We've observed an NFS server shrink the TCP window and then reset the TCP connection as part of a HA failover. When the connection has TLS, often the NFS client will hang indefinitely in this stack: wait_woken+0x70/0x80 wait_on_pending_writer+0xe4/0x110 [tls] tls_sk_proto_close+0x368/0x3a0 [tls] inet_release+0x54/0xb0 __sock_release+0x48/0xc8 sock_close+0x20/0x38 __fput+0xe0/0x2f0 __fput_sync+0x58/0x70 xs_reset_transport+0xe8/0x1f8 [sunrpc] xs_tcp_shutdown+0xa4/0x190 [sunrpc] xprt_autoclose+0x68/0x170 [sunrpc] process_one_work+0x180/0x420 worker_thread+0x258/0x368 kthread+0x104/0x118 ret_from_fork+0x10/0x20 This hang prevents the client from closing the socket and reconnecting to the server. Because xs_nospace() elevates sk_write_pending, and sk_sndtimeo is MAX_SCHEDULE_TIMEOUT, tls_sk_proto_close is never able to complete its wait for pending writes to the socket. For this case where we are resetting the transport anyway, we don't expect the socket to ever have write space, so fix this by simply clearing the sock's sndtimeo under the sock's lock.
