Subject: crush: fix off-by-one errors in total_tries refactor
From: Ilya Dryomov <ilya.dryomov@xxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 48a163dbb517eba13643bf404a0d695c1ab0a60d upstream.
Back in 27f4d1f6bc32c2ed7b2c5080cbd58b14df622607 we refactored the CRUSH
code to allow adjustment of the retry counts on a per-pool basis. That
commit had an off-by-one bug: the previous "tries" counter was a *retry*
count, not a *try* count, but the new code was passing in 1 meaning
there should be no retries.
Fix the ftotal vs tries comparison to use < instead of <= to fix the
problem. Note that the original code used <= here, which means the
global "choose_total_tries" tunable is actually counting retries.
Compensate for that by adding 1 in crush_do_rule when we pull the tunable
into the local variable.
This was noticed looking at output from a user provided osdmap.
Unfortunately the map doesn't illustrate the change in mapping behavior
and I haven't managed to construct one yet that does. Inspection of the
crush debug output now aligns with prior versions, though.
Reflects ceph.git commit 795704fd615f0b008dcc81aa088a859b2d075138.
