[PATCH 0/4] Add ceph root filesystem functionality and documentation.

[mark . doffman]

From: Mark Doffman <mark.doffman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Hi All,

The following patch series adds the ability to use a ceph distributed
file system as the root device. The functionality is similar to
NFS root but for the ceph filesystem.

The patch series adds a new root device option '/dev/ceph'.
Configuration is passed either via a new kernel parameter 'cephroot'
or DHCP option 17.

The patch series applies to v3.12-10714-gd085eb6

Thanks

Mark

  init: Add a new root device option, the Ceph file system
  cephroot: Add DHCP option 17 configuration to ceph root fs.
  Reuse root_nfs_parse_addr() for NFS and CEPH

  Documentation: Document the cephroot functionality
