Subject: [PATCH 116/124] cluster/ec: fix fd reopen
e3c68b
e3c68b
Currently EC tries to reopen fd's that have been opened while a brick
e3c68b
was down. This is done as part of regular write operations, just after
e3c68b
having acquired the locks, and it's sent as a sub-fop of the main write
e3c68b
fop.
e3c68b
e3c68b
There were two problems:
e3c68b
e3c68b
1. The reopen was attempted on all UP bricks, even if a previous lock
e3c68b
didn't succeed. This is incorrect because most probably the open will
e3c68b
fail.
e3c68b
e3c68b
2. If reopen is sent and fails, the error is propagated to the main
e3c68b
operation, causing it to fail when it shouldn't.
e3c68b
e3c68b
To fix this, we only attempt reopens on bricks where the current fop
e3c68b
owns a lock, and we prevent any error to be propagated to the main
e3c68b
fop.
e3c68b
e3c68b
To implement this behaviour an argument used to indicate the minimum
e3c68b
number of required answers has overloaded to also include some flags. To
e3c68b
make the change consistent, it has been necessary to rename the
e3c68b
argument, which means that a lot of files have been changed. However
e3c68b
there are no functional changes.
e3c68b
e3c68b
This change has also uncovered a problem in discard code, which didn't
e3c68b
correctely process requests of small sizes because no real discard fop
e3c68b
was being processed, only a write of 0's on some region. In this case
e3c68b
some fields of the fop remained uninitialized or with incorrect values.
e3c68b
To fix this, a new function has been created to simulate success on a
e3c68b
fop and it's used in the discard case.
e3c68b
e3c68b
Thanks to Pranith for providing a test script that has also detected an
e3c68b
issue in this patch. This patch includes a small modification of this
e3c68b
script to force data to be written into bricks before stopping them.
