Subject: [PATCH 6.1.y 1/5] SUNRPC: remove timeout arg from svc_recv()
Date: Tue, 8 Sep 2026 20:25:07 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260909002511.725380-1-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <2026090350-comment-projector-6988@gregkh>
From: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
[ Upstream commit c743b4259c3af2c0637c307f08a062d25fa3c99f ]
Most svc threads have no interest in a timeout.
nfsd sets it to 1 hour, but this is a wart of no significance.
lockd uses the timeout so that it can call nlmsvc_retry_blocked().
It also sometimes calls svc_wake_up() to ensure this is called.
So change lockd to be consistent and always use svc_wake_up() to trigger
nlmsvc_retry_blocked() - using a timer instead of a timeout to
svc_recv().
And change svc_recv() to not take a timeout arg.
This makes the sp_threads_timedout counter always zero.

[ Stable backport note: The svc_recv timeout cleanup is unrelated to the
follow-up fix and does not fit the older lockd service loop. Drop those
hunks. Instead, make the existing svc request allocation/free helpers
private, move svc_rqst_free() before its first use, and convert the
scratch page to a folio. This aligns the lifetime-management context so
the follow-up fix applies cleanly. ]
[ sashal: Reduced backport -- upstream c743b4259c3af touches 9 file(s), this
backport carries 2. Not backported here:
fs/lockd/svc.c
fs/lockd/svclock.c
fs/nfs/callback.c
fs/nfsd/nfssvc.c
include/linux/lockd/lockd.h
include/linux/sunrpc/svcsock.h
net/sunrpc/svc_xprt.c
This note is generated from the file lists only; see the resolution record
for the reasoning. ]
