    gfapi: Use inode_forget in case of handle objects
    
    Currently with gfapi, even if applications release their
    reference on paritular inode entries, those entries never
    get destroyed as they shall always have positive nlookup
    count unless inode_table exceeds lru limit.
    
    Since inodes and their contexts can consume considerable
    amount of memory, applications may end up consuming lot of
    memory and may even get OOM killed.
    
    To avoid that, have considered below approaches (for handle based access)-
    a) Do 'inode_lookup' only if the corresponding inode is created
    for the first time and forget it during close of the handle
    
    This shall not work as multiple handle objects can refer to
    same inode entry and inode_forget from second handle object
    onwards shall result in assert.
    
    b) Do 'inode_lookup' during a handle or fd creation
    
    But this approach shall affect the performance of the fops which
    operate on neither handle nor fd.
    
    c) current approach taken-
    Applications using glfs handle objects hold a reference
    on corresponding inode entries. Hence it is safe to forget
    those inodes and make nlookup count to '0' while trying to
    delete those handle objects. That way the last unref (i.e,
    from the last handle close) shall result in inode_destroy().

    rpc: Fix for rpc_transport_t leak
    
    The transport object needs to get unref'ed when the rpc clnt
    object is getting destroyed. But currently in rpc_clnt_disable()
    we set conn->trans to NULL before it gets unref'ed leading to
    transport object leak.
    
    This change is to fix it by setting conn-tran to NULL only when
    it is being unref'ed.

    inode: Retire the inodes from the lru list in inode_table_destroy
    
    Inodes from the lru list are not moved to purge list unless they
    are retired. Also process the lru list first to unset their parent
    as we need to unset their dentry entries (the ones which may not be
    unset during '__inode_passivate' as they were hashed) which in turn
    shall unref their parent inodes which could be in active list.
    
    These parent inodes when unref'ed may well again fall into lru list
    and if we are at the end of traversing the list, we may miss to
    delete/retire that entry. Hence traverse the lru list till it
    gets empty.

    rpc: Connect back only if rpc is not disabled
    
    This is to fix regression caused by below patch -
    http://review.gluster.org/#/c/13456/
    
    As discussed over http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.file-systems.gluster.devel/14284,
    patch #13456 caused a regression where in if there are any pending
    rpc invocations, we end up accessing freed object. This patch
    fixes it by allowing reconnect during rpc submit only if rpc
    is not disabled.

Comment 24 Niels de Vos 2016-06-16 13:53:22 UTC
This bug is getting closed because a release has been made available that should address the reported issue. In case the problem is still not fixed with glusterfs-3.8.0, please open a new bug report.

glusterfs-3.8.0 has been announced on the Gluster mailinglists [1], packages for several distributions should become available in the near future. Keep an eye on the Gluster Users mailinglist [2] and the update infrastructure for your distribution.
