Hello,

We are running lustre 2.8.0-RC5--PRISTINE-2.6.32-573.12.1.el6_lustre.x86_64.

Since thursday we are getting a "bad address" error when trying to write on the lustre volume.

Looking at the logs on the MDS, we are getting this kind of messages :

Dec 10 06:26:18 localhost kernel: Lustre: 9593:0:(llog_cat.c:93:llog_cat_new_log()) lustre-MDD0000: there are no more free slots in catalog Dec 10 06:26:18 localhost kernel: Lustre: 9593:0:(llog_cat.c:93:llog_cat_new_log()) Skipped 45157 previous similar messages Dec 10 06:26:18 localhost kernel: LustreError: 9593:0:(mdd_dir.c:887:mdd_changelog_ns_store()) lustre-MDD0000: cannot store changelog record: type = 6, name = 'PEPFOLD-00016_bestene1-mc-SC-min-grompp.log', t = [0x20000a58f:0x858e:0x0], p = [0x20000a57d:0x17fd9:0x0]: rc = -28 Dec 10 06:26:18 localhost kernel: LustreError: 9593:0:(mdd_dir.c:887:mdd_changelog_ns_store()) Skipped 45157 previous similar messages


I saw here that this issue was supposed to be solved in 2.8.0:
https://jira.whamcloud.com/browse/LU-6556

Could someone help us unlocking this situation ?

Thanks.

Hello,

The log messages don't point at a "bad address" issue but rather at a "no space left on device" one ("rc = -28" --> -ENOSPC).

You most likely have, at some point, registered a changelog user on your mds and that user is not consuming changelogs.

You can check this by running:

[mds0]# lctl get_param mdd.*.changelog_users
mdd.lustre-MDT0000.changelog_users=
current index: 3
ID    index
cl1   0

The most important thing to look for is the distance between "current index" and the index for "cl1", "cl2", ... I expect for at least one changelog user, that distance is 2^32 (the maximum number of changelog records). Note that changelog indexes wrap around (0, 1, 2, ..., 4294967295, 0, 1, ...).

If I am right, then you can either deregister the changelog user:

[mds0]# lctl --device lustre-MDT0000 changelog_deregister cl1

or acknowledge the records:

[client]# lfs changelog_clear lustre-MDT0000 cl1 0

(clearing with index 0 is a shortcut for "acknowledge every changelog records")

Both those options may take a while.

There is a third one that might yield faster result, but it is also much more dangerous to use (you might want to check with your support first) :

[mds0]# umount /dev/mdt0
[mds0]# mount -t ldiskfs /dev/mdt0 /mnt/lustre-mdt0
[mds0]# rm /mnt/lustre-mdt0/changelog_catalog
[mds0]# rm /mnt/lustre-mdt0/changelog_users
[mds0]# umount /dev/mdt0
[mds0]# mount -t lustre /dev/mdt0 <...> # remount the mdt where it was

*I cannot garantee this will not trash your filesystem. Use at your own risk.

In recent versions (2.12, maybe even 2.10), lustre comes with a builtin garbage collector for slow/inactive changelog users.

Hello Quentin,

Many thanks for your quick reply.

This is what I got when I issued the command you suggested:

[root@lustre-mds]# lctl get_param mdd.*.changelog_users
mdd.lustre-MDT0000.changelog_users=
current index: 4160462682
ID    index
cl1   21020582

I then issued the following command:
[root@lustre-mds]# lctl --device lustre-MDT0000 changelog_deregister cl1

It's been running for almost 20 hours now. Do you have an estimation of the time it could take ?
When you deregister a changelog user: every changelog record has to be invalidated (maybe this is batched, but I don't know enough about the on-disk structure to say).

I do not recall ever waiting that long. Then again, I never personally deregistered a changelog users with that many pending changelog records.

The changelog_deregister command still hasn't finished yet. Is there any way to track the state of the purge of records ?
I believe there is an "llog_reader" implemented in the lustre sources, but I never really used it.

If you just want to make sure Lustre is doing something, you can have a look at your mdt0: invalidating changelog records should generate a high load of small random writes.
If the device is idle, something is probably wrong.

Hard to tell. iostat doesn't show much I/O.

Is your filesystem still unavailable?

The following command doesn't show any registered changelog user:

cat /proc/fs/lustre/mdd/lustre-MDT0000/changelog_users

I tried to mount the lustre volume on a client. I don't get the "Bad Address" error anymore.

Best,
Yes, I don't think you need to wait for "changelog_deregister" to complete to start using your filesystem again. If there is not any changelog user registered on your system, changelog records are not emitted.

Just try to wait until "changelog_deregister" completes before registering a new changelog user. =)
