This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled nfsd: Retry once in nfsd_open on an -EOPENSTALE return to the 5.10-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: nfsd-retry-once-in-nfsd_open-on-an-eopenstale-return.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.10 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit b2e7882026e462c6a2fe7f2ab2e60fa25eebea01 Author: Jeff Layton <jeff.layton@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sat Dec 18 20:37:56 2021 -0500 nfsd: Retry once in nfsd_open on an -EOPENSTALE return [ Upstream commit 12bcbd40fd931472c7fc9cf3bfe66799ece93ed8 ] If we get back -EOPENSTALE from an NFSv4 open, then we either got some unhandled error or the inode we got back was not the same as the one associated with the dentry. We really have no recourse in that situation other than to retry the open, and if it fails to just return nfserr_stale back to the client.
