I don't have the full context here yet, but the short of it is that this particular indices/xattrop directory is managed by a backend translator and driven by replication. It appears to be doing some kind of transaction level tracking based on links. E.g., some quick behavioral observations: - This directory is created and an xattrop-#### file created (no size). - On starting a large sequential write from a client, I start observing a continuous sequence of xfs_link/xfs_remove operations via tracing. - The backend appears to create a link to the xattr-#### file for every replication transaction (handwave) with the name of the link referring to the gfid name of the file under write (but note again the link is not to the inode under write, but this special xattr-#### file). It then apparently removes this link on transaction completion and the process repeats. I suspect this has to do with identifying what files were under modification in the event of a crash before transaction completion, but the underlying pattern/workload is what's more important to us here for the time being... So we're seeing a heavy link related workload on a directory inode (0x83a8a) where the entries are all links to the same inode (0x83a8b). These inodes happen to be close in proximity, which may or may not be a factor. The translator that generates these link/unlink ops sits right above a generic thread pool translator, so this is multi-threaded. What isn't clear to me yet is where the xfs_iunlink() for this heavily linked inode is induced. The primary dentry remains after my file copy test, but then taking another look after a few minutes I see it removed. The same thing occurs if I gracefully restart the volume. I'm going to have to dig into that some more and also see if we can use this to narrow in on a reproducer. I'm thinking something along the lines of: - Create a directory/file. Ideally the directory and file inodes are in the same cluster. - Start a highly-threaded link-unlink workload against that file in the same directory. - Somewhere in the background unlink the main file. - Check for multiple xfs_iunlink() ops, repeat. ... the assumption being that the xfs_iunlink() race could have lead to a possible unlinked list corruption on the associated list, such that a later inactivation/xfs_iunlink_remove of some other inode in that bucket could fail.
