Incorporating the KSAL EC Algorithm Plugin into Ceph Source Code

Before compilation, integrate the KSAL EC algorithm plugin into Ceph source code on the compilation server so that the KSAL EC algorithm can be used in Ceph. Any one of the client nodes can be used as the compilation server.

1. Obtain ceph-14.2.8.tar.gz and ceph-ksal-ec-plugin.patch and place them in the /home directory.
2. Decompress the source code.

   1 2	cd /home tar zxvf ceph-14.2.8.tar.gz

3. Place ceph-ksal-ec-plugin.patch in /home/ceph-14.2.8.

   cp /home/ceph-ksal-ec-plugin.patch /home/ceph-14.2.8

4. Incorporate the plugin.

   1 2	cd /home/ceph-14.2.8 patch -p1 < ceph-ksal-ec-plugin.patch
