Commit 4281bfec3628 patched the server so that the callback session slot would be free'd for reuse when a callback attempt fails. However, this can often result in the sequence# for the session slot to be advanced such that the client end will reply NFSERR_SEQMISORDERED. To avoid the NFSERR_SEQMISORDERED client reply, this patch negates the sequence# advance for the case where the callback has failed. The common case is a failed back channel, where the callback cannot be sent to the client, and not advancing the sequence# is correct for this case. For the uncommon case where the client's reply to the callback is lost, not advancing the sequence# will indicate to the client that the next callback is a retry and not a new callback. But, since the FreeBSD server always sets "csa_cachethis" false in the callback sequence operation, a retry and a new callback should be handled the same way by the client, so this should not matter. Until you have this patch in your NFSv4.1/4.2 server, you should consider avoiding the use of delegations. Even with this patch, interoperation with the Linux NFSv4.1/4.2 client in kernel versions prior to 5.3 can result in frequent 15second delays if delegations are enabled. This occurs because, for kernels prior to 5.3, the Linux client does a TCP reconnect every time it sees multiple concurrent callbacks and then it takes 15seconds to recover the back channel after doing so.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory.
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.
