Hi Sage,

Check this:
https://github.com/zhjwpku/ceph/commit/2dddc32eb18c2a065963ae33674cb2c8a9e64dc5

The original patch doesn't compile, I add dump and
generate_test_instances, now it passed
the 'make', I am running the 'make check'.

Not sure did I do it right, please give some feedback.

Thanks!
