Assuming a client has lost a delegation: If the server goes to recall
the delegation, an attempt is made to recall it twice separated by
a delay of 2 seconds. Both times, the client will state that it
doesn't have the delegation via -EBADHANDLE or -NFS4ERR_BAD_STATEID.
1.) Any race between a delegation grant and a recall has been
presumably avoided by the delay and second attempt.
2.) The client doesn't have the delegation.
3.) The backchannel is responsive.
After these two attempts fail, the laundromat will eventually revoke
them and add these delegations to cl_revoked. This results in another
attempt to get the client to return the delegation via
TEST/FREE STATEID. This will also fail with no means
of resolution, and will cause the server and client to loop
indefinitely, as the client has nothing to give the server to satisfy it.
The changes here are to establish a safe way to recover by:
If the client has responded with -EBADHANDLE or -NFS4ERR_BAD_STATEID:
1.) Not failing the backchannel after two attempts at a recall.
2.) At the time revocation would normally occur: destroying the
delegation on the server side.
