Description

Hi Folks,

Looking for some assistance on this one. We're having trouble with reliable LNet routing between Qlogic and OPA clients. Basically, we see long pauses in I/O transfers between moving data between the two fabric types. Testing with lnet_selftest has show that over many hours, some tests (300second runs) will randomly fail.

In recent testing over the last few nights it seems to fail more often when LTO = OPA and LFROM = QIB. As far as I can tell, buffers and lnetctl stats seem, etc. to look during transfers, then suddenly msgs_alloc and proc/sys/lnet/peers queue drops to zero right when lnet_selftest starts showing zero sized transfers.

For LNet settings: With mis-matched (ie: ko2iblnd settings that arent the same) Lnet router OPA <-> compute/storage node OPA would basically always give me errors. With matched and 'intel optimized' settings I've not yet seen it fail. Ethernet routing to OPA also seems to work fine.

We have the QIB's LNet configuration set to the same as the other nodes on the QIB fabric. I'll attach the config to this ticket if that helps. In case we have some settings incorrectly applied to one of the IB nets.

Are there any special settings we need to apply when trying routing between old & new 'Truescale' fabrics?

Shortened example of failed selftest:

Bit of help with this would be really appreciated. Let me know which logs would be the most helpful, eg. repeating tests with debug flags enabled can be done if that helps. I could certainly have made a configuration error - if something doesn't look right with the lnet.conf let me know. We can't seem to find any ko2iblnd settings that are reliable.

Cheers,
Simon

Hi Amir,

Yep. That time will work. I'll email you through some details for a meeting with prospective dates.

Does 4pm PST, 9AM (your time) work? If so, let me know the date that works for you. Would need to be able to share screens or something of that sort to debug further.

Hi Amir,

> The above is from the export-opa config file. The min tx credits are quiet low. That indicates a lot of queuing is happening on these peers. Are these peers relevant to the test you're running. They appear to be on the OPA network (o2ib44)?

These peers are not relevant for the purposes of the lnet_selftest (from my understanding). They are however important for the purposes of actual file transfers though.. which is why we're going back to basic lnet_selftest's to verify the network between fabrics.

The below peers are (respectively) MDS1, MDS2, OSS1 for home & apps. etc, OSS2 for home & apps. etc. There are another 8 x OSS's for the main large filesystem too not mentioned here but use IP's 192.168.44.13[1-8]@o2ib44:

> I didn't see any relevant errors in the log file you sent me. Are there any other errors in /var/log/messages? besides the one you pasted?

Yeah, dmesg and /var/log/messages are really light for errors. The only errors that appear during the test period were what I pasted in. eg: the "failed with -103", and "failed with -110" examples.

> Would you also be able to share the lnet-selftest script you're using?

Yup. It's a pretty standard one:

# Parameters are supplied as environment variables

> If you run lnet_selftest from the router to the QLOGIC node, do you get any errors? I'm trying to see if the problem is restricted between the router under test and the node.

In my testing I found that a Qlogic compute node to the Qlogic interface on the lnet router proved to be working reliably. The same goes for OPA compute nodes to the OPA interface on the lnet router - they worked just fine. In both cases though (now this is testing my memory!), if I had mismatched the ko2iblnd settings between a compute/routers respective fabric interfaces then I would get issues (depending which settings were mismatched).. but having them matched works just fine.

Apart from the two Qlogic configs you just mentioned here. I'd also tested this configuration which also gave poor results with routing between fabric types. This is actually our current lnet setup on all Qlogic compute nodes with the exception of my test host / lnet router where I've been going through changing the parameters to try and figure this all out:

    - net type: o2ib
      local NI(s):
        - nid: 192.168.55.75@o2ib

Not a problem at all. We're east coast Australia, I can setup a live session to help debug this if you want to pick a time that suits us both.

Simon

The above is from the export-opa config file. The min tx credits are quiet low. That indicates a lot of queuing is happening on these peers. Are these peers relevant to the test you're running. They appear to be on the OPA network (o2ib44)?

