Description Raghavendra Bhat 2016-12-02 19:58:00 UTC
Description of problem:

To prevent the brick process from external unmounts of the export directory, posix locks the it by opening the directory.

If locking the export directory via opendir () fails, then the init of the posix fails and thus the brick is also shut down.

But posix as of now does not log the error it faced while doing opendir ().

    storage/posix: log the error when locking the export directory fails
    
    posix xlator tries to prevent external unmount of the brick export directory
    by locking it. It locks the export directory by opening it (i.e. doing a opendir).
    
    But if opendir fails it errors out resulting in the brick process going down. The
    error due to which opendir failed is not logged.
