Subject: 2.6.26 (x86 vs. x86_64) different /sys directory structure for md?
Date: Sun, 31 Aug 2008 06:56:04 -0400 (EDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.DEB.1.10.0808310649390.4772@p34.internal.lan> (raw)
Have two hosts, an (md) raid5 on each:
Linux p26 2.6.26 #2 SMP Sat Jul 26 13:23:40 EDT 2008 i686 GNU/Linux
Linux p63 2.6.26 #2 SMP Sat Jul 26 08:21:07 EDT 2008 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Was going to run a check on my raids:
echo check > sync_action
I noticed:
For x86 (Debian Testing), the path to sync_action is:
/sys/block/md0/md/sync_action
For x86_64 (Debian Testing), the path to sync_action is:
/sys/devices/virtual/block/md0/md/sync_action
p26:/dev# find /sys/|grep -i sync_action
/sys/block/md0/md/sync_action
p26:/dev#
p63:~# find /sys/|grep -i sync_action
/sys/devices/virtual/block/md0/md/sync_action
/sys/devices/virtual/block/md3/md/sync_action
/sys/devices/virtual/block/md2/md/sync_action
/sys/devices/virtual/block/md1/md/sync_action
p63:~#
The kernels are compiled similarly in terms of overall configuration, I
will need to take this into account for scripting array checks etc, but I
was curious why are they different between architectures and is it going
to change in the future? Should one take the path to sync_action with a
grain of salt? Or do I have an incorrect configuration option specified
somewhere that had made this occur?
