[LU-12726] sanity-sec "error: set_param: setting /sys/fs/lustre/mdt/lustre-MDT0000/identity_upcall=NONE: wrote only 1"

Tue, 26 Nov 2019 16:31:55 +0000

sanity-sec tests are passing, but there is are errors seen in the suite_log when setting the identity_upcall parameter. Looking at the logs at https://testing.whamcloud.com/test_sets/b76d7526-cf1b-11e9-98c8-52540065bddc , all tests pass, but it looks like ‘lctl set_param’ is failing when setting identity_upcall:

CMD: trevis-3vm6 lctl get_param -n mdt.lustre-MDT0000.identity_upcall
CMD: trevis-3vm6 lctl set_param -n mdt.lustre-MDT0000.identity_upcall "/usr/sbin/l_getidentity"
trevis-3vm6: error: set_param: setting /sys/fs/lustre/mdt/lustre-MDT0000/identity_upcall=/usr/sbin/l_getidentity: wrote only 1
CMD: trevis-3vm6 lctl set_param -n mdt/lustre-MDT0000/identity_flush=-1

We see this error prior to test 0, in tests 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23a, 23b, 24, 27a and 31

This error started on 02 August 2019 with Lustre 2.12.56.84 with logs at https://testing.whamcloud.com/test_sets/8867f248-b561-11e9-b753-52540065bddc
