[Gluster-devel] Regarding marking of data/mdata changelog in entry self-heal

[Pranith Kumar K]

hi Avati,
       In entry self-heal of a directory, for every new file that is 
created, data/metadata changelogs are marked on the source file to 
indicate pending data/metadata self-heal from source file to the new 
file that is created as part of this self-heal. But this data/metadata 
changelogs are marked without taking any inodelks on the file. I 
remember us having a discussion about this a while back but don't 
remember reaching any conclusion as to why it is done this way. Could 
you let us know if it is a possible bug that needs to be fixed?

Pranith.
