Revert "SUNRPC: Don't allow waiting for exiting tasks"

2025-09-06T20:51:26+00:00

This reverts commit 14e41b16e8cb677bb440dca2edba8b041646c742. This patch breaks the LTP acct02 test, so let's revert and look for a better solution.

SUNRPC: Don't allow waiting for exiting tasks

2025-03-28T20:37:57+00:00

Once a task calls exit_signals() it can no longer be signalled. So do not allow it to do killable waits. Reviewed-by: Jeff Layton Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust

SUNRPC: Prevent looping due to rpc_signal_task() races

2025-02-19T21:45:24+00:00

If rpc_signal_task() is called while a task is in an rpc_call_done() callback function, and the latter calls rpc_restart_call(), the task can end up looping due to the RPC_TASK_SIGNALLED flag being set without the tk_rpc_status being set. Removing the redundant mechanism for signalling the task fixes the looping behaviour.

SUNRPC: Fix a race to wake a sync task

2024-07-18T14:49:12+00:00

We've observed NFS clients with sync tasks sleeping in __rpc_execute waiting on RPC_TASK_QUEUED that have not responded to a wake-up from rpc_make_runnable(). I suspect this problem usually goes unnoticed, because on a busy client the task will eventually be re-awoken by another task completion or xprt event. However, if the state manager is draining the slot table, a sync task missing a wake-up can result in a hung client. We've been able to prove that the waker in rpc_make_runnable() successfully calls wake_up_bit() (ie- there's no race to tk_runstate), but the wake_up_bit() call fails to wake the waiter. I suspect the waker is missing the load of the bit's wait_queue_head, so waitqueue_active() is false. There are some very helpful comments about this problem above wake_up_bit(), prepare_to_wait(), and waitqueue_active(). Fix this by inserting smp_mb__after_atomic() before the wake_up_bit(), which pairs with prepare_to_wait() calling set_current_state().

SUNRPC: Don't change task->tk_status after the call to rpc_exit_task

2023-05-19T20:50:05+00:00

Some calls to rpc_exit_task() may deliberately change the value of task->tk_status, for instance because it gets checked by the RPC call's rpc_release() callback. That makes it wrong to reset the value to task->tk_rpc_status. In particular this causes a bug where the rpc_call_done() callback tries to fail over a set of pNFS/flexfiles writes to a different IP address, but the reset of task->tk_status causes nfs_commit_release_pages() to immediately mark the file as having a fatal error.

SUNRPC: remove the maximum number of retries in call_bind_status

2023-04-19T21:06:02+00:00

Currently call_bind_status places a hard limit of 3 to the number of retries on EACCES error. This limit was done to prevent NLM unlock requests from being hang forever when the server keeps returning garbage. However this change causes problem for cases when NLM service takes longer than 9 seconds to register with the port mapper after a restart. This patch removes this hard coded limit and let the RPC handles the retry based on the standard hard/soft task semantics.

SUNRPC: Add a helper to allow pNFS drivers to selectively cancel RPC calls

2022-10-06T13:52:09+00:00

Add the helper rpc_cancel_tasks(), which uses a caller-defined selection function to define a set of in-flight RPC calls to cancel. This is mainly intended for pNFS drivers which are subject to a layout recall, and which may therefore want to cancel all pending I/O using that layout in order to redrive it after the layout recall has been satisfied.
