When the ptlrpcd daemon handles the bulk write reply, it sees the EIO (-5) error and issues the warning that dirty pages are being discarded (ll_dirty_page_discard_warn()). Lustre attempts to include the file name in the warning, but at the point the warning is issued, the ptlrpcd thread only has access to the page and its inode. It must therefore do a path lookup, getting references on the dentry and inode in the process. While it holds these references, all other references are dropped, so when the ptlrpcd thread releases its references it is responsible for deleting the inode and flushing the dirty pages associated with the inode. But the dirty pages are already being written by the failed bulk rpc, so the ptlrpcd daemon deadlocks itself. The cleanest fix is to remove the file name from the warning message. The message contains the fid so an administrator can still identify the file. Furthermore, in most real life cases of this warning (even those that deadlock), the file name is never successfully retrieved. |

We were asked by a customer to add the filename to these messages in
could you please explain that a bit further? Is that because nobody cares to read the console error messages, or because the node is rebooted shortly after being evicted, or something else? |

In hundreds of actual warning messages that I've seen in console logs, I can't remember seeing one in which the filename is not empty. I've been paying careful attention for the last year or so and in that time, I have not seen a single one of these warnings that had a nonempty filename. Not a scientific study by any means, but I do see a lot of log files. When this bug was first identified, about 1.5 years ago, I thought that the deadlock was rare enough and filename useful enough that we should just live with the bug. But since then, we've seen half a dozen or so occurrences of the deadlock and I've noted that filename is often/always null. And yes, there's likely a way to preserve the file name in the warning. Another approach would be to acquire the file name further up the stack and stash it a way for use in this message. Just seemed like overkill for info that doesn't seem to get set in most cases. |

amk, this further discussion is bringing back some temporarily buried memories here. In the case of the deadlock, there is no file name because the deadlock is with the file being deleted. Do you know what the log looks like in non-deadlock cases? I think the message probably works in those cases...? |
| Comment by Ann Koehler (Inactive) [ 09/Jul/19 ] |
Not that I've seen. The warnings occur following evictions. I've been watching those and haven't seen file names even without the deadlock. Again not scientific, but informs my opinion. Given the pushback on removing the file name, I'm inclined to withdraw my patch and leave the deadlock as an open issue in the back log. |

Definitely it doesn't make sense to add work to the common case that is only useful for a very uncommon case. |

I looked through a bunch of older logs that included ll_dirty_page_discard_warn(), and while there are several that have valid filenames, those are all with Lustre 2.5.x. All of the more recent messages show "[FID]:/" as the pathname, so I agree it isn't very useful as it stands. Being able to run "lfs fid2path" on the FID afterward is OK for people who know Lustre, but it doesn't help for many users, and will fail for files that no longer exist. In the latter case (file was already deleted), it isn't clear if there is much value to investigate some issue if the file no longer exists. |

See LU-12915 for a different approach to reporting the names of files that have had dirty pages discarded. |
