Yeah... 1. keep a list of osd_reqid_t's in each object_info_t and match against that for dup ops (i forget if the patch for this already went in?). there should probably be a tunable for the max list len and age cutoff. 2. preserve that list on copy-from when a flag is specified so that we preserve it for both promote and flush. sage > > -----Original Message----- > From: Sage Weil [mailto:sweil@redhat.com] > Sent: Tuesday, January 20, 2015 12:51 AM > To: Wang, Zhiqiang; sjust@redhat.com; ceph-devel@vger.kernel.org > Subject: wip-proxy-write and (non-idempotent) client ops > > Consider: > > 1- primary rx client delete > proxy delete to base pool > 2- primary initiate promote (list-snaps, copy-from) > 3- primary rx delete reply > 4- primary tx client reply > 5- socket failure drops client reply > 6- primary rx promote completion (enoent), writes a whiteout > 7- client resents delete > 8- primary replies with ENOENT > > i.e., the problem seems to be that delete is not idempotent and we can't tell that the same client op is what triggered the delete. > > We could special case delete since that is where this is noticeable, but I think the bigger problem is that the op history that is used for dup op detection is not preserved across the cache and base tier.
