A problem observed for some clients is that the list of nfs_server->delegations can grow unweildy, leading to the clients spinning in tight loops walking across delegations that have been marked revoked. These two patches attempt to solve that problem by using the result of FREE_STATEID to clean up the list of delegations which keeps that list pruned to an operable size. Changes on v2: - dropped the first patch which was unnecessary - add the FREED_STATEID case to nfs41_test_and_free_expired() Benjamin Coddington (1): NFSv4: Allow FREE_STATEID to clean up delegations fs/nfs/delegation.c | 25 ++++++++++++++++++------- fs/nfs/nfs4_fs.h | 3 +-- fs/nfs/nfs4proc.c | 12 ++++++------ include/linux/nfs4.h | 1 + 4 files changed, 26 insertions(+), 15 deletions(-) -- 2.47.0
