Seems like there is a leak in inodes:

# grep fuse.itable.active glusterdump.2460.dump.1467123831 | tail -1

[xlator.mount.fuse.itable.active.2904698]

As can be seen above there are 2904698 "active" inodes, which strongly points towards a leak.

regards,
Raghavendra

[raghu@unused 1353774]$ grep ia_type=1 ./glusterdump.2460.dump.1467123831 | wc -l
3457676
[raghu@unused 1353774]$ grep ia_type=2 ./glusterdump.2460.dump.1467123831 | wc -l
637

Seems like most of the inodes that leaked are regular files.

I think leak was introduced by http://review.gluster.org/#/c/11892/
for inodes on which "need-lookup" is set (typically the ones returned by readdirp), we call entry resolution even though loc->inode is set (as inode was already present in itable). However, fuse_resolve_entry_cbk assumes loc->inode is unset always, thereby overriding loc->inode with a new value without doing an unref.

regards,
Raghavendra

Clone of bug 1353774 which is duplicate of bug 1294759 which is CLOSED CURRENTRELEASE. Closing this one too.
