Without this patch, the xid used for the client side krpc requests over UDP was initialized for each "connection". A "connection" for UDP is rather sketchy and for the kernel NLM a new one is created every 2minutes. A problem with client side interoperability with a Netapp server for the NLM was reported and it is believed to be caused by reuse of the same xid. Although this was never completely diagnosed by the reporter, I could see how the same xid might get reused, since it is initialized to a value based on the TOD clock every two minutes. I suspect initializing the value for every "connection" was inherited from userland library code, where having a global xid was not practical. However, implementing a global "xid" for the kernel rpc is straightforward and will ensure that an xid value is not reused for a long time. This patch does that and is hoped it will fix the Netapp interoperability problem. PR: 245022 Reported by: danny@cs.huji.ac.il MFC after: 2 weeks |
