Description Raghavendra G 2018-11-12 11:56:32 UTC
Description of problem:

We have moved to newer implementation of mem-pools. But statedump doesn't print the information about them. Github issue [1] captures upstream effort on this. But preliminary reading shows the work still has some parts to be completed. So, the effort includes:

* backporting https://review.gluster.org/18076
* reviewing whether the information printed by above patch is complete from the perspective of debugging memory consumption issues.

Patch is already available upstream.

(In reply to Amar Tumballi from comment #4)
> Patch is already available upstream.

If you are speaking about https://review.gluster.org/18076, we still need to evaluate whether it covers all aspects of newer memory pools. So, the work may not be complete

Comment 9 Raghavendra G 2018-12-11 05:09:27 UTC
https://review.gluster.org/#/c/glusterfs/+/18075/ is needed too.

Comment 10 Raghavendra G 2018-12-11 05:23:05 UTC
commit msg of one of patches [1] say - This only captures the information from 'struct mem_pool', and not from the global 'struct mem_pool_shared' or the pool_sweeper thread. The current details help with detecting memory leaks.


so we need to find out what is left out if we don't dump those fields and preferably add those two fields if important.
