Right, I missed that. Setting src_fsc->have_copy_from2 to false should be
moved into the two 'if (err)' statements following the calls to
ceph_osdc_wait_requests. I'll go fix that. And test it with on a cluster
with OSDs that don't have this copy-from2 operation.

Well, the problem is that an error may occur *after* we have already done
some copies. In that case we need to return the number of bytes that have
been successfully copied instead of an error; eventually, subsequent calls
to complete the copy_file_range will then return the error. At least this
is how I understood the man page (i.e. similar to the write(2) syscall).

Not sure I understood your comment. You would rather have:
* ncopies initialized only once outside the loop
* have a counter counting the number of objects copied
* call ceph_osdc_wait_requests() when this counter is a multiple of
ncopies
Is that it?
