"Every NFS version 3 protocol client can also potentially be a
server, and remote and local mounted file systems can be
freely mixed. This leads to some problems when a client
travels down the directory tree of a remote file system and
reaches the mount point on the server for another remote file
system. Allowing the server to follow the second remote mount
would require loop detection, server lookup, and user
revalidation. Instead, both NFS version 2 protocol and NFS
version 3 protocol implementations do not typically let
clients cross a server's mount point. When a client does a
LOOKUP on a directory on which the server has mounted a file
system, the client sees the underlying directory instead of
the mounted directory.
For example, if a server has a file system called /usr and
mounts another file system on /usr/src, if a client mounts
/usr, it does not see the mounted version of /usr/src. A
client could do remote mounts that match the server's mount
points to maintain the server's view. In this example, the
client would also have to mount /usr/src in addition to /usr,
even if they are from the same server."
and now we do not set the crossmnt ,so that we saw is the underlying directory .
the nfs mount have no relation to ext4 mountpoint, it can be umounted maybe better.
can we add some limits to let it do not enter the nfsd_cross_mnt() in nfsd_lookup_dentry()if the crossmnt is not set?
best wishes!

Hi all:
we have a test about nfs on linux 4.11.
the detailed process as follow:
server ip:9.81.231.141 client
mount -t ext4 /dev/vdb /home/nfs/aa
mount -t nfs -o sync,tcp,vers=3,noac,timeo=70,retrans=3 9.81.231.141:/home/nfs /tmp/aa/
ls /tmp/aa
umount /home/nfs/aa
This is as expected. There's actually no guarantee you'll be able to
unmount the filesystem till nfsd is stopped (even unexporting won't
always do the job).
--b.
the umount remind "target is busy".
so we analyze the code , a reference count which is named "mnt_count" add 1 in rqst_exp_get_by_name() after execute the "ls" order.
the detailed call is nfsd3_proc_lookup->nfsd_lookup->nfsd_lookup_dentry->nfsd_cross_mnt->rqst_exp_get_by_name->exp_get_by_name->svc_export_lookup->sunrpc_cache_lookup->svc_export_init->path_get
the reference count can't be subtracted untill we stop nfsd or tcp idle timeout on server. the system call the cache_flush() to subtract the count.
then we can umount successfully.
do dou have some patches can umount immediately or some suggestions?
