Sage Weil b7178da066 kclient: nofail mode for osd writes
If nofail is specified, allocate request from mempool, and do not
return error on message send failure.  Instead, mark the request,
and periodically retry.

This isn't perfect: we can still starve indefinitely trying to
send the write, but it'll do until we have a better way to reserve
resources for writeback messages.

Ceph - a scalable distributed file system
-----------------------------------------

Please see http://ceph.newdream.net/ for current info.

----

To build the Linux kernel client,

$ cd src/kernel
$ make
or
$ make KERNELDIR=/path/to/linux
$ insmod ceph.ko
$ mount -t ceph 1.2.3.4:/ /mnt/ceph
...

----

To build the server daemons, and FUSE client,

$ ./autogen.sh
$ ./configure
$ cd src
$ make

(Note that the FUSE client will only be built if libfuse is present.)

----

A quick summary of binaries that will be built in src/

daemons:
 cmon -- monitor daemon.  handles cluster state and configuration
         information.
 cosd -- storage daemon.  stores objects on a given block device.
 cmds -- metadata daemon.  handles file system namespace.
 cmonctl -- send commands to the monitor cluster.

userland clients:
 cfuse -- fuse client.
 csyn -- synthetic workload generator client.

tools:
 mkmonfs -- create a fresh monfs (for a new filesystem)
 monmaptool -- create/edit mon map
 osdmaptool -- create/edit osd map 
 crushtool -- create/edit crush map
 dupstore -- duplicate an osd object store (offline)

development/debugging:
 fakesyn -- simulator with synthetic workload
 fakefuse -- simulator that mounts with fuse
