From: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 789ce196a31dd13276076762204bee87df893e53 ] There is no need to take down the whole system for these assertions. I'd rather not attempt a heroic save here, as some bug has occurred that has left the transport data structures in an unknown state. Just warn and then leak the left-over resources. Acked-by: Christian Brauner <brauner@xxxxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: NeilBrown <neilb@xxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@xxxxxxxxxx> --- I've hit this BUG at home when restarting the nfs-server service and while that didn't bring the whole system down it did kill a thread with the nfsd_mutex lock held, making exportfs & other related commands all hang in unkillable state trying to grab the lock. So this is purely selfish so that this won't happen again next time I upgrade :-) I'd like to say I have any idea why the bug hit on that 6.6.42 (the sv_permsocks one did) and help with the underlying issue, but I honestly didn't do anything fancy and don't have anything interesting in logs (except the bug itself, happy to forward it if someone cares); would have been possible to debug this if I had a crash dump but it's not setup on this machine and just having this down to WARN if probably good enough...
