From: Andy Adamson <andros@xxxxxxxxxx> The rsc cache code operates in a read_lock/write_lock environment. Changes to a cache entry should use the provided rsc_update routine which takes the write_lock. The current code sets the expiry_time and the CACHE_NEGATIVE flag without taking the write_lock as it does not call rsc_update. Without this patch, while cache_clean sees the entries to be removed, it does not remove the rsc_entries. This is because rsc_update sets other fields in the entry to properly trigger cache_clean. Cache_clean takes the write_lock to remove expired or invalid entries from the cache_list and calls cache_put on the entry. Looking at sunrpc_cache_update, what we want is to invalidate the cache entry, so that it is direclty replaced which means that update_rsc is called. We pass in a new zero'ed rsc cache entry to rsc_update with an expiry_time set to 0 along with the invalidatedcache entry to be destroyed. The cache_put at the end of svcauth_gss_accept processing drops the reference count to 1 which allows the cache_put called by cache_clean to result in a call to rsc_put and rsc_free to reap the entry after it has been removed from the cache_list under the write_lock.
