Hi all We mounted cephfs with ceph-fuse on two machines. We found that if a process writing a log on node A, while "tail -f" it on node B will quite slow, The mds server also complain like: > 2018-07-09 15:10:35.516602 7f32fa0c2700 0 log_channel(cluster) log [WRN] : 2 slow requests, 1 included below; oldest blocked for > 8.421551 secs > 2018-07-09 15:10:35.516608 7f32fa0c2700 0 log_channel(cluster) log [WRN] : slow request 5.866578 seconds old, received at 2018-07-09 15:10:29.649997: client_request(client.3777088:24818 getattr pAsLsXsFs #1000008a41e 2018-07-09 15:10:03.842337) currently failed to rdlock, waiting > 2018-07-09 15:10:48.517367 7f32fa0c2700 0 log_channel(cluster) log [WRN] : 2 slow requests, 2 included below; oldest blocked for > 5.860196 secs > 2018-07-09 15:10:48.517373 7f32fa0c2700 0 log_channel(cluster) log [WRN] : slow request 5.860196 seconds old, received at 2018-07-09 15:10:42.657139: client_request(client.3777088:24826 getattr pAsLsXsFs #1000008a41e 2018-07-09 15:10:16.843077) currently failed to rdlock, waiting > 2018-07-09 15:10:48.517375 7f32fa0c2700 0 log_channel(cluster) log [WRN] : slow request 5.622276 seconds old, received at 2018-07-09 15:10:42.895059: client_request(client.3775872:34689 lookup #10000011127/choury-test 2018-07-09 15:10:42.894941) currently failed to rdlock, waiting > 2018-07-09 15:10:51.517530 7f32fa0c2700 0 log_channel(cluster) log [WRN] : 2 slow requests, 1 included below; oldest blocked for > 8.622448 secs > 2018-07-09 15:10:51.517536 7f32fa0c2700 0 log_channel(cluster) log [WRN] : slow request 5.399846 seconds old, received at 2018-07-09 15:10:46.117661: client_request(client.3775872:34690 lookup #10000011127/choury-test 2018-07-09 15:10:46.117586) currently failed to rdlock, waiting > 2018-07-09 15:10:53.517640 7f32fa0c2700 0 log_channel(cluster) log [WRN] : 2 slow requests, 1 included below; oldest blocked for > 10.622560 secs > 2018-07-09 15:10:53.517646 7f32fa0c2700 0 log_channel(cluster) log [WRN] : slow request 10.622560 seconds old, received at 2018-07-09 15:10:42.895059: client_request(client.3775872:34689 lookup #10000011127/choury-test 2018-07-09 15:10:42.894941) currently failed to rdlock, waiting > 2018-07-09 15:10:56.517819 7f32fa0c2700 0 log_channel(cluster) log [WRN] : 1 slow requests, 1 included below; oldest blocked for > 10.400132 secs > 2018-07-09 15:10:56.517826 7f32fa0c2700 0 log_channel(cluster) log [WRN] : slow request 10.400132 seconds old, received at 2018-07-09 15:10:46.117661: client_request(client.3775872:34690 lookup #10000011127/choury-test 2018-07-09 15:10:46.117586) currently failed to rdlock, waiting We reproduced this problem in the test cluster. there's only two processed(on two machines) access the cluster, the writer, and tail. The test writer code: > #include <stdio.h> > #include <string.h> > #include <stdlib.h> > #include <unistd.h> > > const char *s = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789"; > int main(int argc, char** argv){ > FILE *f=fopen(argv[1],"ab+"); > if(f==NULL){ > printf("cant'to open destination file\n"); > return 0; > } > int line = 0; > while(true){ > char buff[1024]={0}; > for(int i = 0; i< 200; i++){ > buff[i] = s[rand()%62]; > } > fprintf(f, "%d: %s\n", line++, buff); > fflush(f); > sleep(30); > } > fclose(f); > return 0; > } The version of ceph is 10.2.10. How can I reduce the latency and slow requests? _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list ceph-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-users-ceph.com
