PFL layouts can exceed EA size limits

Bug Minor Resolved Duplicate Patrick Farrell Patrick Farrell PFL2 Fri, 14 Dec 2018 20:50:56 +0000 Sat, 7 Mar 2020 08:06:14 +0000 Sat, 7 Mar 2020 08:06:14 +0000 0 3 <p>Patrick, is this ticket still needed, or were the "large xattr" issues mostly addressed? Are we sticking with the "2000 stripe" maximum (about 48KB for plain RAID-0 layouts), or do we want to bite the bullet and allow a layout that is closer to the 64KB xattr size limit (possibly reserving some space so that the whole MDS reply can still fit into a 64KB buffer)?</p> <p>That would give us closer to 2500-2600 stripes, maybe 2560 stripes = 61504 bytes reasonable maximum to shoot for, leaving 4032 bytes for other parts of the RPC.</p> <p>Not that this is an urgent issue to pay attention to, just trying to close the ticket if it isn't needed.</p> <p>I think this was resolved with <a href="https://jira.whamcloud.com/browse/LU-9846" title="Overstriping - more than stripe per OST per component" class="issue-link" data-issue-key="LU-9846"><del>LU-9846</del></a>.</p> Related LU-9846 Development Rank 1|i0083r: Rank (Obsolete) 9223372036854775807 Severity
