[Drbd-dev] [PATCH 13/15] drbd: new on-disk activity log transaction format
Philipp Reisner
philipp.reisner at linbit.com
Tue Aug 30 11:05:47 CEST 2011
From: Lars Ellenberg <lars.ellenberg at linbit.com>
Use a new on-disk transaction format for the activity log, which allows
for multiple changes to the active set per transaction.
Using 4k transaction blocks, we can now get rid of the work-around code
to deal with devices not supporting 512 byte logical block size.
