Andreas,

Thanks for the reply.  I don't think I'm accessing the Lustre filefrag ( see below ).  Where would I normally find that installed? I downloaded the lustre-release git repository and can't find filefrag stuff to build my own.  Is that somewhere else?

filefrag is part of the e2fsprogs package ("rpm -qf $(which filefrag)"), so you need to download and install the Lustre-patched e2fsprogs from https://downloads.whamcloud.com/public/e2fsprogs/latest/


More info:

pfe27.jbauer2 334> cat /sys/fs/lustre/version
2.12.8_ddn12


You should really use "lctl get_param version", since the Lustre /proc and /sys files move around on occasion.

The PFL/FLR change for FIEMAP is not included in this version, but it _should_ be irrelevant because the file you are testing is using a plain layout, not PFL or FLR.


pfe27.jbauer2 335> filefrag -v /nobackupp17/jbauer2/dd.dat
Filesystem type is: bd00bd0
File size of /nobackupp17/jbauer2/dd.dat is 104857600 (25600 blocks of 4096 bytes)
/nobackupp17/jbauer2/dd.dat: FIBMAP unsupported

pfe27.jbauer2 336> which filefrag
/usr/sbin/filefrag

What version of Lustre are you using?  Does "filefrag -v" from a newer Lustre e2fsprogs (1.45.6.wc3+) work properly?

There was a small change to the Lustre FIEMAP handling in order to handle overstriped files and PFL/FLR files with many stripes and multiple components, since the FIEMAP "restart" mechanism was broken for files that had multiple objects on the same OST index.  See LU-11484 for details.  That change was included in the 2.14.0 release.

In essence, the fe_device field now encodes the absolute file stripe number in the high 16 bits of fe_device, and the device number in the low 16 bits (as it did before).   Since "filefrag -v" prints fe_device in hex and would show as "0x<stripe><device>" instead of "0x0000<device>", this was considered an acceptable tradeoff compared to other "less compatible" changes that would have been needed to implement PFL/FLR handling.

That said, I would have expected this change to result in your tool reporting very large values for fe_device (e.g. OST index + N * 65536), so returning all-zero values is somewhat unexpected.

Cheers, Andreas

Hi all,

I am trying to get my llfie program (which uses fiemap) going again, but now the struct fiemap_extent structures I get back from the ioctl call, all have fe_device=0.  The output from lfs getstripe indicates that the devices are not all 0.  The sum of the fe_length members adds up to the file size, so that is working.  The fe_physical members look reasonable also.  Has something changed?  This used to work.

Thanks, John
