Public bug reported:

[Impact]

Attempting to map an rbd image using the 4.4 LTS (Xenial) kernel client
from a Jewel or Luminous Ceph cluster with optimal tunables fails due to
feature set mismatch.

The Jewel release of Ceph introduced a new set of CRUSH tunables. These
tunables were first introduced in the 4.5 Linux kernel and are thus not
available in the 16.04 LTS 4.4 Linux Kernel. Attempting to map RBD
images as block devices will fail due to not being able to understand
these new tunables:

Oct 30 21:19:05 ceph-7 kernel: [  815.692897] libceph: mon0 10.5.0.19:6789 
missing required protocol features

Support for the new CRUSH tunables were added in upstream kernel 4.5 in
http://www.spinics.net/lists/ceph-devel/msg28421.html.

[Test Case]

1. Deploy a Jewel or Luminous Ceph cluster.
2. Create rbd image suitable for the kernel client:
  $ rbd create --pool rbd --image-feature layering --size 1G test
3. Map the rbd image to the local server:
  $ rbd map --pool rbd test

[Regression Potential]

Minimal. Code is limited to kernel rbd driver and new code should
primarily affect clients connecting to clusters with the new tunables
options.

[Additional Info]

A workaround is to change the crush tunables configured for the Ceph
cluster to a legacy version (hammer or lower) via:

$ ceph osd crush tunables hammer

However, changing the tunables to hammer fails to allow the cluster to
take advantage of newer placement strategies which reduces the amount of
data movement throughout the cluster.
