[Gluster-devel] Force lookup if inode ctx is not present for master xlators.

[Mohammed Rafi K C]

Hi All,

We are facing an issue where inode_ctx is missing for some of the
xlators, even though inode was already linked to inode table. This can
happen if the inode was linked from any xlators which is loaded below
master xlator. A similar problem was reported in bug 1297311
<https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1297311> . To solve this
problem we are thinking to force a lookup if the inode_ctx was not
present on master xlators. We are assuming that, After the first
successful lookup, every linked inode should have an inode_ctx in all
xlators which stores an inode_ctx, ie as part of resolving an entry  if
inode_ctx was not present for master xlators, we are planning to send a
lookup.

Your suggestion and comments will be most welcome.

Regards
Rafi KC
