From bae818ee1577c27356093901a0ea48f672eda514 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ronny Hegewald Date: Thu, 15 Oct 2015 18:50:46 +0000 Subject: rbd: require stable pages if message data CRCs are enabled rbd requires stable pages, as it performs a crc of the page data before they are send to the OSDs. But since kernel 3.9 (patch 1d1d1a767206fbe5d4c69493b7e6d2a8d08cc0a0 "mm: only enforce stable page writes if the backing device requires it") it is not assumed anymore that block devices require stable pages. This patch sets the necessary flag to get stable pages back for rbd. In a ceph installation that provides multiple ext4 formatted rbd devices "bad crc" messages appeared regularly (ca 1 message every 1-2 minutes on every OSD that provided the data for the rbd) in the OSD-logs before this patch. After this patch this messages are pretty much gone (only ca 1-2 / month / OSD).
