Hi Pranith,
You had a concern of consuming I/O threads when bit-rot uses rchecksum interface to
signing, normal scrubbing and on-demand scrubbing with tiering.
http://review.gluster.org/#/c/13833/5/xlators/storage/posix/src/posix.c
As discussed over comments, the concern is valid and the above patch is not being
taken in and would be abandoned.
I have the following patch where the signing and normal scrubbing would not
consume io-threads. Only the on-demand scrubbing consumes io-threads. I think
this should be fine as tiering is single threaded and only consumes
one I/O thread (as told by Joseph on PatchSet 6).
http://review.gluster.org/#/c/13969/
Since, on-demand scrubbing is disabled by default and there is a size cap and
we document to increase the default number of I/O threads, consuming one I/O
thread for scrubbing would be fine I guess.
Let me know your thoughts.
Thanks and Regards,
Kotresh H R
