From: "J. Bruce Fields" <bfields@xxxxxxxxxx> This can't happen: - cl_time is zeroed only by unhash_client_locked, which is only ever called under both the state lock and the client lock. - every caller of renew_client() should have looked up a (non-expired) client and then called renew_client() all without dropping the state lock. - the only other caller of renew_client_locked() is release_session_client(), which first checks under the client_lock that the cl_time is nonzero. So make it clear that this is a bug, not something we handle. I can't quite bring myself to make this a BUG(), though, as there are a lot of renew_client() callers, and returning here is probably safer than a BUG(). We'll consider making it a BUG() after some more cleanup. Signed-off-by: J.
