Hello, We are fairly frequently now running into this. Looks like an issue with the sysfs interface.
iscsi_sysfs_get_blockdev_from_lun() sometimes does not find the SCSI block device (say /dev/sdd) for a logged in iSCSI target. Thus, iscsiadm -m session -P0 does not print the SCSI device block path (say /dev/sdd) >From code walk-through, I can see there are 2 places, where it can happen. Sharing that here. diff -uNr open-iscsi-2.0.874/usr/iscsi_sysfs.c open-iscsi-2.0.874_2/usr/iscsi_sysfs.c --- open-iscsi-2.0.874/usr/iscsi_sysfs.c 2018-11-19 19:25:38.935602682 +0000 +++ open-iscsi-2.0.874_2/usr/iscsi_sysfs.c 2018-11-19 19:43:08.214013706 +0000 @@ -1557,19 +1557,24 @@ snprintf(id, sizeof(id), "%d:0:%d:%d", host_no, target, lun); if (!sysfs_lookup_devpath_by_subsys_id(devpath, sizeof(devpath), SCSI_SUBSYS, id)) { - log_debug(3, "Could not lookup devpath for %s %s", + log_error("Could not lookup devpath for %s %s", SCSI_SUBSYS, id); return NULL; } + log_debug(0, "devpath is %s for id %s", devpath, id); sysfs_len = strlcpy(path_full, sysfs_path, sizeof(path_full)); if (sysfs_len >= sizeof(path_full)) sysfs_len = sizeof(path_full) - 1; strlcat(path_full, devpath, sizeof(path_full)); + log_debug(0, "path_full is %s", path_full); dirfd = opendir(path_full); - if (!dirfd) + if (!dirfd) { + log_error("Could not open sysfs dir %s", + path_full); return NULL; + } while ((dent = readdir(dirfd))) { if (!strcmp(dent->d_name, ".") || !strcmp(dent->d_name, "..")) Are there such known issues with the sysfs where device paths are not found, for logged in targets? Any pointers/suggestions on debugging this greatly appreciated. We too are trying to root-cause and would share our finding here. Thanks, Satyajit -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "open-iscsi" group.
