The first sign is an "XDR decoding failed" error in the logs. This happens with Gluster 3.7.11 accessed through Ganesha and gfapi. The volume is a distributed-disperse 4*(4+2). I'm able to reproduce the problem easily doing the following test: iozone -t2 -s10g -r1024k -i0 -w -F/iozone{1..2}.dat echo 3 >/proc/sys/vm/drop_caches iozone -t2 -s10g -r1024k -i1 -w -F/iozone{1..2}.dat The error happens soon after starting the read test.</blockquote>
<pre>Do you know if this only happens on disperse volumes, or also with
others?</pre>
<pre> </pre>
</blockquote>
<pre>I have only seen the problem with EC. Not sure if it's because I do most of my tests with EC or because other volumes do not manifest this problem. However I've only seen this when I started testing Ganesha. I have never seen the problem with FUSE.</pre>
<pre> </pre>
<pre>I think the reason is that FUSE is slower than Ganesha (little more than 120 MB/s vs 400 MB/s) and the combination of events needed to cause this problem would be much more unlikely to happen on FUSE. Since EC also talks to many bricks simultaneously (6 in this case), maybe this makes it more sensible to communications problems compared to a replicated volume.</pre>

<pre>If you have captured a network trace, could you provide it to
me? You can use 'editcap -s0 ...' to copy only the relevant packets.
But, I dont have an issue to download a few GB either if that is easier
for you.</pre>

The data on the network seems ok (at least I haven't been able to identify any problem), so this must be a processing error on the client side. The last field in cut buffer of the sequentialized data corresponds to the length of the xdata field: 0x26. So at least 38 more byte should be present. My guess is that some corner case is hit reading fragmented network packets due to a high load. Debug information: Breakpoint 1, client3_3_readv_cbk (req=0x7f540e64106c, iov=0x7f540e6410ac, count=, myframe=0x7f54259a4d54) at client-rpc-fops.c:3021 3021 gf_msg (this->name, GF_LOG_ERROR, EINVAL, (gdb) print *iov $1 = {iov_base = 0x7f53e994e018, iov_len = 116} (gdb) x/116xb 0x7f53e994e018 0x7f53e994e018: 0x00 0x00 0x80 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x7f53e994e020: 0xa8 0xbf 0xa3 0xe0 0x5f 0x48 0x4c 0x1e</blockquote>
<pre>Hmm, I'm not sure how this is layed out in memory. 0x80 would be one of
first bytes in RPC payload, it signals 'last record' for the RPC
procedure, and we only send one record anyway. The four bytes combined
like (0x80 0x.. 0x.. 0x..) should be (0x80 | rpc-record-size). Reading
this in Wireshark from a .pcap.gz is much easier :)</pre>
<pre> </pre>
</blockquote>
<pre>The RPC header is already decoded here. The 116 bytes are only the content of the readv answer, as decoded by xdr_gfs3_read_rsp() function.</pre>
<pre> </pre>
<pre>This means that the first 4 bytes are the op_ret, next 4 are op_errno, followed by an encoded iatt (with gfid and ino number as the first fields). Then a size field and the length of a stream of bytes (corresponding to the encoded xdata).</pre>

<pre>The first 4 bytes of the dump correspond to the XID of the answer (0x8968). We can see that the answer comes from 193.109.174.232:49152. The output of the following command is attached:</pre>
<pre> </pre>
<pre># tshark -r tcpdump.pcap -n -V -Y "rpc.xid == 0x8968 and ip.addr == 193.109.174.232 and tcp.port == 49152"</pre>
<pre> </pre>
<pre>We can see that the answer is received in two TCP segments: one of 116 bytes and the other of 32836 bytes. Probably this is the source of the problem.</pre>
