v0.80.9 Firefly released

sage

This is a bugfix release for firefly. It fixes a performance regression in librbd, an important CRUSH misbehavior (see below), and several RGW bugs. We have also backported support for flock/fcntl locks to ceph-fuse and libcephfs.

We recommend that all Firefly users upgrade.

For more detailed information, see the complete changelog.

ADJUSTING CRUSH MAPS

  • This point release fixes several issues with CRUSH that trigger excessive data migration when adjusting OSD weights. These are most obvious when a very small weight change (e.g., a change from 0 to .01) triggers a large amount of movement, but the same set of bugs can also lead to excessive (though less noticeable) movement in other cases.

    However, because the bug may already have affected your cluster, fixing it may trigger movement back to the more correct location. For this reason, you must manually opt-in to the fixed behavior.

    In order to set the new tunable to correct the behavior:

    ceph osd crush set-tunable straw_calc_version 1

    Note that this change will have no immediate effect. However, from this point forward, any ‘straw’ bucket in your CRUSH map that is adjusted will get non-buggy internal weights, and that transition may trigger some rebalancing.

    You can estimate how much rebalancing will eventually be necessary on your cluster with:

    ceph osd getcrushmap -o /tmp/cm
crushtool -i /tmp/cm --num-rep 3 --test --show-mappings > /tmp/a 2>&1
crushtool -i /tmp/cm --set-straw-calc-version 1 -o /tmp/cm2
crushtool -i /tmp/cm2 --reweight -o /tmp/cm2
crushtool -i /tmp/cm2 --num-rep 3 --test --show-mappings > /tmp/b 2>&1
wc -l /tmp/a                          # num total mappings
diff -u /tmp/a /tmp/b | grep -c ^+    # num changed mappings

    Divide the total number of lines in /tmp/a with the number of lines changed. We've found that most clusters are under 10%.

    You can force all of this rebalancing to happen at once with::

    ceph osd crush reweight-all

    Otherwise, it will happen at some unknown point in the future when CRUSH weights are next adjusted.
