Thanks for the response.
We didn't have the options set that the first two reviews were about.
The third was about changes to performance.readdir-ahead.
I turned this feature off today with prefetch being turned on on my
computer, and the bug still appeared, so I would think that the commit
would not fix it either.
Best regards,
Miklós

Referring to these patches and bugs associated with them might give you some
insight into the nature of the problem. The major culprit was interaction
between readdir-ahead and stat-prefetch. So, the issue you are seeing might be
addressed by these patches.

Subject: [Gluster-devel] fstat problems when killing with stat prefetch turned
on
Hello,
I tried reproducing the problem that Mateusz Slupny was experiencing
before (stat returning bad st_size value on self-healing) on my own
computer with only 3 bricks (one being an arbiter) on 3.10.0.
The result with such a small setup was that the bug appeared both on
killing and during the self-healing process, but only rarely (once in
hundreds of tries) and only with performance.stat-prefetch turned on.
This might be a completely different issue as on the setup Matt was
using, he could reproduce it with the mentioned option being off, it
always happened but only during recovery, not after killing.
I did submit a bug report about this:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1444892.
The problem is as Matt wrote is that this causes data corruption if one
is to use the returned size on writing.
Could I get some pointers as to what parts of the gluster code I should
be looking at to figure out what the problem might be?
Thanks in advance,
Miklós
