Ilya Dryomov 462b3898e5 rbd: match against whole disks on unmap
Currently the way 'rbd unmap' translates a user-provided block device
into an rbd id is it matches the major number of the specified device
against /sys/bus/rbd/devices/<id>/major for each rbd mapping and
declares success on the first match.  This works for both entire disks
and partitions, because under the current device number allocation
scheme, each mapping means a new major number.

In preparation for support for single-major device number allocation
scheme, which would require matching both major and minor numbers, make
sure to always match against entire disk device numbers, by converting
the specified device major:minor pair into wholdedisk major:minor pair.
To achive that, use the libblkid library, which accomplishes this goal
by walking stable sysfs structures.

Building Ceph
=============
To prepare the source tree after it has been git cloned,
$ git submodule update --init
To build the server daemons, and FUSE client, execute the following:
$ ./autogen.sh
$ ./configure
$ make
(Note that the FUSE client will only be built if libfuse is present.)
Dependencies
------------
The configure script will complain about any missing dependencies as
it goes. You can also refer to debian/control or ceph.spec.in for the
package build dependencies on those platforms. In many cases,
dependencies can be avoided with --with-foo or --without-bar switches.
For example,
$ ./configure --with-nss # use libnss instead of libcrypto++
$ ./configure --without-radosgw # do not build radosgw and avoid libfcgi-dev
$ ./configure --without-tcmalloc # avoid google-perftools dependency
Building packages
-----------------
You can build packages for Debian or Debian-derived (e.g., Ubuntu)
systems with
$ sudo apt-get dpkg-dev
$ dpkg-checkbuilddeps # make sure we have all dependencies
$ dpkg-buildpackage
For RPM-based systems (Redhat, Suse, etc.),
$ rpmbuild
Building the Documentation
==========================
Prerequisites
-------------
To build the documentation, you must install the following:
- python-dev
- python-pip
- python-virtualenv
- doxygen
- ditaa
- libxml2-dev
- libxslt-dev
- dot
- graphviz
For example:
sudo apt-get install python-dev python-pip python-virtualenv doxygen ditaa libxml2-dev libxslt-dev dot graphviz
Building the Documentation
--------------------------
To build the documentation, ensure that you are in the top-level `/ceph directory, and execute the build script. For example:
$ admin/build-doc
