SUNRPC: avoid soft lockup when transmitting UDP to reachable server.
Prior to the commit identified below, call_transmit_status() would handle -EPERM and other errors related to an unreachable server by falling through to call_status() which added a 3-second delay and handled the failure as a timeout. Since that commit, call_transmit_status() falls through to handle_bind(). For UDP this moves straight on to handle_connect() and handle_transmit() so we immediately retransmit - and likely get the same error. This results in an indefinite loop in __rpc_execute() which triggers a soft-lockup warning. For the errors that indicate an unreachable server, call_transmit_status() should fall back to call_status() as it did before. This cannot cause the thundering herd that the previous patch was avoiding, as the call_status() will insert a delay. Fixes: ed7dc973bd91 ("SUNRPC: Prevent thundering herd when the socket is not connected") Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Anna Schumaker <Anna.Schumaker@Netapp.com>
