Well, the RADOS interface doesn't have a great deal of documentation so I don't know if I can point you at much.
But if you look at Objecter.h, you see that the ObjectOperation has this function: void copy_from(object_t src, snapid_t snapid, object_locator_t src_oloc, version_t src_version, unsigned flags, unsigned src_fadvise_flags) src: the object to copy from snapid: if you want to copy a specific snap instead of HEAD src_oloc: the object locator for the object src_version: the version of the object to copy from (helps identify if it was updated in the meantime) flags: probably don't want to set these, but see PrimaryLogPG::_copy_some for the choices src_fadvise_flags: these are the fadvise flags we have in various places that let you specify things like not to cache the data. Probably leave them unset. -Greg On Wed, Jul 3, 2019 at 2:47 AM nokia ceph <nokiacephus...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hi Greg, > > Can you please share the api details for COPY_FROM or any reference document? > > Thanks , > Muthu > > On Wed, Jul 3, 2019 at 4:12 AM Brad Hubbard <bhubb...@redhat.com> wrote: >> >> On Wed, Jul 3, 2019 at 4:25 AM Gregory Farnum <gfar...@redhat.com> wrote: >> > >> > I'm not sure how or why you'd get an object class involved in doing >> > this in the normal course of affairs. >> > >> > There's a copy_from op that a client can send and which copies an >> > object from another OSD into the target object.
