[Bug 1909162] Please test proposed package

[Chris MacNaughton]

Hello Dan, or anyone else affected,

Accepted ceph into train-proposed. The package will build now and be
available in the Ubuntu Cloud Archive in a few hours, and then in the
-proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. To enable the -proposed
repository:

  sudo add-apt-repository cloud-archive:train-proposed
  sudo apt-get update

Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag
from verification-train-needed to verification-train-done. If it does
not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change
the tag to verification-train-failed. In either case, details of your
testing will help us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in
advance!

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  A recent change (issue#43975 [0]) was made to slow request logging to
  include detail on each operation in the cluster logs. With this
  change, detail for every slow request is always sent to the monitors
  and added to the cluster logs.

  This does not scale. Large, high-throughput clusters can overwhelm
  their monitors with spurious logs in the event of a performance issue.
  Disrupting the monitors can then cause further instability in the
  cluster.

  This SRU reverts the cluster logging of every slow request the osd is
  processing.

  The slow request clog change was added in nautilus (14.2.10) and
  octopus (15.2.0).

  [Test Case]

  Stress the cluster with a benchmarking tool to generate slow requests
  and observe the cluster logs.

  [Where problems could occur]

  The cluster logs contain detailed debug information on slow requests
  that is useful for smaller, low-throughput clusters. While these logs
  are not used by ceph, they may be used by the cluster administrators
  (for monitoring or alerts). Changing this logging behavior may be
  unexpected.

  [Other Info]

  The intent is to re-enable this feature behind a configurable setting,
  but the solution must be discussed upstream.

  The same slow request detail can be enabled for each osd by raising
  the "debug osd" log level to 20.
