Yes that is the aim. The implementation I suggested tries to get that
information per xlator. Are you saying it is better to store in the
dict/inode/fd itself? I actually wrote one patch sometime back to do
something similar (Not tested yet :-) ).

I was not happy with this implementation either.
similar implementation for inode here: http://review.gluster.com/8302
But I am not happy with any of these implementations. Probably because
it is still not granular enough, i.e. fop info is missing. It is better
than no info but still bad. We can't have it on statedump either. So
when User reports high memory usage we still have to spend lot of time
looking over all the places where the dicts are allocated which is bad :-(.

One thing that would be helpful is "allocator" info for generic objects

amount of code.
Could you elaborate the idea please.

Subject: [Gluster-devel] how do you debug ref leaks?
hi,
Till now the only method I used to find ref leaks effectively is to
find what operation is causing ref leaks and read the code to find if
there is a ref-leak somewhere. Valgrind doesn't solve this problem
because it is reachable memory from inode-table etc. I am just wondering
if there is an effective way anyone else knows of. Do you guys think we
need a better mechanism of finding refleaks? At least which decreases
the search space significantly i.e. xlator y, fop f etc? It would be
better if we can come up with ways to integrate statedump and this infra
just like we did for mem-accounting.
One way I thought was to introduce new apis called
xl_fop_dict/inode/fd_ref/unref (). Each xl keeps an array of num_fops
per inode/dict/fd and increments/decrements accordingly. Dump this info
on statedump.
I myself am not completely sure about this idea. It requires all xlators
to change.
Any ideas?
Pranith
