core: fix memory allocation issues

2019-09-16T02:02:00+00:00

Two problems have been identified that caused that gluster's memory
usage were twice higher than required.

1. An off by 1 error caused that all objects allocated from the memory
   pools were taken from a pool bigger than required. Since each pool
   corresponds to a size equal to a power of two, this was wasting half
   of the available memory.

2. The header information used for accounting on each memory object was
   not taken into consideration when searching for a suitable memory
   pool. It was added later when each individual block was allocated.
   This made this space "invisible" to memory accounting.

Credits: Thanks to Nithya Balachandran for identifying this problem and
         testing this patch.

core/syncop: Bail out if frame creation fails

2019-09-15T13:20:25+00:00

There could be cases (either due to insufficient memory or
corrupted mem-pool) due to which frame creation fails. Bail out
with error in such cases.

ctime: Fix incorrect realtime passed to frame->root->ctime

2019-08-28T05:49:36+00:00

On systems that don't support "timespec_get"(e.g., centos6), it
was using "clock_gettime" with "CLOCK_MONOTONIC" to get unix epoch
time which is incorrect. This patch introduces "timespec_now_realtime"
which uses "clock_gettime" with "CLOCK_REALTIME" which fixes
the issue.

event: rename event_XXX with gf_ prefixed

2019-08-21T06:13:38+00:00

I hit one crash issue when using the libgfapi.

In the libgfapi it will call glfs_poller() --> event_dispatch()
in file api/src/glfs.c:721, and the event_dispatch() is defined
by libgluster locally, the problem is the name of event_dispatch()
is the extremly the same with the one from libevent package form
the OS.

For example, if a executable program Foo, which will also use and
link the libevent and the libgfapi at the same time, I can hit the
crash, like:

kernel: glfs_glfspoll[68486]: segfault at 1c0 ip 00007fef006fd2b8 sp
00007feeeaffce30 error 4 in libevent-2.0.so.5.1.9[7fef006ed000+46000]

The link for Foo is:
lib_foo_LADD = -levent $(GFAPI_LIBS)
It will crash.

This is because the glfs_poller() is calling the event_dispatch() from
the libevent, not the libglsuter.

The gfapi link info :
GFAPI_LIBS = -lacl -lgfapi -lglusterfs -lgfrpc -lgfxdr -luuid

If I link Foo like:
lib_foo_LADD = $(GFAPI_LIBS) -levent
It will works well without any problem.

And if Foo call one private lib, such as handler_glfs.so, and the
handler_glfs.so will link the GFAPI_LIBS directly, while the Foo won't
and it will dlopen(handler_glfs.so), then the crash will be hit everytime.

The link info will be:
foo_LADD = -levent
libhandler_glfs_LIBADD = $(GFAPI_LIBS)

I can avoid the crash temporarily by linking the GFAPI_LIBS in Foo too like:
foo_LADD = $(GFAPI_LIBS) -levent
libhandler_glfs_LIBADD = $(GFAPI_LIBS)

But this is ugly since the Foo won't use any APIs from the GFAPI_LIBS.

And in some cases when the --as-needed link option is added(on many dists
it is added as default), then the crash is back again, the above workaround
won't work.

ctime: Set mdata xattr on legacy files

2019-08-19T11:27:14+00:00

Problem:
The files which were created before ctime enabled would not
have "trusted.glusterfs.mdata"(stores time attributes) xattr.
Upon fops which modifies either ctime or mtime, the xattr
gets created with latest ctime, mtime and atime, which is
incorrect. It should update only the corresponding time
attribute and rest from backend

Solution:
Creating xattr with values from brick is not possible as
each brick of replica set would have different times.
So create the xattr upon successful lookup if the xattr
is not created

Note To Reviewers:
The time attributes used to set xattr is got from successful
lookup. Instead of sending the whole iatt over the wire via
setxattr, a structure called mdata_iatt is sent. The mdata_iatt
contains only time attributes.

glusterd/svc: update pid of mux volumes from the shd process

2019-07-24T10:29:17+00:00

For a normal volume, we are updating the pid from a the
process while we do a daemonization or at the end of the
init if it is no-daemon mode. Along with updating the pid
we also lock the file, to make sure that the process is
running fine.

With brick mux, we were updating the pidfile from gluterd
after an attach/detach request.

There are two problems with this approach.
1) We are not holding a pidlock for any file other than parent
   process.
2) There is a chance for possible race conditions with attach/detach.
   For example, shd start and a volume stop could race. Let's say
   we are starting an shd and it is attached to a volume.
   While we trying to link the pid file to the running process,
   this would have deleted by the thread that doing a volume stop.

multiple files: another attempt to remove includes

2019-06-14T16:50:32+00:00

There are many include statements that are not needed.
A previous more ambitious attempt failed because of *BSD plafrom
(see https://review.gluster.org/#/c/glusterfs/+/21929/ )

Now trying a more conservative reduction.
It does not solve all circular deps that we have, but it
does reduce some of them. There is just too much to handle
reasonably (dht-common.h includes dht-lock.h which includes
dht-common.h ...), but it does reduce the overall number of lines
of include we need to look at in the future to understand and fix
the mess later one.

libglusterfs: cleanup iovec functions

2019-06-11T13:28:07+00:00

This patch cleans some iovec code and creates two additional helper
functions to simplify management of iovec structures.

  iov_range_copy(struct iovec *dst, uint32_t dst_count, uint32_t dst_offset,
                 struct iovec *src, uint32_t src_count, uint32_t src_offset,
                 uint32_t size);

    This function copies up to 'size' bytes from 'src' at offset
    'src_offset' to 'dst' at 'dst_offset'. It returns the number of
    bytes copied.

  iov_skip(struct iovec *iovec, uint32_t count, uint32_t size);

    This function removes the initial 'size' bytes from 'iovec' and
    returns the updated number of iovec vectors remaining.

The signature of iov_subset() has also been modified to make it safer
and easier to use. The new signature is:

  iov_subset(struct iovec *src, int src_count, uint32_t start, uint32_t size,
             struct iovec **dst, int32_t dst_count);

    This function creates a new iovec array containing the subset of the
    'src' vector starting at 'start' with size 'size'. The resulting
    array is allocated if '*dst' is NULL, or copied to '*dst' if it fits
    (based on 'dst_count'). It returns the number of iovec vectors used.

A new set of functions to iterate through an iovec array have been
created. They can be used to simplify the implementation of other
iovec-based helper functions.

features/shard: Fix block-count accounting upon truncate to lower size

2019-06-04T07:30:12+00:00

The way delta_blocks is computed in shard is incorrect, when a file
is truncated to a lower size. The accounting only considers change
in size of the last of the truncated shards.

FIX:

Get the block-count of each shard just before an unlink at posix in
xdata.  Their summation plus the change in size of last shard
(from an actual truncate) is used to compute delta_blocks which is
used in the xattrop for size update.
