Lazy I/O permits page-cache buffered I/O even when multiple clients have a file open for writing, for workloads such as HPC that can tolerate relaxed cache coherency. Linux 7.4 also makes the deprecated Ceph inline-data feature opt-in through `CEPH_FS_INLINE_DATA`, which defaults off. Users relying on inline data must set `CEPH_FS_INLINE_DATA=Y`; the excerpt says removal of the deprecated code is planned for a future release. The pull request also includes bug fixes and cleanup. ### Source excerpt The Ceph kernel client changes have been submitted for Linux 7.4 ahead of its merge window expected to wrap up on Sunday... ## v20.2.2 Tentacle released DevFeed: [v20.2.2 Tentacle released]() Original publisher: [Read original article]() Author: Yuri Weinstein, Patrick Donnelly Published: 2026-06-16T00:00:00Z Content type: release Language: en Sources: [Ceph Blog]() Topics: [bug](), [Vulnerabilities](), [Memory Leaks](), [Encryption](), [configuration](), [IO]() Tags: [2026](), [aio](), [blog-post](), [bug](), [ceph](), [configuration](), [en-article](), [en-blog-post](), [encryption](), [io](), [memory-leaks](), [rados](), [release](), [rgw](), [storage](), [tentacle](), [ui](), [update](), [vulnerabilities]() ### AI overview Ceph v20.2.2 Tentacle is a minor release that adds Rocky 10 package-install support and recommends updating. It fixes issues across MDS, OSD, RGW, RADOS libraries, watch/notify operations, asynchronous utilities, and the dashboard, including security vulnerabilities, memory leaks, encrypted-object lifecycle problems, and UI and configuration improvements. ### Source excerpt This is the second minor release in the Tentacle series. We recommend that all users update to this release. Release Date ¶ June 16, 2026 Notable Changes ¶ Rocky 10 package-based installs are now supported starting with v20.2.2. Please see the supported platforms for current and planned support in Ceph. MDS (Metadata Server) ¶ Segmentation fault fixed due to incorrect queueing of request retries. OSD (Object Storage Daemon) ¶ PGLog Missed List: Fixed a bug to ensure the correct version is attached to the missing list when ignoring log entries. Data Integrity Asserts: Added assertions to explicitly catch potential corruption in the OSD missing list. RGW (RADOS Gateway) ¶ Lifecycle Management: Fixed lifecycle transition issues affecting encrypted multipart objects. REST & Query Handling: RESTArgs::get_string() now properly URL-decodes incoming query parameters. RADOS / librados / neorados ¶ Linger Operations: Rewrote safety checks to eliminate use-after-free vulnerabilities and LingerOp memory leaks when an unwatch operation returns ENOTCONN. Replaced the flawed is_valid_watch() check with a safe linger_by_cookie() lookup which safely manages LingerOp references using intrusive_ptr. Ensured librados linger callbacks hold a persistent reference to LingerOp to protect against races with simultaneous linger_cancel() requests. Configured librados::IoCtxImpl::aio_unwatch() to asynchronously deliver ENOTCONN to AioCompletion instead of returning the error directly. Watch/Notify: Fixed neorados notification queue bounds enforcement so that an overflow marker is only appended on the first message exceeding capacity, rather than duplicating it on every subsequent message. Prevented double-cleanup triggers in watch/notify operations when incoming errors arrive after maybe_cleanup() runs. Fixed a bug where notify would lose original error values by ensuring it no longer attempts to decode empty responses. Enhanced io_context shutdown procedures to clear handlers and route cleanl ## Managing Multiple Lua Scripts with Ceph Object Storage DevFeed: [Managing Multiple Lua Scripts with Ceph Object Storage]() Original publisher: [Read original article]() Author: Kirby Chin Published: 2026-06-10T00:00:00Z Content type: article Language: en Sources: [Ceph Blog]() Topics: [Lua](), [Script](), [Security](), [Command-line interface](), [cloud-infrastructure](), [ransomware]() Tags: [availability](), [blog](), [blog-post](), [ceph](), [cli](), [data](), [developer](), [en-article](), [en-blog-post](), [examples](), [feature](), [go](), [lua](), [management](), [new-feature](), [object-storage](), [operations](), [rados](), [ransomware](), [rgw](), [s3](), [scripting](), [security](), [storage]() ### AI overview This article introduces a Ceph RADOS Gateway feature for managing multiple Lua scripts within the same request context and tenant. It demonstrates scripts for enforcing bucket object locks to mitigate ransomware risks and for optimizing storage through object auto-tiering. ### Source excerpt Since the Pacific release, Lua scripting in Ceph's RADOS Gateway (RGW) has provided users the ability to interpolate a