Description Shwetha Panduranga 2012-06-08 10:31:32 UTC

Description of problem:
-----------------------
In a replicate volume, when a file is in split-brain state , cat on that file from the nfs mount should report "I/O Error"

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
------------------------------------------------------------
3.3.0qa45

How reproducible:
----------------
Often

Steps to Reproduce:
---------------------
1.Create a replicate volume(1x2. brick1 and brick2)
2.set self-heal-daemon off for the volume
3.Start the volume.
4.Create a NFS mount.
5.Create a directory <testdir> from NFS mount
6.Create a file <testdir/file> from NFS mount
6.Bring down "brick1".
7.From nfs mount execute: echo "TestCase: Test Split-Brain. Brick1 is down now" > testdir/file
8.Bring back the brick "brick1"
9.Bring down "brick2"
10.From nfs mount execute:echo "TestCase: Test Split-Brain. Brick2 is down now" > testdir/file
11.Bring back the brick "brick2"
12.From the mount execute : cat testdir/file
  
Actual results:
----------------
[06/08/12 - 21:18:14 root@APP-CLIENT1 ~]# cd /mnt/nfsc1; cat testdir/file
TestCase: Test Split-Brain. Brick2 is down now


Expected results:
-------------------
Should report I/O Error

Comment 1 Krishna Srinivas 2012-09-10 12:30:23 UTC

Pranith, replicate was not returning EIO in case like this (note that it is anonymous fd read). Can you take a look?

Comment 2 Pranith Kumar K 2012-09-11 02:20:16 UTC

Nfs does not perform lookups. Afr depends on lookup fop to realize that there is a split-brain and report it, so with NFS no EIOs are seen this is a known issue.

Comment 3 Jeff Darcy 2012-10-09 15:32:03 UTC

Submitted http://review.gluster.org/4050 to bump mtime/ctime on getattr requests (which NFS uses to check cache freshness) and force a new lookup.  When the self-heal done as part of the lookup fails due to split brain or GFID mismatch, the NFS client gets EIO back.

Comment 4 Vijay Bellur 2012-10-19 14:16:44 UTC

CHANGE: http://review.gluster.org/4058 (nfs: do lookup on getattr after brick-status change) merged in master by Vijay Bellur (vbellur)
