When using Kerberos with v4.20, I've observed frequent connection loss on heavy workloads. I traced it down to the client underrunning the GSS sequence number window -- NFS servers are required to drop the RPC with the low sequence number, and also drop the connection to signal that an RPC was dropped. Bisected to commit918f3c1fe8("SUNRPC: Improve latency for interactive tasks"). I've got a one-line workaround for this issue, which is easy to backport to v4.20 while a more permanent solution is being derived. Essentially, tk_owner-based sorting is disabled for RPCs that carry a GSS sequence number. Fixes:918f3c1fe8("SUNRPC: Improve latency for interactive ...

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.
