cluster/dht: Fix unsafe iteration on inode->fd_list

2016-06-24T10:20:05+00:00

When DHT traverses the inode->fd_list, it does that in an unsafe
way that can generate races with fd_unref() called from other threads.

This patch fixes this problem taking the inode->lock and adding a
reference to the fd while it's being used outside of the mutex
protected region.

A minor change in storage/posix has been done to also access the
inode->fd_list in a safe way.

nfs : store sattr properly in nfs3_setattr() call

2016-06-24T10:19:49+00:00

nfs3_setattr stores the input arguments in cs->stbuf.
However, inode/entry resolution code overwrites cs->stbuf
after a successful resolution, thereby overwriting the
input arguments with iatt values stored on backend.
Hence operations like chmod/chown turns out to be a NOP.
Specifically following are the functions that overwrite
cs->stbuf:

    nfs3_fh_resolve_inode_lookup_cbk
    nfs3_fh_resolve_entry_lookup_cbk

Since we resort to inode resolution only when inode is not
found in inode table and lru limit guards the number of
inodes in itable, we run into this issue only when the data
set is bigger than lru limit of itable.

Fix is to store input arguments in a member other than
cs->stbuf.

Thanks Du for suggesting the fix

dht/afr/client/posix: Fail mkdir without gfid-req

2016-06-17T06:52:55+00:00

Do not allow directory creations without gfids as
after the directories are created, operations
on them fail anyway. So it is better to fail mkdir.

libglusterfs: Negate all but O_DIRECT flag if present on anon fds

2016-06-17T00:21:20+00:00

        Backport of: http://review.gluster.org/14665

This is to prevent any unforeseen problems that might arise due to
writevs and readvs being wound with @flag parameter containing
O_TRUNC or O_APPEND especially wrt translators like sharding and ec
where O_TRUNC write or O_APPEND write on individual shards/fragments
is not the same as O_TRUNC write or O_APPEND write as expected by the
application.

core, shard: Make shards inherit main file's O_DIRECT flag if present

2016-06-16T16:04:10+00:00

        Backport of: http://review.gluster.org/14191

If the application opens a file with O_DIRECT, the shards'
anon fds would also need to inherit the flag. Towards this,
shard xl would be passing the odirect flag in the @flags parameter
to the WRITEV fop. This will be used in anon fd resolution
and subsequent opening by posix xl.

features/changelog: Change barrier notification mechanism

2016-06-16T16:03:15+00:00

Backport of http://review.gluster.org/14272

The barrier notification mechanism was fd based and 'select'
was being used. 'select' breaks when number of fds opened
by brick process exceeds 1024. To avoid this and also
the maintainance of pipe between notify and 'changelog_rollover',
the pipe has been replaced with pthread condition signal
and timed wait mechanism.
