Hi,All.
I confirm the problem. When min_read_recency_for_promote> 1 data failure.

That seems reasonable. Was switching from writeback -> forward always
part of the sequence that resulted in corruption? Not that there is a
known ordering issue when switching to forward mode. I wouldn't really
expect it to bite real users but it's possible..

I've opened a ticket to track this:
http://tracker.ceph.com/issues/15171
What would be *really* great is if you could reproduce this with a
ceph_test_rados workload (from ceph-tests). I.e., get ceph_test_rados
running, and then find the sequence of operations that are sufficient to
trigger a failure.
