PYNFS LOCK20 Blocking Lock Test Case

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I believe this test case is wrong, relevant text from RFC:

Some clients require the support of blocking locks. The NFSv4
protocol must not rely on a callback mechanism and therefore is
unable to notify a client when a previously denied lock has been
granted. Clients have no choice but to continually poll for the
lock. This presents a fairness problem. Two new lock types are
added, READW and WRITEW, and are used to indicate to the server that
the client is requesting a blocking lock. The server should maintain
an ordered list of pending blocking locks. When the conflicting lock
is released, the server may wait the lease period for the first
waiting client to re-request the lock. After the lease period
expires, the next waiting client request is allowed the lock.

Test case:

    # Standard owner opens and locks a file
    fh1, stateid1 = c.create_confirm(t.word(), deny=OPEN4_SHARE_DENY_NONE)
    res1 = c.lock_file(t.word(), fh1, stateid1, type=WRITE_LT)
    check(res1, msg="Locking file %s" % t.word())
    # Second owner is denied a blocking lock
    file = c.homedir + [t.word()]
    fh2, stateid2 = c.open_confirm(b"owner2", file,
                                   access=OPEN4_SHARE_ACCESS_BOTH,
                                   deny=OPEN4_SHARE_DENY_NONE)
    res2 = c.lock_file(b"owner2", fh2, stateid2,
                       type=WRITEW_LT, lockowner=b"lockowner2_LOCK20")
    check(res2, NFS4ERR_DENIED, msg="Conflicting lock on %s" % t.word())
    sleeptime = c.getLeaseTime() // 2
    # Wait for queued lock to timeout
    for i in range(3):
        env.sleep(sleeptime, "Waiting for queued blocking lock to timeout")
        res = c.compound([op.renew(c.clientid)])
        check(res, [NFS4_OK, NFS4ERR_CB_PATH_DOWN])
    # Standard owner releases lock
    res1 = c.unlock_file(1, fh1, res1.lockid)
    check(res1)
    # Third owner tries to butt in and steal lock second owner is waiting
for
    # Should work, since second owner let his turn expire
    file = c.homedir + [t.word()]
    fh3, stateid3 = c.open_confirm(b"owner3", file,
                                   access=OPEN4_SHARE_ACCESS_BOTH,
                                   deny=OPEN4_SHARE_DENY_NONE)
    res3 = c.lock_file(b"owner3", fh3, stateid3,
                       type=WRITEW_LT, lockowner=b"lockowner3_LOCK20")
    check(res3, msg="Grabbing lock after another owner let his 'turn'
expire")

Note that the RFC indicated the client has one lease period AFTER the
conflicting lock is released to retry while the test case waits 1.5 lease
period after requesting the blocking lock before it releases the conflicting
lock...

Am I reading things right?

Thanks
