Subject: [Cluster-devel] [GFS2 PATCH 1/3] Obtaining no_formal_ino from directory entry
Date: Mon, 25 Jun 2007 21:14:53 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4680688D.6060608@redhat.com> (raw)

GFS2 lookup code doesn't ask for inode shared glock. This implies during 
in-memory inode creation for existing file, GFS2 will not disk-read in 
the inode contents. This leaves no_formal_ino un-initialized during 
lookup time. The un-initialized no_formal_ino is subsequently encoded 
into file handle. Clients will get ESTALE error whenever it tries to 
access these files.
