When sosend() replies ERESTART in the client side krpc, it indicates that the RPC message hasn't yet been sent and that the send queue is full or locked while a signal is posted for the process. Without this patch, this would result in a RPC_CANTSEND reply from clnt_vc_call(), which would cause clnt_reconnect_call() to create a new TCP transport connection. For most NFS servers, this wasn't a serious problem, although it did imply retries of outstanding RPCs, which could possibly have missed the DRC. For an NFSv4.1 mount to AmazonEFS, this caused a serious problem, since AmazonEFS often didn't retain the NFSv4.1 session and would reply with NFS4ERR_BAD_SESSION. This implies to the client a crash/reboot which requires open/lock state recovery. Three options were considered to fix this: - Return the ERESTART all the way up to the system call boundary and then have the system call redone. This is fraught with risk, due to convoluted code paths, asynchronous I/O RPCs etc. cperciva@ worked on this, but it is still a work in prgress and may not be feasible. - Set SB_NOINTR for the socket buffer. This fixes the problem, but makes the sosend() completely non interruptible, which kib@ considered inappropriate. It also would break forced dismount when a thread was blocked in sosend(). - Modify the retry loop in clnt_vc_call(), so that it loops for this case for up to 15sec. Testing showed that the sosend() usually succeeded by the 2nd retry. The extreme case observed was 111 loop iterations, or about 100msec of delay. This third alternative is what is implemented in this patch, since the change is: - localized - straightforward - forced dismount is not broken by it. This patch has been tested by cperciva@ extensively against AmazonEFS. Reported by: cperciva Tested by: cperciva MFC after: 2 weeks |

For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information).
The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree. See build(7) and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables.
The buildkernel and installkernel targets build and install
the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of
the Makefile in this directory for more information on the
standard build targets and compile-time flags.
Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process. See build(7), config(8), and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html for more information.
Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the
buildkernel and installkernel targets, you might need to build
world before. More information is available in the handbook.
The kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf
sub-directory. GENERIC is the default configuration used in release builds.
