* Revert "iobuf: Get rid of pre allocated iobuf_pool and use per thread mem pool"Amar Tumballi2019-01-081-4/+46
| | | | | | | | | This reverts commit b87c397091bac6a4a6dec4e45a7671fad4a11770. There seems to be some performance regression with the patch and hence recommended to have it reverted. Updates: #325 Change-Id: Id85d6203173a44fad6cf51d39b3e96f37afcec09
* iobuf: Get rid of pre allocated iobuf_pool and use per thread mem poolPoornima G2018-12-181-46/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current implementation of iobuf_pool has two problems: - prealloc of 12.5MB memory, this limits the scale factor of the gluster processes due to RAM requirements - lock contention, as the current implementation has one global iobuf_pool lock. Credits for debugging and addressing the same goes to Krutika Dhananjay <kdhananj@redhat.com>. Issue: #410 Hence changing the iobuf implementation to use per thread mem pool. This may theoritically appear to cause perf dip as there is no preallocation. But per thread mem pool will not have significant perf impact as the last allocated memory is kept alive for subsequent allocs, for some time. The worst case would be if iobufs requested are of random sizes each time. The best case is, if we get iobuf request of the same size. From the perf tests, this patch did not seem to cause any perf decrease. Note that, with this patch, the rdma performance is going to degrade drastically. In one of the previous patchsets we had fixes to not degrade rdma perf, but rdma is not supported and also not tested [1]. Hence the decision was to not have code in rdma that is not tested and not supported.

* glusterd: add a cli command to trigger a statedump on a clientPoornima G2017-01-231-0/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With this, we will be able to trigger statedumps on remote Gluster clients, mainly targetted for applications using libgfapi. Design: SIGUSR signal is the most comman way of taking a statedump in Gluster. But it cannot be used for libgfapi based processes, as the process loading the library might have already consumed SIGUSR signal. Hence going by the command way. One has to issue a Gluster command to initiate a statedump on the libgfapi based client. The command takes hostname and PID as an argument. All the glusterds in the cluster, check if they are connected to the specified hostname, and send an RPC request to all the connected clients from that hostname (via the mgmt connection).

* inode: Add per xlator ref count for inodePoornima G2017-01-181-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Debugging inode ref leaks is very difficult as there is no info except for the ref count on the inode. Hence this patch is first step towards debugging inode ref leaks. With this patch, in the statedump we get additional info that tells the ref count taken by each xlator on the inode.
