echo $TEST_STR > $M0/dir1/FILE1



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Modify tests/basic/tier/fop-during-migration.t to use dist-rep tiers
2. run tests/basic/tier/fop-during-migration.t
3.

Analysis:

echo $TEST_STR > $M0/dir1/FILE1

performs an ftruncate operation.

Investigation reveals that when a file is being migrated by the tier layer, the redirection of the ftruncate FOP to the dst subvol fails as posix_ftruncate fails in sys_ftruncate with op_errno EINVAL. This is because the fd being used has flags=0.

AFR calls afr_fix_open() to open the fd on the dst subvol but ends up using flags = 0 (instead of using the required flags). This causes the ftruncate to fail with EINVAL.
