I just upgraded a server from 2.2.8 to -current (991201 kernel) and am
seeing some NFS corruption. It looks like byte ranges are getting
zeroed out by the client (or not getting written at all, and the server
at the other end is filling with zeros?). I've seen it while writing
to both a Solaris 2.6 server (NFSv3) and a Netware NFS server (NFSv2),
so I'm pretty sure it's the client causing the problem.
Details:
4.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 4.0-CURRENT #2: Thu Dec 2 17:07:57 CST 1999
CPU: Dual Pentium III/Xeon 600 Mhz
RAM: 256MB
NIC: fxp0, full-duplex 100mbit
NFS mount point: /mnt/filesystem/u01, mounting a Solaris 2.6 box also
with a 100mbit full-duplex net connection, 8K NFS blocksize,
UDP, via amd.
My testcase is a 7-gig text file that I'm copying around with the
following commands:
$ cd /net/remotesystem/u01
$ split -b 1000000000 /u01/bigfile.txt file
creating seven 1-gig files fileaa .. fileag (running at a nice rate of
5-6 MB/sec :). I then run "blankcheck" (attached) to scan the file for
runs of zeroes, and get the following:
$ for i in filea{a,b,c,d,e,f} ; do echo $i ; ./blankcheck < $i ; done
fileaa
fileab
168173568-168179199(5632)
384966656-384972287(5632)
385753088-385758719(5632)
( snip 156 lines just like the above, all ranges 5632 bytes in size )
464068608-464074239(5632)
464723968-464729599(5632)
465248256-465253887(5632)
fileac
203448320-203451391(3072)
filead
fileae
372097024-372103167(6144)
fileaf
561774592-561778175(3584)
$
All the zeroed out blocks start on an 8k NFS boundary, and I have
verified that the rest of the 8k block has the correct data in it.
Each corrupted block is always a multiple of 512 bytes long (so far
multiples are 6, 7, 11, and 12).
On this example run, each file either has no corruption at all, or has
corruption with all the zeroed out ranges the same size. Dunno if this
matters, but it's interesting.
If I run without nfsiod, or copy from a remote NFS mount to a remote
NFS mount, the corruption goes way down but still happens. I got only
one corrupted block in my 7-gig test run in each of those test cases.
I'm afraid I don't know much about the internal workings of NFS, so I'm
hoping my description is enough to pinpoint the problem.
