Apologies for the earlier context-less ping 🙏. Here's the
situation:
I have been tracking the latest progress on fixing an issue
involving a deadlock in the CIFS write file process caused by
a network interruption. This problem affects LTS Linux kernel
versions 5.4.y through 6.6.y. The reason it is limited to LTS
versions is that the issue was avoided in the mainline 6.9
version due to the netns-based code restructuring in the CIFS.
In my previous email, I provided the code call flow of the issue,
as well as the invasive method to modify the kernel for reproduction.
If there is anything else I can provide to help move this
forward, please let me know.
Thank you for your time and support!
Best regards,
Wang Zhaolong
