Hi,
Occasionally during testing, we see the following assertion failure in
log_pull_tail():
[ 1104.061245] gfs2: fsid=xapi-clusterd:2d2cc24c-c48a-ca.0: fatal:
assertion "atomic_read(&sdp->sd_log_blks_free) <=
sdp->sd_jdesc->jd_blocks" failed
[ 1104.061245] function = log_pull_tail, file = fs/gfs2/log.c, line = 510
It always seems to happen shortly after journal recovery. I added some
debug logging at the point of the assertion failure and got the following:
[ 862.335390] gfs2: fsid=xapi-clusterd:9f0b3587-c0f3-c8.1: jid=0:

[ 863.362580] DBG: sd_ail1_list empty? = yes
It looks to me that something messes with sd_log_tail and
sd_log_head/sd_log_head_flush during recovery which causes a subsequent
call to gfs2_log_flush() to hit the assertion.
Any ideas about this?
Thanks,
