If there are some mount points(not exported for nfs) under pseudo root,
after client's operation of those entry under the root, anyone *can't*
unmount those mount points until export cache expired.

# cat /etc/exports

I don't think that's user expect, they want umount /nfs/test/.

It's caused by exports cache of nfsd holds the reference of
the path (here is /nfs/test/), so, it can't be umounted.

The patch site using fs_pin instead of mntget for export cache,
user at nfs server can unmount any mount points includes exported
for nfs. Maybe, only umounted for unexported mount points is better?

Thanks for this patch.  It looks good!

My only comment on the code is that I would really like to see a
"path_get_pin()" and "path_put_unpin()" rather than open coding:

> +	dget(item->ek_path.dentry);
> +	pin_insert_group(&new->ek_pin, item->ek_path.mnt, NULL);

and 

> +		dput(key->ek_path.dentry);
> +		pin_remove(&key->ek_pin);


But the question you raise is an important one:  Exactly which filesystems
should be allowed to be unmounted?
This is a change in behaviour - is it one that people uniformly would want?

The kernel doesn't currently know which file systems were explicitly listed
in /etc/exports, and which were found by following a 'crossmnt'.
It could guess and allow the unmounting of anything below a 'crossmnt', but I
wouldn't be comfortable with that - it is error prone.

mountd does know what is in /etc/exports, and could tell the kernel.
For the expkey cache, we could always use path_get_pin.
For the export cache (where flags are available) we could use path_get
or path_get_pin depending on some new flag.

I'm not really sure it is worth it.  I would rather the filesystems could
always be unmounted.  But doing that could possibly break someone's work
flow.  Maybe.

Or maybe I'm seeing problems where there aren't any.

Anyone else have an opinion?

Thanks,
NeilBrown

The undisputed bug here was negative cache entries preventing unmount.
So most conservative might be just to purge negative entries.

Otherwise, the only guarantees I think we've really had is that we won't
allow unmount if you hold any actual state on the filesystem (NLM locks,
NFSv4 locks, opens, or delegations).

If a filesystem is exported but no clients hold state on it, then it's
currently mostly chance whether the unmount succeeds or not.  So we're
probably free to change the behavior in this case.  I'd be inclined to
allow the unmount, but haven't thought this through carefully.

It could also be useful to have the ability to force an unmount even in
the presence of locks.  That's not a safe default, but an
"allow_force_unmount" export option might be useful.

We might similarly be able to add some way for the kernel to distinguish
explicit exports from crossmnt-found exports, but I'm not seeing the use
case for that.

I'd like this,
if the cache is valid, user should not be allowed to umount the filesystem.

Those resources hold the reference of vfsmnt.

If client mount a nfsserver succeed without holds state, 
nfs server umounts the exported filesystem, 
client also think the filesystem is valid, but it is umounted.

Agree, I don't think we needs that right now.

This is no different from "exportfs -au" being run on the server, thus
unexporting the filesystem and making in unavailable to the client, even
though the client has it mounted.

I think we need to give the server admin control of their filesystems, and
assume they won't do something that they don't really want to do.

We already have a mechanism to forcibly drop any locks by writing some magic
to /proc/fs/nfsd/unlock_{ip,filesystem}.  I don't think we need any more.

No, I don't think so.
If user using "exportfs -au" to flush caches, I think he known
what the influence of he does, but an umount of filesystem, 
maybe he doesn't known that contains flushing nfsd's exports cache.

For an using of nfsd exports, I'd like an error of an umount,
because I don't realize the exports for nfsd.

I also think nfsd should allowing umount of unexported filesystem,
because user has the right to umount it.

No, I don't agree.
If there are locks (eg, LOCKs/DELEGATIONs/LAYOUTs) exist, nfsd should not allows
user umounting of the filesystem, maybe client is process those files.
We shouldn't clean those information for they are controlled by expire time.

People do sometimes want that even when state's held.

The case I've seen is migration of individual exports (or sets of
exports) on shared block storage, using a floating IP--I think the
sequence is: shut down the new server, move the floating IP to the new
server, then unexport and unmount on the old server, then mount on the
new server, export, and restart the new server.

Or maybe they really just want to unmount something and don't mind
client applications erroring out.

Yeah, I remember thinking this sort of approach would have advantages,
maybe I was wrong, I need to revisit it.

The unlock_{ip,filesystem} approach requires temporarily shutting down
mountd, doesn't it?

Not necessarily.
It does require ensuring that new locks aren't suddenly taken though.

I imagine an early step in the migration process is to "ifconfig down" the
virtual interface with the floating ID.  Then you can safely "unlock" and
unmount any filesystems are that only accessed via the IP.

But you are right that using the "unlock_*" interface and then unmounting is
racy in a way that we are trying to make "unmount" not racy.  So maybe an
"allow_force_unmount" would have a place.

Thanks,
NeilBrown

No, unlock_{ip,filesystem} are used for nlmlock, doesn't support nfsv4 resources.
Some other interfaces under /sys/kernel/debug/nfsd/forget_* support nfsv4 resources,
without for an filesystem. It seems will be removed sometime.

I still prefer the "allow_force_unmount" option, but maybe we should
also fix unlock_{ip,filesystem} to deal with nfsv4.  (Though I think
it's a little less well-defined there due to the possibility of
trunking.)

We definitely don't want people to depend on those for anything other
than testing clients.

I don't think they'd be practical for this use.  forget_client comes the
closest, but you'd have to figure out the ip address of every client you
want to forget.  If there's a risk people might try to really use that,
then maybe we should go for scarier warnings and/or remove that
particular interface.
