<content type='text'>
Add support for mon_get_version requests to libceph.  This reuses much
of the ceph_mon_generic_request infrastructure, with one exception.
Older OSDs don't set mon_get_version reply hdr-&gt;tid even if the
original request had a non-zero tid, which makes it impossible to
lookup ceph_mon_generic_request contexts by tid in get_generic_reply()
for such replies.  As a workaround, we allocate a reply message on the
reply path.  This can probably interfere with revoke, but I don't see
a better way.

<title>libceph: add ceph_kv{malloc,free}() and switch to them</title>

<content type='text'>
Encapsulate kmalloc vs vmalloc memory allocation and freeing logic into
two helpers, ceph_kvmalloc() and ceph_kvfree(), and switch to them.

ceph_kvmalloc() kmalloc()'s a maximum of 8 pages, anything bigger is
vmalloc()'ed with __GFP_HIGHMEM set.  This changes the existing
behaviour:

- for buffers (ceph_buffer_new()), from trying to kmalloc() everything
  and using vmalloc() just as a fallback

- for messages (ceph_msg_new()), from going to vmalloc() for anything
  bigger than a page

- for messages (ceph_msg_new()), from disallowing vmalloc() to use high
  memory

Pull Ceph updates from Sage Weil:
 "A few groups of patches here.  Alex has been hard at work improving
  the RBD code, layout groundwork for understanding the new formats and
  doing layering.  Most of the infrastructure is now in place for the
  final bits that will come with the next window.

  There are a few changes to the data layout.  Jim Schutt's patch fixes
  some non-ideal CRUSH behavior, and a set of patches from me updates
  the client to speak a newer version of the protocol and implement an
  improved hashing strategy across storage nodes (when the server side
  supports it too).

  A pair of patches from Sam Lang fix the atomicity of open+create
  operations.  Several patches from Yan, Zheng fix various mds/client
  issues that turned up during multi-mds torture tests.

  A final set of patches expose file layouts via virtual xattrs, and
  allow the policies to be set on directories via xattrs as well
  (avoiding the awkward ioctl interface and providing a consistent
  interface for both kernel mount and ceph-fuse users)."

Support (and require) the PGID64, PGPOOL3, and OSDENC protocol features.
These have been present in ceph.git since v0.42, Feb 2012.  Require these
features to simplify support; nobody is running older userspace.

Note that the new request and reply encoding is still not in place, so the new
code is not yet functional.

<title>rbd: don't take extra bio reference for osd client</title>

<id>1e32d34cfa6759df58b5f4002664241f2a0fef6a</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently, if the OSD client finds an osd request has had a bio list
attached to it, it drops a reference to it (or rather, to the first
entry on that list) when the request is released.

The code that added that reference (i.e., the rbd client) is
therefore required to take an extra reference to that first bio
structure.

The osd client doesn't really do anything with the bio pointer other
than transfer it from the osd request structure to outgoing (for
writes) and ingoing (for reads) messages.  So it really isn't the
right place to be taking or dropping references.

Furthermore, the rbd client already holds references to all bio
structures it passes to the osd client, and holds them until the
request is completed.  So there's no need for this extra reference
whatsoever.

So remove the bio_put() call in ceph_osdc_release_request(), as
well as its matching bio_get() call in rbd_osd_req_create().

This change could lead to a crash if old libceph.ko was used with
new rbd.ko.  Add a compatibility check at rbd initialization time to
avoid this possibilty.

This resolves:
    http://tracker.ceph.com/issues/3798    and

<content type='text'>
An upcoming change implements semantic change that could lead to
a crash if an old version of the libceph kernel module is used with
a new version of the rbd kernel module.

In order to preclude that possibility, this adds a compatibilty
check interface.  If this interface doesn't exist, the modules are
obviously not compatible.  But if it does exist, this provides a way
of letting the caller know whether it will operate properly with
this libceph module.

Perhaps confusingly, it returns false right now.  The semantic
change mentioned above will make it return true.

This resolves:
