Looking at https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/11/8/1086 for the actual oops... It doesn't remind me of any known issue. And I don't see how we can call vfs_statfs() with a bad path: nfsd4_encode_getattr would have to have been called with nfserr 0 and ga_fhp->fh_export bad. Looking at nfsd4_proc_compound, I can't see how we could get there in the op->status == 0 case without the fh_verify() in nfsd4_getattr having succeeded and assigned the result to ga_fhp. So either I'm overlooking something or the bug's elsewhere. It sounds like you're varying *only* the server version, so there's not much chance that this could be triggered by changes in client behavior? --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
