Similar flags will be added at the blobstore level in a future
patch.
This allows backwards compatibility - i.e. allow older blobstore
applications to open blobstores created by newer blobstore
applications with new features. Any blob's using a new feature
should have an associated flag set in one of three new flag masks:
- invalid: if a bit is set in this mask that the application is not
aware of, do not allow the blob to be opened
- data_ro: if a bit is set in this mask that the application is not
aware of, allow the blob to be opened, but do not allow
write I/O nor any operation that changes metadata
- md_ro: if a bit is set in this mask that the application is not
aware of, allow the blob to be opened for performing any
kind of I/O, but do not allow any operation that changes
metadata
While here, bump SPDK_BS_VERSION to 3. We intend this to be the
last change made to SPDK_BS_VERSION - future versioning will be
done via blobstore or per-blob feature flags instead.
