Merged: No


Ceph as a promising unified distributed storage system is widely used in the
world of OpenStack. OpenStack users deploying Ceph for block (Cinder) and
object (S3/Swift) are unsurprisingly looking at Manila and CephFS to round out
a unified storage solution. Since the typical hypervisor people are using is
Qemu/KVM, it is necessary to provide a high performance, easy to use, file
system service in it. VirtFS aims to offers paravirtualized system services and
simple passthrough for directories from host to guest, which currently only
support local file system, this patch wants to add CephFS support in VirtFS.
