Problem: When name-self-heal is triggered on the mount, it blocks lookup until name-self-heal completes. But that can lead to hangs when lot of clients are accessing a directory which needs name heal and all of them trigger heals waiting for other clients to complete heal. Fix: When a name-heal is needed but quorum number of names have the file and pending xattrs exist on the parent, then better to delegate the heal to SHD which will be completed as part of entry-heal of the parent directory. We could also do the same for quorum-number of names not present but we don't have any known use-case where this is a frequent occurrence so not changing that part at the moment. When there is a gfid mismatch or missing gfid it is important to complete the heal so that next rename doesn't assume everything is fine and perform a rename etc fixes bz#1625575 Change-Id: I8b002c85dffc6eb6f2833e742684a233daefeb2c Signed-off-by: Pranith Kumar K <pkarampu@redhat.com>
Problem: When metadata-self-heal is triggered on the mount, it blocks lookup until metadata-self-heal completes. But that can lead to hangs when lot of clients are accessing a directory which needs metadata heal and all of them trigger heals waiting for other clients to complete heal. Fix: Only when the heal is needed but the pending xattrs are not set, trigger metadata heal that could block lookup. This is the only case where different clients may give different metadata to the clients without heals, which should be avoided.

We are not seeing much improvement with this change. So removing the feature so that it doesn't need to be maintained anymore. Fixes: #414 Change-Id: Ic7969b151544daf2547bd262a9fa03f575626411 Signed-off-by: Pranith Kumar K <pkarampu@redhat.com>
This uses 'timeout' command with 300 seconds default. Right now, there is just 1 test which takes more than that in a properly setup machine. Ideally best case is set the default to something like 30 seconds, and if a test is supposed to take more than that, owner should add a timeout line to test knowingly. That way, it makes test writers think about a time limit too. Change-Id: I747005ce1f208aeb2ecbf899e8feea487ecd21a0 Signed-off-by: Amar Tumballi <amarts@redhat.com>
Problem: We currently don't have a roll-back/undoing of post-ops if quorum is not met. Though the FOP is still unwound with failure, the xattrs remain on the disk. Due to these partial post-ops and partial heals (healing only when 2 bricks are up), we can end up in split-brain purely from the afr xattrs point of view i.e each brick is blamed by atleast one of the others. These scenarios are hit when there is frequent connect/disconnect of the client/shd to the bricks while I/O or heal are in progress. Fix: Instead of undoing the post-op, pick a source based on the xattr values. If 2 bricks blame one, the blamed one must be treated as sink. If there is no majority, all are sources. Once we pick a source, self-heal will then do the heal instead of erroring out due to split-brain.

Problem: In an arbiter volume, lookup was being served from one of the sink bricks (source brick was down). shard uses the iatt values from lookup cbk to calculate the size and block count, which in this case were incorrect values. shard_local_t->last_block was thus initialised to -1, resulting in an infinite while loop in shard_common_resolve_shards(). Fix: Use client quorum logic to allow or fail the lookups from afr if there are no readable subvolumes. So in replica-3 or arbiter vols, if there is no good copy or if quorum is not met, fail lookup with ENOTCONN. With this fix, we are also removing support for quorum-reads xlator option. So if quorum is not met, neither read nor write txns are allowed and we fail the fop with ENOTCONN.
