With a set of patches [1] for HDFS's devstack plugin (devstack-plugin-hdfs project), I'm able to get the CI job, gate-manila-tempest-dsvm-hdfs, to pass. The patches, except one, have been up for a long time. The maintainer of the HDFS plugin has not reviewed them. The fixes were not hard. I also am concerned about the lack of maintenance of the plugin, and the driver, for e.g. is someone going to implement the new 'update_access' API for the HDFS driver that'd soon be a requirement for all drivers?