I didn't see any relevant errors in the log file you sent me. Are there any other errors in /var/log/messages? besides the one you pasted?

Would you also be able to share the lnet-selftest script you're using?

Also for the QIB I see that you tried both of these configs:

              peercredits_hiw: 64
              map_on_demand: 32
              concurrent_sends: 256
              fmr_pool_size: 2048
              fmr_flush_trigger: 512
              fmr_cache: 1
              ntx: 2048
              conns_per_peer: 4

and

              peercredits_hiw: 64
              map_on_demand: 0
              concurrent_sends: 256
              fmr_pool_size: 2048
              fmr_flush_trigger: 512
              fmr_cache: 1
              ntx: 2048
              conns_per_peer: 1

If you run lnet_selftest from the router to the QLOGIC node, do you get any errors? I'm trying to see if the problem is restricted between the router under test and the node.

My preference though is to stick with conns_per_peer: 1 for QLOGIC. the conns_per_peer 4 was intended for OPA interfaces only.

Finally, would we be able to setup a live debug session?

thanks

Hi Amir,

I should add: there are no issues we can see with routes being marked down on either side or lctl pings failing. In general, everything appears OK. I wasn't sure if a really short test would capture it, so a ran the standard 5 min test in which is failed maybe 30 second to a minute into the test. I've attached three configs and the dk log as requested.

Cheers,

Simon

Hi Simon,

If you can get me the following info that would be great:

Configuration from OPA node, router node and QLogic node (lnetctl export > config.yaml). Would be great if each one is in a separate file.
Are you able to ping from the OPA -> QLOGIC and from QLOGIC -> OPA with no problem? (lnetctl ping <NID>). If you're encountering a failure with simple ping, let's turn on and capture the logging: lctl set_param debug=+"net neterror" THEN run ping test THEN lctl dk > log.dk.
If problem is not reproducible via ping then, if you can turn on debugging as above run a short selftest run (which would contain errors) and then capture logging.

thanks

amir

Hi Guys,

To update this: I went through all the scenarios doing a 5min selftests for each combination of eth/qdr/opa via our routers. This included tests between a node of each fabric type and the routers respective HCA/NIC and between nodes on different fabrics. The common factor in each failure event is the Qlogic HCA. We cannot reliably route between Qlogic and Ethernet or OPA. We can route fine between Ethernet and OPA / Ethernet. Failed selftests show up as this in dmesg/or message logs:

Eg.

QDR <-> OPA Test 2:
LTO - OPA Compute node
LFROM - Qlogic Compute node

cmdline# TM=300 LTO=192.168.44.199@o2ib44 LFROM=192.168.55.78@o2ib /opt/lustre/bin/lst-bench.sh

I modified one of our compute nodes today and re-configured the Qlogic HCA's on that node (as well as the Qlogic HCA the router). Running either of the following lnetctl net: configurations for the Qlogic HCA showed the same failed results as above. Selftests withing Qlogic only on either of these configs works without fail, the problems are only between Qlogic and some other fabric type.

Any thoughts on what we should be looking at?

SC Admin added a comment - 22/Aug/18 7:50 AM Hi Guys, To update this: I went through all the scenarios doing a 5min selftests for each combination of eth/qdr/opa via our routers. This included tests between a node of each fabric type and the routers respective HCA/NIC and between nodes on different fabrics. The common factor in each failure event is the Qlogic HCA. We cannot reliably route between Qlogic and Ethernet or OPA. We can route fine between Ethernet and OPA / Ethernet. Failed selftests show up as this in dmesg/or message logs: Eg. QDR <-> OPA Test 2: LTO - OPA Compute node LFROM - Qlogic Compute node cmdline# TM=300 LTO=192.168.44.199@o2ib44 LFROM=192.168.55.78@o2ib /opt/lustre/bin/lst-bench.sh ..snip.
