            Bug ID: 1717754
           Summary: Enabled features.locks-notify-contention by default
           Product: GlusterFS
           Version: mainline
            Status: NEW
         Component: locks
          Assignee: bugs at gluster.org

Description of problem:

Currently 'features.locks-notify-contention' is disabled by default. This
option, when enabled, instructs the locks xlator to send an upcall notification
to the current owner of a lock whenever another client tries to acquire a
conflicting lock.

Both AFR and EC support this notification and react by releasing the lock as
soon as possible. This is extremely useful when eager-lock is enabled (it is by
default) because it allows AFR and EC to use it to improve performance but we
don't loose performance on other clients when access to the same resource is
required.

Since eager-lock is enabled by default, it doesn't make sense to keep
contention notification disabled.

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