Bug in drbd 9.1.5 on CentOS 7

[izyk]

Hello. I don't sure it's drbd problem, but, after I upgrade packages kmod-drbd90-9.1.4 -> kmod-drbd90-9.1.5 from elrepo. I have а error in my message on a md raid.

My block stack is: mdraid -> lvm -> drbd -> vdo -> lvm

I have trouble only with raid devices with chunks (usually 512K size) raid0, raid10. With raid1 no problem. Please, could you give me a hint where could be the error?

After this, the primary worked in diskless mode. If primary on raid1, all works normal, and secondary UpToDate, even if the secondary is on a raid0.

drbd90-utils-9.19.1-1.el7.elrepo.x86_64 kmod-drbd90-9.1.5-1.el7_9.elrepo.x86_64

I don't try revert to kmod-9.1.4 yet, but with previous kernel and 9.1.5 I get the same.

I can confirm this problem with kmod-drbd90-9.1.5-1.el7_9.elrepo.x86_64 with both kernel-3.10.0-1160.53.1 and kernel-3.10.0-1160.49.1. Also that it occurs only for raid10 mdraid devices. The previous 9.1.4 kmod works with both of those kernels plus the latest kernel-3.10.0-1160.59.1. No errors are logged for the raid10 device when using the 9.1.4 kmod, only when using the 9.1.5 version.

Does this issue also occur with 9.1.6? Does it occur when you build DRBD from a release tarball instead of using the elrepo packages?

TLDR : DRBD 9.1.7 NO-GO on CentOS7 if using raid10 md arrays for the underlying drbd disk.

Just want to state I have the exact same issue. My cluster failed after upgrading from 9.0.x(don't know the exact version) to 9.1.7. Running on 3.10.0-1160.66.1.el7.x86_64 kernel. Get this issue in syslog when using an raid10 MD array for drbd (works with raid1 or linear. Also works if running directly on the disks, aka no md raid):

I also tried compiling it from sources, same issue.

Tried on Rocky Linux 8, works like a charm. I could not found a way to sign the kernel module on Rocky 8, so I disabled UEFI secure boot signing like it's stated here: https://askubuntu.com/questions/762254/why-do-i-get-required-key-not-available-when-install-3rd-party-kernel-modules

Writing this in case anyone encounters same issues as me and hope they will not lose 20 hours of debugging as I did.

I'm still getting the "make_request bug: can't convert block across chunks or bigger than 512k" with Centos 7 kernel 3.10.0-1160.71.1 using kernel module from DRBD 9.1.7 when the backing store is an LVM partition where the PV is a md RAID device. Also, the 9.1.7 kmod has the same error with several previous versions of the Centos kernel. By contrast, the 9.1.4 kmod works with all Centos kernels since at least 3.10.0-1160.49.1.

Btw, other LVs in that same VG (also on the same md RAID10 PV), have no issues. Only the LVs being used as DRBD backing storage and only with DRBD > 9,1,4. Something in newer DRBD versions kmod breaks md devices. I see no LVM messages, only the md error, and of course that leads to the DRBD messages re. moving from UpToDate to Failed to Diskless.

[Jaybus2]

Update: This issue still persists in 9.1.12. The issue always starts with a md raid10 error: md/raid10:md200: make_request bug: can't convert block across chunks or bigger than 512k 33530432 256 It does not happen when the storage for the DRBD device is on md raid1, only for md raid10. I am not setup to test any other raid levels.

Info on the DRBD device (and underlying LVM and md raid10 devices) causing the issue for me is below. Note that other LVs on this same raid10 PV that are locally mounted or used for iSCSI (ie. not used for DRBD backing storage) work just fine. Also note that the raid10 device chink size is 512k

This bug still persists in 9.1.13, with a caveat. As of 9.1.13 it works with a md raid10 backing device as long as the DRBD device is secondary and resync works at startup. However, when the DRBD device is made primary, the same errors persists. Tested on Centos 7 with latest kernel 3.10.0-1160.83.1.el7. Kernel log messages:

I faced similiar issue with 9.1.16. The backing device is md raid0 device for my case. After I detached the device from the primary node and attached again, then the same error occurs.
