[ Upstream commit dce2630c7d ]
There are 2 comments in the NFSv4 code which suggest that
SIGLOST should possibly be sent to a process. In these
cases a lock has been lost.
The current practice is to set NFS_LOCK_LOST so that
read/write returns EIO when a lock is lost.
So change these comments to code when sets NFS_LOCK_LOST.
One case is when lock recovery after apparent server restart
fails with NFS4ERR_DENIED, NFS4ERR_RECLAIM_BAD, or
NFS4ERRO_RECLAIM_CONFLICT. The other case is when a lock
attempt as part of lease recovery fails with NFS4ERR_DENIED.
In an ideal world, these should not happen. However I have
a packet trace showing an NFSv4.1 session getting
NFS4ERR_BADSESSION after an extended network parition. The
NFSv4.1 client treats this like server reboot until/unless
it get NFS4ERR_NO_GRACE, in which case it switches over to
"nograce" recovery mode. In this network trace, the client
attempts to recover a lock and the server (incorrectly)
reports NFS4ERR_DENIED rather than NFS4ERR_NO_GRACE. This
leads to the ineffective comment and the client then
continues to write using the OPEN stateid.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
