I forgot to mention that removing other files seems to "fix" the problem, so it does not seem to be spefically the new file itself that is the cause. > > I captured the "ls 3.14 | head" sequence on both the client and the server, and put the tcpudmp files here: http://hoho.duckdns.org/linux/ - let me know if that helped. On a quick skim, the server's READDIR responses look correct. The entry btrfs-20141216-fix-a-warning-of-qgroup-account-on-shared-extents.patch is returned in frame 53 (with complete reassembled reply displayed by wireshark in frame 63). You could double-check for me--just run "wireshark nfs-server.pcap", look for packets labeled "Reply ... READDIR", and expand out the READDIR op and directory listing. I don't see anything obviously wrong. It's interesting that there's only one LOOKUP in the trace, for btrfs-20 (returning, not suprisingly, NFS4ERR_NOENT). If the client failed to parse that entry for some reason, then maybe in addition to getting the filename wrong it also failed to get the attributes, triggering the extra lookup/getattr. > Meanwhile I'll try older/plain (unpatched) kernels. So far reverting the client to vanilla 3.18.1 or 3.14.27 has not helped.. I'm a little unclear: when you said "All this is on freshly baked 3.18.1", are you describing the client, or the server, or both? --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
