Description Kotresh HR 2018-09-18 05:21:33 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1622549 +++

Description of problem:
If requested start time and end time doesn't fall into
first HTIME file, then history API fails even though
continuous changelogs are avaiable for the requested range
in other HTIME files. This is induced by changelog disable
and enable which creates fresh HTIME index file.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
mainline

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Setup gluster volume and let the I/O happen
2. Enable changelog
3. sleep for some time
4. Disable changelog
5. sleep for sometime
6. Enable changelog
7. Use the sample c program attached to query history API with start time after step 6



Actual results:
History fails

Expected results:
History API should not fail if continuous changelogs are available even if it's second HTIME file.

Additional info:

COMMIT: https://review.gluster.org/21016 committed in master by "Amar Tumballi" <amarts> with a commit message- libgfchangelog: Fix changelog history API

Problem:
If requested start time and end time doesn't fall into
first HTIME file, then history API fails even though
continuous changelogs are avaiable for the requested range
in other HTIME files. This is induced by changelog disable
and enable which creates fresh HTIME index file.

Cause and Analysis:
Each HTIME index file represents the availability of
continuous changelogs. If changelog is disabled and enabled,
a new HTIME index file is created represents non availability
of continuous changelogs. So as long as the requested start
and end falls into single HTIME index file and not across,
history API should succeed.

But History API checks for the changelogs only in first
HTIME index file and errors out if not available.

Fix:
Check in all HTIME index files for availability of continuous
changelogs for requested change.
