The NFSv4.1 protocol does not allow it to retransmit unless the connection breaks. What I am saying above is bogus. As far as I can see, If one callback request is splitted into two sk_buffs, the function xs_tcp_read_callback will be called two times with the same rpc_xprt and the same xid. If between the two calls there is another call with the same rpc_xprt, but different xid, we consider it is another callback request from the same server, in the condition that there is no retransmission in our enviorenment. But this might not happen because there is only one callback slot in each server. > >> If one callback request is splited in two sk_buffs, xs_tcp_read_callback >> will be execute two times.

This is a multi-threaded/process environment which can support multiple connection. It is a bug to use a static variable. I think I have misunderstood the question. Here a static variable can not be used. Perhaps, we should define a variable for each rpc_client (or rpc xprt). > > -- > Trond Myklebust > Linux NFS client maintainer > > -- > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-nfs" in > the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
