<li><strong>Project:</strong> GVinum Enhancements<br>
<strong>Student:</strong> Ulf Lilleengen<br>
<strong>Mentor:</strong> &a.le;<br>
<strong>Summary:</strong> <p> </p>
<strong>Summary:</strong>
<p>The project schedule was a bit changed in the start, because
there were some rewriting of some internal parts of
gvinum. Much of the time went to adapt the rest of gvinum to
this new event-based system. This rewrite made gvinum less
vulnerable to race bugs, and made it much easier for a
developer to reason about the code.</p>
<p>Improvements were made to the rebuild and syncing process of
volumes, so that one could still use the volume (e.g. have it
mounted) while rebuilding or syncing gvinum plexes.</p>
<p>The growing of striped volumes (includes RAID-5) in the
background was also implemented. Perhaps most important, is
that most important gvinum features were implemented, and many
bugs were fixed. A lot of testing has been done to make gvinum
more robust.</p>
