Fixed In Version: glusterfs-3.7.9-1
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Previously, if a user set an option where the number of characters in the key/value pair was greater than the value of PATH_MAX (4096), a restriction in the fgets operation meant that tokenizing the option failed. This meant that when users attempted to restart glusterd after setting a very long key/value pair, glusterd did not restart. This update ensures that the buffer length is controlled by the gf_store_read_and_tokenize operation so that tokenizing succeeds.

Comment 3 Gaurav Kumar Garg 2016-03-21 10:10:32 UTC 
this bug is to track the fix
which was already in 3.1.2 but missed out as part of rebasing to 3.1.3
from upstream 3.7.9

Comment 7 Byreddy 2016-04-05 04:51:58 UTC 
Verified this bug using the build "glusterfs-3.7.9-1".


Set a key/value longer than 4096 characters for a volume and restarted glusterd, restart worked properly without any error message.

Steps done to verify:
=====================
1. Set the volume option "auth.allow" with 4109 characters
2. Restarted glusterd



With these details, moving the bug to verified state
