Hi,
There seems to be a deadlock between
nfs4_op_setclientid/nfs4_op_setclientid_confirm and reap_hash_table.
nfs4_op_setclientid takes the lock on client_record->cr_mutex first and
then goes ahead and takes a read-write lock on the hash table partition as
part of nfs_set_client_id_insert or remove_unconfirmed_client_id.
However, the order is reversed in reap_hash_table. Here's the code snippet
191 if (client_rec != NULL)
192 inc_client_record_ref(client_rec);
193 PTHREAD_MUTEX_unlock(&client_id->cid_mutex);
194 if (client_rec != NULL)
195 PTHREAD_MUTEX_lock(&client_rec->cr_mutex);
196
197 PTHREAD_RWLOCK_unlock(&ht_reap->partitions[i].lock);
198 nfs_client_id_expire(client_id, false);
As we can see, it takes lock on cr_mutex on line 195 and releases the lock
on hash table partition on line 197.
Can we do the ht partition unlock before taking lock on cr_mutex?
Thanks,
Sriram
