[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 0/4] More RBD updates

[Sage Weil]

Hi,

Here are a few more improvements to the qemu rbd support.  The first 
patch makes the configuration file handling cleaner (do not error out if 
/etc/ceph/ceph.conf doesn't exist).  One allows characters in the conf 
string to be escaped, so you can (for example) specify an ip\:port (':' 
is used as a delimiter).

The last patch implements flush when rbd_flush() is available.  This lets 
us take advantage of write buffering in newer versions of librbd, which 
improves performance significantly for many workloads (including the 
trivial qemu-img convert).

Thanks!
