The patch titled knfsd: Fix two problems that can cause rmmod nfsd to die has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename is knfsd-fix-two-problems-that-can-cause-rmmod-nfsd-to-die.patch This patch was probably dropped from -mm because it has now been merged into a subsystem tree or into Linus's tree, or because it was folded into its parent patch in the -mm tree. ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: knfsd: Fix two problems that can cause rmmod nfsd to die From: NeilBrown <neilb@xxxxxxx> Both cause the 'entries' count in the export cache to be non-zero at module removal time, so unregistering that cache fails and results in an oops. 1/ exp_pseudoroot (used for NFSv4 only) leaks a reference to an export entry. 2/ sunrpc_cache_update doesn't increment the entries count when it adds an entry. Thanks to "david m. richter" <richterd@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> for triggering the problem and finding one of the bugs.
