From: Xiubo Li <xiubli@xxxxxxxxxx> This reverts commit f7a67b463fb83a4b9b11ceaa8ec4950b8fb7f902. We have identified an issue in the MDS affecting CephFS users using the kernel driver. The issue was first introduced in the octopus release that added support for clients to perform asynchronous directory operations using the `nowsync` mount option. The issue presents itself as an MDS crash resembling (any of) the following crashes: https://tracker.ceph.com/issues/61009 https://tracker.ceph.com/issues/58489 There is no apparent data loss or corruption, but since the underlying cause is related to an (operation) ordering issue, the extent of the problem could surface in other forms - most likely MDS crashes involving preallocated inodes. The fix is being reviewed and is being worked on priority: https://github.com/ceph/ceph/pull/53752 As a workaround, we recommend (kernel) clients be remounted with the `wsync` mount option which disables asynchronous directory operations (depending on the kernel version being used, the default could be `nowsync`). This change reverts the default, so, async dirops is disabled (by default).
