is called data travelling backwards operation.
Step 30, execution data travelling backwards operation are by the data equipment of the copying data in the data equipment of S2 to S1.
After step 40, migration finished, the bitmap corresponding positions of putting S2 was 0;
If all data blocks of step 50 are handled, carry out next step; Otherwise re-execute step 10, continue to handle next data block.
Step 60, two logical device are locked, change the value of bitmap and r1 pointer simultaneously, both physical equipment is exchanged.
Step 70, the shared internal memory of the deleted equipment of release, resources such as physical equipment.
It should be noted last that above embodiment is only unrestricted in order to technical scheme of the present invention to be described.Although the present invention is had been described in detail with reference to embodiment, those of ordinary skill in the art is to be understood that, technical scheme of the present invention is made amendment or is equal to replacement, do not break away from the spirit and scope of technical solution of the present invention, it all should be encompassed in the middle of the claim scope of the present invention.
