New subject: Ganesha crash while doing Delegation recall

Tuesday, 3 May 2022

You are using FSAL_VFS? I think there is some stuff in 4.0.x that might help, we will be
tagging 4.1 in the next few weeks, so if you want to try 4.0.5 and see how that fares that
would be good information. It would be good to understand what might have caused such a
big performance regression.

Hi Frank,

Thanks for the response. I also though disabling delegations is a safer bet at this point.
But I wanted to check regarding latest version. We tried upgrading to version 3.5 a few
months back and then observer about 15-25% regression in our perf tests for 8k RW on NFSV3
as well as NFSv4.1. Were there any perf fixes that went in after 3.5?

This perf regression is holding us back from upgrading.

Thanks,

Sriram

V2.8 is pretty old and no longer supported. Additionally, I don’t know if delegations have
been tested or supported recently at all so I doubt there’s any fixes but you could
certainly try a newer release, or look through the git history.

Hi,

        Currently seeing the following crash and it is a recurrent crash. We are using
ganesha 2.8.4. Can someone please help in telling if this is a known issue and whether it
is fixed in later releases ?

This seems like a channel is removed while it is being accessed by the backchannel.

Thanks,
