[PATCHSET 0/2] pnfs-obj: Important BUG fixing also for @Stable

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

 



Hi Trond

I'm sending in two patches that fixes a bad hung, memory leak, a WARN_ON
and plain wrong protocol handling. In regard to objlayout error handling.
These are also aimed at Stable@ for the 3.2 Kernel.
(Actually these bugs are in since 3.0, I might produce another version
 for 3.[1,0] after these go in)

I have simulated errors at various layers, reads and writes, in combination
of different tests, and they work as I expect. .i.e IO continues to MDS and
oblayout is returned on error.

Please include these patches for 3.3 and they can go to Stable@ for 3.2
has well.

list of patches:
[PATCH 1/2] pnfs-obj: pNFS errors are communicated on iodata->pnfs_error

	This is just a stupidity and neglect. Benny can you understand
	what happened here?

[PATCH 2/2] pnfs-obj: Must return layout on IO error

	This patch is mainly for pnfs.c but I think it is very simple
	and totally not affecting anybody but objlayout. So it should
	be safe, and does fixes my main problem.
	Fred please review?

Please Review

Thanks
Boaz
