Subject: [PATCH v1 03/36] NFS: Use nlmclnt_rpc_clnt() helper to retrieve nlm_host's rpc_clnt
Date: Thu, 18 Dec 2025 15:13:13 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251218201346.1190928-4-cel@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251218201346.1190928-1-cel@kernel.org>

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

The external API definitions for lockd reside in linux/lockd/bind.h.
Because "struct nlm_host" is an internal lockd structure, bind.h
does not include a definition of it. Dereferencing that structure
outside of lockd violates the layering boundary between NFS and
lockd.

The proper approach is to use the nlmclnt_rpc_clnt() helper function
already provided in lockd/bind.h, which retrieves the NLM host's
struct rpc_clnt without exposing internal lockd structures. This
maintains clean separation between the NFS client and lockd
internals.

Note that the nlm_host's h_rpcclnt field can be NULL during
initialization (host.c:141) or after cleanup (host.c:629). Add a
NULL check before calling shutdown_client() to prevent a potential
NULL pointer dereference in the sysfs shutdown path.
