            Bug ID: 1158628
           Summary: [FEAT] Add GF_FOP_IPC for inter-translator
                    communication
           Product: GlusterFS
           Version: mainline
         Component: core
          Severity: medium
          Assignee: bugs at gluster.org

>From the proposed patch:

Several features - e.g. encryption, erasure codes, or NSR - involve
multiple cooperating translators which sometimes need a "private" means
of communication amongst themselves.  Historically we've used virtual or
synthetic xattrs, but that's not very elegant and clutters up the
getxattr/setxattr path which must also handle real xattr requests.  This
new fop should address that.
