At your earliest convenience, please verify the patch using v4.8.y
with
the above ABORT_TASK + shutdown scenario.
Also, it would be helpful to understand why this ESX FC host is
generating ABORT_TASKs.
Eg: Is ABORT_TASK generated due to FC target response packet loss..?
Or due to target backend I/O latency, that ultimately triggers FC host
side timeouts...?
Ok, so the specific hung task warnings reported earlier above are
ABORT_TASK due to the target-core backend md array holding onto
outstanding I/O long enough, for ESX host side SCSI timeouts to begin to
trigger.
+ when I disable the ports on the brocade switch that we're using
then
try to stop target, the following is printed:

Mmmm. Could be a side effect of the target-core regression, but not
completely sure..

Hey Nicholas,
At your earliest convenience, please verify the patch using v4.8.y
with
the above ABORT_TASK + shutdown scenario.
Also, it would be helpful to understand why this ESX FC host is
generating ABORT_TASKs.
Eg: Is ABORT_TASK generated due to FC target response packet loss..?
Or due to target backend I/O latency, that ultimately triggers FC host
side timeouts...?
Here is where it gets interesting and to your thought above. Take for
example this log snippet

And compare it to the following snippet
(http://microdevsys.com/linux-lio/iostat-tkx-interesting-bit.txt) taken
from this bigger iostat session
(http://microdevsys.com/linux-lio/iostat-tkx.txt):
<SNIP>
We can see that /dev/sdf ramps up to 100% starting at around
(10/23/2016
10:18:18 PM) and stays that way till about the (10/23/2016 10:18:42 PM)
mark when something occurs and it drops down to below 100% numbers.
So I checked the array which shows all clean, even across reboots:
[root@mbpc-pc ~]# cat /proc/mdstat
Personalities : [raid6] [raid5] [raid4]
md0 : active raid6 sdb[7] sdf[6] sdd[3] sda[5] sdc[1] sde[8]

[UUUUUU]
bitmap: 1/8 pages [4KB], 65536KB chunk
unused devices: <none>
[root@mbpc-pc ~]#
Then I run smartctl across all disks and sure enough /dev/sdf prints
this:
[root@mbpc-pc ~]# smartctl -A /dev/sdf
smartctl 5.43 2012-06-30 r3573 [x86_64-linux-4.8.4] (local build)

So it would appear we found the root cause, a bad disk. True the disk
is bad and I'll be replacing it however, even with a degraded disk
(checking now) the array functions just fine and I have no data
loss. I
only lost 1. I would have to loose 3 to get a catastrophic failure on
this RAID6:

[root@mbpc-pc ~]#
Last night I cut power to the /dev/sdf disk to spin it down the removed
it and reinserted it. The array resynced without issue however the
smartctl -A command still failed on it. Today I check and bad blocks
were recorded on the disk and the array has since removed /dev/sdf (per
above). Also I have to say that these ESXi hosts worked in this
configuration, without any hickup, for about 4 months. No LUN failure
on the ESXi side. I haven't changed the LUN in that time (had no
reason
to do so).
So now here's the real question that I have. Why would the array
continue to function, as intended, with only one disk failure yet the
QLogic / Target drivers stop and error out? The RAID6 (software) array
should care about the failure, and it should handle it. QLogic /
Target
Drivers shouldn't really be too impacted (aside from read speed maybe)
about a disk failing inside the array. That would be my thinking. The
Target / QLogic software seems to have picked up on a failure ahead of
the software RAID 6 detecting it. I've had this RAID6 for over 6 years
now. Aside from the occassional disk replacement, quite rock solid.
The earlier hung task warnings after ABORT_TASK w/ TMR_FUNCTION_COMPLETE
and after explicit configfs shutdown are likely the missing SCF_ACK_KREF
bit assignment. Note the bug is specific to high backed I/O latency
with v4.1+ code, so you'll want to include it for all future builds.
AFAICT thus far the list corruption bug reported here and also from Anil
& Co looks like a separate bug using tcm_qla2xxx ports.
So anyway, I added the fix you pointed out to the 4.8.4 kernel and
recompiled. I restarted it, with the RAID6 degraded as it is. All
mounted fine and I checked the LUN's from the ESXi side:

And still after 30 minutes, there is no failure. This run includes the
fix you asked me to ass
(https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/527268df31e57cf2b6d417198717c6d6afdb1e3e)
. If everything works, I will revert the patch and see if I can
reproduce the issue. If I can reproduce it, then the disk might not
have been it, but the patch was. I'll keep you posted on that when I
get a new disk tomorrow.
Right now this is a POC setup so I have lots of room to experiment.
Hey Nicholas,
I've done some testing up till now. With or without the patch above, as
long as the faulty disk is removed from the RAID 6 software array,
everything works fine with the Target Driver and ESXi hosts.
Thanks again for the extra debug + feedback, and confirming the earlier
hung task warnings with md disk failure.
This is
even on a degraded array:
[root@mbpc-pc ~]# cat /proc/mdstat
Personalities : [raid6] [raid5] [raid4]
md0 : active raid6 sdc[1] sda[5] sdd[3] sde[8] sdb[7]
3907045632 blocks super 1.2 level 6, 64k chunk, algorithm 2 [6/5]
[UUUU_U]
bitmap: 6/8 pages [24KB], 65536KB chunk
unused devices: <none>
[root@mbpc-pc ~]#
So at the moment, the data points to the single failed single disk (
/dev/sdf ) as causing the Target Drivers or QLogic cards to throw an
exception.
Tomorrow I will insert the failed disk back in to see if the a) array
takes it back, b) it causes a failure with the patch applied.
Looks like the failed disk /dev/sdf was limping along for months and
until I removed the power, it didn't collapse on itself.
AFAICT, the list corruption observed is a separate bug from the hung
tasks during ABORT_TASK w/ TMR_COMPLETE_FUNCTION with explicit target
shutdown.
Correct, I will be including the fix either way but will take some time
to test out if I can reproduce the failure by reinserting this bad disk
then a new disk. I want to see if this hang will be reproduced by doing
these actions to the RAID6 Software Raid to determine if this failure is
isolated to a particularly bad disk or any sort of add or remove disk
actions in a RAID6.
1) As soon as I re-add the bad disk without the patch, I loose the LUN
off the ESXi hosts. Same thing happens with the patch. No change. The
disk is pulling things down. Worse, the kernel panics and locks me out
of the system (http://microdevsys.com/linux-lio/messages-oct-27-2016.txt) :

2) This works with a new disk that's just been inserted. No issues.
The kernel had the patch in both scenarios. So appears we can't
function on a degraded array that looses 1 (RAID 5 / 6 ) or 2 ( RAID 6 )
disks, at the moment, even though the array itself is fine. Perhaps
it's the nature of the failed disk.
