Hi,I am trying to understand how the extended attribute trusted.io-stats-dump works.setfattr -n trusted.io-stats-dump -v /tmp/gluster_perf_stats/io-stats-pre.txt /mnt/gluster/gv0_glusterfs I can see that the io-stats-pre.txt is created. But how and what happened in the background?And why I can't I see the attribute with getfattr again?
That is because 'trusted.io-stats-dump' is one of the many Virtual key GlusterFS handles.
As GlusterFS is a filesystem, the way to interact with it is through system calls. GlusterFS has some options for debugging in-built using 'setxattr()' and 'getxattr()' syscall interface, and they are called 'virtual keys'.
