It's very high on our priority list to get a solution merged in the
upstream kernel. There was a proposal to use DLM to distribute the PGR
state between target gateways (a la the SCST target) and it's quite
possible that would have the least amount of upstream resistance since
it would work for all backends and not just RBD. We, of course, would
love to just use the Ceph cluster to distribute the state information
instead of requiring a bolt-on DLM (with its STONITH error handling),
but we'll take what we can get (merged).
I believe SUSE uses a custom downstream kernel that stores the PGR
state in the Ceph cluster but requires two round-trips to the cluster
for each IO (first to verify the PGR state and the second to perform
the IO). The PetaSAN project is built on top of these custom kernel
patches as well, I believe.
