Description Ravishankar N 2018-10-10 12:56:37 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1637802 +++

Description of problem:
commit eb472d82a083883335bc494b87ea175ac43471ff in master introduced a bug where a data-self-heal on a file in arbiter leaves a stale inodelk behind on the bricks. Thus any new write to the file from a client can hang

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create 1x (2+1) arbiter, fuse mount it and create a file
2. Kill arbiter brick, write to the file, bring back arbiter and let self-heal complete.
3. Next write to the file from mount will hang because the inodelk gets blocked because of the previous stale locks left behind from self-heal

COMMIT: https://review.gluster.org/21386 committed in release-3.12 by "jiffin tony Thottan" <jthottan> with a commit message- afr: prevent winding inodelks twice for arbiter volumes

Backport of https://review.gluster.org/#/c/glusterfs/+/21380/

Problem:
In an arbiter volume, if there is a pending data heal of a file only on
arbiter brick, self-heal takes inodelks twice due to a code-bug but unlocks
it only once, leaving behind a stale lock on the brick. This causes
the next write to the file to hang.

Fix:
Fix the code-bug to take lock only once. This bug was introduced master
with commit eb472d82a083883335bc494b87ea175ac43471ff

Thanks to  Pranith Kumar K <pkarampu> for finding the RCA.
