Hi,

 

Please see detail test step on https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1531457

 

How reproducible:

 

 

Steps to Reproduce:

1.create a volume name "test" with replicated

2.set volume option cluster.consistent-metadata with on: 

  gluster v set test cluster.consistent-metadata on

3. mount volume test on client on /mnt/test

4. create a file aaa size more than 1 byte

   echo "1234567890" >/mnt/test/aaa

5. shutdown a replicat node, let's say sn-1, only let sn-0 worked

6. cp /mnt/test/aaa /mnt/test/bbb; link /mnt/test/bbb /mnt/test/ccc

 

 

BRs

George

Hi,

It is fuse, within mountpoint by mount -t glusterfs  …“ command.

 

Could you let me know the test you did so that I can try to re-create and see what exactly is going on?

Configuration of the volume and the steps to re-create the issue you are seeing would be helpful in debugging the issue further.

 

 

Thanks & Best Regards,

George

Hi, Pranith Kumar,

 

I has create a bug on Bugzilla https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1531457

After my investigation for this link issue, I suppose your changes on afr-dir-write.c with issue " Don't let NFS cache stat after writes" , your fix is like:

--------------------------------------

       if (afr_txn_nothing_failed (frame, this)) {

                        /*if it did pre-op, it will do post-op changing ctime*/

                        if (priv->consistent_metadata &&

                            afr_needs_changelog_update (local))

                                afr_zero_fill_stat (local);

                        local->transaction.unwind (frame, this);

                }

In the above fix, it set the ia_nlink to 0 if option consistent-metadata is set to on.

And hard link a file with which just created will lead to an error, and the error is caused in kernel function vfs_link:

if (inode->i_nlink == 0 && !(inode->i_state & I_LINKABLE))

             error =  -ENOENT;

 

could you please have a check and give some comments here?

 

When stat is "zero filled", understanding is that the higher layer protocol doesn't send stat value to the kernel and a separate lookup is sent by the kernel to get the latest stat value. In which protocol are you seeing this issue? Fuse/NFS/SMB?

 

 

Thanks & Best Regards,

George
