Do you have this one: 11e0e375e40658267cbf449afacaa53a136f7097 MDCACHE - Fix race between lru functions for the chunk and the parent of the chunk getting freed and reused. Daniel On 2/28/20 9:36 AM, Madhu P Punjabi wrote:

Hi All, When using 2.7.6 we noticed a crash related to avltree_remove(..) when a directory chunk was getting cleaned. At the time of crash "entries_used

...

entries_hiwat" and mdcache_lru_get() got an entry for re-use from lru_try_reap_entry(), where the entry was related to a directory. The crash happened when mdcache_lru_clean() -> mdc_clean_entry() -> mdcache_dirent_invalidate_all()was called to clean the directory chunk and "node" had an unexpected address. We were running tests with the below configuration: /CacheInode {         Entries_HWMark = 1000;         Chunks_HWMark = 1000;         LRU_Run_Interval = 90;         FD_HWMark_Percent = 60;         FD_LWMark_Percent = 0;         FD_Limit_Percent = 90;         Dir_Chunk = 32000; }/

At the time of crash: /*entries_hiwat = 1000, entries_used = 25238, chunks_hiwat = 1000, chunks_used = 366*/ We are using 2.7.6 along with some recent patches for MDCACHE code. Has anybody seen this kind of crash ?Any patches that may help to fix the crash ?  We have the coredump, so can provide more information using it. But we have not been able to recreate the crash in our test attempts.
