Doc Text:	.A code assert is added to the Ceph Manager daemon service to detect metadata corruption Previously, a type of snapshot-related metadata corruption would be introduced by the manager daemon service for workloads running Postgres, and possibly others. With this fix, a code assert is added to the manager daemon service which is triggered if a new corruption is detected. This reduces the proliferation of the damage, and allows the collection of logs to ascertain the cause.

Description Patrick Donnelly 2023-03-03 20:22:56 UTC

Description of problem:

This RFE is for a functionality in the MDS to detect specific damage to the metadata "dentries". The damage is associated with a long-standing bug (#38452).

This change will catch the damage before it's persisted. If **new** damage is detected to be written to persistent storage (i.e. RADOS), the MDS will abort to avoid persisting damage. This will hopefully have the benefit of providing logs in the same time period that the damage was created for analysis.

https://tracker.ceph.com/issues/58482

Documentation for support when customers encounter the abort will be forthcoming and available before 6.1 is released.
