Hi Dimitri,
Right now we're using CentOS for the base image for Ceph containers.
Now that CentOS is moving to a rolling-upgrade-esque style release
with CentOS Stream, it's an open question if we should stick with it.
A more stable base image that gets reliable security fixes would be
preferable. One thought is to use Red Hat's Universal Base Image (UBI)
[1] which is just RHEL-lite with a target audience of upstream
projects. Or perhaps we can select another base image.
What do you think?

We're happy to announce the 22nd and likely final backport release in the Nautilus series. Ultimately, we recommend all users upgrade to newer Ceph releases.
For a detailed release notes with links & changelog please refer to the official blog entry at https://ceph.io/en/news/blog/2021/v14-2-22-nautilus-released
Notable Changes
---------------
* This release sets `bluefs_buffered_io` to true by default to improve performance
for metadata heavy workloads. Enabling this option has been reported to
occasionally cause excessive kernel swapping under certain workloads.
Currently, the most consistent performing combination is to enable
bluefs_buffered_io and disable system level swap.
* The default value of `bluestore_cache_trim_max_skip_pinned` has been
increased to 1000 to control memory growth due to onodes.
* Several other bug fixes in BlueStore, including a fix for an unexpected
ENOSPC bug in Avl/Hybrid allocators.
* The trimming logic in the monitor has been made dynamic, with the
introduction of `paxos_service_trim_max_multiplier`, a factor by which
`paxos_service_trim_max` is multiplied to make trimming faster,
when required. Setting it to 0 disables the upper bound check for trimming
and makes the monitors trim at the maximum rate.
* A `--max <n>` option is available with the `osd ok-to-stop` command to
provide up to N OSDs that can be stopped together without making PGs
unavailable.
* OSD: the option `osd_fast_shutdown_notify_mon` has been introduced to allow
the OSD to notify the monitor it is shutting down even if `osd_fast_shutdown`
is enabled. This helps with the monitor logs on larger clusters, that may get
many 'osd.X reported immediately failed by osd.Y' messages, and confuse tools.
* A long-standing bug that prevented 32-bit and 64-bit client/server
interoperability under msgr v2 has been fixed. In particular, mixing armv7l
(armhf) and x86_64 or aarch64 servers in the same cluster now works.

Yuri, Zac, Ernesto.
- *Releases:*
- Nautilus release notes: https://github.com/ceph/ceph/pull/41958
- Pacific release status:
- Yuri: PRs to get merged today/tomorrow.
- For OpenStack team to start testing it.
- *Community*:
- *Website:*
- New Ceph website is out: (https://github.com/ceph/ceph.io).
- Old one is still available at https://old.ceph.com
- *Ceph-users threads:*
- Cephadm Containers
- Sage: What can we do there? Identify most impacting issues.
- Non-linux platforms? FreeBSD?
- Sebastian: FreeBSD could support non-systemd
containerization.
- Patrick: Concerns raised about debuggability. To ensure
legacy experience (logs, etc.).
- *Other:*
- Ceph on Windows contract
- Already signed.
- Biweekly sync (David).
- Pipeline to produce Windows artifacts.
- *Developers:*
- *Lab:*
- CY22 Red Hat budget planning due 7/23
- Smithee replacement budget (issues with NVMe cards).
- Patrick: More developer machines? VMs (needed for package
isolation)? Containers are not enough for advanced use cases.
- David: That falls under Linux Foundation capex.

- *Redmine:*
- Ilya: can't assign new contributors to specific trackers.
- Patrick: there are 2 developer groups: the Ceph one
(everyone) and the Core one (mostly Red Hat, SUSE, etc.,
which had access
to private/embargoed trackers).
- *Events:*

this is not accurate. in addition to "priority", i.e. weight or
proportion, there are two other parameters in this picture --
reservation and limit. each client is configured with its own weight,
reservation and limit. that's why "mClock" is prefixed with "m"
(multiple), i think, as there are multiple clocks driven by these 3
parameters.

currently, we are only using mClock for QoS in OSD. its distributed
variant, dmClock is not used yet at the time of writing. also, we
don't do QoS in BlueStore. instead, it's implemented in the pipeline
at a higher level. you might want to take a look at how OSDShard and
mClockScheduler interact. basically, they prioritize requests based on
the predefined profile [0] and settings, so that the ones which need
higher QoS have a better chance of being executed sooner. please note,
the requests being scheduled by OSDShard's scheduler include not only
I/O requests, but also requests like pg peering requests.

[Correct subject]
Hi all,
Does anyone know how to claim-append part of bufferlist? After the head part has been claim-appended, the left part can be still cliam-appended.
I know there's bufferlist::claim_append API. However it will claim append the whole bufferlist.
The background is:
I use one function handle_io_am_write_request to recevie the network data sent by peer node, then append it into the cache data space(e.g. bufferlist object recv_pending_bl).
Then I trigger the up software layer to read the received the data in recv_pending_bl.
The code is below (you can also click the above link to read the code, no more than 40 lines).
There're several bugs in below code. I'm looking for the high efficiency method to receive the data and trigger the up software layer to read the data in the right way.
Any suggesion is welcome to supply the high efficiency method to do it.
B.R.
Changcheng
