Linux 4.18内核中移除了Lustre文件系统

在 Linux 4.18 的维护周期中,内核暂存区得到了超过一千个的补丁,共有168000行新代码出现,同时有227000行代码被删除。为了使内核暂存区变得更轻,Lustre 文件系统在这次变更中已经被删除。
Lustre 文件系统是一个用于集群计算的并行分布式文件系统,已经存在了十五年。虽然超级计算机和其它集群计算设置在使用 Lustre 文件系统,但由于在清除代码库方面缺乏进展,作为临时子系统维护者的 Greg Kroah-Hartman 删除了 Lustre 的代码。与此同时,Lustre开发人员继续在他们自己的外部树上工作。
现在,Lustre 使用者需要外部依赖才能使用 Lustre,直到将来 Lustre 可以再次进入主线内核树的状态。 Greg KH 数年前已经表达过他对内核 Lustre 文件系统代码状态的不满。
其他内核暂存区工作包括各种驱动程序清理、DebugFS 清理、NCPFS/IPX 代码的删除以及各种其他编码改进。

Lustre is a shared disk file system, generally used for large scale cluster computing. The name Lustre is a portmanteau of Linux and cluster. The project aims to provide a file system for clusters of tens of thousands of nodes with petabytes of storage capacity, without compromising speed or security. Lustre is available under the GNU GPL.<br><br>Lustre is designed, developed and maintained by Sun Microsystems, Inc. with input from many other individuals and companies. Sun completed its acquisition of Cluster File Systems, Inc., including the Lustre file system, on October 2, 2007, with the intention of bringing the benefits of Lustre technologies to Sun's ZFS file system and the Solaris operating system.<br><br>Lustre file systems are used in computer clusters ranging from small workgroup clusters to large-scale, multi-site clusters. Fifteen of the top 30 supercomputers in the world use Lustre file systems, including the world's fastest supercomputer, the Blue Gene/L at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL). Other supercomputers that use the Lustre file system include systems at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, and Los Alamos National Laboratory in North America, the largest system in Asia at Tokyo Institute of Technology, and the largest system in Europe at CEA.<br><br>Lustre file systems can support up to tens of thousands of client systems, petabytes (PBs) of storage and hundreds of gigabytes per second (GB/s) of I/O throughput. Businesses ranging from Internet service providers to large financial institutions deploy Lustre file systems in their datacenters. Due to the high scalability of Lustre file systems, Lustre deployments are popular in the oil and gas, manufacturing, rich media and finance sectors.<br>
