Description Rachana Patel 2014-07-11 13:20:30 UTC
Description of problem:
=======================
try to rename Directories from multiple client at same time. e.g. from one mount give mv <src> <dest> and from another mv <src> <dest1> (where dest and dest1 is not hashing to same) or simply from one mount point mv <src> <dest> and from another mount point mv <src> <dest> .

If they are not done one after another, then due to race after rename is finished :-
- same gfid for different Directories (at same level and/or diffrent level)
- files inside those directories are not listed on mount and sometime even Directory is not listed (so unable to access data)
- sometimes ls output shows question mark in attribute filed.


Version-Release number :
=========================
3.6.0.24-1.el6rhs.x86_64


How reproducible:
=================
Intermittent 


Steps to Reproduce:
====================
1. create and mount distributed volume. (mount on multiple client)
2. create few files and Directories on mount point.
[root@OVM5 race]# mkdir src dest 
[root@OVM5 race]# touch src/f{1..5}

[to reproduce race, we are putting breakpoint at dht_rename_hashed_dir_cbk for both rename operation]

3. from one mount point execute 'mv src dest' and from other mpount point execute 'mv dest src'
Now continue execution from break point from both mount point.

4. verify data from another mount and bricks also

mount:-

[root@OVM5 race]# ls -l 
total 0 
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 69 Jul 10 12:32 src    <---only src present

[root@OVM5 race]# mkdir dest 
mkdir: cannot create directory `dest': File exists    <--------
[root@OVM5 race]# ls -l                              <------- dest is not shown

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  0 Jul 10 12:32 f4 


another mount point:-

bricks :-

[root@OVM5 race]# tree /brick*/race/ 
/brick1/race/ 
├── dest 
│   └── src 
│       ├── f1 
│       ├── f2 
│       └── f5 
└── src 
    └── dest 
/brick2/race/ 
└── src 
    ├── dest 
    │   └── src 
    └── f4 
/brick3/race/ 
├── dest 
└── src 
    ├── dest 
    │   └── src 
    └── f3 

11 directories, 5 files 


Actual results:
===============
- same gfid for different Directories (at same level and/or different level)
- files inside those directories are not listed on mount and sometime even Directory is not listed (so unable to access data)
- sometimes ls output shows question mark in attribute filed.


Expected results:
=================
- no two directory should have same gfid
- if both renames are fail/successful or one succeed and other fail; regardless of all these - all files inside those Directories should be accessible from mount point

bz 1092510 happens while taking snapshots. Though symptoms are similar, this issue has different RCA than bz 1092510

Comment 7 Raghavendra G 2016-04-26 04:03:03 UTC
bz 1118770 is still in post

Comment 11 krishnaram Karthick 2016-05-17 07:03:22 UTC
Two tests were run to verify the fix by having breakpoint (on dht_rename_hashed_dir_cbk) from two mount points

1) 'mv src dst' and mv 'src dst1' --> Passed
2) 'mv src dst' and mv 'dst src' --> Failed

Test-1, second operation fails as expected.

After test-2, from the mountpoint, only 'dst' was listed. However, 'src' was seen under 'dst' from the backend bricks. This will leave the directories in inconsistent state.

Moving the bug back to Assigned.

Comment 14 Milind Changire 2016-05-23 08:26:21 UTC
BZ added to RHEL 6 Errata for RHGS 3.1.3 ... moving to ON_QA

Comment 16 krishnaram Karthick 2016-05-24 06:48:49 UTC
The issue reported in the bug is still seen with build - glusterfs-3.7.9-6

Moving the bug back to assigned. same steps updated in 'steps to reproduce' were used. i.e., with breakpoint on dht_rename_hashed_dir_cbk from two mount points, 'mv src dst' and mv 'dst src' were run.

From mountpoint only dst directory was seen, however from backend dst/src was seen.

Moving the bug back to Assigned.

Comment 17 krishnaram Karthick 2016-05-24 10:01:52 UTC
The issue is not consistently reproducible as it was seen in earlier builds. However, with the same steps, following issue is seen.

steps:
 - mv abcd dcba
 - mv dcba abcd
 - From the mountpoint, only dir 'abcd' is seen. dcba is not seen from the mountpoint

drwxr-xr-x. 3 root root       4096 May 24 13:56 abcd

[root@dhcp46-9 yamaha]# ll abcd/
total 0

 - However, from the backend bricks following directory structure is seen from all the bricks.

[root@dhcp46-103 ~]# ll /bricks/brick0/yamaha/abcd/
total 0
drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 6 May 24 08:24 dcba

 - directory structure seems to be broken

Brick logs shall be uploaded.

Comment 19 Raghavendra G 2016-05-25 04:02:59 UTC
On two of the bricks, gfid handle <brick-export/.glusterfs/fa/38/fa38d55b-edd1-400d-8f25-04d766bd372a was not present (ls said ENOENT). One of those bricks was hashed-subvolume of directory /mnt/glusterfs/abcd/dcba. So, stat sent along with dentry "dcba" from hashed-subvol was invalid (zeroed out). This resulted in readdirp not listing the directory and hence rmdir never came on "dcba". When rm crawled up to parent directory "abcd", rmdir failed with ENOTEMPTY as "dcba" was present on all bricks.

I assume the reason for absence of gfid handle for fa38d55b-edd1-400d-8f25-04d766bd372a was due to a race in handling gfid handles during rename at brick. I confirm the hypothesis once I figure exact sequence of steps that might result in such a loss of handle.

Comment 20 Raghavendra G 2016-05-25 05:23:12 UTC
From one of the bricks on which handle fa38d55b-edd1-400d-8f25-04d766bd372a is missing I could see following error messages:

[2016-05-24 08:26:22.422505] E [MSGID: 113071] [posix.c:2414:posix_rename] 0-yamaha-posix: rename of /bricks/brick0/yamaha/abcd to /bricks/brick0/yamaha/abcd/dcba/abcd failed [Invalid argument]

[2016-05-24 08:26:22.422745] I [MSGID: 115061] [server-rpc-fops.c:1032:server_rename_cbk] 0-yamaha-server: 385: RENAME /abcd (00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000/abcd) -> /abcd/dcba/abcd (00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000/abcd) ==> (Invalid argument) [Invalid argument]

in posix_rename (storage/posix), for rename (src dst) we:

1. unset gfid handle of src.
2. call sys_rename.
3. If failure, unwind

As can be seen when sys_rename fails, gfid handle of src is never recreated. The rename logs above give an indication of sys_rename failure with fa38d55b-edd1-400d-8f25-04d766bd372a as src. So, incomplete failure handling in posix_rename is the root cause of this issue.

Please note that this issue can happen even on single brick non-dht setup. So, I assume we can file a new bug on this (also this is a failure path, unlike this bug which uncovers inconsistencies even in success path).

Comment 22 krishnaram Karthick 2016-05-25 08:19:59 UTC
Moving this bug to verified as the issue in comment#17 turns out to have a different root cause and a different bug has been filed. The actual issue found by this bug is no more seen.
