posix: add a simple health-checker
Goal of this health-checker is to detect fatal issues of the underlying storage that is used for exporting a brick. The current implementation requires the filesystem to detect the storage error, after which it will notify the parent xlators and exit the glusterfsd (brick) process to prevent further troubles. The interval the health-check runs can be configured per volume with the storage.health-check-interval option. The default interval is 30 seconds. It is not trivial to write an automated test-case with the current prove-framework. These are the manual steps that can be done to verify the functionality: - setup a Logical Volume (/dev/bz970960/xfs) and format is as XFS for brick usage - create a volume with the one brick # gluster volume create failing_xfs glufs1:/bricks/failing_xfs/data # gluster volume start failing_xfs - mount the volume and verify the functionality - make the storage fail (use device-mapper, or pull disks) # dmsetup table .. bz970960-xfs: 0 196608 linear 7:0 2048 # echo 0 196608 error > dmsetup-error-target # dmsetup load bz970960-xfs dmsetup-error-target # dmsetup resume bz970960-xfs # dmsetup table ... bz970960-xfs: 0 196608 error - notice the errors caught by syslog: Jun 24 11:31:49 vm130-32 kernel: XFS (dm-2): metadata I/O error: block 0x0 ("xfs_buf_iodone_callbacks") error 5 buf count 512 Jun 24 11:31:49 vm130-32 kernel: XFS (dm-2): I/O Error Detected.
