Subject: Persistence of completed_requests in sessionmap (do we need it?)
Date: Tue, 03 Mar 2015 21:39:30 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <54F62A12.8010104@redhat.com> (raw)
Zheng noticed on my new sessionmap code [1] that sessions weren't
getting dirtied on trim_completed_requests. I had missed that, because
I was only updating the places that we already incremented the
sessionmap version while modifying something.
I went and looked at how this worked in the existing code, and it
appears that we don't actually bother persisting updates to the
sessionmap if completed_requests is the only thing that changed. We
would *tend* to persist it as a consequence to other session updates
like prealloc_inos, but if one is simply issuing lots of metadata
updates to existing files in a loop, the sessionmap never gets written
back (even when expiring log segments).
During replay, we rebuild completed_requests from EMetaBlob::replay, and
we've made it this far without reliably persisting it in sessionmap, so
I wonder if we ever needed to save this at all? Thoughts?
Cheers,
John
