Hi Gregory, Thanks for your fast reply. I created https://tracker.ceph.com/issues/56529 and attached the standard logs. In case you need more, please let me know. Note that I added some more buggy behaviour, the vxattr handling seems broken more or less all the way around.

A simple getfattr with a misspelled attribute name sends the MDS cluster into a crash+restart loop.

The problem can be resolved if one executes a "umount -f /mnt/cephfs" on the host where the getfattr was executed. The MDS daemons need a restart. One might also need to clear the OSD blacklist. > > We observe this with a kernel client on 5.18.6-1.el7.elrepo.x86_64 (Centos 7) with mimic and I'm absolutely sure I have not seen this problem with mimic on earlier 5.9.X-kernel versions. > > Is this known to be a kernel client bug? Possibly fixed already? That obviously shouldn't happen. Please file a tracker ticket. There's been a fair bit of churn in how we handle the "vxattrs" so my guess is an incompatibility got introduced between newer clients and the old server implementation, but obviously we want it to work and we especially shouldn't be crashing the MDS. Skimming through it I'm actually not seeing what a client *could* do in that path to crash the server so I'm a bit confused... Oh. I think I see it now, but I'd like to confirm. Yeah, please make that tracker ticket and attach the backtrace you get.
