Description
A gap in the MDT recovery llog (of unknown origin) was hit during recovery.
log_process_thread()) lfs02-MDT001e-osp-MDT0000: [0x3:0x1b70:0x4] Invalid record: index 16123 but expected 16122
and this was later confirmed with llog_reader:
rec #15221 type=106a0000 len=1160 offset 17231040 rec #16097 type=106a0000 len=1160 offset 18220168 rec #16098 type=106a0000 len=1160 offset 18221328 rec #16099 type=106a0000 len=1160 offset 18222488 rec #16100 type=106a0000 len=1160 offset 18223648 Previous index is 16121, current 16123, offset 18249168 rec #18718 type=106a0000 len=1160 offset 21180888 rec #20278 type=106a0000 len=1160 offset 22943400
This caused the MDT recovery to fail and all of the clients were evicted from that MDT. It isn't clear whether the global eviction is necessary, or if this should be handled more gracefully? Other MDTs likely have a copy of that operation for replay, and if not then it would be lost.
What is more problematic is that this recovery llog error is persistent, and the same problem happens on every recovery for that MDT. If the clients (and MDTs?) are evicted from recovery, the llog records should at a minimum be cancelled, or the llog file should be cleared. Better yet would be to not treat this gap as a fatal error, since I don't think there is anything that can be done about it at this point.
