Description Ravishankar N 2017-07-21 10:51:49 UTC

Description of problem:

It was found that when I/O was going on in a  rep 2 volume and an add-brick was done to convert it to rep-3, mkdir failed on the newly added brick because the parent dir on that brick did not contain dht layout xattr due to which posix failed the mkdir (see BZ 1470599 if you have view permissions).

So fuse guarantees that a lookup (named OR gfid lookup) is issued before the mkdir. In afr, metadata heals (which heal the xattrs including dht xattrs) happen only as a part of named lookups. Fix it to include gfid lookups as well.

Note that named lookups can do name heals (if entry doesn't exist on the 3rd brick), gfid lookups can't do that. The most we can do is perform metadata heals if the entry is already present in the brick.

    afr: heal metadata in discover code path
    
    During graph switch, if fuse sends nameless (gfid) lookups, afr takes
    the discover code path to serve it. If there are pending metadata heals,
    they do not happen unless an inode refresh happens as a part of
    discover (which is not guaranteed to happen always).
    
    This patch fixes it by attempting metadata heal as a part of discover,
    just like how it is done in lookup code path.
    
    Also removed creating superfluous  heal frames when launching heal.
