Current NFSv4 implementation does not map EILSEQ into any known NFSv4 error code which causes problems in some use cases. In my case I observed that if filesystem returns EILSEQ, the NFS share will begin I/O erroring until it's able to recover (If there are handles open to the files in the share, I/O errors will continue until they are closed after which the share recovers after small period of time). > > Given that widely used ntfs-3g FUSE module also returns EILSEQ on the same case (I tested this) I would argue that a fix should be done for upstream especially since RFC5661 clearly defines that invalid UTF-8 sequence should map into NFSERR_INVAL, exact quote: "Where the client sends an invalid UTF-8 string, the server should return NFS4ERR_INVAL (see Table 5)". The NFS client will then happily map that straight into EINVAL for you...
