Bug #3740
closedceph-client: change to be based on 3.8-rc2
0%
Description
Our current ceph-client tree is based on Linux 3.6.
That is fairly old code (late September, 2012). We
should update the tree to be based on newer code.
I prepared an update to 3.7, by rebasing our current
testing branch. But that's no good because it changes
the commit ids everything we've already sent to Linus
for 3.8.
The best solution is probably to simply update to use
Linux 3.8-rc2, and base all new work on top of that.
This can't be done until we get this resolved, however:

I discussed this with Sage yesterday. We're now up to
Linux 3.8-rc5. Merging our testing branch into v3.5-rc5
produces a clean result, so I'm doing that instead of
the rebase. (I rebased and tested overnight, and the
result should be the same, just the commit history will
be better with a merge.)
There were a couple of lockdep reports that I think are new.
One is between a framebuffer semaphore and a console lock.
A second is between the rbd ctl_mutex and something (s_active)
in sysfs (see http://tracker.ceph.com/issues/3939).
And finally there were a few reports from XFS of sys_mkdir
being delayed more than 120 seconds while running fsstress.
I don't think this is new, but it's something to be aware
of.

I have finished my testing and have now updated the
ceph-client "testing" branch to be based on 3.8-rc5,
with the prior testing branch content merged into it.
