2015-08-18 08:43:41 Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre description [Impact] Users of multipath-tools on systems which exhibit both multipathed and non-multipathed drives or some USB devices (some USB devices may still be picked up by multipath-tools if multipath-capable). [Test case] - Boot on a system with multipathed disks with the previous version of multipath-tools - Upgrade to the new version; verify that /etc/multipath/wwids is created and contains all the right device WWIDs, and that 'sudo multipath -ll' has the same devices. - Reboot and verify that the system still boots correctly. - [udev] Using Fibre-Channel hardware: verify that multipath still behaves correctly for path degradation scenarios (see below). After rebooting, you should verify that /proc/mounts correctly lists the multipath device (/dev/mapper/*), and that /proc/swaps also lists any swap partitions that should be on a multipathed disk as a /dev/dm-* device. PATH DEGRADATION: -- This test requires fibre-channel hardware or another method to be able to disconnect paths to a drive. 1) verify that on disconnecting a path, it is properly detected as being in degraded mode by multipath-tools; and shows as such in 'multipath -ll'. 2) verify that on reconnection, the path shows up again as ready or OK in 'multipath -ll'. [Regression potential] Systems in complex setups mixing both multipathed and non-multipathed disks, or with particularly slow disk controllers may fail to boot or show delays in booting. Systems requiring a particular set of partitions to be available in early boot (past the typical installs on /, some may require /usr to be available for some daemons to load on boot) could fail to properly start up all the software on boot; these should be considered as regressions only if devices do not properly show up in 'sudo multipath -ll' output. Users seeing issues should preferrably include the output of 'sudo multipath -v4' to bug reports to help developers in debugging. --- Problem Description ====================== non-multpath disks are classified as multipath after the multipath-tools package is installed. ---uname output--- Linux uu04g1 3.16.0-21-generic #28-Ubuntu SMP Mon Oct 6 15:57:32 UTC 2014 ppc64le ppc64le ppc64le GNU/Linux Machine Type = Tuleta pKVM guest Steps to Reproduce ========================= 1) Create a guest with an unused, non-mpath disk (not the install disk) (a qemu img file is fine). 2) apt-get install multipath-tools. 3) multipath -ll. 4) Note that your file backed disks are showing up as mpath disks.

Users seeing issues should preferrably include the output of 'sudo multipath -v4' to bug reports to help developers in debugging. Udev rules have been changed in this case, because they interfere with the proper behavior of multipath 0.4.9 with the patches included as backported from 0.5.0; this has the potential to strongly impact the detection of change events on multipath devices; if path degradation or new device detection fails, this should be considered an important regression of multipath-tools. --- Problem Description ====================== non-multpath disks are classified as multipath after the multipath-tools package is installed. ---uname output--- Linux uu04g1 3.16.0-21-generic #28-Ubuntu SMP Mon Oct 6 15:57:32 UTC 2014 ppc64le ppc64le ppc64le GNU/Linux Machine Type = Tuleta pKVM guest Steps to Reproduce ========================= 1) Create a guest with an unused, non-mpath disk (not the install disk) (a qemu img file is fine). 2) apt-get install multipath-tools. 3) multipath -ll. 4) Note that your file backed disks are showing up as mpath disks.
