[Bug 1843085] Please test proposed package

[James Page]

Hello Kellen, or anyone else affected,

Accepted ceph into queens-proposed. The package will build now and be
available in the Ubuntu Cloud Archive in a few hours, and then in the
-proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. To enable the -proposed
repository:

  sudo add-apt-repository cloud-archive:queens-proposed
  sudo apt-get update

Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag
from verification-queens-needed to verification-queens-done. If it does
not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change
the tag to verification-queens-failed. In either case, details of your
testing will help us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in
advance!

  Backport of zero-length gc chain fixes to Luminous

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Cancelling large S3/Swift object puts may result in garbage collection entries with zero-length chains. Rados gateway garbage collection does not efficiently process and clean up these zero-length chains.

  A large number of zero-length chains will result in rgw processes
  quickly spinning through the garbage collection lists doing very
  little work. This can result in abnormally high cpu utilization and op
  workloads.

  [Test Case]
  Disable garbage collection:
  `juju config ceph-radosgw config-flags='{"rgw": {"rgw enable gc threads": "false"}}'`

  Repeatedly kill 256MB object put requests for randomized object names.
  `for i in {0.. 1000}; do f=$(mktemp); fallocate -l 256M $f; s3cmd put $f s3://test_bucket &; pid=$!; sleep $((RANDOM % 3)); kill $pid; rm $f; done`

  Capture omap detail. Verify zero-length chains were created:
  `for i in $(seq 0 ${RGW_GC_MAX_OBJS:-32}); do rados -p default.rgw.log --namespace gc listomapvals gc.$i; done`

  Raise radosgw debug levels, and enable garbage collection:
  `juju config ceph-radosgw config-flags='{"rgw": {"rgw enable gc threads": "false"}}' loglevel=20`

  Verify zero-lenth chains are processed correctly by inspecting radosgw
  logs.

  [Regression Potential]
  Backport has been accepted into the Luminous release stable branch upstream.

  [Other Information]
  This issue has been reported upstream [0] and was fixed in Nautilus alongside a number of other garbage collection issues/enhancements in pr#26601 [1]:
  * adds additional logging to make future debugging easier.
  * resolves bug where the truncated flag was not always set correctly in gc_iterate_entries
  * resolves bug where marker in RGWGC::process was not advanced
  * resolves bug in which gc entries with a zero-length chain were not trimmed
  * resolves bug where same gc entry tag was added to list for deletion multiple times

  These fixes were slated for back-port into Luminous and Mimic, but the
  Luminous work was not completed because of a required dependency: AIO
  GC [2]. This dependency has been resolved upstream, and is pending SRU
  verification in Ubuntu packages [3].
