Description Laura Flores 2024-07-24 22:22:49 UTC

Description of problem:

In https://github.com/ceph/ceph/commit/e9921ee76c060122d64e61a2fe483318a49bc0a9 (the introduction of {rm}-pg-upmap-primary, used in the read balancer), new revisions for client-usable data of `OSDMap` (rev 10) and `OSDMap::Incremental` (rev 9) have been introduced. However, corresponding `DECODE_START` in decoders haven't been bumped up.

The net effect is a blur between the schemas when somebody would intentionally (with malformed_input being thrown) want to break compatibility with decoders on those versions (refer to `struct_compat`). I think we make use of this mechanism infrequently.
