Re: test osd on zfs

I'll let Brian talk about the virtues of ZFS, but from my perspective it's an interesting option as there are a lot of folks banging on it for NFS servers and it has some interesting capabilities. I have no idea how well it will work in practice, but if we can show that Ceph can run on it at least people can try it out and give us feedback.

Sorry to disturb, but what is the raeson / advantage of using zfs for ceph?

Here's a patch for the ERANGE error (lightly tested).  Sage's patch
looks
good but only covers one of two code paths for xattrs.  With zfs they
may
either be stored as a system attribute which is usually close to the
dnode
on disk (zfs set xattr=sa pool/dataset).  Or they may be stored in
their own
object which is how it's implemented on Solaris (zfs set xattr=on
pool/dataset).  The second method is still the default for compatibility
reasons even though it's slower.  Sage's patch only covered the SA case.


Well, looking at the code again it's not going to work, as setxattr is
going to fail with ERANGE.

Why?  We support an arbitrary number of maximum sized xattrs (65536).
What
am I missing here?

Incidentally, does anybody know of an good xattr test suite we could
add to
our regression tests?

Thanks,
Brian

Note, that zpl_xattr_get_sa() is called by __zpl_xattr_get() which can
also be called by zpl_xattr_get() to test for xattr existence. So it
needs to make sure that zpl_xattr_set() doesn't fail if getting
-ERANGE.

No need for MIN() here.
