    storage backend: Add RBD (RADOS Block Device) support · 74951ead
    Wido den Hollander 提交于
    This patch adds support for a new storage backend with RBD support.
    
    RBD is the RADOS Block Device and is part of the Ceph distributed storage
    system.
    
    It comes in two flavours: Qemu-RBD and Kernel RBD, this storage backend only
    supports Qemu-RBD, thus limiting the use of this storage driver to Qemu only.
    
    To function this backend relies on librbd and librados being present on the
    local system.
    
    The backend also supports Cephx authentication for safe authentication with
    the Ceph cluster.
    
    For storing credentials it uses the built-in secret mechanism of libvirt.
