When I reboot the server it will enter a grace period and reply to any OPEN requests from the client with NFSERR_GRACE. I used Wireshark to see that NFSERR_GRACE is returned 12 times before the open succeeds, so 13 OPEN requests total. When I send the command to forget all open owners I find that 13 open owners have been forgotten, but I only expecting to find 1. Is this what you would expect the server to do? > > > > Huh.

Makes sense. Yes, so it's the obvious problem--we create a new openowner early in the OPEN processing but don't clean it up on failure. I'm not sure how to fix it. By the time we fail later on, we've lost track of whether the openowner is one we created for this open or not. Well, wait, I suppose in the former case it will still be unconfirmed. So probably we should just free op_openowner on exit from open if it's unconfirmed. --b. -- 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
