From: Patrick Farrell <[email protected]> This happend with SLES11SP2 Lustre client, which in turn acts as an NFS server, exporting a subtree of an Lustre fs through NFS.
We detected that whenever we are writing to a new file using, fx, 'echo blah > newfile', it will return ENOENT error. We found out that this was caused by the anonymous dentry. In SLESS11SP2, anonymous dentries are assigned '/' as the name, instead of an empty string. When MDT handles the intent_open call, it will look up the obj by the name if it is not an empty string, and thus couldn't find it. As MDS_OPEN_BY_FID is always set on this request, we never need to send the name in this request. The fid is already available and should be used in case the file has been renamed.
