Re: the state of cephfs in giant

Hello sage, last time I used CephFS it had a strange behaviour when if used in conjunction with a nfs reshare of the cephfs mount point, I experienced a partial random disapearance of the tree folders.

According to people in the mailing list it was a kernel module bug (not using ceph-fuse) do you know if any work has been done recently in that topic?

best regards

Thanks for all the work and specially for concentrating on CephFS! We
have been watching and testing for years by now and really hope to
change our Clusters to CephFS soon.

For kernel maintenance reasons, we only want to run longterm stable
kernels. And for performance reasons and because of severe known
problems we want to avoid Fuse. How good are our chances of a stable
system with the kernel client in the latest longterm kernel 3.14? Will
there be further bugfixes or feature backports?

There are important bug fixes missing from 3.14.  IIRC, the EC, cache
tiering, and firefly CRUSH changes aren't there yet either (they landed in
3.15), and that is not appropriate for a stable series.

They can be backported, but no commitment yet on that :)
