Comment 1 Pranith Kumar K 2017-04-03 12:12:49 UTC
    Problem:
    local->loc.gfid in dht_lookup_directory() will be null-gfid for a fresh lookup.
    dht_lookup_dir_cbk() updates local->loc.gfid while in other thread dht_lookup_directory()
    is still winding lookup calls to subvolumes so there is a chance of partial gfid being
    seen by EC.
    
    We saw in 12x(4+2) volume, ec is receiving an loc where the gfid has last 12 bytes matching
    with the gfid of the directory and the first 4 bytes are all-zeros. This is leading to EC
    erroring out the lookup with EINVAL which leads to NFS failing lookup with EIO.
    
    snip from gdb:
    $37 = (dht_local_t *) 0x7fde5de5b3cc
    (gdb) p /x $37->loc.gfid
    $39 = {0x3b, 0x82, 0x10, 0x5e, 0x40, 0x65, 0x43, 0x14, 0xa0, 0xc6, 0x8, 0xf5,
    0x6c, 0x2c, 0xb8, 0x56}
    (gdb) fr 7
    state=<optimized out>) at ec-generic.c:837
    837                     ec_lookup_rebuild(fop->xl->private, fop, cbk);
    (gdb) p /x fop->loc[0].gfid
    $40 = {0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x43, 0x14, 0xa0, 0xc6, 0x8, 0xf5, 0x6c,
