Hi Linus,
Please consider pulling the Ceph distributed file system client from
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sage/ceph-client.git for-linus
which includes a patch with the recent write_inode API change, but does
not merge Al's write_inode branch, as that currently conflicts with your
tree in a few places. (OTOH, my branch has a trivial conflict in
Documentation/ioctl/ioctl-numbers.txt.)
Red Hat has bugs open asking for Ceph, and has included the userspace in
F13, but they are antsy about pulling in the kernel client before it goes
upstream. Another half dozen people have piped up on LKML or the ceph
list asking to see it pushed upstream.
A larger number of people are evaluating and testing the system. A few
sites have reasonably sized clusters set up (>16 nodes), the rest have
tried the system on a small number of nodes. At this point you still
won't find a particularly large user base, or as much demand as say btrfs
simply because Ceph is useful for a much smaller audience--those with lots
of storage boxes they'd like to aggregate into a single file system--and
because those people tend to be pretty careful with their data.
Although stability has improved greatly is the last few months, Ceph is
still relatively new and experimental for a something as conservative as
storage, and only time and testing will change that. Getting the code
upstream sooner rather than later will accelerate that process by reducing
barriers to testing, expanding the pool of systems with a usable client,
and making it easier for distros to include it.
Thanks-
sage
