Famous last words, I guess. It all returned overnight. But this time it's different from the past couple. 0xffffffff813aa8bb is in nfs4_do_open (/home/green/bk/linux/fs/nfs/nfs4proc.c:2482). 2477 d_drop(dentry); 2478 alias = d_exact_alias(dentry, state->inode); 2479 if (!alias) 2480 alias = d_splice_alias(igrab(state->inode), dentry); 2481 /* d_splice_alias() can't fail here - it's a non-directory */ So it appears the dentry that was negative turned positive in the middle of d_exact_alias call… and also despite us doing d_drop(dentry), it's also already hashed? If this can happen in the middle of our operations here, same thing presumably can happen in the other place we patched up in nfs_atomic_open - we do d_drop there, but by the time we get into d_splice_alias it's now all hashed again by some racing thread, that would explain some of the rarer earlier crashes I had in -rc1 after the initial fix. I wonder if it could be a remote-fs specific open vs open race? Say we have atomic open for parent1/file1, this locks parent1 and proceeds to lookup file1. Now before the lookup commences, some other thread moves file1 to parent2 and yet some other thread goes to open parent2/file1. Eventually it all converges with two threads trying to instantiate file1, if we get it "just wrong" then a clash like what we see can happen, no? Hm, I guess then both opens would have their own dentry and it's only inode that's shared, so that cannot be it. How can anything find a dentry we presumably just allocated and hash it while we are not done with it, I wonder? Also I wonder if all of this is somehow related to this other problem I am having where drop_nlink reports going into negative territory on rename() call, I hit this twice already and I guess I just need to convert that to BUG_ON instead for a closer examination.
