Hi All, I hope this is not an overly stupid question..

Does anyone know a good way to test readdir (not readdirplus) on gluster?

I see in :
bugs/replicate/886998/strict-readdir.t

.. that there is a switch "cluster.strict-readdir". It does not appear to work, 
or be referenced in the code - perhaps I am missing something.

I also tried mounting nfs with the "nordirplus" option, this did not produce 
the desired results either, surprisingly.

With fuse client, I suspect you would need to do the following to let readdir fop percolate through the stack:

1. mount client with --use-readdirp=no. This will bypass readdirplus in fuse.

2. Disable md-cache. md-cache by default converts all readdir operations to readdirplus for its functioning.

3. Prevent dht from doing readdirp by default. While mounting, you could pass --xlator-option "*dht.use-readdrip=no" to prevent readdir to readdirp conversions in dht.
