Subject: 3.18.1: broken directory with one file too many
g
(please CC: for followups)
I just spent two hours trying to untangle a *weird* bug that I have not
seen before. It might be new to 3.18.x but I don't know for sure.
Apologies in advance for the long prelude but I figured I need to
describe the problem scenario as precisely as possible.
All this is on freshly baked 3.18.1 with Gentoo userland; the exported
filesystem is ext4.
On my NFS server I work with a git repo:
holger>git clone ../work/kernel-patches.git
Cloning into 'kernel-patches'...
done.
holger>cd kernel-patches
holger>git status
On branch master

Looking fine!
On my NFS client this directory is automounted via NFS:
holger>mount | grep home
tux:/home/holger on /mnt/tux/holger type nfs (rw,noatime,tcp,sloppy,vers=4,addr=192.168.100.222,clientaddr=192.168.100.128)
This has worked for ages and never caused any problems.
Let's see how my git repo is doing:

There is a "rogue" file messing up the directory?!
This used to work until I added a specific file, so..

I can move it back into 3.14/ and the directory is messed up again.
All this is reproducible, in different export directories.
Any ideas what this might be? A direntry hash collision maybe?
There is a large number of files starting with btrfs-2014xxyy-.. but with
the typical kernel patch names (some quite long), so that would be pretty
bad. Also everything works locally on ext4 without problems, so I suspect
it's an isolated NFS problem.
Things that did not work - same results every time:
- dropping caches on client & server
- restarting NFS on client & server
Any suggestions welcome; I'll gladly test patches.
thanks
Holger
