    Description

      Implement a simple in-memory OSD device for Lustre. This enables Lustre servers to be run without any backing filesystem, such as ldiskfs or openZFS.

      The main goal of this OSD is to make it easier to test Lustre on kernels which don't readily ldiskfs or openZFS. It will also make it simpler to set up a new Lustre dev environment, since many changes to Lustre do not depend on a particular filesystem.
