[LU-4017] Add project quota support feature

• Type: New Feature
• Resolution: Fixed
• Priority: Minor
• Fix Version/s: Lustre 2.10.0

Description

OST (or MDT) pool feature enables users to group OSTs together to make object placement more flexible which is a very useful mechanism for system management. However the pool support of quota is not completed now which limits the use of it. Luckily current quota framework is really powerful and flexible which makes it possible to add new extension.

We believe that pool support of quota will be helpful for a lot of use cases, so we are trying to complete it. With the help from the community, we've made some progress. The full patch will be a big one which involves quite a lot of components of Lustre. Any advice or feedback about the implementation will be really helpful.

Since RHEL tends to use 5 year old stacks we are looking at 2021 when we don't need patched kernels

[Shuichi Ihara (Inactive)]

Yes. That is true at this point. We are scoping out what is required to extend this work further.

Exactly. SInce all ldiskfs (ext4) and kernel patches were merged in upstream linux kernel (linux-4.5), once lustre server supprots 4.5 kernel or above, we don't need patched server for project quota anymore. Meantime, ldisfks patches are still backportable for other kernel e.g. SLES12SP2 in the future work.
Also, once zfs supports project id, project quota will be extanable to supoprt osd-zfs.

Yes it appears this is not supported on any SLES systems as well. Project Quota appears to only be supported on RHEL systems with ldiskfs
