Re: ceph fs (meta) data inconsistent

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



We have seen issues like this a few times and they have all been kernel
client bugs with CephFS’ internal “capability” file locking protocol. I’m
not aware of any extant bugs like this in our code base, but kernel patches
can take a long and winding path before they end up on deployed systems.

Most likely, if you were to restart some combination of the client which
wrote the file and the client(s) reading it, the size would propagate
correctly. As long as you’ve synced the data, it’s definitely present in
the cluster.

Adding Xiubo, who has worked on these and may have other comments.
