Chris Lu afcc491517 test: fix fd leak in the Samba DLM handoff test (promote xfail checks) (#9592)
test(mount): fix fd leak that deadlocked the DLM handoff check

The cross-mount handoff checks held a file open on mount 2 via fd 9 to
keep the distributed lock, then started the SMB writer in a background
subshell. The subshell inherited fd 9, so the SMB writer kept the file
open and waited on a lock held by its own descriptor; the put could
never complete, and the two checks were parked as expected-fail.

Close fd 9 in the subshell (9>&-) so the writer does not hold the file.
The waiter now acquires the freed lock within ~1s, so the two checks are
real assertions and the xfail machinery is gone.

Samba on FUSE integration test

Exports a SeaweedFS FUSE mount over SMB with Samba's smbd and drives it with smbclient, verifying that SMB file operations work correctly on top of the mount and that data stays consistent across both protocols.

What it checks

The functional battery in smb_tests.sh covers:

  • connecting to the share and listing the root
  • 1 MiB upload/download round-trip with content verification
  • subdirectory creation and writes into it
  • file rename
  • 64 MiB upload/download (exercises SeaweedFS chunk splitting)
  • recursive upload of a directory tree
  • cross-protocol consistency: files written over SMB appear on the FUSE mount with identical content, and files written directly on the FUSE mount are readable over SMB
  • deleting files and directory trees

The locking / concurrency battery in lock_tests.sh covers the harder cases a network-filesystem backend has to get right:

  • POSIX fcntl byte-range locking on the FUSE mount: a held exclusive lock denies a conflicting lock, allows a non-overlapping range, and is reacquirable after release (exercises the mount's SetLk/GetLk)
  • Distributed locking (-dlm): a file held open for writing on one mount blocks a writer on a second mount until it is released
  • Distributed-lock integrity: concurrent writers to the same file from two mounts leave exactly one intact payload, never a torn mix
  • Concurrency: parallel writers to distinct files all succeed

Both FUSE mounts are started with -dlm (distributed lock manager). The second mount (/mnt/seaweedfs2) exists only to contend with the smbd-backed mount in the distributed-locking tests; both see the same filer path, so .../share is the same data on each.

Note on DLM semantics: -dlm coordinates write access (one mount writes a file at a time) and guarantees writes are not torn. It does not guarantee which concurrent writer wins or instant cross-mount read convergence — the holder's buffered data is flushed on close, asynchronously to lock release. When a holder closes the file, a writer on another mount acquires the freed lock within ~1s and completes.

Layout

File Purpose
smb_tests.sh SMB functional battery. Shared by both runners.
lock_tests.sh SMB locking / concurrency battery. Shared by both runners.
smb.conf.template Samba config; placeholders are filled in at run time.
run.sh Local runner: weed mini + two -dlm mounts + smbd + both batteries, all as the current user on unprivileged ports.
entrypoint.sh Container entrypoint: starts two -dlm FUSE mounts and runs smbd.
run_inside_container.sh Runs both batteries inside the container against the local smbd.
Dockerfile Adds Samba to the chrislusf/seaweedfs:e2e image.
docker-compose.yml master + volume + filer + samba services.

Running locally

Requirements: weed on $PATH, fusermount3, and Samba's smbd / smbclient / smbpasswd (Debian/Ubuntu: apt-get install samba smbclient).

test/samba/run.sh

No sudo is needed: smbd runs as the current user on port 4450 and all state lives under a temp work dir that is cleaned up on exit.

Running with Docker

Mirrors the CI job. Requires /dev/fuse and SYS_ADMIN (provided in the compose file).

# build the base e2e image first (from the repo's docker/ dir)
docker compose -f test/samba/docker-compose.yml up --wait
docker compose -f test/samba/docker-compose.yml exec -T samba /run_inside_container.sh
docker compose -f test/samba/docker-compose.yml down -v

CI

.github/workflows/samba-integration.yml runs on changes to weed/mount/**, weed/filer/**, or test/samba/**. It builds the e2e image, builds the Samba harness image on top, brings up the cluster, runs the battery, and uploads server logs as artifacts.

Notes

  • The share disables Samba's DOS-attribute / xattr mapping and oplocks. The SeaweedFS FUSE mount does not implement that surface, and leaving it on produces NT_STATUS_NOT_SUPPORTED errors unrelated to data integrity.
  • The share path is a subdirectory of the mount (.../share) so the runner can verify SMB-side operations directly on the FUSE side.