single script to upload operations per request context and tenant. This way of working might be completely fine for a storage deployment with limited scripting customizations. However, script management becomes increasingly difficult as more than one team wants to get involved in managing the Lua script within the same context and tenant. For this reason, we've released a new feature in RGW allowing you to manage more than one Lua script at a time. In this blog, we'll go over a couple of examples to walk you through how this feature can help your team to reduce runtime errors and lower developer friction when managing Lua scripts in RGW. To begin, we will create a script to enforce a bucket security control and then add another script to demonstrate the new feature. Script 1: Bucket security ¶ Let's suppose we are part of a security team and want to mitigate the risk of ransomware threats happening on our storage platform. One possible way to achieve this is to implement a Write Once, Read Many (WORM) strategy to add an object lock onto any newly created bucket. By using an object lock, we can add a constraint to write objects to disk only once, ensuring that an infected client cannot delete or override objects at a later time. To set our WORM strategy, we can create a Lua script in the prerequest context that aborts when a create_bucket operation is made without the write-once (object lock) requirement. objectlock.lua -- enforcing object lock on bucket creation if Request.RGWOp == "create_bucket" and Request.HTTP.Metadata["x-amz-bucket-object-lock-enabled"] ~= "true" then RGWDebugLog("object lock is missing on bucket: " .. Request.Bucket.Name) Request.Response.Message = "Bucket must have object lock enabled" return RGW_ABORT_REQUEST end You can create a new objectlock.lua file with the contents above and run the CLI commands below to upload the scr ## Admin Stories: Implement Object Storage in CSC's cPouta DevFeed: [Admin Stories: Implement Object Storage in CSC's cPouta]() Original publisher: [Read original article]() Author: Unknown (noreply@blogger.com) Published: 2018-02-12T12:58:00Z Content type: article Language: en Sources: [CSC - IT Center For Science - Cloud Team]() Topics: [ceph](), [Amazon S3](), [Cloud](), [API]() Tags: [backend](), [ceph](), [cpouta](), [infrastructure](), [object](), [object-storage](), [openstack](), [rados](), [radosgw](), [rgw](), [s3](), [server](), [servers](), [storage](), [volume]() ### AI overview This article explains the decisions behind implementing object storage in CSC's cPouta cloud. It describes using Ceph RADOS Gateway with existing Ceph clusters and clarifies the relationship between S3 buckets, Swift containers, accounts, and OpenStack project IDs. ### Source excerpt In our previous user survey we found out that you were interested in "OpenStack admin stories". This will be our first attempt in doing that. User guide: https://research.csc.fi/pouta-user-guide While implementing object storage we made a few decisions. This blog post is about highlighting the decisions and their backing thought process. Some background information: cPouta uses OpenStack as the underlying cloud middleware, and Ceph for storing volumes and images. And going forward, objects, too. Terminology RADOS Gateway/RadosGW/RGW/Ceph RGW/Ceph radosgw/radosgw. We mean the same thing. It's a piece of software which exposes an API for storing and retrieving objects. Ceph - the storage system which RadosGW daemons access as a client. Buckets in S3 and Containers in Swift are synonymous. The Ceph radosgw-admin tool also operates on buckets. The latter are mostly the same, but can contain a bit more information i.e. OpenStack project ID. If we write about buckets, the reader can presume we are referring to S3 buckets and Swift containers unless otherwise noted. Account is something that RGW binds usage data into. In some of the radosgw-admin CLI calls, accounts are referred to as users or UIDs. These users and/or accounts get a mapping to OpenStack project IDs in our configuration. So be it account/user/project, we are always talking about the same thing. - Why Ceph RadosGW The other option we briefly looked at for an Object Storage server was the OpenStack Swift server. Yes, there is an API called Swift and a piece of sofware called Swift which serves the Swift API. Not to mention the programming language Swift, the ISO standard SWIFT or the Scottish potato variant Swift. In the end we used none of these for backend because we prefer to reuse existing infrastructure. We already have Ceph clusters used for Virtual Machine image and block (volume) storage in our clouds. Installing some Ceph RadosGW servers and pointing those to an existing Ceph cluster utilizes a lot o
