Before session gets recovered, client > continues to return error. Hi Zheng, I don't think it's about whether that happens instantly or not. In the example from [1], the first "ls" would fail even if issued minutes after the session reject message and the reconnect. From the user's POV it is well after the automatic recovery promised by recover_session=clean.

It _does_ detect blacklisting -- notice that I wrote "after the session reject message and the reconnect". Thanks, Ilya

I'm open to other ways of smoothing this over. If we end up with a small window where errors can occur, then so be it, but I think we can probably do better than we have now.

It's likely because that > client didn't detect it's blacklisted. > I should have described this better -- let me explain: It did detect that it was blocklisted (almost immediately) because the MDS shuts down the session. I think it immediately sends a SESSION_REJECT message when blacklisting and indicates that it has been blocklisted. At that point the session is CEPH_MDS_SESSION_REJECTED. The next MDS calls through would see that it was in that state and would return -EACCES. Eventually, the delayed work runs and then the session gets reconnected, and further calls proceed normally. So, I think this is just a timing thing for the most part. The workqueue job runs on a delay of round_jiffies_relative(HZ * 5);, and that's long enough for the disruption to be noticeable. While this was happening during 'ls' for Ilya, it could happen in anything that involves sending a request to the MDS. I think we want to prevent new opens from erroring out during this window if we can. The real question is whether this is safe in all cases. For instance, if the call that we're idling is dependent on holding certain caps, then it's possible we will have lost them when we got REJECTED. Hmm...so that means patch 4/4 is probably wrong.

Other MClientRequest calls don't require that the client hold any caps, AFAICT, so idling them until we can establish a new session should be OK, no? > > Hmm...so that means patch 4/4 is probably wrong.
