LBUG: LustreError: 3982:0:(dcache.c:175:ll_ddelete()) ASSERTION( ((de)->d_count) == 1 ) failed:

Several clients are locking up and crashing. Looking at the logs from three different clients, I see three different errors, namely:

Apr 9 19:08:35 usrs389 kernel: [1821598.590661] LustreError: 3982:0:(dcache.c:175:ll_ddelete()) ASSERTION( ((de)->d_count) == 1 ) failed:

Customer reports the following:

Yesterday one of our heavy users ran into several problems:

1) Twice java.io.File.mkdirs() returned false when creating a directory in the lustre file system (he was never able to replicate it).
2) A number of times a file that he had previously opened and written to (on a single client) came back as not found when attempting to open.
3) Two clients locked up with LBUG in /var/log/messages
4) One client completely crashed.

For issue #2, the logic was of the form:

java.io.RandomFile raf = new RandomFile(<path>, "rw") raf.seek(<end of file>)
raf.write(<buffer>)
raf.close()

This sequence was executed successfully a number of times (by the same program) and then failed on the first line with a FileNotFoundException.

I will attach the logs from the clients that had LBUgs

Today, the customer reports:

I have uploaded netconsole output from 6 additional clients. All of these clients were used in yesterday's run by the heavy user and had not been rebooted. All of the problems were triggered by executing the following:

$ echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches

That command on usrs392 ended up hanging (using 100% of the cpu)

I executed "echo t > /proc/sysrq-trigger" on usrs392 which crashed the machine and dumped out the stack traces in the output.

That command on usrs

{388,393,394,399,400} caused the command to either segfault or be killed. Additionally, I decided to rerun the command on usrs{394,399,400} to see what happened, the command hung on all of three using up 100% of a single CPU. I managed to execute "echo l > /proc/sysrq-trigger" which shows the stack trace for CPU12 which was the really active CPU. usrs{399,400} both locked up before I could run any further tests on them and had to be rebooted. I still have usrs{388,393} in the corrupted state if you need me to run any commands on them (they have not yet been rebooted).

It appears that the file/directory cache in the kernel is being corrupted by the lustre client which is causing these infinite loops when trying to drop the caches.

I looked at the MDS log. It includes the following:
