Subject: [PATCH] NFSv4: don't set SETATTR for O_RDONLY|O_EXCL
Date: Thu, 30 Jul 2015 13:00:56 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20150730130056.541f1a5e@noble> (raw)
It is unusual to combine the open flags O_RDONLY and O_EXCL, but
it appears that libre-office does just that.
[pid 3250] stat("/home/USER/.config", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0700, st_size=8192, ...}) = 0
[pid 3250] open("/home/USER/.config/libreoffice/4-suse/user/extensions/buildid", O_RDONLY|O_EXCL <unfinished ...>
NFSv4 takes O_EXCL as a sign that a setattr command should be sent,
probably to reset the timestamps.
When it was an O_RDONLY open, the SETATTR command does not
identify any actual attributes to change.
If no delegation was provided to the open, the SETATTR uses the
all-zeros stateid and the request is accepted (at least by the
Linux NFS server - no harm, no foul).
If a read-delegation was provided, this is used in the SETATTR
request, and a Netapp filer will justifiably claim
NFS4ERR_BAD_STATEID, which the Linux client takes as a sign
to retry - indefinitely.
So only treat O_EXCL specially if O_CREAT was also given.
