The first two of these were posted before, but they ran into trouble because assertions that data information fields in ceph messages got set only once were failing. Now those assertions are commented out--initially. The third and fourth patches in this series address the reasons the assertions could fail, by changing the osd client to only set message data fields once, and by changing the mds client to only set them if there is data to be sent. The final patch activates those commented-out assertions. These are available in the branch "review/wip-abstract_data" in the ceph-client git repository. -Alex [PATCH 1/5] libceph: isolate message page field manipulation [PATCH 2/5] libceph: isolate other message data fields [PATCH 3/5] ceph: only set message data pointers if non-empty [PATCH 4/5] libceph: set response data fields earlier [PATCH 5/5] libceph: activate message data assignment checks -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe ceph-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
