nfs: fix a deadlock in nfs client initialization
The following deadlock can occur between a process waiting for a client to initialize in while walking the client list during nfsv4 server trunking detection and another process waiting for the nfs_clid_init_mutex so it can initialize that client: Process 1 Process 2 --------- --------- spin_lock(&nn->nfs_client_lock); list_add_tail(&CLIENTA->cl_share_link, &nn->nfs_client_list); spin_unlock(&nn->nfs_client_lock); spin_lock(&nn->nfs_client_lock); list_add_tail(&CLIENTB->cl_share_link, &nn->nfs_client_list); spin_unlock(&nn->nfs_client_lock); mutex_lock(&nfs_clid_init_mutex); nfs41_walk_client_list(clp, result, cred); nfs_wait_client_init_complete(CLIENTA); (waiting for nfs_clid_init_mutex) Make sure nfs_match_client() only evaluates clients that have completed initialization in order to prevent that deadlock. This patch also fixes v4.0 trunking behavior by not marking the client NFS_CS_READY until the clientid has been confirmed.
