From 6221f1d9b63fed6260273e59a2b89ab30537a811 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Chuck Lever Date: Fri, 17 Apr 2020 12:40:31 -0400 Subject: SUNRPC: Fix backchannel RPC soft lockups Currently, after the forward channel connection goes away, backchannel operations are causing soft lockups on the server because call_transmit_status's SOFTCONN logic ignores ENOTCONN. Such backchannel Calls are aggressively retried until the client reconnects. Backchannel Calls should use RPC_TASK_NOCONNECT rather than RPC_TASK_SOFTCONN. If there is no forward connection, the server is not capable of establishing a connection back to the client, thus that backchannel request should fail before the server attempts to send it. Commit 58255a4e3ce5 ("NFSD: NFSv4 callback client should use RPC_TASK_SOFTCONN") was merged several years before RPC_TASK_NOCONNECT was available. Because setup_callback_client() explicitly sets NOPING, the NFSv4.0 callback connection depends on the first callback RPC to initiate a connection to the client. Thus NFSv4.0 needs to continue to use RPC_TASK_SOFTCONN.
