<title>cluster/ec: fix fd reopen</title>

<id>bf69fa4727f2b4432d7d54312bc0177cbcf44936</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently EC tries to reopen fd's that have been opened while a brick
was down. This is done as part of regular write operations, just after
having acquired the locks, and it's sent as a sub-fop of the main write
fop.

There were two problems:

1. The reopen was attempted on all UP bricks, even if a previous lock
didn't succeed. This is incorrect because most probably the open will
fail.

2. If reopen is sent and fails, the error is propagated to the main
operation, causing it to fail when it shouldn't.

To fix this, we only attempt reopens on bricks where the current fop
owns a lock, and we prevent any error to be propagated to the main
fop.

To implement this behaviour an argument used to indicate the minimum
number of required answers has overloaded to also include some flags. To
make the change consistent, it has been necessary to rename the
argument, which means that a lot of files have been changed. However
there are no functional changes.

This change has also uncovered a problem in discard code, which didn't
correctely process requests of small sizes because no real discard fop
was being processed, only a write of 0's on some region. In this case
some fields of the fop remained uninitialized or with incorrect values.
To fix this, a new function has been created to simulate success on a
fop and it's used in the discard case.

Thanks to Pranith for providing a test script that has also detected an
issue in this patch. This patch includes a small modification of this
script to force data to be written into bricks before stopping them.

<title>posix/ctime: Fix stat(time attributes) inconsistency during readdirp</title>

Problem:
   Creation of tar file on gluster volume throws warning
'file changed as we read it'

Cause:
   During readdirp, for few of the files whose inode is not
present, time attributes were served from backend. This caused
the ctime of few files to be different between before readdir
and after readdir by tar.

Solution:
  If ctime feature is enabled and inode is not present, don't
serve the time attributes from backend file, serve it from xattr.

<title>mount/fuse: expose auto-invalidation as a mount option</title>
<updated>2019-02-02T03:07:35+00:00</updated>

<id>a229ee1c8cdf8e0ac1abaeb60cabe6ab08f60546</id>
<content type='text'>
Auto invalidation is necessary when same (meta)data is shared/access
across multiple mounts. However, if (meta)data is not shared, all
relevant I/O goes through the cache of single mount and hence is
coherent with (meta)data on bricks always. So, fuse-auto-invalidation
can be disabled for this case which gives a huge performance boost for
workloads that write data and then immediately read the data they just
wrote.

From glusterfs --help,

&lt;snip&gt;
      --auto-invalidation[=BOOL]   controls whether fuse-kernel can
                             auto-invalidate attribute, dentry and page-cache.
                             Disable this only if same files/directories are
                             not accessed across two different mounts
                             concurrently [default: "on"]
&lt;/snip&gt;

Details on how disabling auto-invalidation helped to reduce pgbench
init times can be found at [1]. Time taken for pgbench init of scale
8000 was 8340s. That will be an improvement of 86% (59280s vs 8340s)
with auto-invalidations turned off along with other
optimizations. Just disabling auto-invalidation contributed 56%
improvement by reducing the total time taken by 33260s.

<title>cluster/thin-arbiter: Consider thin-arbiter before marking new entry changelog</title>

If a fop to create an entry fails on one of the data brick,
we mark the pending changelog on the entry on brick for which
it was successful. This is done as part of post op phase to
make sure that entry gets healed even if it gets renamed to
some other path where its parent was not marked as bad.

As it happens as part of post op, we should consider thin-arbiter
to check if the brick, which was successful, is the good brick or not.
This will avoide split brain and other issues.

There is a low level security issue with fencing since one client
can preempt another client's lock.

This patch does not completely eliminate the issue of a client
misbehaving, but certainly it adds a security layer for default use cases
that does not need fencing.

design reference: https://review.gluster.org/#/c/glusterfs-specs/+/21925/

This patch adds the lock preempt support.

Note: The current model stores lock enforcement information as separate
xattr on disk. There is another effort going in parallel to store this
in stat(x) of the file. This patch is self sufficient to add fencing
support. Based on the availability of the stat(x) support either I will
rebase this patch or we can modify the necessary bits post merging this
patch.
