The expectation here is that once we find an open context with a stateid that needs to be reclaimed or recovered, we recover _all_ the state associated with that stateid. IOW: the expectation is that we first look at the open state, and (depending on whether this is a write delegation or a read delegation) run through a set of calls to nfs4_open_recover_helper() that will recover all outstanding open state for this file. We then iterate through all the lock stateids for the file and recover those. So why are we holding the open context, and not just pinning the stateid while we perform the recovery? The main reason is to ensure that we also pin the path. The stateid holds a reference to the inode, but recovery can require us to perform an OPEN based on path (e.g. when using NFS4_OPEN_CLAIM_DELEGATE_CUR). Hence the utility of the open context, which carries a reference to a struct dentry. > > On Fri, Sep 28, 2018 at 4:38 PM Trond Myklebust < > trondmy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > > > On Fri, 2018-09-28 at 16:19 -0400, Olga Kornievskaia wrote: > > > On Fri, Sep 28, 2018 at 4:07 PM Trond Myklebust < > > > trondmy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > > > > > > > On Fri, 2018-09-28 at 15:55 -0400, Olga Kornievskaia wrote: > > > > > On Fri, Sep 28, 2018 at 3:10 PM Olga Kornievskaia < > > > > > aglo@xxxxxxxxx > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > wrote: > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Wait, why are we suppose to reclaim the open state when we > > > > > have a > > > > > valid open stateid?
