Hi,

When testing NFSv4 at RHEL6 with kernel 2.6.32, I got a kernel panic at NFS client's __rpc_create_common function.

The panic place is:
rpc_mkpipe

    __rpc_lookup_create()          <=== find pipefile *idmap*
    __rpc_mkpipe()                 <=== pipefile is *idmap*
      __rpc_create_common()
       ******  BUG_ON(!d_unhashed(dentry)); ******    *panic*

It means that the dentry's d_flags have be set DCACHE_UNHASHED, but it should not be set here.

Is someone known this bug? or give me some idea?

A reproduce program is append, but it can't reproduce the bug every time.
the export is: "/nfsroot *(rw,no_root_squash,fsid=0,insecure)"

And the panic message is append.

	((LOOPCOUNT += 1))

	mount -t nfs4 127.0.0.1:/ /mnt|| return 1;
	ls -l /var/lib/nfs/rpc_pipefs/nfs/*/
	umount /mnt
	echo $LOOPCOUNT

done

Hi,

The panic place is:
rpc_mkpipe

    __rpc_lookup_create()          <=== find pipefile *idmap*
    __rpc_mkpipe()                 <=== pipefile is *idmap*

       ******  BUG_ON(!d_unhashed(dentry)); ******    *panic*

It means that the dentry's d_flags have be set DCACHE_UNHASHED, but it should not be set here.

Is someone known this bug? or give me some idea?

the export is: "/nfsroot *(rw,no_root_squash,fsid=0,insecure)"

The test is wrong: we can find ourselves with a hashed negative dentry here if the idmapper tried to look up the file before we got round to creating it.

Just replace the BUG_ON() with a d_drop(dentry).

Hi Willy et al,

Please consider

beb0f0a9fba1 kernel panic when mount NFSv4, 2010-12-20

for application to kernel.org's 2.6.32.y and 2.6.34.y trees. The patch was applied upstream during the 2.6.38 merge window, so newer kernels don't need it.

(Context: <http://bugs.debian.org/695872>.) Tom Downes (cc-ed) experienced the bug on a Debian kernel close to 2.6.32.58 and confirmed that the patch doesn't seem to hurt.

The patch is part of Fedora 13's 2.6.34-based and Fedora 14's 2.6.35-based kernels[1]. It was also included in the RHEL kernel at some point between 2.6.32-71.29.1.el6 and 2.6.32-131.0.15.el6[2].

Thoughts of all kinds welcome, as always.

Jonathan

Hi Willy et al,

Please consider

beb0f0a9fba1 kernel panic when mount NFSv4, 2010-12-20

for application to kernel.org's 2.6.32.y and 2.6.34.y trees. The patch was applied upstream during the 2.6.38 merge window, so newer kernels don't need it.

Thank you for all the details, as always :-)

I'm queuing this patch for 2.6.32.61.
