[Gluster-devel] brick crash/hang with io-threads in 2.5 patch 240

[Harris Landgarten]

Whenever I enable io-threads in one of my bricks I can cause a crash

in client1:

ls -lR /mnt/glusterfs

while this is running

in client2:

ls -l /mnt/glusterfs
ls: /mnt/glusterfs/secondary: Transport endpoint is not connected
total 4
?--------- ? ?      ?         ?            ? /mnt/glusterfs/backups
?--------- ? ?      ?         ?            ? /mnt/glusterfs/tmp

At this point the brick with io-threads has crashed:

The bricks is running on fedora and it doesn't want to generate a core. Any suggestions?

This is the spec file I used for the test


### Export volume "brick" with the contents of "/home/export" directory.
volume posix1
  type storage/posix                    # POSIX FS translator
  option directory /mnt/export        # Export this directory
end-volume

volume io-threads
  type performance/io-threads
  option thread-count 8
  subvolumes posix1
end-volume

### Add POSIX record locking support to the storage brick
volume brick
  type features/posix-locks
  option mandatory on          # enables mandatory locking on all files
  subvolumes io-threads
end-volume


### Add network serving capability to above brick.
volume server
  type protocol/server
  option transport-type tcp/server     # For TCP/IP transport
# option transport-type ib-sdp/server  # For Infiniband transport
# option bind-address 192.168.1.10     # Default is to listen on all interfaces
 option listen-port 6996              # Default is 6996
# option client-volume-filename /etc/glusterfs/glusterfs-client.vol
  subvolumes brick
# NOTE: Access to any volume through protocol/server is denied by
# default. You need to explicitly grant access through "auth" option.
  option auth.ip.brick.allow *          # access to "brick" volume
end-volume
