In 2006 Trond Myklebust added support for the FL_ACCESS flag, commit 01c3b861cd77 ("NLM,NFSv4: Wait on local locks before we put RPC calls on the wire"), as a result of which _nfs4_proc_setlk() began to execute _nfs4_do_setlk() with modified request->fl_flag where FL_ACCESS flag was set. It was not important not till 2015, when commit c69899a17ca4 ("NFSv4: Update of VFS byte range lock must be atomic with the stateid update") added do_vfs_lock call into nfs4_locku_done(). nfs4_locku_done() in this case uses calldata->fl of nfs4_unlockdata. It is copied from struct nfs4_lockdata, which in turn uses the fl_flag copied from the request->fl_flag provided by _nfs4_do_setlk(), i.e. with FL_ACCESS flag set. FL_ACCESS flag is removed in nfs4_lock_done() for non-cancelled case. however rpc task can be cancelled earlier. As a result flock_lock_inode() can be called with request->fl_type F_UNLCK and fl_flags with FL_ACCESS flag set. Such request is processed incorectly. Instead of expected search and removal of exisiting flocks it jumps to "find_conflict" label and can call locks_insert_block() function. On kernels before 2018, (i.e. before commit 7b587e1a5a6c ("NFS: use locks_copy_lock() to copy locks.")) it caused a BUG in __locks_insert_block() because copied fl had incorrectly linked fl_block. On new kernels all lists are properly initialized and no BUG occur, however any any case, such a call does nothing useful. If I understand correctly locks_lock_inode_wait(F_UNLCK) call is required to revert locks_lock_inode_wait(F_LCK) request send from nfs4_lock_done(). An additional F_UNLCK request is dangerous, because of it can remove flock set not by canceled task but by some other concurrent process. So I think we need to add FL_ACCESS check in nfs4_locku_done and skip locks_lock_inode_wait() executing if this flag is set.
