I've made some dirty hack of xlators/features/posix-locks/src/posix-locks.c: --- posix-locks.c.orig 2008-04-11 07:59:29.000000000 +0300 +++ posix-locks.c 2008-10-15 05:46:31.000000000 +0300 @@ -461,10 +461,12 @@ int posix_setlk (pl_inode_t *inode, posix_lock_t *lock, int can_block) { errno = 0; + printf ("posix_setlk: inode=%p\n", inode); + if (lock_grantable (inode, lock)) { insert_and_merge (inode, lock); } else if (can_block) { #ifdef _POSIX_LOCKS_DEBUG Next, I ran glusterfs by the following command: # glusterfs -f /etc/glusterfs/glfs.vol -n ra -N /mnt/shared And found that posix-locks module receive different inode structure for locking the same file from different nodes: posix_setlk: inode=0x9a084f0 posix_setlk: inode=0x9a07420 In glusterfsd/glusterfs configuration (via loopback interface) function posix_setlk always receive the same inode structure for locking one file from any node.
