I could see something related to that bug might be happening, but we're not 
seeing the "clock skew" or "signal: Hangup" messages in our logs.

One reason that this cluster might be running into this problem is that we 
appear to have a script that is gathering stats for collectd which is running 
'ceph pg dump' every 16-17 seconds.  I guess you could say we're stress testing 
that code path fairly well...  :)

After we upgraded from Jewel (10.2.10) to Luminous (12.2.5) we started seeing a 
problem where the new ceph-mgr would sometimes hang indefinitely when doing 
commands like 'ceph pg dump' on our largest cluster (~1,300 OSDs).  The rest of 
our clusters (10+) aren't seeing the same issue, but they are all under 600 
OSDs each.  Restarting ceph-mgr seems to fix the issue for 12 hours or so, but 
usually overnight it'll get back into the state where the hang reappears.  At 
first I thought it was a hardware issue, but switching the primary ceph-mgr to 
another node didn't fix the problem.



I've increased the logging to 20/20 for debug_mgr, and while a working dump 
looks like this:

A failed dump call doesn't show up at all.  The "mgr.server handle_command 
prefix=pg dump" log entry doesn't seem to even make it to the logs.

This could be a manifestation of
https://tracker.ceph.com/issues/23460, as the "pg dump" path is one of
the places where the pgmap and osdmap locks are taken together.

Deadlockyness aside, this code path could use some improvement so that
both locks aren't being held unnecessarily, and so that we aren't
holding up all other accesses to pgmap while doing a dump.
