About

|
|
|
||
|
|
Ceph Windows support is currently a work in progress. For now, the main focus
|
||
|
|
is the client side, allowing Windows hosts to consume rados, rbd and cephfs
|
||
|
|
resources.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Building
|
||
|
|
--------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
At the moment, mingw gcc is the only supported compiler for building ceph
|
||
|
|
components for Windows. Support for msvc and clang will be added soon.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`win32_build.sh`_ can be used for cross compiling Ceph and its dependencies.
|
||
|
|
It may be called from a Linux environment, including Windows Subsystem for
|
||
|
|
Linux. MSYS2 and CygWin may also work but those weren't tested.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|

CEPH_DIR The Ceph source code directory. The same as the script.

|
BUILD_DIR The directory where the $CEPH_DIR/build
|

|
|
generated artifacts will be
|
||
|
|
placed.
|

|
|
DEPS_DIR The directory where the Ceph $CEPH_DIR/build.deps
|
||
|
|
dependencies will be built.

||
|
|
NUM_WORKERS The number of workers to use The number of vcpus
|

when building Ceph. available
|

|
CLEAN_BUILD Clean the build directory.
|
||
|
|
SKIP_BUILD Run cmake without actually
|
||
|
|
performing the build.

Current status
|
||
|
|
--------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The rados and rbd binaries and libs compile successfully and can be used on
|
||
|
|
Windows, successfully connecting to the cluster and consuming pools.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The libraries have to be built statically at the moment. The reason is that
|
||
|
|
there are a few circular library dependencies or unspecified dependencies,
|
||
|
|
which isn't supported when building DLLs. This mostly affects ``cls`` libraries.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A significant number of tests from the ``tests`` directory have been port,
|
||
|
|
providing adequate coverage.
