I had a co-worker look through this with me (Scott Titus). He has a more analyitcal mind than I do. Here is what he said with some edits by me. My edits were formatting and adjusting some words. So we were hoping that, given this analysis, the community could let us know if it raises any red flags that would lead to a solution to the problem (whether it be setup, settings, or code). If needed, I can get Scott to work with me and dig further but it was starting to get painful where Scott stopped. Scott's words (edited): (all backtraces match - at least up to the point I'm concerned with at this time) Error was passed from afr_inode_refresh_done() into afr_txn_refresh_done() as afr_inode_refresh_done()'s call frame has 'error=0' while afr_txn_refresh_done() has 'err=5' in the call frame. #0 afr_read_txn_refresh_done (frame=0x7ffc949cf7c8, this=0x7fff640137b0, err=5) at afr-read-txn.c:281 #1 0x00007fff68901fdb in afr_txn_refresh_done ( frame=frame at entry=0x7ffc949cf7c8, this=this at entry=0x7fff640137b0, err=5, err at entry=0) at afr-common.c:1223 #2 0x00007fff689022b3 in afr_inode_refresh_done ( frame=frame at entry=0x7ffc949cf7c8, this=this at entry=0x7fff640137b0, error=0) at afr-common.c:1295 #3 0x00007fff6890f3fb in afr_inode_refresh_subvol_cbk (frame=0x7ffc949cf7c8, cookie=<optimized out>, this=0x7fff640137b0, op_ret=<optimized out>, op_errno=<optimized out>, buf=buf at entry=0x7ffd53ffdaa0, xdata=0x7ffd3c6764f8, par=0x7ffd53ffdb40) at afr-common.c:1333 Within afr_inode_refresh_done(), the only two ways it can generate an error within is via setting it to EINVAL or resulting from a failure status from afr_has_quorum(). Since EINVAL is 22, not 5, the quorum test failed. Within the afr_has_quorum() conditional, an error could be set from afr_final_errno() or afr_quorum_errno(). Digging reveals afr_quorum_errno() just returns ENOTCONN which is 107, so that is not it. This leaves us with afr_quorum_errno() returning the error. (Scott provided me with source code with pieces bolded but I don't think you need that). afr_final_errno() iterates through the 'children', looking for valid errors within the replies for the transaction (refresh transaction?). The function returns the highest valued error, which must be EIO (value of 5) in this case. I have not looked into how or what would set the error value in the replies array, as this being a distributed system the error could have been generated on another server. Unless this path needs to be investigated, I'd rather not get mired into finding which iteration (value of 'i') has the error and what system? thread? added the error to the reply unless it is information that is required.
