Comment 1 Pranith Kumar K 2017-01-03 07:34:46 UTC
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create ganesha cluster and create 2*(4+2) EC volume.
2. Enable nfs-ganesha on the volume with mdcache settings.
3. Mount the volume.
4. Create a file and write contents to it.
5. Create hard link to that file.
6. Read the contents of the file.

Actual results:
Contents of original file are not seen when hardlink is created

Expected results:
Contents should not get removed

Additional info:

[root@dhcp47-49 ec_test]# echo "testfile" > test1
[root@dhcp47-49 ec_test]# cat test1
testfile
[root@dhcp47-49 ec_test]# ls -lhrtia test1

[root@dhcp47-49 ec_test]# ln test1 test1_hlink
[root@dhcp47-49 ec_test]# ls -lhrtia test1 test1_hlink

[root@dhcp47-49 ec_test]# cat test1_hlink
[root@dhcp47-49 ec_test]# 
[root@dhcp47-49 ec_test]#

Comment 2 Pranith Kumar K 2017-01-04 08:10:24 UTC
Works as expected with the fix:

root@dhcp35-190 - ~ 
13:34:05 :) ⚡ glusterd && gluster v create ec2 disperse-data 4 redundancy 2 localhost.localdomain:/home/gfs/ec_{0..5} force && gluster v start ec2 && mount -t glusterfs localhost.localdomain:/ec2 /mnt/ec2
volume create: ec2: success: please start the volume to access data
cd ^[.
volume start: ec2: success

root@dhcp35-190 - ~ 
13:34:49 :) ⚡ cd /mnt/ec2

root@dhcp35-190 - /mnt/ec2 
13:36:46 :( ⚡ echo abc > a && ln a c && cat c
abc

    cluster/ec: Do lookup on an existing file in link
    
    Problem:
    In link fop lookup is happening on the new fop which doesn't exist so the iatt
    ec serves parent xlators has size as zero which leads to 'cat' giving empty output
    
    Fix:
    Change code so that lookup happens on the existing link instead.
