This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled NFS: Add sequence_priviliged_ops for nfs4_proc_sequence() to the linux-3.5.y-queue branch of the 3.5.y.z extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.5.y-queue If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.5.y.z tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Herton ------ From 5e5195cad4f77a11c34617acb65be18489096e0b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Bryan Schumaker <bjschuma@netapp.com> Date: Mon, 12 Nov 2012 16:55:38 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] NFS: Add sequence_priviliged_ops for nfs4_proc_sequence() commit 6bdb5f213c4344324f600dde885f25768fbd14db upstream. If I mount an NFS v4.1 server to a single client multiple times and then run xfstests over each mountpoint I usually get the client into a state where recovery deadlocks. The server informs the client of a cb_path_down sequence error, the client then does a bind_connection_to_session and checks the status of the lease. I found that bind_connection_to_session sets the NFS4_SESSION_DRAINING flag on the client, but this flag is never unset before nfs4_check_lease() reaches nfs4_proc_sequence(). This causes the client to deadlock, halting all NFS activity to the server. nfs4_proc_sequence() is only called by the state manager, so I can change it to run in privileged mode to bypass the NFS4_SESSION_DRAINING check and avoid the deadlock.
