Hi Jim, It turns out Henry's problem was actually cause by a bad fix on my part, d91f2438 in ceph-client.git. (Unfortunately that made it into 2.6.36!) Reverting that commit fixed things for him. I pushed that revert to the ceph-client.git master branch, or you can revert it yourself. master also includes everything that's been merged for 2.6.37-rc1, so you may want to revert it yourself and keep the 2.6.36 stuff. In any case, please let us know if it fixes your problem. In the meantime, I'll try to figure out what it was I thought I was fixing in the first place! :( sage On Tue, 26 Oct 2010, Jim Schutt wrote: > > Hi, > > On Tue, 2010-10-26 at 13:25 -0600, Sage Weil wrote: > > On Tue, 26 Oct 2010, Jim Schutt wrote: > > > Hi, > > > > > > I'm testing a file system with 10 osd daemons, > > > 1 mds daemon, 1 mon daemon. > > > > > > Client code is 2.6.36 + current for-linus branch > > > Server code is unstable branch, 2a3e73bb325f. > > > > > > After mounting 64 clients, I had each write its own 512 MiB > > > file with dd, with all files being created in the same directory. > > > > > > A few seconds after they completed, from another client (not one > > > of the 64 writers) I did "ls -l" on the directory holding the > > > new files. > > > > > > After several minutes, it still hasn't returned; > > > all the daemons are still running. > > > > This looks just like a client bug I'm tracking down with Henry Chang. > > I'll try again to reproduce it in my environment (as that should speed > > up > > the debugging process anyway!). > > Cool!
