No single points of failure. + * N-way replication of data across storage nodes + * Fast recovery from node failures + * Automatic rebalancing of data on node addition/removal + * Easy deployment: most FS components are userspace daemons + +Also, + * Flexible snapshots (on any directory) + * Recursive accounting (nested files, directories, bytes) + +In contrast to cluster filesystems like GFS, OCFS2, and GPFS that rely +on symmetric access by all clients to shared block devices, Ceph +separates data and metadata management into independent server +clusters, similar to Lustre. Unlike Lustre, however, metadata and +storage nodes run entirely as user space daemons. Storage nodes +utilize btrfs to store data objects, leveraging its advanced features +(checksumming, metadata replication, etc.). File data is striped +across storage nodes in large chunks to distribute workload and +facilitate high throughputs. When storage nodes fail, data is +re-replicated in a distributed fashion by the storage nodes themselves +(with some minimal coordination from a cluster monitor), making the +system extremely efficient and scalable. + +Metadata servers effectively form a large, consistent, distributed +in-memory cache above the file namespace that is extremely scalable, +dynamically redistributes metadata in response to workload changes, +and can tolerate arbitrary (well, non-Byzantine) node failures. The +metadata server takes a somewhat unconventional approach to metadata +storage to significantly improve performance for common workloads. In +particular, inodes with only a single link are embedded in +directories, allowing entire directories of dentries and inodes to be +loaded into its cache with a single I/O operation. The contents of +extremely large directories can be fragmented and managed by +independent metadata servers, allowing scalable concurrent access. + +The system offers automatic data rebalancing/migration when scaling +from a small cluster of just a few nodes to many hundreds, without +requiring an administrator carve the data set into static volumes or +go through the tedious process of migrating data between servers. +When the file system approaches full, new nodes can be easily added +and things will "just work." + +Ceph includes flexible snapshot mechanism that allows a user to create +a snapshot on any subdirectory (and its nested contents) in the +system. Snapshot creation and deletion are as simple as 'mkdir +.snap/foo' and 'rmdir .snap/foo'. + +Ceph also provides some recursive accounting on directories for nested +files and bytes. That is, a 'getfattr -d foo' on any directory in the +system will reveal the total number of nested regular files and +subdirectories, and a summation of all nested file sizes. This makes +the identification of large disk space consumers relatively quick, as +no 'du' or similar recursive scan of the file system is required. + + +Mount Syntax +============ + +The basic mount syntax is: + + # mount -t ceph monip[:port][,monip2[:port]...]:/[subdir] mnt + +You only need to specify a single monitor, as the client will get the +full list when it connects. (However, if the monitor you specify +happens to be down, the mount won't succeed.) The port can be left +off if the monitor is using the default. So if the monitor is at +1.2.3.4, + + # mount -t ceph 1.2.3.4:/ /mnt/ceph + +is sufficient. If /sbin/mount.ceph is installed, a hostname can be +used instead of an IP address. + + + +Mount Options +============= + + ip=A.B.C.D[:N] + Specify the IP and/or port the client should bind to locally. + There is normally not much reason to do this. If the IP is not + specified, the client's IP address is determined by looking at the + address it's connection to the monitor originates from. + + wsize=X + Specify the maximum write size in bytes. By default there is no + maximu. Ceph will normally size writes based on the file stripe + size. + + rsize=X + Specify the maximum readahead. + + mount_timeout=X + Specify the timeout value for mount (in seconds), in the case + of a non-responsive Ceph file system. The default is 30 + seconds. + + rbytes + When stat() is called on a directory, set st_size to 'rbytes', + the summation of file sizes over all files nested beneath that + directory. This is the default. + + norbytes + When stat() is called on a directory, set st_size to the + number of entries in that directory. + + nocrc + Disable CRC32C calculation for data writes. If set, the OSD + must rely on TCP's error correction to detect data corruption + in the data payload. + + noasyncreaddir + Disable client's use its local cache to satisfy readdir + requests. (This does not change correctness; the client uses + cached metadata only when a lease or capability ensures it is + valid.) + + +More Information +================ + +For more information on Ceph, see the home page at + http://ceph.newdream.net/ + +The Linux kernel client source tree is available at + git://ceph.newdream.net/linux-ceph-client.git + +and the source for the full system is at + git://ceph.newdream.net/ceph.git diff --git a/Documentation/ioctl/ioctl-number.txt b/Documentation/ioctl/ioctl-number.txt index 35c9b51d20ea..dd5806f4fcc4 100644 --- a/Documentation/ioctl/ioctl-number.txt +++ b/Documentation/ioctl/ioctl-number.txt @@ -291,6 +291,7 @@ Code Seq#(hex) Include File Comments 0x92 00-0F drivers/usb/mon/mon_bin.c 0x93 60-7F linux/auto_fs.h 0x94 all fs/btrfs/ioctl.h +0x97 00-7F fs/ceph/ioctl.h Ceph file system 0x99 00-0F 537-Addinboard driver <mailto:buk@buks.ipn.de> 0xA0 all linux/sdp/sdp.h Industrial Device Project diff --git a/Documentation/networking/Makefile b/Documentation/networking/Makefile index 6d8af1ac56c4..5aba7a33aeeb 100644 --- a/Documentation/networking/Makefile +++ b/Documentation/networking/Makefile @@ -6,3 +6,5 @@ hostprogs-y := ifenslave # Tell kbuild to always build the programs always := $(hostprogs-y) + +obj-m := timestamping/ diff --git a/Documentation/networking/timestamping/Makefile b/Documentation/networking/timestamping/Makefile index 2a1489fdc036..e79973443e9f 100644 --- a/Documentation/networking/timestamping/Makefile +++ b/Documentation/networking/timestamping/Makefile @@ -1,6 +1,13 @@ -CPPFLAGS = -I../../../include +# kbuild trick to avoid linker error.
