Re: Help wanted: ENOCLK returned during lock test#2 in connectathon's test

Hi Trond,

many thanks for your reply.
In fact, the "rflag" in OP4_OPEN's reply is set to 6 = 4|2 = OPEN4_RESULT_LOCKTYPE_POSIX|OPEN4_RESULT_CONFIRM For some reason I do not understand, wireshark see OPEN4_RESULT_LOCKTYPE_POSIX as an 'unknown' flag and do not print it. Bug actually it seems like OPEN4_RESULT_LOCKTYPE_POSIX is set.

Your mail made me have a closer look to my implementation of OP4_OPEN and OP4_OPEN_CONFIRM in NFSv4.0 . Since the beginning (since I met this bug), I suspect something related to seqids : it does not occur in NFSv4.1 where seqids 's management is made in OP4_SEQUENCE, at the beginning of the request. So I ran lock test#2 on a kernel nfsd, capture the result and compared to what ganesha produces. I saw a difference: - when OP4_OPEN is invoked, the nfsd replies with a stateid containing seqid=0. This seqid is passed to OP4_OPEN_CONFIRM which confirms it and (if OK) replies with an updated stateid (seqid is now 1) - when ganesha does the same OP4_OPEN return a (unconfirmed) stateid whose seqid is equal to 1, then OP4_OPEN_CONFIRM set this seqid to 2 when confirming the stateid.

From your point of view, could this mess in seqid's management produce the bug that I see when running lock test#2 ?

   Regards

      Philippe

Hi,

as you may know (we may have met at Bake-A-Thon), I am working on NFS-Ganesha, a NFS server running in userspace. I currently face an issue when running cthon04 test suite, during the "lock step". Client is linux 3.1.0-rc4, server is nfs-ganesha compiled with FSAL_VFS support. Server is mounted via command "mount -overs=4.minorversion=1,lock <server>:<path> /mnt"

During the test#2 in "lock" tests, I got the following error:

    Creating parent/child synchronization pipes.

    Test #2 - Try to lock the whole file.
            Parent: 2.0  - F_TLOCK [               0,          ENDING]
    FAILED!
            Parent: **** Expected success, returned errno=37...
            Parent: **** Probably implementation error.

    ** PARENT pass 1 results: 0/0 pass, 0/0 warn, 1/1 fail (pass/total).

    **  CHILD pass 1 results: 0/0 pass, 0/0 warn, 0/0 fail (pass/total).


I made a wireshark capture of the packet (see attachement). Apparently, the client does 2 compounds, one for OP4_OPEN and a second to call OP4_OPEN_CONFIRM.

Hi Philippe,

As far as I can see from the pcap file, your server isn't setting the
OPEN4_RESULT_LOCKTYPE_POSIX flag in the OPEN reply, and so the client
can't support posix locking semantics. In that case, it will return
ENOLCK to all fcntl locking requests.

Cheers
  Trond
