Subject: Re: [PATCH 3/3] smb: client: retry compound request without reusing lease
Patch 2 of this patch series
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-cifs/20240209131552.471765-2-meetakshisetiyaoss@gmail.com/
aims to fix a customer reported bug by reusing lease key in unlink,
rename and set_path_size compound operations on the smb client. The
bug, its implications and reproduction has been described in the
commit message of the patch. In short, unlink, rename and
set_path_size operations can cause the server to send lease breaks to
the same client, on the same connection which hurts performance.
The aim is to have a fix in place for this problem without regressing
existing behaviour. Also, the proposed changes should go in smaller
batches so that they can be backported with relative ease. Patch 2
regressed a few operations on hardlinks (eg., xfstests generic 002,
013). As per MS-SMB2, lease keys are associated with the file name.
Linux cifs client maintains lease keys with the inode. If the file
has hardlinks, it is possible that the lease for a file be wrongly
reused for an operation on the hardlink or vice versa. In these
cases, the mentioned compound operations fail with
STATUS_INVALID_PARAMETER.
A simple fix for the regressions would be to have a two-phased
approach and resend the compound op request again without the lease
key if STATUS_INVALID_PARAMETER is received. This would help patch 2
fix the original issue. Fix(es) for the hardlink-leasekey problem can
come in the next batch.
Thanks
