Hi Dave & Christoph, I run into below error during a pre-production ceph cluster test with xfs backend. Kernel version: CentOS 7.2 3.10.0-327.el7.x86_64 [146702.392840] XFS (nvme9n1p1): xlog_write: reservation summary: trans type = INACTIVE (3) unit res = 83812 bytes current res = -9380 bytes total reg = 0 bytes (o/flow = 0 bytes) ophdrs = 0 (ophdr space = 0 bytes) ophdr + reg = 0 bytes num regions = 0 [146702.428729] XFS (nvme9n1p1): xlog_write: reservation ran out.

[146792.549545] XFS (nvme9n1p1): xfs_log_force: error -5 returned. Each XFS fs is 1.7T. The cluster was written about 80% full then we delete the ceph rbd image, which actually delete a lot of files in the backend xfs. I'm going to have a try below quick hack and see if it helps. diff --git a/fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_trans_resv.c b/fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_trans_resv.c index 1b754cb..b2702f5 100644 --- a/fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_trans_resv.c +++ b/fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_trans_resv.c @@ -800,7 +800,7 @@ xfs_trans_resv_calc( resp->tr_link.tr_logcount = XFS_LINK_LOG_COUNT; resp->tr_link.tr_logflags |= XFS_TRANS_PERM_LOG_RES; - resp->tr_remove.tr_logres = xfs_calc_remove_reservation(mp); + resp->tr_remove.tr_logres = xfs_calc_remove_reservation(mp) * 2; resp->tr_remove.tr_logcount = XFS_REMOVE_LOG_COUNT; resp->tr_remove.tr_logflags |= XFS_TRANS_PERM_LOG_RES; Meanwhile, could you suggest any upstream patch that I can have a try? Any help is appropriated.
