Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated glusterfs packages that fix several bugs are now available for Red Hat Gluster Storage 3.3 Update 1 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.

Description

Red Hat Gluster Storage is a software only scale-out storage solution that
provides flexible and affordable unstructured data storage. It unifies data
storage and infrastructure, increases performance, and improves
availability and manageability to meet enterprise-level storage challenges.

This advisory addresses critical bugs related to memory leaks and fixes
the following bugs:

• Executing gluster volume set operations on volumes from gluster CLI
  caused a significant memory leak in glusterd process. The memory leak
  issues have been fixed in this release. (BZ#1526363)
  
• Previously, while executing a series of gluster commands like volume
  create/start/stop/delete, glusterd process' memory footprint increased.
  In a scalable environment where multiple volumes are created, deleted,
  and recreated led to high glusterd memory consumption. With this update,
  the identified memory leaks in glusterd are fixed. (BZ#1526365, BZ#1526374)
  
• Executing multiple volume commands concurrently on the same volume,
  from different peers of the trusted storage pool, results in one of
  the glusterd processes from the same pool moving to the locked state.
  Any volume management operations performed on the same volume fail until
  the glusterd service is restarted on the node where glusterd is in
  transaction locked state. This release introduces a default transaction
  lock timeout of 3 minutes. Any glusterd process reaching the locked state
  will remain there for 3 minutes. Any transactions made now execute
  successfully after this timeout period. (BZ#1526372)
  
• The portmap entry allocation that glusterd maintains for each of its
  brick is cleaned up on a graceful shutdown of the respective brick
  processes. When a brick process was killed through SIGKILL signal or
  crashed, glusterd did not clean up the respective portmap entry allocation
  which could result in two portmap allocations for the same brick when the
  brick process was restarted. glusterd reports with a stale port to the
  client, resulting failure in connection. With this fix, the stale port
  entry is removed even for a brick crash or SIGKILL event of a brick
  process. The client now successfully connects to the brick after the brick
  is restarted. (BZ#1526371)
  
• When processes that use a large number of POSIX locks, like Samba,
  were used in combination with the gluster clear-locks command, a memory
  leak created high memory consumption on brick processes. This sometimes
  triggered OOM killer on brick processes. The lock translator has been
  updated to correct this issue and fix the memory leak. (BZ#1526377)
  

Users of glusterfs are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix these bugs.

• BZ - 1527147 - [GSS] [Regression] glusterfs threads consuming swap space until it runs out
• BZ - 1527772 - remove ExclusiveArch directive from SPEC file
• BZ - 1530217 - Brick multiplexing: glustershd fails to start on a volume force start after a brick is down
