Description

Tried using hammer for the first time today. Created a hammer volume on
two partitions, exported it over nfs, mounted it on my fileserver and
tried rsyncing some GB of data. After 20+ GB, the machine starts acting
up: I can't start new processes (command line editing over ssh works though)
and the rsync processes on the non-dfly box is stuck. Taking a look at the
console, I can see three "cache_lock: blocked on 0x... (.filename.c.garbage)"
messages. Some nfs-hammer interaction perhaps?

It sounds like a buffer cache deadlock, which should be easy for me to
fix. Were you reading from the NFS mount or writing to the NFS mount?
I'm assuming you are running the latest HEAD.  If so, please drop
into the debugger (e.g. ctl-alt-esc) and generate a crash dump, and
get it onto leaf so I can take a look.

Only rsync (via nfs) was accessing the filesystem.

I am running HEAD from ~28h ago. Unfortunately, IIRC the machine doesn't have
a dumpdev configured (yeah, I know). Is there any information I can get you
via DDB?

Try it with latest head, to make sure the bug is still there.
I need to know whether rdist was reading HAMMER via NFS or writing to
HAMMER via NFS, and what kinds of file structure was being copied?
(big files, little files, hundreds of files, thousands of files.. what?).

Sure.

Just an rsync -av src dst, where dst is the nfs-mounted hammer volume, which
was just created, so I don't think rsync could read much. It got stuck in
the devel/ directory (in an old dragonfly sys/ checkout even). The file was
some version of ibcs2_stat.c. Before getting there it had copied over a few
hundread thousands of files, some small, some average-sized. I'm going to
make sure I can get a dump and then try it with latest head.

I'm doing an rdist test with pkgbox's /archive (about 56GB and 2 million
inodes), but so far it is running smoothly.

Hit an unrelated hammer bug (latest HEAD) while trying to reproduce. Should
be easy to fix; uploading dump to my ~/crash directory on leaf.

(oops, forgot to CC to the list)
I'm looking at the core file but I don't see anything wrong.  There are
no processes stuck on anything as far as I can tell.
Could it be an issue with your network?  Can you access the machine via
its console and see if the network still works?

This is not the same issue as I reported previously. AFAICT it's a null
pointer dereference:

In the previous bug (hit the new bug while trying to reproduce it) the network
was up; as I said, I could edit the command line over ssh just fine. In this
one, the machine crashed, so obviously no network access was possible.

There have been many fixes on HAMMER and NFS since this bug was reported.
Is it possible that it could be reproduced with HEAD?
