Subject: [PATCH v3 2/5] NFSD: Fix the "is this a solo SEQUENCE" predicate
Date: Fri, 10 Oct 2025 09:56:20 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251010135623.1723-3-cel@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251010135623.1723-1-cel@kernel.org>

From: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com>

RFC 8881 Section 2.10.6.4 says:

> If sa_cachethis or csa_cachethis is TRUE, then the replier MUST
> cache a reply except if an error is returned by the SEQUENCE or
> CB_SEQUENCE operation (see Section 2.10.6.1.2).

This text also appears in RFC 5661. Further, Section 2.10.6.1.2
says:

> Any time SEQUENCE or CB_SEQUENCE returns an error, the sequence ID
> of the slot MUST NOT change. The replier MUST NOT modify the reply
> cache entry for the slot whenever an error is returned from
> SEQUENCE or CB_SEQUENCE.

NFSD caches the result of solo SEQUENCE operations, but rtm's
reproducer sends two operations in the failing COMPOUND. NFSD should
not attempt to cache the reply.

The logic in nfsd4_is_solo_sequence() is incorrect: it checks the
current operation index, not the total count of operations in the
COMPOUND. If the SEQUENCE operation, which is always operation 1,
fails in a multi-operation compound, resp->opcnt is always 1. Thus
when a SEQUENCE operation fails, nfsd4_is_solo_sequence() always
returns true.
