REVIEW: https://review.gluster.org/20035 (Core: The lock contention on gf_client_dump_inodes_to_dict) posted (#1) for review on master by hari gowtham

Comment 2 Worker Ant 2018-05-30 03:37:40 UTC
COMMIT: https://review.gluster.org/20035 committed in master by "Amar Tumballi" <amarts> with a commit message- Core: The lock contention on gf_client_dump_inodes_to_dict

Problem: For a distributed replicated volume, in the inode status
command the lock on gf_client_dump_inodes_to_dict is held by the
first brickop. while this is being processed, if the second brickop
comes. It fails to get the lock and the whole brick op fails.

Fix: Instead of using a TRY_LOCK which errors out if the lock is busy,
Use LOCK which will wait till the lock is acquired.
