Haven't thought it through, but it sounds cleaner to rebind the session (or reset it if the server went away) in the forechannel context. I wonder if it would be acceptable to simply drop the backchannel request, and have the forechannel reestablish the connection (on a retransmission)? > but > I'm still concerned that using this path for sending the callback > replies is wrong. The mainline RPC call_transmit() is already able to deal with RPC transmissions that don't expect a reply. This is pretty similar to sending a reply, so we're leveraging the existing rpc_xprt. One alternative could be to construct an svc_xprt for the backchannel and use svc_send() for the reply. I wonder if it's really a better approach since we already have the rpc_xprt available. > > > > The "Callback slot table overflowed" message means we couldn't obtain a > > pre-allocated rpc_rqst to process the callback.

We're correctly closing the connection, but doesn't seem like we're acquiring the lock, as it is done in xprt_force_disconnect(). xprt_force_disconnect() wasn't around when I first added the autoclose code in xs_tcp_read_callback(). > > > > > This leads me to believe the server exceeded the number of outstanding > > requests allowed on the backchannel (slot count of one at the moment), > > the new request caused us to close the connection and pulled the rug > > from under the callback service.

I'm suggesting the unexpected request closed the connection, and was dropped on the floor by xs_tcp_read_callback(). After the first request was processed, it encountered a closed connection during the reply. This is why the original request dies with ENOTCONN. I'll take a look at the svc_send() path using svc_xprt. Though I think your proposed patch to not force a rebind in the backchannel is appropriate. I guess I'm pleading to Trond to reconsider the Big NACK :-) - ricardo > > > > > Is this reproducible? > > Not yet. > > Benny > > > > > - ricardo > > > > > >> Trond > >> ... > >> -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-nfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
