Hi,
I am happy to announce that csa-2.0.0 is now available for download.
Please see CSA web site: http://oss.sgi.com/projects/csa/
Kernel patches to support csa-2.0.0 are provided. Initially available
are csa-2.4.25.patch and csa-2.6.5.patch. You will need corresponding
kernel patches for job and pagg as well to run csa. Job and pagg
kernel patches are available at ftp://oss.sgi.com/projects/pagg/download
Alternatively, you can download csa-job-pagg-2.4.25.patch and
csa-job-pagg-2.6.5.patch directly from the CSA site.
Major changes for csa-2.0.0 release are:
1) CSA kernel function is now accessed through a new libcsa.so library.
CSA application can take advantage of CSA features using the
new and supported API library interface.
2) Consistent naming of the product. The rpm used to be called
csa-job-acct, the kernel driver/module is called csa_job_acct.o,
and 'chkconfig' refers it as 'csaacct', while we consistently calls
this product "CSA" in the web pages and man pages. In this release,
the rpm name is called "csa", the kernel module is named csa.o, and
chkconfig refers this product as csa as well.
3) CSA kernel interface via /proc/csa ioctl is implemented. Better yet,
the kernel interface mechanism is shielded from application through
a supported API library interface.
Please report any feedback or bugs to me or to this mailing list.
Your feedback is very much appreciated!
Cheers,
- jay
