[RFC PATCH 0/5] libceph: add support for sparse reads to msgr2/crc

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This is a first stab at a patchset to add support for sparse reads to
libceph. This is a prerequisite for fscrypt support, since we need to be
able to know whether a region is sparse in order to know whether we need
to decrypt it.

The patches basically work at this point, but it's still a RFC
for a few reasons:

1) the ms_mode=secure and ms_mode=legacy codepaths are not yet
supported. "legacy" doesn't look too bad, but "secure" is a bit
tougher, as I'd like to avoid extra buffering.

2) the OSD currently throws back -EINVAL on a sparse read if an extent
has a non-zero truncate_seq. I've opened this bug to request that this
be remedied: https://tracker.ceph.com/issues/54280

3) I'm not sure I got the revoke_at_* patch correct. I added a new field
to the v2_info structure. Maybe there is some better way to handle that?
What's the best way to test the revocation codepaths?

I ran this through xfstests yesterday, and several of them failed
because of #2 above, but it didn't oops!
