Description of problem: This is a follow up patch for http://review.gluster.org/#/c/10080 In the above, the suggested change in http://review.gluster.org/#/c/10080/7/xlators/cluster/dht/src/dht-rebalance.c doesnot work. The reason it doesnt work is promotion and demotion are done in a multithread way. Whenever a promotion or demotion thread is called, the frame of the old sync_op thread is not carried with it. As a result the frame->root->pid is not set. Solution: When the file is getting migrated, we get a tiering.migration key_value in the xattr dict, so that we pass this dic key-value when we do syncop_setxattr() to do data migration and set the frame->root->pid GF_CLIENT_PID_TIER_DEFRAG in dht_setxattr() just before calling dht_start_rebalance_task(). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
