From 8ac092519ad91931c96d306c4bfae2c6587c325f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Trond Myklebust Date: Mon, 23 Jan 2017 22:44:12 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] NFSv4.1: Fix a deadlock in layoutget We cannot call nfs4_handle_exception() without first ensuring that the slot has been freed. If not, we end up deadlocking with the process waiting for recovery to complete, and recovery waiting for the slot table to drain. Fixes: 2e80dbe7ac51 ("NFSv4.1: Close callback races for OPEN, LAYOUTGET...")
