Hi folks, Currently we use a lockfile to protect the create operations from concurrent delete the source volume/snapshot, we use exclusive locks on both delete and create sides which will ensure that:
1. If a create of VolA from snap/VolB is in progress, any delete requests for snap/VolB will wait until the create is complete. 2. If a delete of snap/VolA is in progress, any create from snap/VolA will wait until snap/VolA delete is complte. but, the exclusive locks will also result in: 3. If a create of VolA from snap/VolB is inprogress, any other create requests from snap/VolB will wait until the create is complete. So the create operations from same volume/snapshot can not process on parallel, please reference bp [1]. I'd like to change the current filelock or introduce a new lock to oslo.concurrency. Proposed change: Add exclusive(write) locks for delete operations and shared(read) locks for create operations, to ensure that create from volume/snapshot can work on parallel and protect create operations from concurrent delete the source volume/snapshot. I'd like to get what's your suggestions, thanks in advance. [1] https://blueprints.launchpad.net/cinder/+spec/enhance-locks -zhenguo
