Alrighty.

[OK] lvm.conf device blacklist
[OK] multipath.conf, sans fix I already pointed out
You can ignore that FW blurb, it's just a script that shouldn't be so noisy.

failover logs *look good*

and according to udev, note that I re-sequenced the grep and grouped by
mpathX.

This all looks OK, you can see the paths count down and stop at the right count.
The way multibus works is a lot like network bonding link aggregation, io is
simply steered down the remaining paths. What might have happened is the
LVs backed by this mpath device somehow got deactivated and that's why the
filesystem can't write back.

Try this for me please. Shutdown those paths and keep them down, then
after about a minute, run.
# lvs -o lv_attr
 
We should see "w" and "a" for every volume, if not, that's the problem.

Also, while in the "failed state", see if you can do a dd read from one
of the mpaths? like dd if=/dev/mapper/mpath0 of=/dev/null count=10.
If that works, try the same thing with a random sd device.

I don't see anything amiss in the strace. The SG ioctls look OK and
the ioctls made to DM make sense.

We want to determine at which level that sending block ios is hung up.

Title:
  Cannot read superblock after FC multipath failover

Status in “multipath-tools” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  This might not be multipath-tools, but it's the likeliest candidate.

  If fibre channel connectivity is disrupted on an active path, I can
  see the multipath daemon rejuggling active paths as expected.  However
  instead of utilising a new path, the server continues trying active
  i/o down the same path until it fails, and the superblock on the lun
  is marked unreadable.

  The luns simply cannot be remounted even after the paths are
  recovered.  However, after a simple reboot, the luns are again
  readable _regardless_ of the visible path.  (Eg I shut the active FC
  port then rebooted, and the storage was mountable per normal over a
  different path).

  I've replicated this behaviour using both xfs and ext4 filesystems, on
  multiple different luns presented to the server.

  The luns are visible over four FC paths, and the /dev/mapper/mpathX
  identity is used as the physical volume for an LVM2 volume group, into
  which the logical volume(s) and filesystem are created.

  Description:	Ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS
  Release:	10.04

  As you can see here, the /dev/test and /dev/test2 volume groups are
  both active, yet showing i/o errors after a pathing fail.

  The dmesg output is very instructive, but still doesn't help with the
  root cause per se.  I set the scsi-timeouts nice and high (90 seconds)
  to accommodate any potential delays in path failover.  The path checks
  (test unit ready/TUR) occur about every 20 seconds.

  See below:

  And then:

  This is very disturbing as it means that the multipathing is not in
  fact working at all - You can see that the I/O errors are pointing at
  'dm-3' rather than the mpath associated device, but thats normal as
  the logical volume appears in that place.

  The filesystems are healthy, when you reboot the server and check them
  there are zero errors.  There's something wrong with the way that the
  pathing failover is being handled, but I'm not sure where I'd find the
  ultimate root cause of this.

  This segfault occurs after the above issues have already manifested:
