Hi,
I am planning to support read localise feature for RGW servers similar to what RBD volumes support. From code reading, it looks to pass "librados::OPERATION_LOCALIZE_READS" before sending the request to RADOS. I have created a tracker issue for this feature https://tracker.ceph.com/issues/61701, this will be per server config option. I don't know about any other technical hurdles in implementing this feature. Please share your thoughts on the same.
Thanks and regards, Jiffin
thanks Jiffin, that sounds simple enough, though rgw issues librados reads in many different places that would need to manage this flag i'm curious why this is a per-op flag, rather than a global librados setting. is there a reason that rgw would only want *some* of its reads localized? are there any implications for read-after-write consistency that we need to worry about here?
