Hi Ceph,

Yesterday I implemented a simple erasure code plugin that can sustain the loss 
of a single chunk.

https://github.com/dachary/ceph/blob/wip-5878/src/osd/ErasureCodeExample.h

and it works as shown in the unit test

https://github.com/dachary/ceph/blob/wip-5878/src/test/osd/TestErasureCodeExample.cc

It would be of limited use in a production environment because it only saves 
25% space ( M=2 K=1 ) over a 2 replica pool, but it would work.

I would very much appreciate a review of the erasure code plugin system and the 
associated example plugin :

https://github.com/ceph/ceph/pull/515

When it's good enough, creating a jerasure plugin will be next :-)

Cheers
