-Small write strategies
-----------------------
-
-* *U*: Uncompressed write of a complete, new blob.
-
- - write to new blob
- - kv commit
-
-* *P*: Uncompressed partial write to unused region of an existing
- blob.
-
- - write to unused chunk(s) of existing blob
- - kv commit
-
-* *W*: WAL overwrite: commit intent to overwrite, then overwrite
- async. Must be chunk_size = MAX(block_size, csum_block_size)
- aligned.
-
- - kv commit
- - wal overwrite (chunk-aligned) of existing blob
-
-* *N*: Uncompressed partial write to a new blob. Initially sparsely
- utilized. Future writes will either be *P* or *W*.
-
- - write into a new (sparse) blob
- - kv commit
-
-* *R+W*: Read partial chunk, then to WAL overwrite.
-
- - read (out to chunk boundaries)
- - kv commit
- - wal overwrite (chunk-aligned) of existing blob
-
-* *C*: Compress data, write to new blob.
-
- - compress and write to new blob
- - kv commit
-
-Possible future modes
----------------------
-
-* *F*: Fragment lextent space by writing small piece of data into a
- piecemeal blob (that collects random, noncontiguous bits of data we
- need to write).
-
- - write to a piecemeal blob (min_alloc_size or larger, but we use just one block of it)
- - kv commit
-
-* *X*: WAL read/modify/write on a single block (like legacy
- bluestore). No checksum.
-
- - kv commit
- - wal read/modify/write
-
-Mapping
--------
-
-This very roughly maps the type of write onto what we do when we
-encounter a given blob. In practice it's a bit more complicated since there
-might be several blobs to consider (e.g., we might be able to *W* into one or
-*P* into another), but it should communicate a rough idea of strategy.
