Subject: [PATCH 116/124] cluster/ec: fix fd reopen
14f8ab
14f8ab
Currently EC tries to reopen fd's that have been opened while a brick
14f8ab
was down. This is done as part of regular write operations, just after
14f8ab
having acquired the locks, and it's sent as a sub-fop of the main write
14f8ab
fop.
14f8ab
14f8ab
There were two problems:
14f8ab
14f8ab
1. The reopen was attempted on all UP bricks, even if a previous lock
14f8ab
didn't succeed. This is incorrect because most probably the open will
14f8ab
fail.
14f8ab
14f8ab
2. If reopen is sent and fails, the error is propagated to the main
14f8ab
operation, causing it to fail when it shouldn't.
14f8ab
14f8ab
To fix this, we only attempt reopens on bricks where the current fop
14f8ab
owns a lock, and we prevent any error to be propagated to the main
14f8ab
fop.
14f8ab
14f8ab
To implement this behaviour an argument used to indicate the minimum
14f8ab
number of required answers has overloaded to also include some flags. To
14f8ab
make the change consistent, it has been necessary to rename the
14f8ab
argument, which means that a lot of files have been changed. However
14f8ab
there are no functional changes.
14f8ab
14f8ab
This change has also uncovered a problem in discard code, which didn't
14f8ab
correctely process requests of small sizes because no real discard fop
14f8ab
was being processed, only a write of 0's on some region. In this case
14f8ab
some fields of the fop remained uninitialized or with incorrect values.
14f8ab
To fix this, a new function has been created to simulate success on a
14f8ab
fop and it's used in the discard case.
14f8ab
14f8ab
Thanks to Pranith for providing a test script that has also detected an
14f8ab
issue in this patch. This patch includes a small modification of this
14f8ab
script to force data to be written into bricks before stopping them.
