[RFC PATCH 3/3] ceph: add module param to throttle 'copy-from2' operations

From: Luis Henriques
Date: Mon Jan 27 2020 - 11:43:38 EST


This patch adds a ceph kernel module parameter that allows to throttle the
amount of parallel requests that can be sent to the OSDs before waiting
for the completion. This allows to prevent DoS'ing the ODSs with too many
requests at once when copying a big file.
