Test is copying to nfsv4 so that's the immediate suspect.
WARN_ON is in unmount of ext4, but I suspect that nfs
was loop mounted for the test.
FWIW, nfsd_proc_create() looks very suspicious.
nfsd_create_locked() does end_creating() internally (internal API change)
but nfsd_create_locked() still does end_creating() regardless.
Oliver,
Can you test this handwritten change or need a patch/branch for testing:
diff --git a/fs/nfsd/nfsproc.c b/fs/nfsd/nfsproc.c
index 28f03a6a3cc38..35618122705db 100644
--- a/fs/nfsd/nfsproc.c
+++ b/fs/nfsd/nfsproc.c
@@ -407,6 +407,7 @@ nfsd_proc_create(struct svc_rqst *rqstp)
/* File doesn't exist. Create it and set attrs */
resp->status = nfsd_create_locked(rqstp, dirfhp, &attrs, type,
rdev, newfhp);
+ goto out_write;
} else if (type == S_IFREG) {
dprintk("nfsd: existing %s, valid=%x, size=%ld\n",
argp->name, attr->ia_valid, (long) attr->ia_size);
Thanks,
Amir.
