Subject: [PATCH 116/124] cluster/ec: fix fd reopen
17b94a
17b94a
Currently EC tries to reopen fd's that have been opened while a brick
17b94a
was down. This is done as part of regular write operations, just after
17b94a
having acquired the locks, and it's sent as a sub-fop of the main write
17b94a
fop.
17b94a
17b94a
There were two problems:
17b94a
17b94a
1. The reopen was attempted on all UP bricks, even if a previous lock
17b94a
didn't succeed. This is incorrect because most probably the open will
17b94a
fail.
17b94a
17b94a
2. If reopen is sent and fails, the error is propagated to the main
17b94a
operation, causing it to fail when it shouldn't.
17b94a
17b94a
To fix this, we only attempt reopens on bricks where the current fop
17b94a
owns a lock, and we prevent any error to be propagated to the main
17b94a
fop.
17b94a
17b94a
To implement this behaviour an argument used to indicate the minimum
17b94a
number of required answers has overloaded to also include some flags. To
17b94a
make the change consistent, it has been necessary to rename the
17b94a
argument, which means that a lot of files have been changed. However
17b94a
there are no functional changes.
17b94a
17b94a
This change has also uncovered a problem in discard code, which didn't
17b94a
correctely process requests of small sizes because no real discard fop
17b94a
was being processed, only a write of 0's on some region. In this case
17b94a
some fields of the fop remained uninitialized or with incorrect values.
17b94a
To fix this, a new function has been created to simulate success on a
17b94a
fop and it's used in the discard case.
17b94a
17b94a
Thanks to Pranith for providing a test script that has also detected an
17b94a
issue in this patch. This patch includes a small modification of this
17b94a
script to force data to be written into bricks before stopping them.
