# qemu-img create -f qcow2 test 1G
# qemu-img create -f qcow2 test-sn -b test -F qcow2

3. Commit the snapshot to its base:
# qemu-img commit -f qcow2 test-sn

Comment 5 Jeff Cody 2018-07-10 16:46:47 UTC
This is with a Gluster FUSE mount, interesting.

I can reproduce this with glusterfs 3.8.4-53.el7, but not 4.0.2-1.fc28.  Since this occurs with a fuse mount, it appears the difference is with gluster, and we are getting two different read results.  When I debug via GDB, sometimes it works OK on 3.8.4-53, which makes me think there is a race condition present somewhere.

Comment 6 Jeff Cody 2018-08-15 14:20:22 UTC
I'm re-assigning this over to glusterfs, for the reasons given in comment #5.  Since this is reported over a fuse mount, and the bug is not present with later libgfapi versions, this is something that needs to be addressed at the gluster package level.

Prasanna, could you take a look at this?

After evaluating this issue, there are no plans to address it further or fix it in an upcoming release.  Therefore, it is being closed.  If plans change such that this issue will be fixed in an upcoming release, then the bug can be reopened.
