cover Skipped unlocks

Well over a year ago I made other attempts to fix the problem of NFS failing to send an unlock when signalled. Those attempts were terrible.

Here's another, smaller version that keeps two simple fixes and splits out the behavior for waiting on I/O completion to be different for the v3 and v4 case. For v4, we can easily ensure the unlock is always sent by having the rpc_task perform the wait. For v3, that approach would require significant changes to the way NLM works, so a simpler approach of skipping the wait is used as was suggested by Trond.

I think this is probably a little late for 4.11. Comments and review are welcomed.

NFS4: remove a redundant lock range check
NFS: Move the flock open mode check into nfs_flock()
locks: Set FL_CLOSE when removing flock locks on close()
NFS: Always wait for I/O completion before unlock

PATCH 2/4 NFS: Move the flock open mode check into nfs_flock()

In reply to Benjamin Coddington

We only need to check lock exclusive/shared types against open mode when flock() is used on NFS, so move it into the flock-specific path instead of checking it for all locks.

PATCH 3/4 locks: Set FL_CLOSE when removing flock locks on close()

In reply to Benjamin Coddington

Set FL_CLOSE in fl_flags as in locks_remove_posix() when clearing locks. NFS will check for this flag to ensure an unlock is sent in a following patch.

PATCH 4/4 NFS: Always wait for I/O completion before unlock

In reply to Benjamin Coddington

NFS attempts to wait for read and write completion before unlocking in order to ensure that the data returned was protected by the lock. When this waiting is interrupted by a signal, the unlock may never be sent, and messages similar to the following are seen in the kernel ring buffer:

[20.167876] Leaked locks on dev=0x0:0x2b ino=0x8dd4c3:
[20.168286] POSIX: fl_owner=ffff880078b06940 fl_flags=0x1 fl_type=0x0 fl_pid=20183
[20.168727] POSIX: fl_owner=ffff880078b06680 fl_flags=0x1 fl_type=0x0 fl_pid=20185

For NFSv3, the missing unlock will cause the server to refuse conflicting locks indefinitely. For NFSv4, the leftover lock will be removed by the server after the lease timeout.

This patch fixes this for NFSv3 by skipping the wait in order to immediately send the unlock if the FL_CLOSE flag is set when signaled. For NFSv4, this approach may cause the server to see the I/O as arriving with an old stateid, so, for the v4 case the fix is different: the wait on I/O completion is moved into nfs4_locku_ops' rpc_call_prepare(). This will cause the sleep to happen in rpciod context, and a signal to the originally waiting process will not cause the unlock to be skipped.
