Frequently Asked Questions

1

Which systems are most likely to encounter this issue?

Linux systems using the Ceph filesystem can encounter it when the client has valid directory leases, no capability pressure to reclaim dentries, and lease walks exhaust their scan budget without finding reclaimable entries.

2

What is the observable impact of the affected behavior?

The capability reclaim worker can immediately requeue itself repeatedly, consuming CPU while making no reclaim progress. Valid directory leases may also be repeatedly moved in the list and have their timestamps refreshed, preventing them from aging out.
