Agreed. I see no need to optimize an error case here. Any performance
hit that we'd get here is almost certainly acceptable in this
situation. The main thing is that we prevent the ESTALE from bubbling
up into userland if we can avoid it by retrying.
No, I didn't have the test for this anymore unfortunately. RHQA might
have one though.
Either way, I cooked one up that does this on the server:
#!/bin/bash
while true; do
rm -rf foo
mkdir foo
echo foo > foo/bar
usleep 100000
done
...and then this on the client after mounting the fs with
lookupcache=none and noac.
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
int fd;
while(1) {
fd = open(argv[1], O_RDONLY);
if (fd < 0) {
if (errno == ESTALE) {
printf("ESTALE");
return 1;
}
continue;
}
close(fd);
}
return 0;
}
I did see some of the OPEN compounds come back with NFS4ERR_STALE on
the PUTFH op but no corresponding ESTALE error in userland. So, this
patch does seem to do the right thing.
