A crash was reported where the nr_client field was NULL during an upcall
to the nfsuserd daemon. Since nr_client == NULL only occurs when the
nfsuserd daemon is being shut down, it appeared to be caused by a race
between doing an upcall and the daemon shutting down.
By inspection two races were identified:
1 - The nfsrv_nfsuserd variable is used to indicate whether or not the
daemon is running. However it did not handle the intermediate phase
where the daemon is starting or stopping.
This was fixed by making nfsrv_nfsuserd tri-state and having the
functions that are called during start/stop to obey the intermediate
state.
2 - nfsrv_nfsuserd was checked to see that the daemon was running at
the beginning of an upcall, but nothing prevented the daemon from
being shut down while an upcall was still in progress.
This race probably caused the crash.
The patch fixes this by adding a count of upcalls in progress and
having the shut down function delay until this count goes to zero
before getting rid of nr_client and related data used by an upcall.

FreeBSD
FreeBSD is an operating system used to power modern servers, desktops, and embedded platforms. A large community has continually developed it for more than thirty years. Its advanced networking, security, and storage features have made FreeBSD the platform of choice for many of the busiest web sites and most pervasive embedded networking and storage devices.
