fstat problems when killing with stat prefetch turned on

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

 



Hello,

I tried reproducing the problem that Mateusz Slupny was experiencing before (stat returning bad st_size value on self-healing) on my own computer with only 3 bricks (one being an arbiter) on 3.10.0. The result with such a small setup was that the bug appeared both on killing and during the self-healing process, but only rarely (once in hundreds of tries) and only with performance.stat-prefetch turned on. This might be a completely different issue as on the setup Matt was using, he could reproduce it with the mentioned option being off, it always happened but only during recovery, not after killing. I did submit a bug report about this: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1444892.

The problem is as Matt wrote is that this causes data corruption if one is to use the returned size on writing. Could I get some pointers as to what parts of the gluster code I should be looking at to figure out what the problem might be?

Thanks in advance,
Miklós
