What is an adminsocket used for? Would librbd use one in normal operation?
Thanks
James

It's a way to send administrative and informational commands directly
to a Ceph entity (usually a daemon, but sometimes a client). Almost
all the ceph entities create one...osd, mon, mds, client. It's not
really "normal" operation, but you can find stats there, and often
things like status, version of the software, etc.

Ok. So if I commented out anything that uses it (just ceph context for perf counters by the looks of it), for the purposes of a win32 build of librbd, it should still be functional.
Thanks
