According to the investigation performed by Jacob Shivers at Red Hat, cifs_lookup and cifs_readdir leak EAGAIN when the user session is deleted on the server. Fix this issue by implementing a retry with limits, as is implemented in cifs_revalidate_dentry_attr. Reproducer based on the work by Jacob Shivers: ~~~ $ cat readdir-cifs-test.sh #!/bin/bash # Install and configure powershell and sshd on the windows # server as descibed in # https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/administration/openssh/openssh_overview # This script uses expect(1) USER=dude SERVER=192.168.0.2 RPATH=root PASS='password' function debug_funcs { for line in $@ ; do echo "func $line +p" > /sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control done } function setup { echo 1 > /proc/fs/cifs/cifsFYI debug_funcs wait_for_compound_request \ smb2_query_dir_first cifs_readdir \ compound_send_recv cifs_reconnect_tcon \ generic_ip_connect cifs_reconnect \ smb2_reconnect_server smb2_reconnect \ cifs_readv_from_socket cifs_readv_receive tcpdump -i eth0 -w cifs.pcap host 192.168.2.182 & sleep 5 dmesg -C } function test_call { if [[ $1 == 1 ]] ; then tracer="strace -tt -f -s 4096 -o trace-$(date -Iseconds).txt" fi # Change the command here to anything appropriate $tracer ls $2 > /dev/null res=$? if [[ $1 == 1 ]] ; then if [[ $res == 0 ]] ; then 1>&2 echo success else 1>&2 echo "failure ($res)" fi fi } mountpoint /mnt > /dev/null || mount -t cifs -o username=$USER,pass=$PASS //$SERVER/$RPATH /mnt test_call 0 /mnt/ /usr/bin/expect << EOF set timeout 60 spawn ssh $USER@$SERVER expect "yes/no" { send "yes\r" expect "*?assword" { send "$PASS\r" } } "*?assword" { send "$PASS\r" } expect ">" { send "powershell close-smbsession -force\r" } expect ">" { send "exit\r" } expect eof EOF sysctl -w vm.drop_caches=2 > /dev/null sysctl -w vm.drop_caches=2 > /dev/null setup test_call 1 /mnt/ ~~~ Signed-off-by: Thiago Rafael Becker <trbecker@gmail.com> Acked-by: Ronnie Sahlberg <lsahlber@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steve French <stfrench@microsoft.com>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
