I just posted this patch: https://review.gerrithub.io/411347 to address the
use of the global fd for getattr/setattr. This has caused concern by various
users.
I also thought of an API change we could make that could help things. In NFS
v4, there will be GETATTR calls after I/O which may have used a stateid,
however, the GETATTR itself does not use the stateid. We could still fetch
the state_t and have an option of passing that on the GETATTR if available.
That would then allow use of the state_t file descriptor instead of opening
the temporary file descriptor when we already have a state_t file descriptor
that would work just fine for the getattr. That API could also be utilized
if I ever get around to coding up a search for lock or share state for NFS
v3 I/O.
