RHBA-2019:1274 - glusterfs bug fix update

Synopsis

glusterfs bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory None

Topic

Updated glusterfs packages that fix various bugs are now available for Red Hat Gluster Storage 3.4 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.

Description

Red Hat Gluster Storage is 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 fixes the following bug:

  • Previously, when bricks were down, files could be opened with O_TRUNC flag. Once the bricks are functioning, any operation that modifies the file using file descriptor leads to open-fd heal. Open-fd heal opens the files on the brick that was back up. Now, if open-fd heal is performed for a file that was opened with O_TRUNC, a truncate operation is triggered on the file. As Truncate operation happens as part of an operation that already took a lock, it doesn't take an explicit lock leading to NULL lock structure. This operation eventually leads to a crash when the NULL lock structure is de-referenced. As a fix, in open-fd heal the O_TRUNC flag is ignored as the truncate operation will be covered in data-heal of that file. (BZ#1709174)

Users of Red Hat Gluster Storage are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fixes this bug.
