OpenStack Shared File Systems Service (Manila)

CephFS driver NFS support

Registered by Ramana Raja

Allow CephFS driver to serve NFS shares using a gateway Ganesha server connected to CephFS storage. The driver would manipulate the exports of the Ganesha server using manila's Ganesha library (which needs to be refactored to dynamically update exports of a Ganesha server) to allow/deny access to client IPs. The networking should be setup such that the manila-share-service/driver and the manila tenant are able to reach the Ganesha server.

                                                         Config plane
            CephFS/Ganesha driver ------------------> Ganesha server -------> CephFS

                                                        Data plane
                             Manila tenant ------------------> Ganesha server ------------> CephFS

The CephFS driver with NFS protocol support would have IP based access control.
