Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] nfsd: fix return error code for nfsd_map_name_to_[ug]id
Date: Mon, 22 Dec 2025 14:30:05 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251222193005.1492196-3-cel@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251222193005.1492196-1-cel@kernel.org>
From: Anthony Iliopoulos <ailiop@suse.com>
idmap lookups can time out while the cache is waiting for a userspace
upcall reply. In that case cache_check() returns -ETIMEDOUT to callers.
The nfsd_map_name_to_[ug]id functions currently proceed with attempting
to map the id to a kuid despite a potentially temporary failure to
perform the idmap lookup. This results in the code returning the error
NFSERR_BADOWNER which can cause client operations to return to userspace
with failure.
Fix this by returning the failure status before attempting kuid mapping.
This will return NFSERR_JUKEBOX on idmap lookup timeout so that clients
can retry the operation instead of aborting it.
Fixes: 65e10f6d0ab0 ("nfsd: Convert idmap to use kuids and kgids")
