"double list_add" can happen in init_net when legacy signal in lockd was used. It should not happen during usual extending of existing grace period, because restart_grace() calls locks_end_grace() before set_grace_period() but it can race with start of lockd_up_net() in init_net. I'm agree: we do not have any bugs in this scenario, all should work correctly. However I would like to keep WARN to properly detect lost locks_end_grace()/ cancel_delayed_work(). If you worry about real false positive and do not worry about abstract future troubles in init_net, I can move WARN under (net != &init_net) check. However I would like to keep this warning here. On the other hand if you disagree and still believe that WARN is not required here I'm ready to agree with your original patch version. -- 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
