+# If we allow self-heal to happen in the background, we'll get spurious
+# failures - especially at the point labeled "FAIL HERE" but
+# occasionally elsewhere. This behavior is very timing-dependent. It
+# doesn't show up in Jenkins, but it does on JD's and KP's machines, and
+# it got sharply worse because of an unrelated fsync change (6ae6f3d)
+# which changed timing. Putting anything at the FAIL HERE marker tends
+# to make it go away most of the time on affected machines, even if the
+# "anything" is unrelated.
+#
+# What's going on is that the I/O on the first mountpoint is allowed to
+# complete even though self-heal is still in progress and the state on
+# disk does not reflect its result. In fact, the state changes during
+# self-heal create the appearance of split brain when the second I/O
+# comes in, so that fails even though we haven't actually been in split
+# brain since the manual xattr operations. By disallowing background
+# self-heal, we ensure that the second I/O can't happen before self-heal
+# is complete, because it has to follow the first I/O which now has to
+# follow self-heal.
