Hi folks (Chuck/Jeff specifically), We've had this outstanding kernel oops that happens (infrequently) in copy_offload testing (stack trace in the end). I've been trying to debug it for a while, added printks and such. I can hand-wavey explain what I'm seeing but I need help (a) nailing down exactly the problem and (b) get a helpful hint how to address it? Ok so what happens. Test case: source file is opened, locked, (blah-blah destination file), copy_notify to the source server, copy is done (src dest), source file unlocked (etc dest file), files closed. Copy/Copy_notify, uses a locking stateid. When unlocking happens it triggers LOCKU and FREE_STATEID. Copy_notify stateid is associated with the locking stateid on the server. When the last reference on the locking stateid goes nfs4_put_stateid() also calls nfs4_free_cpntf_statelist() which deals with cleaning up the copy_notify stateid. In the laundry thread, there is a failsafe that if for some reason the copy_notify state was not cleaned up/expired, then it would be deleted there. However in the failing case, where everything should be cleaned up as it's supposed to be, instead I see calling to put_ol_stateid_locked() (before FREE_STATEID is processed) which cleans up the parent but doesn't touch the copy_notify stateids so instead the laundry thread runs and walks the copy_notify list (since it's not empty) and tries to free the entries but that leads to this oops (since part of the memory was freed by put_ol_stateid_locked() and parent stateid)?. Perhaps the fix is to add the nfs4_free_cpntf_statelist() to put_ol_stateid_locked() which I tried and it seems to work. But I'm not confident about it.
