[LU-4471] Failed 'rmdir' on remote directories still removes directory on MDT0

Related — Sat, 1 Mar 2014 00:10:34 +0000

When doing an rmdir on a 'first level' remote directory, IE, a directory on MDT1 which is in a directory on MDT0, the directory entry on MDT0 is removed before the sanity checking is done.

To reproduce (/lus/TEMP is a directory on MDT0):

/lus/TEMP # mkdir mdt0
/lus/TEMP # lfs mkdir -i 1 mdt1
/lus/TEMP # touch mdt1/file
/lus/TEMP # ls
mdt0  mdt1
/lus/TEMP # ls mdt1
1
/lus/TEMP # rmdir mdt1
rmdir: failed to remove `mdt1': Directory not empty
/lus/TEMP #  ls
mdt0

As you can see, rmdir returns with an error saying it failed to remove the directory mdt1, but the director no longer exists on MDT0.

Looking at mdt_reint_unlink (which is executing on MDT1), it's easy to see why.
When a first level remote directory is found, the delete RPC is sent to MDT0 before the sanity checking on MDT1 is done.

if (mdt_object_remote(mc)) {
                struct mdt_body  *repbody;

                if (!fid_is_zero(rr->rr_fid2)) {
                        CDEBUG(D_INFO, "%s: name "DNAME" cannot find "DFID"\n",
                               mdt_obd_name(info->mti_mdt),
                               PNAME(&rr->rr_name), PFID(mdt_object_fid(mc)));
                        GOTO(put_child, rc = -ENOENT);
                }
                CDEBUG(D_INFO, "%s: name "DNAME": "DFID" is on another MDT\n",
                       mdt_obd_name(info->mti_mdt),
                       PNAME(&rr->rr_name), PFID(mdt_object_fid(mc)));

                if (!mdt_is_dne_client(req->rq_export))
                        /* Return -EIO for old client */
                        GOTO(put_child, rc = -EIO);

                if (info->mti_spec.sp_rm_entry) {
                        struct lu_ucred *uc  = mdt_ucred(info);

                        if (!md_capable(uc, CFS_CAP_SYS_ADMIN)) {
                                CERROR("%s: unlink remote entry is only "
                                       "permitted for administrator: rc = %d\n",
                                        mdt_obd_name(info->mti_mdt),
                                        -EPERM);
                                GOTO(put_child, rc = -EPERM);
                        }

                        ma->ma_need = MA_INODE;
                        ma->ma_valid = 0;
                        mdt_set_capainfo(info, 1, child_fid, BYPASS_CAPA);
                        rc = mdo_unlink(info->mti_env, mdt_object_child(mp),
                                        NULL, &rr->rr_name, ma, no_name);
                        GOTO(put_child, rc);
                }

Followed shortly after by this:

        mutex_lock(&mc->mot_lov_mutex);

        rc = mdo_unlink(info->mti_env, mdt_object_child(mp),
                        mdt_object_child(mc), &rr->rr_name, ma, no_name);

        mutex_unlock(&mc->mot_lov_mutex);

It is mdo_unlink that returns the -39 (ENOTEMPTY) back to the client, because it calls mdd_unlink_sanity_check (which calls mdd_dir_is_empty).

I have logs from both MDTs and the client of an rmdir on MDT0 failing as expected, and an rmdir on MDT1 showing the unusual behavior described. I'll attach those shortly.
