This is the actual assert

pvfs2-client-core: src/client/sysint/sys-io.sm:1860: io_post_write_ack_recv: Assertion `ret == 0' failed.

Interesting.. It looks like job_bmi_recv() was returning 1 indicating
immediate completion for the final write ack's receive which seems
impossible..
Sam, Phil: That shouldn't happen, right?

Right.  It should be returning an error if it fails -- never 1.

Anthony, which BMI method (tcp, ib, gm) are you using with your setup?

I don't see this on my setup even with -threaded client-cores...

Sam: WHat is the reason for building the -threaded version of pvfs2- client-core?

Multiple threads allows for a device thread to handle unexpected operations from the kernel module. We were seeing minor performance improvements with some tests we did, especially for smaller IOs.

-sam

I forget now..BMI on client drives progress using threads?
The main thread/event loop is certainly uni threaded as far as I can tell.
thanks,
Murali
