NFS over RDMA small block DIRECT_IO bug

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello.

# Avi Kivity avi(a)redhat recommended I copy kvm in on this. It would also seem relevent to libvirt. #

I have a Centos 6.2 server and Centos 6.2 client.

[root@store ~]# cat /etc/exports 
/dev/shm				10.149.0.0/16(rw,fsid=1,no_root_squash,insecure)    (I have tried with non tempfs targets also)


[root@node001 ~]# cat /etc/fstab 
store.ibnet:/dev/shm             /mnt                 nfs          rdma,port=2050,defaults 0 0


I wrote a little for loop one liner that dd'd the centos net install image to a file called 'hello' then checksummed that file. Each iteration uses a different block size.

Non DIRECT_IO seems to work fine. DIRECT_IO with 512byte, 1K and 2K block sizes get corrupted.

I want to run my KVM guests on top of NFS over RDMA. My guests cannot create filesystems.

Thanks,

Andrew.
